Experimental Gameplay Project
March 15, 2005Read more
A bunch of Carnegie-Mellon students in the school’s Entertainment Technology Center have a great idea: make 50 to 100 games in one semester, taking no more than a week per game, to (1) Create a novel interaction and (2) develop a goal to be accomplished using that interaction. Why? It’s their thesis that “complexity doesn’t necessarily equal fun”. Well, that’s for sure.
They have a website with some of the games for download, along with a small introductory video. It’s a neat idea, to create a catalog of interesting interactive mechanisms. It reminds me a bit of the Orisinal site.
Thanks to Jeremy for the link!

Counterfeit Minis
March 14, 2005Read more
I saw this site mentioned in a “consumer alert” while watching the History Channel…it’s pretty funny, especially if you’re a fan of Mini Coopers old and new.
Doing a little digging, I found the site is one of those guerilla ad campaigns designed to generate some buzz. The site even links to a fake “Mini4Auction” site trafficking in counterfeit minis. It’s pretty funny. The agency is Crispin, Porter, and Bogusky.

A Dynasty of Yucky Food
March 12, 2005Read moreI was at the grocery store and saw some Wasabi Mayonnaise, from Dynasty. I immediately imagined the rich taste of mayonnaisse kicked up with the heady pungency of wasabi. Thus inspired, I dropped the $3.69 on it with high expectations.
