]]> Comment on sustainable clubbing (& advertising) by Nanna http://noochi.com/blog/2008/07/12/sustainable-clubbing-advertising/#comment-493 Nanna Sun, 13 Jul 2008 16:27:28 +0000 http://noochi.com/blog/2008/07/12/sustainable-clubbing-advertising/#comment-493 Thank you very much for your gifted response, Jim. I salute you! I would actually love to see you succeed, and feel confident that you will or have already... i think the beauty of the concept of reverse graffiti is that if anyone is sufficiently bothered by the artwork or the ad, they can wash it away with water, and are in their good right to, as we all own the space (i don't know if the municipality have a different opinion?)... and so the person whom it bothers as much as to actually take action wins the space... You can have a battle between parties that does not take away from the environment but instead proposes a water-based and peaceful display of opinions. as for input to your business? i would like to clarify the reason for why i refer to the telfort ad as "pretty lame"... although carried out in a clever manner - showing the logo/line on the poster so that there is no doubt in people's mind, that this is commercial - i would downplay the ad aspect. move the ad closer to works of art. combine something that is nicer to look at than the dirt that used to be behind it (closer to your smart car ad example). it makes the "consumer" appreciate the brand even more if the brand gives back with some eye candy, or by drawing attention to the fact that the place was dirty. the telfort logo just looks like plain school boy graffiti - nothing that contributes value to one's perception of the surroundings. i think you could also extend the concept a little bit - and play a bit more on the "nature material" aspect - by making sand sculptures on the beach during summer, and ice sculptures on city squares when frost temperatures kick in... I am considering to open up a danish branch of GreenGraffiti... we certainly have the perfect canvas for it here in copenhagen. not to mention the first mover's advantage...

as for input to your business? i would like to clarify the reason for why i refer to the telfort ad as “pretty lame”… although carried out in a clever manner - showing the logo/line on the poster so that there is no doubt in people’s mind, that this is commercial - i would downplay the ad aspect. move the ad closer to works of art. combine something that is nicer to look at than the dirt that used to be behind it (closer to your smart car ad example). it makes the “consumer” appreciate the brand even more if the brand gives back with some eye candy, or by drawing attention to the fact that the place was dirty. the telfort logo just looks like plain school boy graffiti - nothing that contributes value to one’s perception of the surroundings. i think you could also extend the concept a little bit - and play a bit more on the “nature material” aspect - by making sand sculptures on the beach during summer, and ice sculptures on city squares when frost temperatures kick in…

We are in the business yet we too share your concerns. We are very sensitive to the fact that we are now treading on one of the last places where advertising has yet to appear. We would be the first to say that GreenGraffiti is not the perfect solution... yet but it certainly is an alternative and one of the only forms of advertising to come from our industry that provides a solution that has less impact on our environment. As a socially responsible business, we are giving back to the local communities that GreenGraffiti uses as our canvas. Big bad advertising is here to stay and though we agree that is a bit overwhelming, this form of advertising is, in our opinion, a step in the right direction. If you have any ideas as how we can improve our product or would like to contribute you thoughts, we welcome an open and honest discussion. We are advertisers but we are advertisers actively looking to make the world a better place. Idealistic? Absolutely but also authentic and dedicated.

I believe that Inreallife.dk has a huge potential- where money isn't key, but inspiration and happy members are =) YEY ! - thanks Nanna - I thought it was really cool as well =) we are planning to make money but it is not essential - We are going to go with several different forms of membership for inreallife.dk - one is free, one is not, and one is for a whole company…

]]> Comment on consume less stuff by Hekla http://noochi.com/blog/2008/02/25/consume-less-stuff/#comment-202 Hekla Thu, 06 Mar 2008 08:22:23 +0000 http://noochi.com/blog/2008/02/25/consume-less-stuff/#comment-202 I have watched the storyofstuff video several times and just love the way its done and the clear message : 'consume less, buy less, and be a concious consumer - I have a saying that goes for everything I do : less but GOOD. Look for instance at all the junk people add to their baskets in the supermarket!!! Sometimes I find myself STARING with an open mouth, thinking that it cant be real. So if we cut away most of the junk, we can afford to buy organic and fairtrade. Consumers have ALL THE POWER. We actually have the choice to make a difference.
