McLovin

Ok, so why on earth everyone in this cruel yet happy world should have a friend like McLovin. (if you don't know who McLovin is you might wanna watch the movie called "SuperBad")

here are my reasons why we should all have a friend like McLovin:

He is a legend
He is the firs Irish rapper
He is from Hawai, which means that you could learn surf with him
He is talent
He is a sexy bitch
He is not doing drugs
His face is idiot, but he still looks cool
He could have invented chocolate cake
He is somehow the best friend you ever had
and the oldest one.
He could easily claim that his Dad owns McDonalds, but he's still into biological fried vegetables.

what you want more?? F.O.

nice..

Intersitng stuff on you tube..

...

usually when you use ... while writing you like to mean something or leave some things into the sphere of fantasy, you actually talk about the future.

I don't know about you, but lately i started feeling a really bad aura everywhere, people seem to be afraid, they are insecure, not optimistic, while some others are still leaving in their own world (or pretend to do so) so other people start realizing that life is such a thin line, that actually god, or whoever is up there could play guitar with.
And i'm talking about life in all of it's aspects, great example is the ongoing crisis that's going on in our beautiful, yet filled with stupid people, planet.

the fear that comes out of media, the tough times that are about to come, find people hovering around a question mark, people think and think and then they think again.

Thinking actually never changed anything, it always take actions to do so. I'm not sure about what these actions are, but what i know well and it's one of my favourite things to believe, is when you're starting today what you plan for tomorrow, the chances of success are very big, getting ou there and creating realities becomes easy, and this is a fact.

Anyway there's not much of a point in what i'm writing in this post, i would say it's mainly things that live into my head, they keep flying up there...

Ok its been a while

Well, it's been a while since the last time, i spent some time in this blog. I know this sucks big time, since i keep trying to find some time for my little adsurd. No excuses, no work, no lack of time nothing. ZILCH. Yes Zilch, this is my new project, it's a bit hard to explain at the moment, it's just a random crazy thing that came into my mind some months ago and i think is one of the things you do just because you know that regreting it would be a great lesson.

Don't get me wrong, nothing to do with something against the law or totally extreme, but just the thought i think is so crazy that it might make me fight the world's economic crisis.

Ok i want say other bullshit. Hope everyone who still reads Adsurd is fine.

And i think it's time for some old inspirational post. Something like a blast from the past hah?

(i'm not saying i'm back, becuase i keep saying this and nobody listens to me anymore :D)

Ho-liday

Holidays are good. Food for thought, food for the new, rest, sea Greece and all the rest nice and beautiful things that make life sweet and nice :)

something different

This post has nothing to do with the usal posting policy that this blog fosters.

It's an observation and opinion or even an odde to my thoughs around the new realities of this lonely planet we live in.

Yesterday i read somewhere that Nelson Mandela, one of the world's last leaders, has turned 90.
However his age, this man's vision and power are still there, it might be fading out but we can feel that this is still there. In 2008 the messages we get from every corner of this planet are not encouraging for the future, poverty, hunger, expensive oil, paper wars and apathy of people to act is something i feel everyday.

People spend more time with themselves than ever, there is a new kind of Social Phobia that reflects to the popularity of the internet the increasing number of ipod addicted people ( i still don't have one ) and many more things that to me feel that we people are entering a self protection mode without seeing what's happening around us.

To me it seems like we are all in a banwagon without someone capable to steer it.
Leaders do not exist anymore, prime ministers are subject for Yellow press news. The strong leaders of the world with few exceptions are driven by their pockets and not their minds.

US it's an empire that's falling down. This is natural to me, if you look back in History every single empire had a beginning and an end. The need for a person that can make the diference is so easy to notice. Great example to this is mr. Obama he is a figure that inspires people, makes people think better and hope for a better future. This of course doesn't stays within the US borders, this goes to Iraq, goes to Guantanamo, goes to Europe, to Afghanistan, to Iran, to Russia, even in the head offices of Greenpeace, every one in this planet has expectations for something better. Usually this can be translated to one single man, one leader that can be trusted as an impartial arbiter of worlds affairs.

Don't get me wrong, this is not an Obama support article, it's more some thoughts to show that the world is in need of Charistmatic people that can lead, inspire, provoke,question and in the end make things better. I'm pretty sure that there are hundreds of Obama's out there that can change the world into a better place.

All these guys need to do is to roll up their sleeves (and the sleeves of their people) and set to work.


that's all some thoughts... of course unfinished as always :)

the poser above is a great example.

GWMA

DEAR dude who controls the global warming up there.
I'm writing to you regarding an observation of failure i noticed lately against you.
Actually i would like to point out that your famous "Global warming" is the biggest bullshit i've been hearing during the last couple of years.

I think you are one of the people who decided to global warm only the nice and already warm countries like Greece, Italy, Spain etc.

Of course your famous global warming somehow escaped countries like UK, Netherlands etc.

You offer them a cold summer with rain and other rather Global freezing weather conditions.

I think you are tempted of the nice blue seas these guys have in the south, and you keep pointing your stupid global warming to them.

