Man-made clouds to change the outlook
Customised steam will carry brand names to new heights By Jasper Hamill
Comment | Read Comments (15)

NEXT TIME a flotilla of brand logos drifts over the horizon, don't fret - it's an advert, not a nervous breakdown.

A company called Flogos has launched the first custom-made clouds and will soon be bringing its product to Britain.

Produced by a dedicated machine at the rate of two a minute, the flogos can be made to any shape required and float for up to half an hour, soaring up to 30,000ft for a distance of 40 miles.

Made from air, a tiny amount of organic surfactant taken from a tree, and helium, flogos are also environmentally friendly, say the firm.

Huge brands such as Apple, Disney and Mercedes have already floated their logos in the sky and inventor Francisco Guerra hopes many more will follow suit.

He said: "I'm in the office from 7am because inquiries are coming from every square inch of the planet. We are making them as fast as we can but it's not enough.

"Every major advertising company in the world has come to discuss their roster. Some Fortune 500 companies have been too and in Korea, artists have told us they want to use flogos to make a kind of sculpture. The response has been incredible."
All I can say is HORRIBLE!!!

  • It is the camel's nose.

  • I would much rather see these things then some ugly old billboards. Qualitytimelord, get a life

  • but instead we will have both.

  • "bubbledoc"

  • I read that Disney World will use those Flogo machines to make Mickey Mouse heads floating at the theme parks. Pretty interesting!

  • There is an old scifi story about this, after time the technology is widely available and less(?) scrupulous entrepreneurs begin making the logos last longer and longer and releasing them in more and more sites until the sky is littered by persistent corporate trash. Don't we have enough mind-control yet?

    The corporate model is soul-less and capitalism for it's own sake is the single most destructive ism this poor planet has ever borne, I personally find this horrifying.

  • It would be awesome if there were 3D shapes, too. I can imagine the machine sculpting them as they come out of it.

  • Absolutely fucking wonderful.

  • lol trop bon !

  • UMmm bye!! :D

    great video ta

  • flogos are the best avertising idea ever

  • How sadistic can you get, manufacturing fake clouds in the shape of advertising logos? that's almost as bad as switching out somebodies regular coffee with decaffeinated and not telling them!

  • I agree with you, a strong case could be made that this is subliminal advertising, and as far I know, that's illegal.
