That would be an accurate reflection of 90% of my meetings. Actually that’s probably not true. Most of corporate America will say, ‘I’m sure Social Media is great for some brands. I get it, I’m cool. The fact that I don’t understand it and that terrifies me has nothing to do it. No, no, nothing.’

I saw the trailer to The Road last night - couldn’t find a clip that would allow me to embed so if you haven’t seen it watch it here. It was one of those moments when you go ‘wow, that looks nothing like the book’. But what does a book look like? For me ‘The Road’ was black and white, well, grey pretty much all the way through. But I guess that’s not going to make the big bucks at Hollywood. Shame.

rickwebb: ATP NY 2009 - 0142 (via lizstless) We noticed this too. It was almost as if the design brief for the whole place (Kushters, Upstate NY) was ‘do anything you want, just make sure none of it matches - and I mean NONE of it’.

Tangerine presents "Creating Digital Culture" - Eventbrite

Rick posted this before I could. One small point - the date is the 30th - not the 28th. Looking forward to it. No idea what we are going to talk about though.

rickwebb:

Hello. If you are in New York on Sept 28th, consider coming to this discussion I am involved in along with Hashem Bajwa of Droga5, James Cooper of Saatchi, Mike Geiger of Goodby, Matt Spangler and Taras Wayner of R/GA.

Also, apologies for letting my queue expire while I was away upstate rocking at All Tomorrow’s Parties. I will compensate with awesome pictures of The Flaming Lips and LASERS in the coming days.

Listening to Public Enemy on Spotify. I had always assumed that the first track on It Takes a Million.. - a live recording in London of the 87 tour - was just on my UK copy of the record. Maybe it’s on the US version too. Or maybe that tour - which was epic in the UK - was the pinnacle for them so they put it on everything. Sadly I don’t think anything other than ‘Fight the Power’ got close to the groove they had going on in 87/88/89.
