Ogilvy Asia Digital: Recruitment Poster
We're building the mother of all digital armies.
Enlist here. Ogilvy
A recruitment poster that takes digital job applicants to our website via a new kind of QR code. Unlike most QR codes, this one can be read from any angle, and will take them straight to a digital recruitment page on our website where they are given an email address to send their CV to. The right candidates will download the latest QR reader at http://www.i-nigma.mobi on their mobiles to view.

i like it. really enjoyed it most when zoomed into the image closer.
Yeah quite cool. Wonder what scale it is because the viewer needs to be able to be quite far away and up close to get the full effect.
Really nice! Congrats

The only time a QR code makes sense is when you're talking to ad people. So, good stuff.
Angry Birds one was the best consumer facing executing IMO..... http://adsoftheworld.com/media/print/apple_itunes_app_store_angry_bird...

It's one of the better uses of the QR code, but it doesn't seem to work.. QR-reader won't see a QR code in it..
If it really doesn't work, then it's not a good ad by a digital agency. Things that don't work, dont' work. Even if they look nice.
Yep, you can't scan it with either QR droid or Mobile barcode reader -- two top QR reader application. It might work on i-nigma, hell, I'll even download it to test. But otherwise if you choose QR code structure as a template for art work, you must make sure it's readable by most popular applications, otherwise, it's just a bunch of figurines stuck within imaginary square.
