CACAHUETES INC. PRESENTS: THE SYNCHRONIZED DANCE OF THE MAGNETIC PEANUTS {internet premier @ google video}

October 26th, 2006

We are extremely happy to announce the internet premier for our documentary “The Synchronized Dance of the Magnetic Peanuts”.

Watch the documentary here:

English

Spanish

As you will be able to see at google videos, this documentary unveils a good deal of mysteries and, at the same time, raises new questions about the now famous case of the Magnetic Peanuts. Throughout the last decade, this case has kept the attention of the international press, especially on planet Earth.

Apart from being an exhaustive investigation work and a new contribution to Science, this documentary is in color and includes unknown testimonials (that of Adam West, for example) as well as images from goats and other animals.

We would like to highlight the great work carried by our investigators and scientific team and the one by our staff of actors and animals.

Without further ado, we hope our project will be of your interest.

We leave you the kindest regards.

If You Do Digital, You Need to Do VIDFEST!

Top 10 reasons to go to VIDFEST

10. It’s twice as big as last year - more speakers, more master classes, more films, more entertainment.

9. A greater concentration of digital creatives and visionaries you will not find. The ratio of digiterati to luddites will be something like 107 : 0.4.

8. It’s podtastic!

7. Great business opportunities. 3 days of mixing, matching, and partying partnering.

6. This industry moves like a cheetah in a brush fire - be like the cheetah.

5. You could be sitting on a waterfront patio with a digital entertainment mogul having a beer and calling it work!

4. Think of it as your annual booster shot of inspiration from the world of digital media creativity.

3. You will finally have a chance to play that championship match game of Pong with Nolan Bushnell, founder of Atari.

2. With all the great people you’ll want to meet you can justify that crackberry habit.

1. Vancouver in June - the mountains, the sea, the sun, oh my.

Nació Stuffed Pixels!

March 10th, 2006

Tenemos el agrado de informarles que hace no muchos días atrás a llegado en formato renovado y con exquisito y selecto contenido una especie de almacén de información curiosa (y en algunos casos perturbadora). Me estoy refiriendo a un Blog, si ya se, da igual, pero no, tan solo echen un vistazo a posts con títulos como:
Concierto de Paquete Con Paquete Hoy en Terrassa , Men Who Look like Kenny Rogers, Lo más odiado por los lectores de RockDeLux, Big Dick!, Google Planning Total Control of the World o Natalie Portman, rapeando! y verán de que se trata.
Un verdadero equipo de… Mmm…. Humanos… Reportando el constante devenir del mundo a través de la red y su particular humor. Supongo que serán el home page de los guionistas de la hora chanante (por dar un ejemplo).
Miembro y fundador de esta empresa es el cacahuetero aBe (mas conocido en Minesota como Alex Beltran), un verdadero… Mmm.. Humano.

MUNICIPIUM FLAVIUS

March 10th, 2006

Hace poco Cacahuetes Inc. ha sido contratado para crear la imagen de una nueva empresa, una cadena de Frankfurts, quienes hayan tenido la oportunidad de visitar Terrassa habrán notado la gran cantidad de locales de venta de Frankfurts, aproximadamente 3 o 4 cada varios metros, si bien es un dato impreciso les podemos asegurar que es igualmente descriptivo.

Para realizar tal empresa hemos estado trabajando duro, primero investigando los orígenes de Terrassa y luego los orígenes de la Salchicha (o Franky, como lo llamamos nosotros). Luego pensamos en muchísimas opciones de nombres (naming process of the process naming) para la cadena salchichera encontrandonos con un desafío mayúsculo a la hora de decidir.

Frente a esta encrucijada creativa decidimos pedir ayuda al gobernador de Terrassa, a quien le escribimos este email. Lamentablemente no obtuvimos respuesta, pero esperamos vuestro aporte, cualquier idea nos viene bien, incluso aunque suene absurda podría triunfar, teniendo en cuenta casos curiosos como Toyota, El Pacifico (un local de venta de armas de fuego) o Dolce Banana Discoteque.

reproducimos íntegramente la carta enviada al gobernador y esperamos vuestras ideas!

Subject: We Need your Help Mayor!

Good night Mayor!

I’m so deeply confused about you and your family. But I have a lot more important things to think about. I’ll apreciate your help in my enforts to find the most incredible, awesome name for a new frankfurt restaurant brand born in our tight, flat, skinny, humeda, wet, industrial town … TARRASSA (Municipium flavius)

We already have some name ideas, things based on concepts based on TARRASSA (Municipium flavius). 

Our favorites till now     …   Municipium Frankfurt  o Frankurt Flavius
Egarfrankfurt

Frak-nuf

and the “must buy ” “KOKOMO”

As you will notice we did an unbeatable research about Tarrassa … our city.

What do you think about this names ? We are open to your appreciated contribution ! give us some ideas, we want to beat VIENA and those Sabadell bussines ! HELP US !

Best wishes

Alex
Cacahuetes Inc. team
