Linkedin.. mijn nieuwe positie :-)

Het moest er nu echt van komen. Op mijn Linkedin profiel stond al jaren dat IJsfontein mijn eeuwige werkgever en familie was (is op zich nog steeds een beetje waar). Nu heb ik echter toch daad bij het woord gevoegd en mijn nieuwe positie toegevoegd: Eigenaar van No More Mondays. met een heel verhaal erbij in de omschrijving waar ik helemaal achter sta. Hier nog een keer dan maar:

___
No More Mondays (aka NoMoMo) stands for creativity in its most effective form. For Mobile apps, tactile and playfull interactive spaces as well as creativity-stimulating online media we are making it as fun as possible.
Using a humoristic approach,  superb attractive visual elements and smart-fun content projects made by nomomo always tend to bring that smile on one’s face.
With the slogan “Bringing the FUN back into function” we directly state our mission in life; Sure, things can sometimes seem a bit boring to get into, but it always has fun side to it. Why not use that side to bring it home. Let the user/player/viewer experience the fun and interesting side of a concept, a story or a project.  Everything can look good, feel good and be good. No More Mondays does the trick you need.

Blaauwe maandagen

Nee, niet afgelopen maandag was het officieel de meest deprimerende dag van het jaar. Dat wordt volgende week maandag… Dat belooft wat. Ook voor No More Mondays want dan is er weer een flinke update te verwachten op de site. tot dan..

Verkade Paviljoen

While working for IJsfontein, designed this multitouch two-player memory game which was built in a small table where visitors could play this memory game whilst experiencing the beautiful old collectors editions of Verkade collector books.

Over NoMoMo

Formost, No More Mondays has its speciality in interactive conceptdevelopment, developing creative fun and interactive concepts for brands en and organisations whose products need attention on the mobile community or creating a community with it. By combining humor, “playfullness” and creativity, an app,web-app or site will deliver the message far more directer and faster then the ‘oldfashion’ way of information communication.

NoMoMo also develops playful informative museum games. Personal mission and passion is development of interactive children’s products, which make use of current techniques and with the goal to have parents and children play with each other more instead of letting the kids do their stuff and leave the parents alone.

Besides concept and creation, Don Blaauw also is a public speaker on conferences about subjects like playful use of new media, trends and applied technology .

My experience and extensive professional network allows me to easily and quickly deliver a fitting concept including prototype and art direction. With the right tools and online disciplines in my network (read: short lines to experts) great thing are bound to be realised.

With Don Blaauw in your brainstorm-session or think-tank team, you will be astounded by what wil come out of such a session.
