Julien Vallee creates another amazing video, “Danse Danse.” He says, “Each day, we are surrounded by seemingly insignificant objects, taking them from one place to the other, or leaving them on a table for weeks, without paying any attention to them. We ignore or forget them, using things only when we need to, making sure they don’t interfere or inhabit our space. But what if they were not so stable and subservient? What if they could swivel, bounce or even fly. And what if they did so all at the same time? We want to imagine a place where objects could live and move, harmoniously, and of their own accord. Without interfering with each other these objects would bounce, roll, turn and cross each other’s paths. This experiment is about re-discovering our daily surroundings. Each object is assigned to aletter on the keyboard, and can be activated or deactivated at any time.” Watch the making of the video and then go to the actual site.

For a high profile launch in Venice of the new Swatch Art Collection, a series of watches decorated by international artists. Agency Thank You created a campaign by unifying the different watches into one over-arching idea. The concept was an Art Machine, a crazy, fast moving mechanical device that creates art and spits out watches, while working to a time-related beat. A colorful mixture of materials and techniques achieved the right attitude for the films with the campaign successfully launched on all media fronts worldwide.
