BCF - "If only checked your breasts as often"

Not checking status updates won't hurt you. But breast cancer can, and might even kill you. In the time you spend online, you can easily do a breast self-examination instead. Learn how to perform one at bcf.org.sg

#Untamed. A digital photo installation.

#Untamed is the first digital photo exhibition of its kind. An installation filled with your most unusual Instagram photos.

The art of being unique.
Countless Instagram photos are created every second. Photos that reflect particular points of view in the life circumstances of different people. Photos that are shared with the entire world. Millions of momentary snapshots. But which motifs are really unique? Mercedes-Benz and the new CLA are looking for Instagram photos with that uniqueness. That are new. Untamed. Photos that can be anything but one thing: average.

The rule: not following any.

Mercedes-Benz will collate these extraordinary views in #Untamed. A digital photo installation of a special kind. The idea behind this: the #Untamed Score shows how distinctive the style of your photos is compared to those of others. The most outstanding photos will be displayed in a unique installation in Paris and presented to an international public of art lovers.

Hashahar - Enjoy Like A Child!

To launch the three new flavors of Hashahar chocolate spread, a classic and favorite Israeli brand, we invited passers-by and passengers of public transport to photograph themselves with the sign which was designed to complement their arm gestures and create the illusion of continuity. They were then encouraged to tag the brand on Instagram.

#socialmedia by ABOVE

As irony has it this video will be reblogged and seen on social media outlets the world over. Go ahead and participate in the irony and reblog the video on your facebook and twitter accounts.

People look at me like I’m from another planet when I tell them I don’t have social media like Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram. In the eyes of social media I’m severely outdated, lost and not ‘connected’.

Not partaking in the aforementioned social media makes me an outsider looking in on how hyper frequent society uses its sacred social media. I can’t help but observe the people around me who appear to be consumed and addicted to trying to keep up to speed on their social media pages.

You check your Facebook page while driving. Tweet a message that you ‘just took a shower’. Instagram a photo of your double soy macchiato with extra foam and so it continues ad infinitum.

I have more questions than I do answers with social media. We live in a ridiculously hyper fast pace life where information is exchanged so rapidly that it makes us feel inadequate and drains our attention span. This painting was executed at the GALORE festival (werket.dk/galore/) in Copenhagen, Denmark. The painting is a time-lapse composed of over 9,000 photos and painted over a 5-day period. Enjoy and try to keep up.

Here are the three types of social technologies that CMOs should consider for their businesses.

Instaglasses - Design concept by Markus Gerke

"Many people use Instagram. They all love the effects, and every one of them loves to take pictures and to share them with their friends. Wouldn’t it be great to capture your everyday life, your entire life, through beautiful filters? The design concept can give the appearance of glasses.

You activate the glasses by pushing “Insta” and option to choose between different filters. Are you enjoying a moment? Just take a picture with your glasses and upload the image straight to Instagram.

Life is beautiful, even more beautiful with filters."
