At the end of last year I went up to London to see Sanky from AllofUs do a president’s lecture for D&AD. A self described veteran of the digital era, previously from the agency Digit, his talk was engaging and entertaining from start to finish. Entitled ‘How Big is Your World?’ (a quote from Doris Lessing,) he kicked things off by asking everyone to shut their eyes and hum. Everyone in the auditorium did. It sounded great!

Snippets from a D&AD lecture on sustainability in March 2007... The questions posed were: How do brands and agencies communicate to people in an environmentally friendly way whilst maintaining sales? Would brands be better off spending their money on actually helping the environment and not wasting it telling people they help the environment? Whose responsibility is it to push sustainability up the corporate agenda?
