I’ll be speaking in Chicago this coming Wednesday, December 6th at Columbia College. I’m currently touring a presentation I’ve put together with colleague and close friend Aaron Dignan of BrandPlay– We call it ‘An Introduction to the Brand Utopia’. It’s a ‘No Holds Barred’ style presentation that explores what’s happening as the next generation of brand consumers (us) combine our will, technology and taste to transform the brand landscape. This is a rare occasion that the presentation is free and open to the public; prior to this all workshops and lectures we’ve conducted have been behind closed doors and under lock and key at agencies and brands around the country, so it’s been tough to invite you, my readers.

Hope to see some of you there Wednesday evening, 6:30-8:00 in Room 203, 623 South Wabash, Chicago IL. If you’re interested in more information about the Brand Utopia tour, or want us to stop by your agency or school, drop me a line.

Neat, is there any way you’ll record it? Or perhaps people might blog some of the discussion? I’d certainly be interested..

Some of us caught a post about this event on PallaPalla.com. It seemed to be interesting and a couple members of the squad stopped by. Very, very good presentation. Thanks for coming to Chi-town. It was actually surprising how quickly the room cleared out….seemed like a group of students who didn’t really get the whole thing….which is quite a shame. Keep up the good work.
