Rain reactive street graphics

I have talked here previously about snow advertising and interactive concrete poetry. Now here are street graphics that react to rain and appear when the pavement is wet. They disappear when the sun comes out again. By Fresh Green Ads.

Love Japan poster at ACT Responsible in Cannes

The Love Japan poster is also featured in the May issue of Designnet Magazine Korea and will be in the June issue of Latempestad Magazine Mexico. Latest fundraising initiatives include tote bags and bracelets. More soon.

Apple i-pad

Tablet computers have been around for quite a while. They are a very specific niche market. The Apple iPad did not exactly break ground with the concept. However, they did break ground by having a massive array of applications readymade to utilize a tablet computer. As well as this, it was also able to handle 3G connections for roaming Internet virtually anywhere you can get a 3G signal (in later models). While it may be cheaper for someone to just buy a notebook – and give you some greater functionality – it may not be as user friendly or accessible for some people.
