: : Jay: Master of Chen-Style Kung Fu
Creative minds need to stay sharp. Hence, the “Master Chen Kung Fu Riddle” was created for BRC-ians to post brainteasers. One witty account exec solves each riddle moments after it is posted, leaving everyone else in the dust. The solution? He gets his own riddle now…something much harder than what everyone else must solve. Unfortunately, this only slows him down because he just solves both. The new goal for the office: finding a riddle to finally stump him.
: : love letters
A European auto manufacturer sent 30,000 letters out that were meant to look like they were from a secret admirer. The problem? They looked handwritten and gave little indication they were an advertisement. This resulted in hundreds of complaints from recipients whose spouses now thought they were having affairs. <<LINK>>
: : artist creates "emotional maps"
Artist Christian Nold uses a subjective method to create an emotional lanscape of a city. Actually, it's the emotions of his volunteers, who walk a town and get hooked up to a machine to measure their phyical reactions. An interesting use of existing tools to create a new form. <<LINK>>
