mates race


www.888dag.com

What is MatesRace?
MatesRace is the biggest and most challenging fundraiser, involving a 28 day “race” around the entire coast of Australia.

Whats so challenging about that?
Well teams of two will have to beg, busk and borrow their way around Australia...

WITH NO MONEY!!!!!!!!

Following, the designated race course and some loose rules it will be up to their own street smarts and creativity to get from town to town.

Each team, representing their own charity, will raise funds through corporate sponsorship and individual contributions before leaving.

Teams will capture their experience along the way with their own handy cam.

How will they make it?
By promoting their greatest asset, the word MATE. Aussies are renowned for using the term.

We say it every day to family, friends and people we meet for the first time… and yes, to those who we have met but just can’t quite remember their name (don’t be shy we have all done it before).

Teams will be expected to rely on good ol’ fashion Aussie mateship to help them out by way of a lift, meal or bed.

smoke & mirrors interactive jewellery range

www.888dag.comTurn Me On Design
‘Smoke & Mirrors’ – an interactive range of silver jewellery.

Smoke & Mirrors is a journey of enigmatic illusion that tests the logic of the mind and challenges
perceptions of reality.

An extension of Turn Me On Design’s former range,Oh Fiddlesticks, Smoke & Mirrors was created
from a jewellery fiddling addiction. The latest collection provides purpose to the ‘fiddled’ action, in
the form of horseshoes, keys and cubed pieces.

Each design is a relic of the past, with a nostalgic reference to ancient puzzles and games. The
‘Key’ necklace, is modelled on two interlinked antique keys; and the wearer’s aim is to separate
each piece using a designed groove system. Then there’s the six-sided ‘Cube’, which requires one
to consider all sides simultaneously while navigating a cross beam through the centre.

The very meaning of Smoke & Mirrors alludes to artful deception; tricks that are translated into the
functionality of each piece and concealed with a mysterious charm.

Smoke & Mirrors draws on geometric form and resolution, while merging the boundaries of object
and fashion design. Jewellery is no longer a static form, but a multifunctional enigma, one that
tests and celebrates the mind’s logic; communicating rationality and reason.
