Passionland

It’s been really busy and exciting since our 2nd anniversary, or should we call it Passion Trip. Me and my team at Octodesign Interactive has been busy working on 4 exciting projects (with really close deadline), and it’s not easy working under excitement, because I want all this to turned out to be perfect, so I paid really close attention to the detail while everything goes in parallel. Salute to all the supporting team abroad, they’re all very good at what they’re doing!

One of the exciting projects in the pipeline is the long awaited Octovate.com. Yes, as you might all knew we’re now having only 1 paged website, but it’ll soon be changed, so stay tuned. A little spoil to the project, we’re going to experiment with AJAX, webstandard and SPRY. Ooo… it’s going to be technically sexy!

This whole thing isolate me from “what’s going on out there?”, so tonight I decided to take my time and surf around and here are some nice found:

• Rubrik Revolution - Remember the cube with various colors to each side, the one you have to flip on to get the same color in each side, meet the revolution.
• 2008 Calendar from Pentagram is in store.
• Make my logo bigger cream, a nice viral by agency fusion. Dang! I just realized I just had a professional experience with this.
• Flash can handle 3D.
• And a presentation from Jorge Calleja of W+K on Get the Glass Campaign.

Whew… off to bed :)

Here we go, a light-weight post, something from my storage room.
This thing might be just a toy, but the way they present it, is quite mind blowing. The cyborg theme, character design and wooden material they used also not to forget to mention the crafting, make the piece feels like something new and fresh. Nice work from Take-G Toy’s, damn Japanese they did it again.

This one is my favorite *hint hint*.
