An interesting project we have undertaken for HP. HipHop dancing in Beijing. Coming soon, details later. Here are some pictures of the characters that we created and motion capture of dancers that we did in a mo-cap studio. Fun!

Made a short trip to thailand, visited the Propaganda shop and then headed over to a design/production house in the outskirts of bangkok. They were comprised of former founders of Propaganda. The four partners, are known in the company by the name of  Mr Black, Mr Orange, Mr Red and Mr Pink. Each colour corresponds to a department in their company. Interesting. Reservoir dogs?

A little trip down south of Beijing.

Its been a long time since I last posted but..hmm…Well what have we here? I dont know if I should be flattered or fustrated. Looks like our Toyota campaign site has been copied. Even down to the transitions and animation. SAD.

lot’s of stuff been happening in me o little life,
got a cut to my face some say by a knife.

no time to ponder no time to think,
but if I am going to think, I ain’t going to sink

what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger,
what doesn’t kill you just make you hungrier

life is a strange one
life is a big one
throws you a curve ball
just when you think you have seen it all x2

Went to the concert in Tango- a club in Beijing that was rumored to cost 10million in its interior design. Waited for the concert to start at 730… waited and waited till 930! 2 hours!.. Found out later that the authorities wanted to pull the plug on the concert, as they believed Sonic Youth supported the Tibet independence cause or something like that… Any how they came on and put on quite a show. However I believed they have aged somewhat and the energy they had before was not so powerful anymore. I could especialy tell that when they played 100%. Check it out see below see if you agree.

A night out with Ricoh GR1 in China Doll, Beijing.

We commissioned some Beijing artists to design some boxes for us. These boxes will be turned into chairs at a later date.

The Noise Store opens for some friends, after 5 months of hard work from sourcing of goods, to renovation to dealing with authorities and neighbours.. We were not suppose to sell, but people demanded to buy or chop off our heads…. so we had no choice…
