"Real Life Adventures"



Real Life Adventures by Gary Wise and Lance Aldrich

"Trading down"

"For Generation Y [those born after 1978], the crisis has hit harder than September 11. This is the first financial trauma of their lives, and they have been led to believe that access to capital and spending is limitless. Many of them are just completely over their heads. They have no idea of budgeting."

- Paco Underhill in "The Shopper of Tomorrow: Trading Down"

"Food for thought"

"Creative people have 50 per cent more mating success than non-creative people, which explains my three wives. Why do pop musicians and artists have all this mating success? It’s because on an unconscious level their peacock’s tail is on display.”
-- Robin Wight, The Engine Group

"Food for thought"

"In modern times, there is nothing which more exactly defines social differences than personal taste, whether in food or music or wallpaper or the choice of children’s names. The choices that people make in these areas of life may seem spontaneous and genuine, but, without any apparent pressure or coercion, they usually conform to class lines."
-- Keith Thomas, "To Buy or Not to Buy: The Origins of Good Taste"

Deite tudo cá pra fora!

No fim-de-semana passado reparei que a maioria das pessoas que foram ver o "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" saíam a lacrimejar ou com os olhos avermelhados de tanto puxar pelo nervo óptico.

Uma ideia: e se a Kleenex à saída do cinema distribuísse lenços de papel. Não daria uma acção interessante?

"Food for thought"

"We're not an ad agency, and I don't want to be an ad agency. We're a media-arts company that expresses brands through many forms. It shouldn't be one company does ads, another does PR and another does packaging or architecture."
-- Lee Clow, TBWA\
