I want one.
Today I went to Birmingham with the rest of the 'Psalt Design' team to Birmingham to blow a new batch of 'Bubble Tanks'. We borrowed a 'GoPro HD Hero 2' video camera from a mate so we could shoot some of the days events. We will be editing this soon and put it up to view and some of the footage is pretty good. I now think I need to invest in one of these badass cameras because there are awesome!

Liked this.
Found this on Bored Panda. Loads of good advertising stuff on it and easy to lose track of time when trawling.

What Happens When You Give Thousands of Stickers to Thousands of Kids?
Artist Yayoi Kusama set up this installation at the Gallery of Modern Art in Brisbane and gave thousands of stickers to young visitors. The room was initially kitted out with locally sourced furniture and then painted white to create a 'blank canvas'. The kids were then set free in the room to transform it into a completely different space. I think it worked pretty well... and am now craving some skittles.
Have a little look at Yayoi Kusamas site.

Nice advertisement.
I saw this advert tonight and thought it was pretty cool, especially the bit with the sliced red cabbage.
