Here are some ideas that I found while reading the PSFK news. These are some key points form Jan Chipchase‘s presentation at Good Ideas Salon. Read the carefully as they might help you. And I’m not talking about communication people.

• Keys, money, and a cellphone are the three most important things that people will carry with them. This puts cellphones in the category or items required for survival.
• Universities don’t always turn out the best researchers. Chipchase always ensures that those traveling with him have the mental and emotional capacity to support their ‘book intelligence’ with ’street intelligence’.
• Global brands effect spaces in which those  brands have not reached. An example of Afghanistan’s very own Kabul Friend Chicken was given, wherein the same logo and brand colors were used for a restaurant mimicking the fast-food chain.
• There will be a generation of people that will have their entire life translated into data. This data will be fed into services and products that attempt to guarantee their satisfaction and personalized relevancy.
• Limitations spawn innovation
• The cone of uncertainty is also the cone of opportunity
• Interesting does not mean relevant
• History is not absolute
• Everyone has a story to tell, but not always a space to tell it
• Human behavior changes slowly

Christmas is coming. I need to think about cool presents for my friends but being on a crisis budget, I’ll have to be truly inventive and original. For my dear friend G, I wish I could buy this The Kymera Magic Wand. Like Harry Potter’s   It comes packaged in a  “faux dragonhide box line with Chinese silk brocade”. Well, it can be programmed for 13 gestures, like a remote control, either for your presentations or for your DVD player

From here

Sometimes Facebook can hide very cool stuff. If you have the eye to see them. Today Ivory Skies ran into me, digitally speaking, on Facebook. The interesting part is that he makes tshirts inspired from ancient mythology graphics. My favorite: The Diana of Ephesians (actually, I’ll buy this one )

There are not so many designs but check the shop regularly And they deliver to Romania, as well

Ce-mi plac mie oamenii care isi cumpara GPS. Multi dintre ei sunt sigur aia care au picat testul de cercetas, testele de geografie, sunt clar barbati pentru ca nu citesc indicatoarele si nici nu asculta de gagici “vezi ca am trecut de podul ala acum o ora dar daca n-ai ascultat cand ti-am zis sa faci stanga…..”

Pentru ca o excursie cu masina sa fie mult mai placuta decat “virati prima strada la stanga in 10 metri” (note to self: cum naiba imi dau seama cand au trecut aia 10 metri!??!?!), iata cum niste oameni destepti de marketing vor sa scoata bani de pe urma voastra introducand GPS-ul produs de TomTom cu vocea lui Homer Simpson. Tadaaaa! Aici aveti 2 sample-uri sa le ascultati si dupa aia sa scoateti banii din buzunar. Enjoy!

Love this jacket!

Dr Romanelli x Nike x Shelter

Cum ar fi ca la o geaca super simpla din bumbac sa ii faci manecile brodate cum sunt pernele cu motive unguresti din zona Corund? (de fapt, le gasiti mai peste tot in Ardeal pe marginea drumului; tin minte ca erau o multime la Oradea)  Tadaaa, idee.

Asta

Ca sa intelegeti mai bine, watch this!

Este al doilea an cand NikeSB colaboreaza cu cei de la Concepts pentru o editie super speciala de shoezi. Anul trecut visam la varianta rosie. Adica asta.

Fain conceptul.

PS: sunt de baieti, oricum, nah, am deja prea multe. Daaaaaar…nu strica niciodata una in plus

Nu mai stiu unde am vazut-o, pe NotCot sau pe Core77.

Connect The Dots Tattoo – E o idee geniala. Poti sa-ti faci orice tatuaj, doar ca numai tu stii ce reprezinta sau cine are rabdare sa se holbeze la tine sa inteleaga ca animal sau obiect semnifica punctele si cifrele.

O idee foarte misto

Telefonul care face cafea, printre altele. Check release date

E o adevarata frenezie cu trendul asta opzecist. Haine inspirate de atunci, disco is back, forme si texturi old school. Pe mine m-a lovit o chestie de dimineata, cand l-am vazut pe colegul meu cu o mustata super frsh aranjata (ieri nu-l vazusem).

Si de aici, haos. Recomand un intreg articol de la Uncoolhunter despre mustati. De la mustati celebre, de la idei de mustati pana la grafica mustacita. De la mustata lui Dali pana la Matthew McConaughey.

Daca nu stiati, in 2006 a fost lansat un documentar, “The Glorius Mustache Challenge“, urmarindu-l pe Jay Della Valle in demersul lui de a convinge cat mai multi tineti sa-si lase mustata pentru o luna.

Colac peste pupaza, am gasit la Atypyk creioane cu 5 mustati celebre

Si ca sa pastram tonul artistic, totusi, recomand sa va duceti la MNAC la expozitia lui Roman Tolici unde veti vedea, printre altele, o serie de 40 portrete celebre (denumita “Barbers Shop”), cunoscute pentru parul pe fata (mustati si barba) dar care capata o alte dimensiune cand sunt “expuse” publicului.

Iata o idee minunata pentru brainstormingurile cu creatia. Desenam cu drag impreuna Creat de Martin Sammer, e ca un set de post it-uri uriase de impartit cu colegii.
