Jamie Bell (aka DispleasedEskimo) made this for his AS Art Course.
“This is the final piece for my AS art course, a flipbook made entirely out of biro pens. It’s something like 2100 pages long, and about 50 jotter books. I’d say I worked on and off it for roughly 3 weeks.”
I’m so old and out of touch that I don’t know how old ‘doing an AS’ makes him – but he got full marks.
Love this sort of stuff. Satisfies the creative and production sides of me.

Google Buzz is easily the boldest attempt yet to build a social network by Google. Imagine taking elements of Twitter, Yammer, Foursquare, Yelp, and other social services, and shoving them together into one package.

Pepsi has launched a new television, online, radio, print and outdoor advertising campaign. It’s a first-of-its-kind experiment in social media that invests the brand in community-building projects.
The Refresh Project is a single, year-long marketing effort where Pepsi will need to find ways to keep the effort fresh and continue to drive sales in a challenged category. Through the Project, launched Jan. 13, consumers apply for grants ranging from $5,000 to $250,000 in one of six areas: health, arts and culture, food and shelter, the planet, neighborhoods and education. One thousand applications are accepted monthly via refresheverything.com, and consumers vote on the winning projects. By the end of the year, Pepsi expects it will have given out more than $20 million in grants.
