MixShakePour: “Words”, a Video Poem

“This brilliant lexico-associative piece is a nice reminder that the three-minute web vid has real artistic potential.

It was made by Will Hoffman and Daniel Mercadante to accompany Radiolab’s Words episode.”

MixShakePour: Levi’s Go Forth Campaign

I love this campaign more than anything. My bestest friend in the world works for Levi’s corporate office so I got some insider information about it. I won’t divulge these insider tidbits, but it made me love this campaign and brand so much more.

I remember when I heard Walt Whitman’s “Pioneers! O Pioneers!” from Leaves of Grass being recited during this campaign… I was so deliriously happy.

Come my tan-faced children,

Follow well in order, get your weapons ready,
Have you your pistols? have you your sharp-edged axes?
Pioneers! O pioneers!

MixShakePour: A.A. Bondy, Mightiest of Guns

Love this!

Ok. I’m going to try to mix it up and stop posting folk songs. Leave me alone.

Read Howl, here. Brilliant.
