I attended AdBall – a Fashion Fetish Event – last night. It was a bacchanalian gala held to signal the end of Advertising Week 2010. I was generously invited by the men of 5th Element Events (one of our Blog Sponsors) and, with camera in tow, set out to let my hair down after a long week of travel and training.
It was a great night out, one of my most enjoyable in a while. Highlights included watching a man take off his pants for a photo op (yes, it’s true), listening to artist Anjulie, who tore it up for the crowd, the great food, and of course the swag bag! Some photos from the event can be seen below.
Here’s a YouTube video of the talented Anjulie performing her song Rain, which was featured on The Hills.

I’m very curious to know if anyone has experienced this show and if it’s any good.
I heard about Accomplice while half-listening to Conan O’Brien at the same time that I was frenetically researching future blog stories. In between strange turn-of-the century impressions, Neil Patrick Harris talked about the game / show / tour called Accomplice that he’s promoting in Hollywood. It sounds very cool.
From what I gather you buy a ticket and a time for this (let’s call it a) ‘show’. You don’t know where you’re going when you order your ticket. Instead, you get a phone call the day before you leave and someone tells you where to go as well as the storyline. Then, you’re tasked with following a set of clues (along with your group, which consists of about 10 people) and solving the mystery.

SQUARE3 / E. De Crecy Tests from 1024 on Vimeo.
Another very cool Vimeo find! 1024 created this incredible installation for Etienne de Crecy‘s live show. According to flyfly.com, the content is projected via custom QC software, controlled by the musician MPC in real-time. Very interesting!

I thought this was fantstic…
“In an effort to establish new platforms for public art and performance, the multimedia duo SWEATSHOPPE has developed a new interactive technology that enables them to explore the relationship between video, mark making and architecture. Dubbed “video painting”, this technology allows them to essentially “paint” video onto any surface. Shooting in Queens, Brooklyn, and Manhattan, the duo spent weeks documenting their work in urban settings to create “The Landing” the first in a series of episodes that showcases their work as artist, technologist and performers. This video shows 4 full uncut extra clips form the landing.”

“The moments of happiness we enjoy take us by surprise. It is not that we seize them, but that they seize us.” ~Ashley Montagu
Think of surprise the next time you plan an event. This video provides great fodder and inspiration for an event. An unexpected event is likely to put its hooks in our memory.
