Who knew milk would make you sexy?

When we got in from our trips to Pixar, Blue Bottle Coffee Company and St George Spirits yesterday we discovered gifts on our bed in the form of Muscle Milk. This protein shake is aiming to expand their market and attract new drinkers who wouldn't have considered a protein shake before. Muscle Milk came to Pereira & O'Dell for help and the guys have come up with a fantastic execution of the brand idea: "From...To..." - illustrating Muscle Milk's ability to transform your body shape when combined with your workout. The first execution uses Thanksgiving as a creative springboard and...

If you have some time there's a video of Raimo van...

The future then and now

A couple of days ago some ideas and images about the relationship between technology and the everyday life came to my mind while I was reading this interesting post from Ian Tait talking about those amazing technology related things that surround us on a daily basis, and we just don't care (or at least those things don't surprise us anymore). At that very moment I remembered this video made by the Post Office Research Labs in the 1960s and all the stories we usually hear from our parents and grandparents about how difficult was life in...
