Formed in October 2003, AllofUs is a truly multi-disciplinary interactive design consultancy. Ultimately, we aim to improve the way our clients and their audiences connect by realising the potential of intelligent user-experience design across an ever-expanding portfolio of interactive media, technologies and communication channels. It is this highly integrated and user-centred approach to interface creation that we believe makes us different, alongside a fundamental desire to create and innovate with new technology...
All media work us over completely. They are so pervasive in their personal, political, economic, aesthetic, physiological, moral, ethical and social consequences that they leave no part of us untouched, unaffected, unaltered. The medium is the massage. Any understanding of social and cultural change is impossible with out a knowledge of the way media works as environments

Explanation of 'Medium is message':

‘New media are so metaphorical. People struggle for words to describe the eruptions. Commonly our struggle is falsely framed as one single clean transition. There, Old Media, reeking of ink and celluloid – here, New Media, fast, clean, interactive.’
Bruce Sterling ’60. innovators shaping our creative future’ p279

This is our one minute advertisement for the launch of Turkish Edition of The New York Times.

We constructed typographic versions of the most recognizable landmarks in Manhattan and Istanbul, and created a compact tour taking the audience from the New York Harbor all the way to the Bosphorus. Actual pages from the first issue of the newspaper were used to create the textures used in the scenes. The financial news page became NYSE and Wall Street, entertainment news turned into Times Square, and so on.
