This is a genius interactive poster designed by Roland Tianco–yes, it’s physically interactive, and you get your hands dirty with ink and dirt! As you handle the poster and open it from the envelope, you can’t help but get your hands dirty. That’s what makes it more fun! Smear the paper with the ink and dirt and you get the real message of the poster: ‘The future belongs to the few of us still willing to get our hands dirty’. Genius!
