Converse Dresses Down for High Impact User Campaign

Tomorrow on VH1, MTV and Comedy Central, among others, Converse will be launching the first leg of “Disruption.”

Guided by Anomaly, the campaign consists of nine :15 and :30 spots that marry “disruptive” — or at least interesting — messages to a passel of new artists.

We dig its simplicity, lack of major time investment on users’ parts, and the jam-pack of little factoids. For a taste, see Three Chords. It’s powerful, in its own little way. The featured little girl is from a band called Care Bears On Fire.

A contender for the Velvet Underground? Why not — at least post-Nico.
