Spoek 'Awufuni'

"New video from South African artist Spoek. "Awufuni" was filmed on location in Johannesburg and pays homage to Izintombi Zesi Manje Manje, a female group that took South Africa by storm in the late 1960's."

We also have a confession ...

Best campaign ever. Nando (South Africa, fast food) is always news. This time Lance Armstrong vs Oprah Winfrey.

Braille Sesame Seed Buns

Wimpy South Africa wanted to let visually impaired people know that they offered braille menus in all of their restaurants. To spread the word we built braille burgers that blind people could actually read. With the help of skilled chefs we took sesame seeds and meticulously placed them on burger buns so that the seeds formed braille.

South Africa - Bicycle Portraits

"Myself, Stan Engelbrecht and a good friend and fellow bicycle enthusiast, Nic Grobler recently started a project investigating South African bicycle culture, and the lack of cyclist commuters out there on our roads. We are currently raising funds to turn this project into a self-published full-color hard-cover photographic book. We are shooting the entire project from our own bicycles while traveling around the country - we are meeting everyday South Africans out there while they use their bicycles."
