About May 16th, 2006

Who in the world am I? Ah, that’s the great puzzle. The fool on the hill, the genius in the gene, the faithful Son, a preacher stealin’ hearts at a trampoline show, the blind ambition of the band, the fox that makes the ravens fly, Flâneur, Sol Invictus, Zoros Astris, Natus ad maiora.
A few cultural references thrown in there, from U2 to Lewis Carroll, from ancient mysticism to my own wyrd.
I work in advertising, and I believe in strategy. I connect dots for a living. Sometimes those dots are pretty hard to see. And sometimes, they don’t even exist yet.
I believe that at the heart of any product lies an idea. An idea so powerful, that it is capable of raising a commodity to a product, a product to a brand. A commodity is like any other. A product can be replaced. A brand however, is so much more. It is the idea that makes the brand intrinsic to the life of the consumer, makes it part of his or her life story.
This blog is about big ideas with the power to change the World. Hold me to that, do.
