2Some Friday Fun from BETCEuroRSCG. Battle your way through art directors, creatives, account managers, and the dreaded client to win your Quest for the Idea. This neat little interactive video game may not be quite so much fantasy gaming, and more busman’s holiday for some.

Thanks to @PatrickRiot from @arts_business for pointing us to this creative way of securing new clients. Googling yourself is a guilty little pleasure for many, for Alec Brownstein it was a route to his dream job.

![From Piccadilly (Gardens) to Mayfair. This week Japanese architect Tadao Ando completed his ‘Silence’ Fountain on Mount Street in London.
.
The aqua oval, constructed of flat glass blocks, is designed to “create a space within which various dialogues and interrelationships [can be] initiated”. The fountain is central to a £10m rejuvenation of Mayfair.
.
Our Manchester readers may also be interested in comparing the Silence Fountain to one of Ando’s former projects, the Piccadilly Gardens Pavillion, completed in 2002 as part of the Piccadilly Gardens redevelopment.
