Take a look at these! Last year, Wieden + Kennedy London launched the Nokia Music Almighty Headset Competition which invited people to design a Nokia Bluetooth headset inspired by their favorite song. The winning designs have now been made into fully functioning headsets that will be showcased at flagship stores all around thew world. All the headsets will ultimately be returned back to their creator. Man, I was hoping to sport the Thriller ones! The panel of judges, which included Dick Powell, Eddi Yip, Tej Chauhan and Felix Buxton (Basement Jaxx), sorted through over 7,500 entrants to pick these top five winners. Here they are from concept to creation:
