MQ week 2


As any student at Macquarie University may have noticed this week, an invasion has begun: the Steve Jobs invasion.

Yes you guessed correctly, for our week 2 campaign we chose to do Time Magazine with Steve Jobs’ face on the front cover, thus enveloping Macquarie Universities notice boards, whiteboards, buildings and pillars with the face of the renowned billionaire.








We learned from last week where our most popular spots were for pamphlet and poster tag distribution, which were on the student pillar outside the old library, noticeboards around the central courtyard and outside the Mason Theatre of E7B.

The blue folders, however, proved to be the most popular!

Unfortunately, the student noticeboards of Macquarie have a reputation of being too ‘up to date’ i.e. if you post something on a board in the morning, it’s sure to be covered up by the afternoon. Therefore we’ve gotten into the habit of having to revisit the noticeboards the next day only to find our posters buried underneath. But as is in real life, with far more resources at his disposal and wider product distribution, Jobs was able to seize the wall back the next day.

As those of you who are working across the Sydney campuses may have noticed, Sydney has become drenched in rain. Most of the fabulous chalking that the Macquarie team has placed all around the main walkways of the campus has been washed away! So our second team has resorted to whiteboarding as many rooms as possible. Lets just hope the tutors don’t clear it all away!


Hope you’re all going well on your campaign! J
