"ADVERTISING IS THE GREATEST ART FORM OF THE TWENTIETH CENTURY"
~Marshall McLuhan
To which we may add, "and retro is in"
and "frugal is sexy"

Developed by Radical Departures in partnership with Atlas Obscura, we proudly present Bikini Lines (V2.0)

Bikini Lines is a meta take on the notion that Advertising is Art, composed of  3 synergistic aspects: 
1. limited,  globally unique exclusive ad space on the Cactus Dome,
2. an unrestricted, one-of-a-kind puzzle to be solved with a $50,000 USD grand prize, and, 
3. an exciting documentary film that's part clue, part adventure & part travelogue.

Think of us as an indie media company selling a dynamic,  highly unique & very limited product. Enjoy//

1. Ad aspect The 107m wide historically significant Cactus Dome was built to contain the radioactive debris from Bikini & surrounding atolls. It is composed of 357 giant concrete panels. We have exclusive permission to paint these panels, and we've decided to turn them into unique advertising space viewable in Google Earth. Quantities, as you can see, are limited to 357 spaces//
2. Game aspect If you have an internet connection you can play. Embedded within the 357 concrete panels is a $50,000 USD skill-based cryptographic challenge designed to motivate heavy web traffic to your Twitter account {that is, if you've purchased one of the 357 panels}
Yes, your Twitter account effectively becomes a highly visible game piece. Huzzah!
3. Movie aspect The whole project is tied together with a high quality, CC-licensed film that stands alone as an exciting documentary detailing the Cactus Dome's storied history while also hinting at online gameplay. Every facet of the project is thus designed as a meta take on advertising as art; a three-way secret handshake. And yes, there are still charities involved.

For those looking for the first iteration of the Bikini Lines project; it has been banished to the land of wind & ghosts.
We gave it a shot, but unfortunately philanthropy is no match for capitalism.
We appreciate your efforts, support & interests & feel that you'll appreciate what we're trying to accomplish with V2.0.

And to those kind souls who stood strong by us: you shall be thanked superfluously in the upcoming doc.
