Finding Evan Ratliff

Evan Ratliff Vanishing

Wired Magazine wanted to know if it's possible to just disappear and start a new life somewhere else. They promised their writer, Evan Ratliff, $3000 if he could stay hidden for a month, and they promised the internet crowd $5000 if they could find him.

It turns out that social media sites like Facebook and Twitter played a very big role in the hunt. The story is long but well worth reading.

Idea Killers

This is a very clever ad campaign for independent film group called "Show Off". The ads illustrate how good ideas can be killed by showing a famous historical or fictional situation. It's designed by Marcelo Lourenco and Pedro Bexiga with illustrations of Scott Campbell.

Idea vs. Budget
Idea vs. Department of Legal Services
Idea vs. New marketing director
Idea vs. Focus Group
