Admin: March 2008 Archives

As soon as post one went up, the flood gates opened. We've had students, programmers, artists, and more send us some really great creative. That is really awesome, so bear with us as we get some of this stuff posted.

Thanks to Domestic Sifu for submitting this!

The Speed Museum sponsored a billboard contest where designs could be submitted, registered users vote, and the winning billboard is displayed outside the Speed Museum for the month of March. The contest required participants to find five of ten billboards designed by Flavia Da Rin and placed around Louisville.

Each billboard displayed a keyword needed to unlock the I Spy Speed site to allow users to upload their own designs. Displayed is the winning billboard.

You can see the winners at I Spy Speed, just choose the Top Three Winners.

Here is a shot we found on The Ville Voice. Another great local blog we highly recommend.

We have it cropped here, so be sure to check out the whole thing. View full size here.

Here is what The Ville Voice had to say:

"You've got to hand it to those clever folks at Doe Anderson, we assume, for this clever Maker's Mark billboard..." Read the post

   It might be a few years old, but it still is making an impact apparently.

With video becoming ever so popular on the web, it is not surprising that we are seeing many people become famous for their YouTube videos. I can't help but think of the classic "Chocolate Rain", by Tay Zonday. Wow, that was definitely weird, but yet compelling for some unknown reason. So intriguing to the masses that even Dr. Pepper took a spin on it.

So what goes into making a video popular? Just doing it? Is that enough? Maybe. Hell, it's worth a shot. I guess you really don't know until you try.

Meet Wil, a guy who has been popping up a lot here in Louisville lately. A comedian? An entrepreneur? An actor? A musician? I'm not entirely sure. However it seems pretty cool that people are making the effort to get noticed on their own time and dime as opposed to the 'pipe dream' of making it big in Hollywood.

This was recently seen on 37Flood and was created by Circle One Design. In the future we will try and post events before they actually happen. You can view the whole piece here.

Five0Two.com is a new initiative to help promote the arts in Louisville. Bill Green illustrated the Hunter piece you see above.

I expect to see a lot more illustration from this crew. We'll keep you posted on here.

Doe Anderson launched their new website. Congratulations guys! Getting enough free time to do your own site can sometimes be quite the challenge.

Here is a larger preview of the piece.

Sushi is great. I love it all year long actually. I am sorry to say I missed this one though. I heard it went quite well.
