gapingvoid: more evil than microsoft etc.

9 Comments


My evil plan goes public buah ha ha ha…
[Bonus Link] John­nie Moore men­tions the Road Trip:

It’s all a million miles away from high-powered bran­ding from the top down. You let go of the trap­pings of high office when you follow this path, and get down to the grass­roots, taking the risk of having some ordi­nary, ram­bling con­ver­sa­tions in the real world, ins­tead of broad­cas­ting brand man­tras over mains­tream media. There are no com­for­ting stats of impacts-per-thousands spent this way, just the rea­lity of a cer­tain amount of grind. Of course it’s not really a grind if you hap­pen to like tal­king to people.

    Hugh, you’re lovely!
    Let me know when you’re next in Cork, Ire­land and I’ll orga­nise a din­ner of lovely peo­ple, which I pro­mise won’t be 98% male. Though I hope it won’t be 98% women either!
    In fact, last night, my friend Sheena and I star­ted plan­ning a magi­cal mys­tery food tour for one eve­ning next sum­mer.
    It’ll fea­ture boats & gri­lling the fish you catch your­self on them, a gar­den filled with fra­grant blooms, lots of twinkly lights and music to match. Why don’t you come!?

    “…evil, like the fruits of the devil…“
    I think I’ve cloc­ked the idea, but if not, the one thing that comes across is an honesty and a naked­ness about pro­mo­ting a busi­ness.
    To quote Not­ting Hill towards the end when Julia says to Hugh ” Yes, I am a famous actress, but I am also just a girl who wants to be loved“
    Nothing gets to the heart more than “strip­ping your­self naked” and ope­ning up.
    Can you see Coca-Cola being this honest?
    Hugh, I’m not sure if peo­ple will really “get” what you have done for a while yet but you may have hel­ped turn a big cor­ner in get­ting uncon­ven­tio­nal new media tech­ni­ques noti­ced!
    It is such a shame I mis­sed you in Stock­port — I’d have given you a big hug after seeing this video!!

    You felt like you had to announce that?!? Oh. It see­med fairly clear from across the pond.

    What can I say to that except “I love it”?
    Keep on, Hugh.

    Happy Valentine’s Day, Hugh.

    Nobody deser­ves to be ‘in love’ more than you, so this com­ment arri­ves with wishes for your every hap­pi­ness.

    Too bad You­Tube videos don’t tra­vel down the RSS pipe­line; I would have loved to share this one with my RSS audience. As it stands, only visi­tors to the vlog will get to see it.

    I like the evil plan!!
    Ladies… Hugh is an ama­zing per­son, very inte­lli­gent, a gent­le­man through and through, and has a very big heart. Few are worthy of his affec­tion, though I fear he does not rea­lize this.
    (How’s that for an unso­li­ci­ted plug?)
