ADLAND SPECIAL -- Officially Not Summer + Adland Interview By Adpulp


Just a note to wake journal up. Next week some science fiction rants or video. -The Invisible Cat

Dude! You Didd't Have A Clue Who She Is!
[ Sometimes people use a technological solution and accept their job is more pleasant than it should and never bother to ask; 1. Who invented it. 2. When was that tool invented. 3. Where was it invented. 4. Why is this marvelous tool in this most unlikely situation?
]
[ I have thought those questions now and then. I had been "on the Internet" before it was all prettied up for everyone -- It-was-big-heavy-slow just like today.
]
[ One of the non-military plans for Internets was easy access to a site that could have a repository of ... Anything ... in the case of advertising it is Adland site by Ask Wapplings (AKA @dabitch). Twenty years of cataloguing, by the rules, the best and worst of the industry for future students and general public has been kicked off the Internet. The
"Nuisance DMCA" is not being used as it was intended but as a weapon destroying history and educational resource. Back to repository. I had icy chill because my thought was just like, "Library of Alexandria".

MIPCOM: Keynote Speakers Explicate Content, Delivery, Advertising and Social Platforms

MIPCOM: Keynote Speakers Explicate Content, Delivery, Advertising and Social Platforms

Before I offer opinions I wish to thank MIP for the great speakers and full length video. https://www.youtube.com/user/mipmarkets

1.0 Social Ground Zero -- Twitter
[ Note on "TV x Twitter - MIPCOM 2015" presentation
 -- Think about the new shiny toy called social TV and what it will be asking you to give up in order to play by rules that are, at best, not in your best interest. We already throw useful, sometimes personal, data at Youtube, Twitter, Facebook, Google and others but I get twitchy when "TV x Twitter" promises a world of fun without cost. I may be overstating my position on this platform  -- needs more study. ]

1.1 DeathStar -- Google
[ What Google built in order to make mobile experience better - Has nothing to do with making video work better. ]

[ Mobile: google AMP ]
http://www.niemanlab.org/2015/10/get-ampd-heres-what-publishers-need-to-know-about-googles-new-plan-to-speed-up-your-website/

Basic concept is simple. No javascript. Restrictive CSS, images and video can be constrained at will for performance. JSON is okay because it is the loader. HTML5 multimedia tags are AMP custom elements. Think Facebook Instant Articles done "The Google Way".
But this stripping out out tags also reinforces a walled garden. AMP is an open source project, but tags like amp-img are killing and replacing elements that have been part of the open web for literally decades. It’s forking HTML
For better and for worse, this is essentially a rollback of how HTML and web technologies have evolved over the past decade. It’s a little jarring that so many of the sample AMP pages on display this morning look a lot like the web of, say, 2002, shrunk down to a phone screen. Like an IE 5.5 emulator.
However, another non-standard standard promises good things. We like good things until all user control is locked down. By user I mean me and my mobile.
And it’s yet another case of a technology company coming along to promise a better experience for users that takes one more bit of power away from publishers. That is, of course, a reasonable and good thing for technology companies to do! Blogger and WordPress empowered anyone to publish online; this hurt professional publishers but the tradeoff was a net gain for users. Google, Facebook, and Twitter created amazing platforms for discovering interesting content; this hurt professional publishers but the tradeoff was a net gain for users.
1.2 We have the Force -- Not Yoda, that other guy
A brief history of phone vs human (I think so) from Jacques Mattheij (@jmattheij). I pulled out one point, read it all.
[ SEPTEMBER 9, 2014 Whose Phone Is It Anyway? ]
http://jacquesmattheij.com/whose-phone-is-it-anyway
And so we arrive today. Where you think that you own the computer that you use and the phone in your pocket. You see the network as a peripheral of your computer and your phone, with your device as a node in a network operated by ‘peers’.

But that’s not the view of the phone company and your ISP. They see that phone in your pocket and that computer on your desk as a peripheral of their infrastructure.
I was going to add a few more historical essays (less than "now" old) but physics got in way. Pesky relativity.

1.3 Special Relativity for Content Viewing -- It's The Law
[ consumer is the observer of the content; There is only now, past and future are irreverent. Time and light vector for Future and Past emanate from the observer in normal space. ]

We React To Ads In Unplanned Ways: Fells Point Has Gone To The Tourists

[]
This is how Fells Point looked before the tourists took over. All the fun bars are gone, replaced with brand name restaurants, trendy shops and a hotel I never heard of.

The scruffy waterfront is postcard pretty to some but it is so packaged up for the sell, sell, sell I want to drop my wine bottle and vomit in the street. Damit I don't care about the "don't scare the horses visitors" rule.

[
The reason for all this anger is simple. I had a boatload of fun down in Fells Point. A bunch of us would ride down, park, shoot pool, drink beer at a cheap price and have a blast. That was followed by sitting on the bikes till the cops got tired of watching us and left. At that time it was safe to go home by putting up S. Broadway to the Interstate. Work the next day was usually as rough as the starched shirt collar and got as ugly as the mandatory tie. BUT WE HAD FUN the night before.
]
[
Present day: JFAC as one friend would say if he saw the current sanitized Fell Point. And before I forget I would like to thank the folks who put this editorial in my head.

First is http://adland.tv who posted an entry from http://workthatmatters.blogspot.com/ who in turn had an interesting commercial by a Fells Point area business.
Work That Matters: F'd Ad Fridays: Baltimore lingerie store ad turns ...: "It's awesome, in its own special way. Via Adrants"
---- Check it out because 1) it is a neat local ad, and 2) it should really be located down by the other business (see above image, Love Zone). In a more interesting time it would be and the place would be under sege by packs of college girls out for the weekend plus the so called biker chicks (Wife hates the term "property of" so I won't use it. It is just another stupid label. /derail)

Some notes on this image:

1. B is the location of the shop in the ad. Kind of off the tourist route.

2. A is about where Love Zone was located. It is a pizza shop now and you can look it up. The area is one clean-cut hog trough.

The business, Accentuate Lingerie is located here (B). Since this is an old shot per Google Street View the store front of the new business is not shown. Watch the ad.

So that is it. Amazing how a commercial can generate unintended reactions.

Australia - Full frontal nudity (soft p0rn) edited photos has an unbelievable side effect



This "neat and tidy" look has a side effect that is outrageous. Not going to plaster links, video and photos right now but I will say a form of cosmetic surgery has become a growth industry due to that "Classification Board" guideline. Current trend shows the use of Botox and other self image improving solutions by teenage through college girls is increasing at an alarming rate everywhere. However, cosmetic surgery requests in Australia to achieve the above is increasing. No human can look like a magazine cover found in the grocery store much less have genitals that fit above specification. And that is what all photos are in fashion magazines & skin magazines -- made to a specification.

ALL MAGAZINES SHOULD HAVE A BLACK BOX LABEL DISCLOSING THE PHOTOS ARE NOT REAL BUT ARTISTICALLY ENHANCED MODELS.

In other words cartoons.
