OK GO - new video for SKYSCRAPER

I am yet to see an OK GO video that didn't inspire, over deliver and break a beautiful mold.

Now there is a freakin' amazing song to go with their magnificient videos (their music is catchy... but this song is SEXY).... and I counted 18 wardrobe changes. Is this right?

Not to be missed:


And for an adorable little ditty for the young 'uns in your life, here is OK GO on Seseame Street.

Rotman Design Challenge 2012

It has been a long while since I've posted.
Grad school will do that to you.

I wanted to share a little OCADU Masters of Design in Strategic Foresight and Innovation genius.
It came second place at the Rotman Business Design Challenge. It lost by 2 points out of 500!!! OCADU also took 3rd place with a great initiative called Branch Out. The most important part of the process was the learning (it was awesome to go through this again) and that we won for the most disruptive innovation... which in the end is the real cherry on top.

See the 2nd place presentation here

and for more about the Rotman Design Challenge.

Here was the submission video. I look like a freakin' Mrs. Potatoe head.. but otherwise its fine :)
