The Art of Noise
This was a project developed for sound studio Noise International, to raise their profile among the creative community, while driving registrations for their biennial inter-agency ping-pong tournament. We created a campaign that demonstrates how well Noise understands the life of a creative in advertising.
With an interactive soundboard of advertising sounds, a series of personalised posters created by sound and code, and an animated video showing the ups and downs of any creative’s day, the campaign was incredibly well received by the Sydney creative community.
Upon campaign launch we had over 1400 visits to the Noiseboard website and a 355% increase in hits to the Noise International website. All with no paid media.

Website - noiseboard.com.au
We created an interactive soundboard website called 'Noiseboard'. The entire website, including type and all images, was created in HTML5. The Noise logo animation was generated completely by the browser in real time, using the Web Audio API. Noiseboard is also WebRTC enabled, letting users interact creating their own sound animation.
Noiseboard featured 9 categories each containing 3 sounds. The categories were grouped according to typical facets of creative life: everything from realising your new brief is a turd, to cracking a Cannes-worthy idea, to sending a bitching email to all staff. Oops.
Posters
To drive agency creatives to the website, we created personalised posters for each of the 48 Sydney ad agencies, based on their names. Each poster was a one-of-a-kind ‘soundprint’ created through the unique interaction of sound and code. – Using the WebRTC feature of the Noiseboard, when an agency’s name was spoken into the computer’s microphone, a unique soundprint was created.
The typography style is also unique for each poster, reacting directly to how ‘noisy’ the corresponding soundprint is. These techniques produced an innovative and completely personalized poster campaign.
