We've moved!! Keep on following The Ad Collector @ http://adcollector.tumblr.com 12 Mar 2013 1:16 AM (12 years ago)

After a while without posting due to the many problems caused by not being able to access blogspot as a result of living in China and suffering the Great Firewall, I've decided to move to a hosting service that is actually "working" here at the PRC.

Amnesty International - Making the Invisible Visible 9 Dec 2010 9:49 PM (14 years ago)

"Making the invisible visible" is an outdoor campaign for Amnesty International featuring German street artists Mentalgassi that wants to bring attention to the case of Troy Davis, a prisoner who who has been on death row for over 19 years in the USA, and despite serious doubts about his conviction still faces execution [AI maintain that no physical evidence links Davis to the crime and seven out of nine witnesses have since changed or retracted their testimony, some citing police coercion.] The special posters are designed so that only can be viewed from an angle. An accompanying plaque also directs observers to a site where they can petition to stop Davis' execution.

("Haciendo visible lo invisible" es una campaña de exteriores para Amnistía Internacional que cuenta con la colaboración del colectivo de artistas callejeros Mentalgassi para atraer atención sobre el caso de Troy Davis, un prisionero que lleva mas de 19 años en el corredor de la muerte estadounidense esperando a ser ejecutado a pesar de las serias dudas que rodean su juicio [AI mantiene que no hay evidencia física que relacione a Davis con el crimen y que siete de los nueve testigos se han retractado o han cambiado su testimonio desde entonces, algunos alegando coacción policial.] La instalación esta diseñada de modo que solo sea visible al mirarla desde determinado ángulo. Una placa adjunta dirige a los observadores a una pagina web donde pueden firmar la petición para detener la ejecución de Davis)

After the fatal earthquake in Haiti, there was a massive coverage. Only two weeks later, Haiti was just a minor topic in the media. In order to keep Haiti top of mind & guarantee further support and donations for Caritas long-term reconstruction programme, the agency created “One minute of silence for Haiti”, a silent mp3, sold on major music platforms as a microdonation that managed to top the Swiss charts, was aired by all national radio stations, spread across the press and more importantly kept Haiti an issue.
