Proximity BBDO
As from tomorrow I'll be working for Proximity BBDO, formerly known as Atmosphere. They are part of the BBDO Worldwide group. I'd like to note that this blog will stay my personal online scrapbook as it has always been, there will be no connection between the strategy and vision of BBDO what-so-ever, in other words, my point of view stated on the blog is will not always be the same as the one the company strives for. Off course it would not be in place to go against their visions in public. I find that more than natural as I will be part of there organisation and team in the future. I will be working there as Online Art Director focussing mostly on online and interactive projects. I take great pride in the fact that Proximity BBDO trusts me for taking on this new challenge, that's why I'll freeze all future freelance activities from now on. Off course I'll finish current projects. I'll focus on my illustrative work after hours, and get a french and AS3 course.
Going to Copenhagen
Yes, I do love a week without blogging as well. Taking on some heavy evenings of partying in Copenhagen eased my mind for the next few weeks. Danmarks most famous buildings and architectural landmarks were a nice daytime job and beautifull sunsets were the perfect interlude a few rough nights in Copenhagens bars and pubs. I took on a whole loth of imagery while recovering from various evenings that filled my belly with Tuborg and Carlsberg Special.
Go check them flicks out at my newest Flickr-set on Copenhagen.

Vormplus webtools
Vormplus webtools is a basic set of scripts, adding lots of functionallity to TextWrangler. A really popular texteditor. With these tools you can start handcoding XHTML and CSS at the speed of a rocket.
No pricetag attached
Vormplus Webtools is free... And it’s open source, released under the Apache 2.0 License. I made these tools to be more productive when coding XHTML and CSS. You’ll probably like ‘em too…
Less typo’s, better code
“Writing” XHTML tags has never been easier. Just double-click the
right tag on the scripts palette. Vormplus Webtools will insert the tag in your document. You’ll probably never forget to close a tag again.
Easy browsertesting

Since there last web-release Stella Artois is known for it's highly sophisticated interactive video-and-3D "game-experiences". (Remember that weird invention-wheel where you had to decipher and remember code and clicks) Now it is back with a brand new campaign, Discover the world in 1366, Le Courage. "La Bouteille" is one lovely lady's wish or one man's undying quest. Fully drawing a motion picture card for this new interactive story, LOWE WORLDWIDE proves his expertise on a supreme level.
Le Courage is the latest interactive invention, you are challenged to the quest of the world in 1366
1. First you have to Save the hops from falling off the edge of the world, balance the world (tip: use your mouse and move from left to right)
2. Then scare the dark and evil spirits away by lighting the candle again (tip: click em flying lights) - there's some very cool effects of dark shades in this section.
3. Next is saving the harvest from the wrath of the Gods, watch the clouds closely (tip: click the barrel left-side under the middle)
4. The Battle of good versus evil is to scare away the evil spirit before it can drink or steal the beer (tip: awake the guards and shout very loud :) )
5. This one found rather hard, prevent the sun from setting in the water and drowning the boat (tip: move the sun by touching the screen very hard!! not too hard off course)
If you fail all the precious beer is lost!
Make the stars fall and bring good spirits of perfection to the night the beer is finished.
The beer is brewed, a star is born.. You deserve a Stella!
This was really a cool online experience, Matt, thanks and congrats!
Btw did y'all know that you can get a Stella in allmost every pub and club in NewYork?

A blind call
A brand new campaign for the support of the "League for blind people", adresses people to program "A Blind Call" as the first number in your cellphone.
(name = A Blind Call; number = 070 22 22 60)
I used to insert my voicemailnumber there under A+ voicemail, that way every time I'd accidently call my first number I'd call my voicemail.
No more bothering Alain or Angelo in the middle of the night, or at a dawning moment returning from a party... all thanks to blind people.

The Lady
She's hot. She knows it. She's got mad skills and awesome ideas but always points her concepts to a female audience. If the assignment was to design a new urinal, she'd find a way to gear it toward the girls. Pretty sexist huh? Not so fast. This chickie is ahead of many who don't understand who their user is or even why it's an important thing to comprehend. Sure, she gets a little extreme at times, but she designs for a defined user, which is an important step in the design process that can help immensely in creating effective solutions.

Sitooterie
This small outdoor retreat of aluminum punctured by 5,000 tubes derives its name from the Scottish pronunciation of the words sit out. The square, hollow tubes, also of aluminum, are capped with transparent orange acrylic. Each tube points to the exact center of the structure, so a single light source can illuminate them all. They also serve a structural purpose, supporting the whole building like a bed of nails.