This way my friend you want make people sensitive enough, nobody is goanna believe in global warming and sooner or later a Hollywood director will come up with a blockbuster that will simply bring up in fashion Global Freezing. When this happens guess what, you are done, nobody is going to talk about global warming anymore companies like Diesel will work on global freezing campaigns and American Apparel will range only long sleeve colored shirts, in addition to that Fujitsu,Lg,Mitsubishi,Sanyo etc will stop producing air conditioners and people will use sunscreens only to smell like coconuts.

Hope you understand my friendly intentions, but seriously you have to do something.
As immediate next steps i would suggest to bring some summer in the Northern Dark Cold and wet Europe
For instance nobody will suffer with a month under 25 and Sunny, and why not 2-3 weeks of 30-34 and sunny, this is probably the only way people will realize your presence and will stop thinking you are a lazy bastard who likes hanging around south warm places and make them even warmer.

Until these thing happen, i will run a campaign called: GLOBAL WARMING MY ASS.

Adsurd

Have you ever questioned how we make dreams real.
Have you ever looked so close into your eyes iris?
so close that you can see the other world that exists in every humans life.
This world who can turn zero to something. This world who can make the world go round.
This tiny artificial world that could make dreams reality.
Well that was something about dreams i guess.

Simple life

Life is so simple, big ideas are only simple. Simple things can change the world.
Don't know if that's tru don't know if that's going to happen, don't even know how cheesy this film looks like... one thing is that the thought is good and it proves that somewhere somehow a simple idea written in a blank piece of paper can change the world. :)

L for LOL

one of the coolest T-Shirts i've seen... see the picture above and make it.

In an imaginary world

Many times i just wonder what is others people imaginary world look like. Is it that strange abstract and surreal as mine. I remember once i had a discussion about Superpowers. Someone brought to the table the question:

If you could have a superpower, which super power would you prefer?

Obviously my answer was the power to fly.

Flying means:
You can dry your hair quickly
You can air your balls
you can travel for free
rescue people from falling (not sure about that)
make bungee jumping without a rubber holding your body
have the best view
play cloud hide n seek
sing love is in the air and make people actually believe you
produce 0 emissions (farting is excluded)
and many many other thing....

problem was that many people answered that they would like to read other people's minds... and to me that's weird... so this is why sometimes i wonder what's on others people's minds. But it wouldn't be nice if i knew that's like living in your imaginary world.

I know i know i suffer from Peter Pan syndrom.

Emir, Manu &Diego

Emir Kusturica, is one of the most talented directors that this world has the privilege to have. Emir, is premiering tonight his new movie Maradona.

Stolen from Wikipedia:

Maradona is a documentary on the life of Argentine footballer Diego Maradona, directed by the award-winning Bosnian filmmaker Emir Kusturica. The documentary will premiere at the Cannes Film Festival 2008, which will run May 14-25.

Emir has stated the following regarding the film:
“It is the first film that will treat all the aspects of the life of Maradona. The film will be very complex to make, because I want to show the true personality of Maradona. Football is a science of great mathematical precision ! The film ends when the former football player is in good health, and has no more addiction to drugs. The film will show "the three Maradonas" I've discovered during the shooting: the football teacher, the politically incorrect citizen against the unilateral politics of the USA and the family man. These three Diegos will be in the end of the film I will shoot in the Aztec Stadium in Mexico, where Diego scored one of his most famous goals, during the World Cup 1986 against the English team.

i just can't wait.

Emir, Manu & Diego are all three legends for me and i'm pretty sure that the result will be my favorite word

One Month ago.

One month ago i wrote my last post... it must have been sometime during the day of the 20th of April.. don't remember much about this day, i only remember that i wrote on this blog oh yes you can see it below.

How are you digital audience? how is your digital life going...what about the real life.... 1 minute ago i had no clue what i'm talking about but now i will just talk about the main reason that i don't have an ipod. I know that's totally random, but come on life's random.

To make the loooooong story short i only want to share with you my thinking behind my denial of not getting an ipod. Human relations and isolation is the main reason. Ipod kills the sounds of the city, the birds the cars the sound of the newspaper in the subway, the sound of the rain, even the sound of the car that is about to hit you while you are listening to the ipod. OK i don't have something with apple or ipod or mp3 players, it's just the fact that when i say people that i don't have an ipod their faces look at me like i'm a skyblue watermellon wearing a baseball cap. Well Guess What world, i'm real i'm ok and i don't have an ipod.

Totally Random post.

a nice day

At last after bringing out Totems, magic books, parying in a full moon, rading gospels and lot's of Abracatambra's the sun is out... the spring is here the mood gets better and that's all...
let's go out and chase the Sun...

Juanity

or Cabrality...
It's kinda weird but while some people are looking to get into other people's way some others simply make their own way. New ways are always provocative, and if you want my opinion, provocative is the middle name of Good Ideas.
One of these crazy dudes is Juan Cabral, most of you know already who he is so no need to make fancy introductions. What i like in the work of this guy is that has nothing to do with advertising, it encompasses Art in Advertising with a unique way.

