Start making snowballs now. PETA's "Rather Go Naked Than Wear Fur" campaign will hit Denver tomorrow. At high noon on the 16th Street Mall at Glenarm Place, PETA's "sexy activists" will cuddle up in a bed on a public sidewalk wearing nothing but their underwear and holding a sign reading, "Fur–Out, Love–In." Enjoy the chilly Denver temps, PETA. Should have scheduled the Denver stop for summer. Bahahahaha.
Google ran a wanky spot called Parisian Love last night during the Super Bowl in which we saw a man's love for a girl in Paris develop as he typed various terms into the Google search engine window. This is the spot they should have run to get the attention they we're seeking.

Westword is doing a series of interviews with influential Coloradans (as well as bands) for their online edition of the Back Beat culture section called Back Talk. For some reason, they wanted to talk to us. Here's how we answered their questions.
You and your partner are shootin' the shit and your account manager walks over with an assignment. It's a delicate one. The original Taco Bell founder, Glen Bell, has died – and as creatives at DraftFCB on the TB account, you're tasked with honoring him. The available brand assets are many, but you quickly clue on one that seems just too perfect to pass up: the hot sauce packets with cute phrases on them. Together, you kick around heartfelt sentiments until the stars align. And you decide this is how you will honor the man who has meant so much to the success of the company.
Design:related has a great interview with Creative and Art Director, DJ Neff, who just helped Chiquita Banana retool their brand – using playful illustrations and Chiquita's iconic stickers as the base for the campaign. Go check it out.
Massive Attack has been doing a lot of self-promotion lately, including this sweet vid on top and the one on the bottom that probably actually prefers it on top too. Warning: NSFW.
NY-based Icon Omnimedia, a print and duplication house known for their elaborate and custom music packaging, contacted Denver's Legwork Studio to design their newest promotional CD sampler. Icon gave Legwork total creative freedom, as well as shared space on the sampler. The only guidelines were to use the piece to showcase Icon's print and finishing capabilities (while staying within budget).
Conceptually, the agency turned to Thomas Edison for inspiration. His DIY ethics and creation of the first phonograph were a perfect reflection of Icon's culture and industry. Legwork created a series of Edison illustrations that are printed on each panel of a pocket poster. Once the package is unsealed, the inner right panel of the package has a die cut window that reveals one panel of the poster. The poster can be re-folded different ways to show a different portrait through the cut.
Created by artists Katja Kublitz and Ronnie Yarisal, the Anger Release Machine is a traditional vending machine filled with glassware and china. So instead of getting your usual release by pounding down Mars Bars, you can insert a few coins and enjoy the soothing sound as mama's porcelain crashes to the surface below. Put these in the right locales and you'll be raking in the dough, Katja and Ronnie.
