Make Russia Pay was a digital exhibition held in Brussels (Belgium) in December 2023, that showcased Ukrainian call for confiscation of frozen Russian assets. The event was organized by The International Center of Ukrainian Victory and The National Interests Advocacy Network ANTS. We were responsible for visual[…]
Marked the 100th day of Russia’s war in Ukraine with series of posters mocking Putin. The idea of the creative communication was developed for a book dedicated to unsuccessful Tinder experiences ’69 Bad Dates’, and presented on February 23d, but then was put away due to the obvious reason. But in May, the book’s[…]
In previous articles we were comparing a communicating campaign to the process of seducing, since there is a similar task — to conquer the audience. By conquering we mean enchanting people, forming affection, making them fall in love with you (your project). Capturing the audience’s positive attention, growing their interest, taking a place in their heart,[…]
Let’s confess: great sex, as well as a great event, is a rarity. It’s even safe to say that it’s the event in itself. Analysis of its ingredients could be really helpful and demonstrative, for there are actually much more similarity in these two things than one could think—and it’s not limited by ‘it’s hard as fuck!’ meme. So, even if you will never organize any events, armed with this knowledge, you will be able at least to re-organize your sex life in a better way. : )
PLAN B Festival of Social Innovations and New Music The main, pretty obvious, idea behind this name is the idea of unkillable optimism: whatever happens, do not give up. For there is always a solution for every problem, there’s always an exit, a perspective from which the glass is always half full, there is always[…]

‘New York City officially passes bill to create a nightlife office. There will also be a ‘nightlife director,’ whose position is similar to the ‘night czar’ or ‘night mayor’ position in other cities. Their main goal is to advocate for the city’s nightlife by serving as a point of contact between the city and those[…]
The Kazantip Republic Presents Nikola Frantzevich Movie Studio The Кazantipian Movie Studio n.a. Nikola Frantsevich was founded in 2010 as the embodiment of long-lasting cinematographic ambitions of the Republic. Not that the Republic had longed to become a new Bollywood, but it would have been silly and thriftless not to use the richness of nature and[…]
The Kazantip Republic through the eyes of normal people When it comes to what other, relatively more normal people think of our imaginary world, it’s a big international annual club culture festival held in summer at the Black Sea coast of Crimea, Ukraine (Russia’s neighboring, ex-USSR country). It starts in late July and ends in[…]
What is Kazantip? Huh, as if we know the answer! We’ve been groping for it since 1992 and it’s still somewhere out there. We hope, you too couldn’t satisfy the most important question of your life ‘Who am I?’ in a few words. And we don’t mean your name or occupation. What we know for a[…]
The concept of Fast Married made up back in 2003 was the development of the concept of the Kazantip Republic — if there’s a state and a constitution, there is also an institute of love and marriage that is meant to be regulated somehow. Since the Kazantip Republic was a realized utopia, an imaginary land striving for more beautiful[…]
