The Challenge Your World 2009 “Video Challenge” winners were announced during the Challenge Your World live event, “Rendez-Vous 09″ in Montreal. “A Better Tomorrow” (directed by Nicholas Bentley) took the Jury’s Choice award, while Digital Kitchen Chicago’s Natural Re-sasters (helmed by Aaron Becker) won the People’s Choice vote.

In keeping with the overall goal of the Challenge Your World Video Challenge, both pieces tell an interesting tale about bettering our future though new and fun innovations.

potato

I’m very pleased to announce that two news films have been added to the Challenge Your World 20/20 project.

What’s Challenge Your World 20/20?

Each year, 20 video artists create 20 wild, whimsical, and unconventional machines that solve environmental issues. These videos reject the status quo, explore crazy ideas, and blast beyond boundaries.

The latest two additions, “Potato” and “Want|Need” come to us from Paris’ Moustache and Trango Interactive in Pakistan. Check them out on the Challenge Your World page or visit the Challenge Your World website for more information and to learn how you can get involved.
