Branded QR Codes – Takashi Murakami and Louis Vuitton

Chungaiz — Tue, 21 Apr 2009 10:51:06 +0000

I’ve always wondered why QR codes were so ugly in and of themselves. Sure they can deliver interesting in-depth marketing collateral to fans via their mobile phones, but they’re just so off brand in themselves given the way they look. Trust Takashi Murakami and Louis Vuitton to push that boundary.

Whilst still in the early stages of the Gartmore Hype curve (ahem) over in the UK, it makes more sense that the educated Far Eastern market would be able to explore better visual communications of QR technology. I guess we’ve got a long way to go before we could even being to incorporate a QR code into the look and feel of the, for example, drinks can or album cover artwork.

Charlie Brooker’s Newswipe

Charlie Brooker’s take on the news. The first episode is well worth a look, much in the style of his previous series ‘screenwipe’ (or at least some of the better episodes of that…) – taking an irreverent look at the daily doomsday peddling machine that is the news… (i hate myself for having written that sentence). pointing the finger at, amongst other things, the too often employed ‘news metaphors’ which, in most cases, are utterly superfluous as well as completely lacking explanatory power – is observational comedy at its best. pure gold.
