Got forwarded this by good pal @frasiocht, a great video digging into the science of motivation and why so many smart, highly skilled individuals put so much time and effort into things that are given away free, such as Linux and Wikipedia.
Conceptual and creative thinking is inspired by 3 factors once you pay people fairly and get money out of the way, autonomy, mastery and purpose.
Fascinating stuff.
Birdbox is quite simply, an iPhone application that turns your phone into a Birdbox, with added alarm functionality. When the alarm goes off, the clock face disappears to reveal birds nesting along with chirping audio to wake you.
Finally some skins for phones that don’t make you look like you’re carrying around a lump of Play-Doh. The two above are my favourite picks.
The prices are pretty cheap too at around $14.
Brands should give these sorts of things out at events rather than pens and mouse mats.

Check this out, Tokyo-based creative agency SET has developed this sexy looking QR code using artwork from Takashi Murakami to promote the work that the two have done together. The code sends you to this site.

What better way to pay tribute to MJ then by creating an Eternal Moonwalk made from thousands of videos sent in by Internet users. The directions for the video are simple, moonwalk in from the right, exit from the left. The site then pieces the videos together to keep that badass moonwalk going.
Nike did this 3 years ago with an online campaign called ‘The World’s Longest Soccer Chain‘ (no longer online) as part of Joga Bonito. Read More
This caught my eye walking down Oxford Street last week, liking the new circus style theme they have on the Selfridges store front at the moment.
Spotted this in Fulham a few days ago and took the snap on my mobile, at first I thought it might be a copycat but if you look closer it’s flying CCTV cameras and an archer trying to shoot them down, probably a deep message in there somewhere.
