Fist bump to Rob for sending today’s post!

According to the Guinness Book of World Records, it’s the longest and largest surface area 3D painting ever created. In November, British artist Joe Hill designed the 12,000 square foot piece at Canary Wharf in London.

At first glance, it’s just an awesome image. But look a little closer… and welcome to the crafty world of non-traditional marketing.

How much do you think Reebok paid for that?

If you’re interested to see the piece in its early stages, here’s Hill’s outline, before he really got down to business:

After seeing yesterday’s post, in which a BMW billboard straight up smashes Audi, All Terrain’er Rob was inspired to send a similarly striking ‘you got owned’ photo.

He said, “I saw this somewhere with a caption that read, ‘Hell yeah I have an Acer and I’m not afraid to show it!’” Hilarious.

Of course it’s not news that Apple is the choice of the younger demo. But really, it’s so impressive to actually see such supremacy on display.

Your move, Acer.

Thanks to Charlie for sending this one over! This is so awesome that we can’t even find a witty comment worthy enough to post.

Brook, who spent the weekend at the Sundance Film Festival in Park City, UT, sent us this picture last night with the simple text “Shameless!!!”

Brook Jay. William H. Macy. Annnnd that’s all the story we got.

She’s headed back to Chicago now. Hopefully armed with the details behind this encounter and many others. Stay tuned…
