charlesfrith says: I think I’ve spent more time in Cambodia, Burma and Laos than most people who drop by here and I can say that while a skyscraper is something the people will feel proud of. It won’t be too long before people will realise that a capital city without skyscrapers is the hallmark of real grandeur. If all we ever measure is economic growth. Where are the milestones for...

iPod Exhaustion? (Sidewalk Life) →
charlesfrith says: Good point. Clearly the iPod also became a fashion accessory. I should have know this by the number of people who had 5 tracks on their ipod while commuting (I’m very nosy and can’t help overlooking) I too haven’t used mine in the last couple of weeks but I do know that is simply because my head is buzzing. Once work subsides I’ll be back into a healthy...

Moving Beyond Consistency is the Key to Brand... →
charlesfrith says: I think this is the bit I like the most “I have often seen clients hide behind consistent looking marketing communications. Sometimes it’s easier to be visually consistent than really taking the time to explore the DNA of your brand.” ..well said!

A new apartment complex in Beijing provides one way to avoid the bad air and traffic jams: Don’t go outside. From Wired Magazine: The megacomplex is defined by a ring of eight 21-story towers, each with an upper-floor promenade and lounge, plus skywalks that connect to adjacent buildings. Galleries, cafés, bars, and shops will line these public passages. With its 82-floor hotel, the...

layers of looking: eerie images of Chinese mental... →
I came across a BBS on Sina tonight, images from an exhibition of photos of Chinese inmates in asylums, period unknown, location unknown.  They looked uncannily like someone taking photos through a security camera…but then Jason figured out they were photos of photos hanging on a wall.  For non-Chinese readers, go to the bottom of the page and click on the image that looks like this, in...

I’ve been tagged twice in the last week or so with two memes and it really is only sporting to participate. The first occasion started with the gifted Marcus in Munich and with whom despite inevitable titanic struggles over the meaning of meaning I’d love to work with some day. I just know we could push ideas further than we’ve ever pushed them before. So I’m crossing...

charlesfrith says: One of the more disappointing aspects of the Olympics celebration is the complete absence of the international flavour of this event. Its clear from deconstructing the advertising messages that this event is all about Chinese glory and less about international participation. I think the Nike work is exemplary in that at least they use black American athletes even if its Basket...

I”m not so bothered with George Bush as some. I feel a wave of mild embarrassment each time I see him pretending that what is happening isn’t happening. I’m embarrassed for his poor grasp of geography, his shunning of history and lately a reversal on GOP economic theory by advocating ‘trickle up economics’ with the stimulus package. Now they say it’s because...
