A baggage car from Amsterdam Schiphol Airport gets lost like a tourist in Antwerp. It’s an advertising stunt for Schiphol because “Schiphol, is closer than you think.” Especially for people in Belgium who are accustomed to depart from Belgium Airports. The baggage car is driving through the main square, attracting all kinds of attention. The Dutch driver goes around asking how to get to Schiphol. Some people were helpful with instructions like “drive along the Schelde”, the river that runs in Antwerp, and “keep on for two kilometres then ask again”.

Shirt brand BB Chum is zeroing in on the Amsterdam Light Festival with a light installation in the Vondelpark in Amsterdam. Every year, Amsterdam lights up during the Amsterdam Light Festival. The theme for this year’s festival, ‘A Bright City’, challenges artists to create a tribute to life the city. As their contribution, BB Chum lit a part of the Vondelpark last week by colorful lanterns made out of BB Chum shirts that were hung in the trees to create a fun and funky display.
The world’s very first Oceanic Plasticarium is literally bringing plastic soup to the people. The glass cube is a brand new museum piece, which contains 2,700 liters (713 gallons) of plastic soup, sampled directly from the Pacific Ocean, brought to the Institutes founded to educate people about the history of mankind and nature. Filling in a crucial – but missing - part of history. “People often see plastic waste as such an overpowering problem, that feels like it’s too big to do anything about. Our goal with this project is to change that. We are encouraging everyone to take ownership. Plastic soup is something we have created together, and we’re all part of both the problem and the solution. By altering our behavior, together we can make single-use plastics a thing of the past. Our aim is to banish plastic soup to the history books. So that in the future, the only place you will ever be able to see it will be in museums like the Tropenmuseum,” says Merijn Everaarts, founder of Dopper and initiator of the Oceanic Plasticarium.
The Waste Factory tries to reduce this by collecting the remains of perfectly good food that would otherwise be thrown out. These remains are then turned into delicious soups. So tomato butts, beetroot caps, spinach stems and pumpkin cheeks get a second chance. There’s been a lot of attention about this revolution in the foodindustry the last year. Now the dust has settled we needed to crab the attention once again for the introduction of the soups in the supermarket. To draw the attention to the introduction of the soup by The Waste Factory, the agency Fama Volat went beyond. They proved nothing is impossible when trying to prevent food from being wasted. Using the wasted vegetables, Fama Volat created veggy ink. This was used to print the packaging of all waste factory products. Yet another way to put wasted food to good use, and on the agenda again.
