My Virgin Cannes Lions Experience
I originally wrote this for my co-workers at Sapient, but I figured why not share it with the Stew, sorry if you don’t get some of the inside jokes.
Traveling usually leaves me inspired for one reason or another and I’ll try to turn that into something productive when I get back. This trip was [...]
Go Green apps | ECOBOT & Blackpixel
This Adobe Air app done by TAXI and onepixeloff is a simple “green” concept done well. Basically, it tracks your fuel, paper, and power consumption. It tracks your fuel consumption by picking up new wireless networks and asks you if you’re a gas-guzzling SUV or an eco-friendly biker, then adds it to your history. Power [...]
Insight 51 Installation

This banner is a pretty neat idea for VW where you can enter your Twitter handle into a banner. The banner then analyzes your twitter feed and based on your tweets recommends what VW is right for you. The concept is very simple, but similar to something we did a while back with comments on [...]
WE CHOOSE THE MOON
One thing i really love about digital technology is that sometimes it gives you the opportunity to experience something you would never normally have the chance to. AOL and the Martin Agency had a brilliant idea to celebrate the 40 years of us setting foot on the moon. The idea allows people on July 16, [...]
Chiat/High
Love when agencies aren’t afraid to have a little fun at work. Very funny video from our friends at Chiat. Most agencies would probably take this opportunity to tell some kind of story of how cool their agency is. But this video is a great example of how being cool has nothing to do with [...]

A stew is a dish that is compiled of a bunch of different ingredients. Something that is slowly prepared with lots spices and stirring. This blog represents the stew of digital tidbits that live inside our heads. Its a place to document the things that call our attention as consumers, and something to inspire our students in our class at Miami Ad School. Hope you brought a big spoon.
