Lego has to be right up there on the “Most exciting brands to work on” list. Following the award winning “Go Miniman Go!” campaign, Pereira O’Dell just launched their latest batch of work - a short film entitled CL!CK (shown below) that leads users on to the LEGO CL!CK website which promises to provide tips, istories and inspiration to the Lego community.
Pereira O’Dell brings the community of Lego inventors, artists and fans together at Lego Click, an online destination that celebrates and fosters great ideas and problem-solving–or what the brand calls “Click” moments. The company’s first iPhone app, Lego Photo— which filters users’ photos into Lego-like pixels, jumpstarted the push.

Came across two really cool things from Google. The first is a presentation called “87 cool things, even a few from us“. It’s a presentation featuring some awesome new innovations, trends, technologies and just generally cool bits and pieces. Check it out.
From that I discovered Google’s new open source project called Google Wave. It’s simply described as “a new tool for communication and collaboration on the web”, but it’s soooo much more than that. Really worth checking out. Watch the hour-long presentation below, or click here for the easier and shorter about blurb.
Brock Davis is an artist and musician who works on primarily self-initiated projects in a variety of mediums. He currently serves as creative director at Carmichael Lynch where his work has won such accolades as the prestigious Cannes Lion award for creative excellence. Not limiting himself to advertising, Brock’s talents span music, drawing, graphic design, writing, works of art both serious and absurd, and a killer instinct for video games. The one constant is an exceptional track record for transforming humor and insights into work that gets a reaction.
I absolutely love his work. As I was browsing through the portfolio, I found myself constantly saying to myself “Why didn’t I think of that?!?!?!”. Really dig the wit and sense of humour he brings through his work, and love the simplicity of the ideas. His work really proves that the best ideas don’t need to be over-complicated and elaborate, and simplicity reigns supreme.

Just read a great short post from Seth Godin’s blog called “Things to ask before you redo your website“. Very basic but often overlooked questions that should always be asked before kicking off a redesign.
Check out am i collective’s latest work(s) of art - the Bare Project. See excerpt:
BARE! The am i collective’s latest project marries our motley in-house talents with a handpicked crop of outside artists to share in our vision – provoking boundary pushing art while helping others. We’ve prettied up the soon-to-be-famous, limited edition, 40cm-tall BAREs. Next we want to send these beasties to galleries in all corners of the world. Then we’ll auction them off, on line. Before finally donating all the proceeds to child welfare. Because BARE really cares about you. And the children.
Stonewall’s own Nicolas Rix took part and was also featured - see below.
