The world turned upside down: A New York with no ads

Whilst we at the Think Tank love nothing more than creating ads and visual marketing, Morgan Spurlack are doing quite the opposite as they seek to de Ad the city that never sleeps. The bright lights, and infamous advertising of the Big Apple, are being photoshopped out in a No Ad: New York campaign led by Morgan Spurlack, an internet based effort to remove all visual advertising from Times Square.

The inspiration? Sao Paulo's ban from outdoor advertising on the basis of visual pollution. If you agree, grab your mouse and click onto Morgan Spurlack's site and clean up the streets yourself. There is even the option of de advertising your own city. So, who wants to take on The Big Smoke??
