This is our first attempt at using Microsofts new technology called “Photosynth” that allows you to take many random images and it stitches them all together for you……

Photosynth is a potent mixture of two independent breakthroughs: the ability to reconstruct the scene or object from a bunch of flat photographs, and the technology to bring that experience to virtually anyone over the Internet.

Using techniques from the field of computer vision, Photosynth examines images for similarities to each other and uses that information to estimate the shape of the subject and the vantage point the photos were taken from. With this information, we recreate the space and use it as a canvas to display and navigate through the photos.

Providing that experience requires viewing a LOT of data though—much more than you generally get at any one time by surfing someone’s photo album on the web. That’s where our Seadragon™ technology comes in: delivering just the pixels you need, exactly when you need them. It allows you to browse through dozens of 5, 10, or 100(!) megapixel photos effortlessly, without fiddling with a bunch of thumbnails and waiting around for everything to load.

Visitors to the Liberty Bridge Park in downtown Greenville, South Carolina couldn’t help but have books on the brain as over¬sized literary classics lined a fountain, an electric box became a book shelf, and The Grapes of Wrath transformed into a park bench.

This is how it turned out!

In the past “Use Only What You Need” campaigns have really worked in Denver. Denver Water had a goal of lowering water use 21% in 10 years, and in just two they’ve already lowered it 20%. So, this year they spent time re-emphasizing the base idea of using only what you need (i.e. don’t waste)  and Sukle Advertising did a great job spreading the message.

They introduced some simple conservation tips, such as not watering between 10am and 6pm and Utalized just about every media outlet possible including a couple 10 second bumpers. Watch them here and here.

They most exciting part of the campaign are the creative outdoor billboards, non-traditional street teams and rarely seen super market conveyor belt advertising. A new ad space that is growing.

Good luck Denver Water and nice work Sukle!

Once again thanks Ad’s of the World for the lead.