So to make the long story short, this morning i saw the new Cadbury Ad which comes right after the Gorilla..


i said Hmmmmm.... hmmmmmm neaaaaa

then i wathced it again...

and again

and again


and then i just concluded to the Following:

This is not an Ad this is SOMETHING. And if we want to say that we live in 2008 then we have to say that Advertising is SOMETHING. Nothing more nothing less. Advertising is Something...
This is the reason i'm in this sexy thing, you can do whatever your mind thinks.
YOU CAN DO SOMETHING.

No KUDOS in the morning
KUDOS now.

tulibu dibu douchoo

So i had to present this video below.
Make Sure you turn on your Speakers, i would say that i proudly present you the Viral of the year no 2009


magic..

Juno

Well, i just watched Juno. Usually when it comes to movies, my pals making fun of me, they say i'm cheesy since i really like cartoon and teen movies, i would prefer to watch a Funny Hollywood movie with teens doing crazy stuff rather than a super cultural amazing photography European film. Of course i like both styles, but my friends also know that i'm in general a happy person, thus it is important for me to get positiveness in any way i can, so i can try to seed this (LOL)

Well Juno in my opinion is a great movie, it's a must-see teen movie it's one of the movies with young kids who make you wonder how talented some kids could be. Well miss Juno is super talented and a potential super beautiful girl. Not so beautiful as the girl who played at the Disturbia, but she is pretty.. anyway enough with all these stupid words. The movie is nice go watch it.

KU-DOS

PS i'm bored to put the links for the movie so just type Juno in google and you'll get there.

There goes an idea...

hahaha

People/Artists

Well it's time to get back to interesting stuff. It's always nice and beautiful when beautiful people speak about their own creations, it's always nice when people are able to express what they feel when create beauty, it's always nice when people tell their own story, cause as i like to say. The best story that someone can say, is his own.


Fafi is an artist, she is one of those lucky people on earth who found something interesting to do :)

OFD

Well i decided to change the world a bit. It's a hard decision, but nevertheless not impossible. Changing the world is about following your own way, a way you created you discovered, a way so new that even you see it a bit blurry. One of my first things while changing the world is to declare the OFD. Official Fun Day. This day is tomorrow 18th of February...


so 1st Step:
Turn your speakers to the max. and move your feet.


hahaha
totally random bullshit.

C

Adi.

A great campaign just started.
Adidas Originals and 180amsterdam, created a really nice campaign proving that the best story someone can tell is his own.
the first commercial/short film of the campaign is the one who shall remind to many people or bring knowledge to some others, that Adidas stands for Adi Dassler. An athlete who once made shoes for Atheletes.
As the website suggests, this campaign will be supported with more exciting films :)
at the moment enjoy...


This is 180!

Old, good, funny

LOOOOOLLLLLL

ode to abstract.

What's this thing called abstract,
it makes us project colors randomly
it makes us thing weird stuff..
it works like a bridge that connects dreams with reality
it make people wonder, think, re-think
sometimes make people look and feel dumb.
maybe abstract works like a dream, anything is possible there
and sometime anything can be real, even if it's a new invention
a totally random tshirt, a one color painting..
abstract represents the magic f seeing something that nobody else sees but you.

TO THE ABSTRACT AND BEYOND

Randomness

is the essence of life. Great example the converation between two professional adults on a Saturday morning.

Hell YEAH!!

I think i've just discovered something really important.. Many people say time is money, time is money, time is money blah blah.. i say bullshit. Time is just something that passes by. Dreams are the new currency ladies and gents, dreams are those things that come together and propel life, make life interesting, make life a place to live. Dreams come not only when we sleep, dreams are there since we were kids, dreams are the ones that make progress, crazy dreams make fun, big dreams create new big stuff.
Big stuff that change things bring revolutions, smiles, new discoveries.. well you get my point.

Dream and don't be afraid the dream's not real.


to the infinity and beyondddd

Let's

Let's Feel good today..
Let's smile, go out and play.

The new.

But there are times when people truly risk something, and that is in the discovery and defense of the new. The world is often unkind to new talent, new creations, the new needs friends.

Still struggling to find when is the best time to enter the new, when the time to risk in here... how fun risk can be? it's really hard sometimes to discover, but what i like to say is Start today what you are planning for tomorrow..
This was just a though.. the blog will be new. I have also a risk in my mind, not sure if i will go for it still trying to see if the timing is good, but even if it's not.. it will still be fun. Welcome new.

2008

this is the first post of the year. 2007 was a really intense year for me it started with a big Question mark, it ends with a big smile... which is good.
lot's of interesting things happened last year... but they are all history, some of the moments are already stored in my memory some other moments.. just proved me that everything happens for a reason.
2008 this the now.. a kind weird year i think it's only 2 years before the end of the 00's it's a year that has the infinity symbol in it (8-90CW) it's a year.. that will prove to everyone else that the best, are yet to come.. for me it will be the year of NO. I'm prepared to start living with 'NO' it doesn't sound easy but sounds better...till then i wish you all a happy lovely new year. I wish you all health, joy, smile, energy, sun, moments, true tears, ask what's next....

to the infinity and beyond.
