Sepak Takraw
Sepak Takraw is a sport that combines the elements of soccer and volleyball with kung fu. I saw some guys in a local village in Laos last year that played a simular sport with a cane ball. Amazing! I was blown away by the flexibility of these dudes in this video.

A bit short for my liking, but I guess that’s why they call it a teaser. Don’t get too excited just yet. It’s not due to launch until July 20, 2012!
Jay-Z “Decoded” campaign wins Integrated Grand Prix and Titanium at Cannes
Article by: Fast Company
New York agency Droga5 continued its hot streak at the Cannes International Festival of Creativity with big wins for its Bing/Jay-Z “Decoded” campaign in the key Titanium/Integrated Lions category. The campaign won the Integrated Grand Prix and nabbed a Titanium Lion, winning over a jury that was “looking for the bravest idea.”
The Titanium Lion was launched in 2003 to recognize emerging forms of brand work that wouldn’t neatly fit into the existing award categories; the Integrated Lion was added in 2005, though the definition of what falls under each title has been fluid.
Jury chair Bob Scarpelli, the chairman of DDB Worldwide, acknowledged that the definition of an integrated campaign has shifted and that today, “the best ideas are integrated into culture.” Scarpelli called the campaign, which has also picked up Grand Prix in the Outdoor and Film Craft categories, “bold, innovative, interactive, immersive. It’s creating media.” There was no Titanium Grand Prix awarded.

Tesco Homeplus ‘Virtual Supermarket’
As part of a campaign by advertising agency Cheil, train commuters in Seoul can now grocery shop while they wait for their train to arrive at the platform. A large billboard was installed along the platform, recreating a Tesco Homeplus supermarket with each item marked with a QR code. By scanning the codes onto their smartphones, commuters are able to add the item into their shopping cart online and after purchase, will be delivered to their homes. Genius!

Bape Store New York Closing
When I first heard while in New York early last year that the Bape store was closing on Greene St in Soho. I thought it can’t be serious. I know Bape has lost a lot of it’s original street credibility over the last few years, but I still thought there was a huge following with the continued support of some of the biggest international music artists around ie. Kanye West, Pharrell Williams, Lil’ Wayne just to name a few.
But I was wrong.
It’s been announced that the store will be closing at the end of the month. This may not come as a surprise to some after hearing the majority of the company was sold to the owner of I.T. for only a few million. Bape is now going through some drastic changes. I’ve always been a fan of the brand and Nigo even though I don’t wear as much as I used to. I appreciate his business model and hope this isn’t the end. Good luck!
Check out Kid Cudi’s performance at the store.
LASCO Los Angeles Shoe Company
LASCO Brand Introduction from LASCO on Vimeo.
As an avid sneaker and shoe collector. Sometimes it’s nice to see a film like this that reminds you of not only the story of the artist behind the shoe but also the craftsmanship and WHERE it’s actually made. I don’t mind paying a little extra for something with a little extra love put into it. I tip my hat to Greg Salas, founder of LASCO.
