OFFF 2009 will be held on 7,8,9 May in Lisbon and it’s a International Festival for Post-Digital Creation Culture. The three-day festival showcases top digital artists, web, print and interactive designers, motion graphics studios, and new music adventurous. OFFF festival provides insight into all culture media platforms.

I enjoyed this year’s edition, great mixture of speakers and sessions, good atmosphere and alot of creativity. Here’s some photos from OFFF 2008 and see you at OFFF 2009.

Then again, maybe they wanted people to do more exercise when walking. hmmm.

The office didn’t have anything that stood out, the view outside was great but you couldn’t differentiate one room from another except for the people in it (and their personal items) .

It was pretty boring and without surprise, creativity didn’t have a strong presence. Some may say “it wasn’t needed, anyway.” but the thing is, your working environment has a direct influence on your state of mood, your happiness and your productivity. Check for example, Carson’s ideas for their office.

Fortunately there are a lot of places in Lisbon to get inspired, the sun is most of the time shiny with nice weather, there’s outdoor cafes, some parks, nice museums (with free collections to watch) and the riverside is very nice to walk.

Sometimes the best way to get an idea or solve a problem is just getting out of the office for a while and comeback fresh.
