MINI Clubman: The Other View by Ami Kealoha

Flashmobs might be so five years ago, but MINI's latest campaign to promote the new Clubman, (i.e. "the other mini"), adopts the concept for an online series of videos. Starting tomorrow, 28 September 2007, at 4pm BST, they will release a weekly 15-second surrealist interpretation of an everyday event that will only be available on The Other View site for one minute—if you enter three seconds in, you will see the video three seconds in.

Air times are irregular so to help you not miss it, they came up with this clock widget that counts down the time in seconds until each video begins. It's a clever way of taking viral to the next level and from the sneak peaks we've seen so far, there's some art direction worth watching the widget for.

Like the PC version, Backblaze continuously monitors files for changes and uploads them to an offsite server. Though the...
Muji's Message
As longtime Muji fans, we were pleasantly surprised on a recent visit to see they've updated the site with a message expressing their tenets of true design. For a retailer that normally keeps to themselves, allowing their simply classic products to speak volumes in place of flashy marketing campaigns, it's a thoughtful marketing change. We're happy to see they haven't altered their philosophy, as this...
