Last Friday Catherine collected a silver Event Award at the National History Museum for the best outdoor/public event in recognition of our work on the T-Mobile World Cup Fan Park last summer.
That's a very pleased looking Catherine in the middle with client Will and Adele from Birmingham City Council. Our first award and a very nice feeling it is too.
Saw a lot of screens like this during a recent return trip to Dubai.
It's amazing how much you come to rely on flickr, youtube et all - especially when putting a pitch together. A fact you are only made aware of when they are unavailable.
Another one of those 'isn't the web great for finding old stuff that I've really wanted to see for ages' posts.
This time it's the very wonderful K Foundation film of them burning a million quid. Never got to any of the original screenings and as far as I am aware it was never widely available on video. So seeing the whole thing in all it's glory was a bit like finding a long lost treasure. Very strange feeling whatching them mechanically destroy all that cash.
It does make me wonder how much more of an impact they would have made if all the web based sharing tools we have now had been available to their twisted minds...
A simple solution to an age old problem, I really hope it functions as well as these pictures suggest. I believe the designers name is Jonathan Aspinall, but I haven't been able to find a site for him or any information on production / purchase.
Had a bit of sleepless night and found myself in front of YouTube very early this morning watching this..
Now I'm not really into skate boarding and freely admit to knowing very little about it, but I have always admired Rodney Mullen and this 'best of' clip shows why. He just seems to do things differently from everyone else, each trick leaves you trying to work out what happenend and some of the slow motion stuff blows your mind.
Not content with bringing back some rather wonderful biscuits Guy C has been recreating his Ibizian voyage with the help of Radio Sonica.
Apparently they provided the soundtrack to his holiday and thanks to 24 hour streaming via itunes they have been providing uplifting moments to one and all at Flourish HQ.
A pleasing mix of all things baleric with an anything goes playlist and a distinct lack of spoken content makes the station very listenable. The site also has some on the money mixes available for download.
Well Guy C outdid himself this time, after his two week sojurn on the white island he returned to Flourish HQ armed with these little babies...
A fine selction of all things almond (which seems to be a bit of a running theme in Spanish confectionary - see earlier BOTW posts). My personal favourite was the long tube type thing - a great dunker that remains crispy even after a good soaking in coffee.
The packaging wasn't quite as beautiful as other offerings in the series but boy did they taste good.
