Last night at the ceremony I livetweeted all Gold and Grand Prix winners in the categories above. If you weren’t following along at @luckthelady, here’s a breakdown of the Grand Prix winners.

Click on the category to see the full list of Gold, Silver and Bronze winners.

Media: Leo Burnett Sydney for “EOS Photochains,” Canon EOS DSLR cameras. A cadaver exquis-style execution where users can post images, then other photographers take a piece of that image to continue the chain with a photo of their own.

20,000 photos have been uploaded from around Australia to date, of which 35% were taken on competitors’ brands. Canon took this to mean had raised awareness among a new audience of potential clients. For its part, the EOS now holds 67% market share in Australia.

Clever lifestyle and digital medium integration work here by Leo Burnett.

Radio: No Grand Prix was given in this category because the campaign that merited it was a non-profit, and therefore ineligible.

With that said, it received a Gold for Best Use of Music and/or Sound Design instead. The agency was Leo Burnett Colombiana Bogota for “Helicopter,” Colombian Red Cross. Listen here.

Media agency of the year: Leo Burnett Sydney, trailed by Fischer Portugal in second place, and Lew’Lara TBWA Sao Paolo in third.

Outdoor: For the first time ever, two Grands Prix were given for Outdoor, for billboards and for ambient. The head judge said it is simply fairer to do it this way, and he isn’t wrong.

The Grand Prix, Billboards & Street Furniture went to Anomaly New York for Diesel’s “Be Stupid.” Here’s the “Official Be Stupid Philosophy” video; an example of the outdoor work is at the top left of this article.

Finally, the Grand Prix for Ambient went to Del Campo/Nazca Saatchi & Saatchi Buenos Aires for Andes’ “Teletransporter.” Loved this work! Each time I see it I crack a grin and do that lame rubberneck thing to see if everyone else feels that way too.

Would be a gas to see if girls ever used it.

Many adult children remember watching a father work sixty-hour weeks for decades so the family could have what he never did, then watched him die in his sixties without ever prioritizing his own happiness, and now see that same pattern quietly repeating in their own lives, under a different name.

Harvard researchers had 166 undergraduates rate their own pets on qualities like thoughtful, considerate and sympathetic, and the students who felt most chronically disconnected from other people scored their pets meaningfully higher on exactly those three traits, and no others.

University of Arizona researchers wired 79 people with a recorder sampling conversations every 12.5 minutes for four days and found the happiest had twice as many substantive conversations and a third as much small talk as the unhappiest, suggesting the discomfort was never a social deficit.

A landmark study found that Catholic nuns who wrote sparse, simple autobiographies in their early twenties, when they entered the convent in the 1930s, were far more likely to develop Alzheimer’s disease roughly six decades later, with about 80 percent of the low-complexity writers eventually developing the disease compared to only 10 percent of those whose youthful essays were dense with ideas
