Abduction – Multimedia

This multimedia experiment shows what can be done when limitations are enforced as a way to encourage creativity. The team at Lusion, a digital creative agency, challenge themselves to create one of these a month – where two to three creatives come together to make something. The catch – they can only spend up to two hours per day on it. This is such a great way to learn quickly and not be too precious about things – we love it!

You can try out their experiment here.
