Swiffer Subway Car

New campaign for Swiffer – covering cars in a wood pattern to remind riders Swiffer is effective at removing dust from wood. I think it’s an improvement on the usual cars actually…

Thanks Daily Exhaust for the heads-up.

PJ Killing it Some More

PJ is at it again, this time with an effort in design as well as flash. Of course, only the slickest PV3D was employed to bring this interactive magazine cover time-line to life. On a day when the rest of the interwebs are caught up in Jordan Fever, I just want to point out that there’s another very slick, very cool PV3D project dropping. Kudos to PJ and the Sarkissian Mason team.

T-Shirt Idea

When I was in Argentina I saw this on a T-Shirt. And for some reason I STILL can’t fathom, passed up buying one for everyone back home. Someone please make this into a T-shirt – a nice screen print.

I Had That Idea

A little while ago I was thinking of an interactive installation idea for the NYC Subway system that would place flat-screens on the ceiling of trains and, using GPS, would display the corresponding “looking up” view from the train’s exact location. To gain the footage of the “looking up” view, I thought a van with an ultra-wide angle lens mounted to the roof and pointing up, could drive the streets of NYC and catalog the video so that the individual train cars could access it based on their location. Well, it looks like Peliculas Ponder beat me to it with their beautiful Madrid Metro ad.

Spatial Information Hierarchy

Today’s FWA winner does a nice job of organizing information levels spatially. I know we’re all getting tired of papervision for papervision sake, but I would argue that utilizing it to organize information levels the way this site does could be extremely useful. I’m not sure how necessary it is for a digital design consultancy, as I don’t think their information hierarchy is all that complex, but I can see this execution being utilized for navigation large amounts of information with interrelations that span many levels – like live-sorting products of different categories and price-points (off the top of my head). Kudos to WhiteVoid for the slick execution and for getting my brain working so early in the morning.

Anyone Going?
