Matter Box- 02.03.08
The Matter Box, apparently people have started receiving them, and i’m SO jealous! I mean seriously, this might be the coolest box of junk mail ever… i know its really just corporate schwag ~ but it’s corporate schwag at its finest, most creative, most amusing. So what was in there? Well below we bring you a break down of not only the contents and images of unboxings, but also some guy unboxing it live in a video!
Oh, and for anyone that is lost, Matter first came up on .org #8403… and it is “a box full of interesting stuff” and “a new and unique idea in communications that brings companies and people together around real, physical stuff–things you can hold in your hands, keep in your drawer, or give to your friends. It’s a new way for companies to introduce themselves by giving you something you might like” AND “is a collaboration between Artomatic and Royal Mail.” Read more at Matter: Brands you can hold, but firstly catch up on the first bow after the jump!
Matter shows off and breaks down the contents of their premier Matter Box in their blog post… the short version of the ideas, concepts, products, rejected ideas and more…
Sony - Music monster! With bite marked brochure. Stolichnaya Vodka ornate enamel lapel badge and mini guide to Russian cultural icons. Wii wrist band! EVO magazine Trump cards! Original Source Mint and Tea Tree Shower Gel. Virgin Atlantic Calendar. Nissan… looks like crayons, but they are soap! Sony Bravia PLAY-DOH! Jordans Cereal and Penguin Books team up for cereal poetry.
Here’s Andy Piper’s Live Unboxing Video:
Adam Crowe’s Flickr Set on the unboxing is a good one to check out.
And there are even more flickr pics tagged ‘matterbox’, but this one of Grace from Dalelane pretty much says it all… see Dale’s unboxing/review here.
I got the matter box and I love it…it’s so cool
