Mini Cooper "Save a Life" (2013) 1:50 (Mexico)

Mini Cooper had an interesting series of activations to try and get people to stop texting whilst driving. The first was they took letter sculptures, and "injured," them, placing them around the city, to show the damage texting while driving can really do.

They also created Word Blocker, an app disables incoming calls and texts based on GPS and speed of vehicle.

The first part must have been stunning to see in person.

The app's effectiveness is measured by how smart the person is to enable it. And I say this because we're dealing with people dumb enough to risk their lives to send a text message, you know what I mean?

Die Antwoord - I fink u freeky - (2012)

"I fink U freeky and I like u a lot" and hell breaks loose in a black and white inferno of dancing elephant-snouted kids, albinos, real live snakes - caressed in the most sexually suggestive way possible, rats, stuffed lions, and black eyed Yolanda floating in a tub of FREEKY. There's even a kid with Yolanda's haircut painted in black flashing by for freaky-deaky details. Also, roaches. We can't have a video without a district 9 reference. Well done on the directing, Ninja.

Nicola Formichetti - "Untitled Video Portrait" (2011)

Die Antwoord - Evil Boy (Explicit Version) - (2010)

Four minutes and thirty nine seconds of WTF!?, featuring Wanga, a teenage Xhosa emcee, and Diplo himself. Die Antwoord (The Answer) are here to mess with your synapses combining thumping beats with a heavy dose of surreal and downright scary dancing creatures. From Yolanda, bleached the whitest of white's with her collection of white rats while wearing a rat-jacket, to the freaky alien like creatures with District 9 prawn arms. The graffiti which is part Keith Haring, part new african art as it happen when one marries naive to city-culture. This is all kinds of perfect.

The video is a protest against Xhosa ritual male circumcision, which explains the many phallic images and perhaps the penis microphone too.

Goezy (Laxative) - The art of uncorking - Gallery with toilet paper sculptures

To launch the Mega Lifesciences laxative brand Goezy with minimum budgets that maximized hype, we decided to recreate the feeling of having to spend hours in the toilet when you are constipated.

We briefed Artists to create sculptures on the theme struggle using toilet paper. The sculptures were later exhibited in art galleries. Each piece carried titles (ex: Clutch, Grimace, etc.) which mentioned the artists name and the number of hours spent in the loo. Goezy took ownership of helping relieve the artists of constipation.

Kanye West - POWER - Premieres tonight on MTV

Leading video artist Marco Brambilla taps tribalism and neo-classical influences to paint an extraordinary visual tableau for Kanye West’s new release, Power.

Taken from Kanye’s forthcoming release Good Ass Job [Title TBC], Power is a contemporary musical morality play reflecting on the problems and paradoxes of modern life – where excess, egotism and celebrity coexist alongside poverty, dubious politics and power.

Responding to the drive of Kanye’s track, Marco Brambilla has visualised a moment of cataclysmic collapse with a moving video collage inspired by neo-classical art and his previous installation piece, Civilisation.
