Magenta. We love it. It’s had something of a renaissance these last few years. It’s like those batwing tops women are wearing again which enable them, in tight situations, to jump off buildings and float to safety like the Dark Knight himself.
Yes, Magenta is back, and has been for some time now. But there’s a chance it will be taken away from us by that malevolent b*****d T-Mobile. They claim ownership of the colour in Europe. No one else can use it, they say. Ban us from using one of our most beloved creative tools? O2 monopolise the iPhone, and now this?
We will not be moved. Rebel here.

This is the Reebok Miami Vice limited edition. Why? Good question. Well because this was one of the early examples of the worlds of Miami Vice and trainers colliding and any excuse to feature a pretty disgusting bit of footwear is not to be missed. Michael (Miami Vice, Collateral, Heat) Mann has directed a new commercial for Nike, thus generating another collision between 'the Vice' and the shoe. It's work so good, it almost makes me want to roll the sleeves up on my jacket in homage to the mighty Crocket and Tubbs. More than this, Mr Mann has managed to get us excited by American Football, making it look more than just a turgid stop/start,stats laden romp between men in tight trousers and pads. Anyway, check out this awesome piece of work from a master of cinema and never buy shoes with palm trees on them. Ever.

They say you can get to the bottom. Apparently there’s someone out there, somewhere, who did it. Once.
It’s digital at its most imaginative. It plays on your mind. It’s sick. It made me spend half an hour scrolling and scrolling and scrolling... and scrolling. I gave up. Where was my determination when I needed it most? Whoever created that site had plenty - the range of little Flash games and widgets is just mind boggling, and every one of them is a little world of imagination and creativity in itself.
As a whole, the site is pure digital mastery.
