Absolut: Helmut Lang

Absolut has launched a new website for their series "In an Absolut World." This one is for art created by Helmut Lang. It's not my favorite website Absolut has launched in this series, but it does includes some interesting ways for visitors to interact and view the artwork.

Radiohead: Goodbye Cameras, Hello Lasers

Interesting technology used in Radiohead's new music video for the song "House of Cards." The video was shot with lasers instead of cameras, real-time 3D imagery. Watch the video from YouTube below.

Timberland & User Generated Content

Timberland has launched a website in support of their "Art in the Boroughs" project, at 10061.com. Five artists have created limited edition boots that will eventually be sold. You can watch videos for each of these artists, discovering more about them and their designs. In addition, there's a gallery of user submitted photos (pictured above), and a link to the "design your own boot" section on Timberland.com.

While there's nothing very unique about the idea, the site is well designed and well built.

M&M'S + Hieronymus Bosch

Mars has created an advergame to promote dark chocolate M&M'S. Keeping in line with the "dark" theme, the Dark M&M'S Movie Challenge puts users on a mission to guess the titles of "dark movies" as illustrated in a Hieronymus Bosch-like "dark" painting.

Volkswagen UK: Beetle Art

Volkswagen has launched nice website for a special edition Beetle in the UK. On the website, VW has commissioned several artists to create custom decals for the cars, and visitors to the site can explore how those decals might appear on the car. They're also given the chance to win a customized Beetle.

I think this could have been a much better site if they offered far more decal choices. And what about consumer generated content? Why not allow visitors to upload their own artwork?
