Uni Qlo Heat Tech Music Video (ft. The Drums)

By Chungaiz | Published: November 6, 2009

Interesting new piece of marketing communications from Uni Qlo – select your own song for this sound-reactive video to react to. I’ve chosen The Drums‘ most excellent Let’s Go Surfing. Not appropriate for heat-tech winter wear, but fuck it. The tune’s too awesome not to share. Embed your own music video from Uni Qlo here

Sure, Action Method Online is kind of a glorified project management tool – the sort that producers and PMs all over will be familiar with – [...]

StickyTwits – post your twitter name in the real world

By Chungaiz | Published: May 7, 2009

So StickyTwits was spotted by Springwise Trends who promote it as a niche but “fun example of entrepreneurs latching on to the latest buzz to launch a side business on the fly” and that’s all well and good, but it’s rather short sighted. Stickytwits isnt going to promote that [...]
