Unlogo is a web service that eliminates logos and other corporate signage from videos. On a practical level, it takes back your personal media from the corporations and advertisers. On a technical level, it is a really cool combination of some brand new OpenCV and FFMPEG functionality. On a poetic level, it is a tool for focusing on what is important in the record of your life rather than the ubiquitous messages that advertisers want you to focus on.
In short, Unlogo gives people the opportunity to opt out of having corporate messages permanently imprinted into the photographic record of their lives.
Unlogo is a participatory project that needs your help - participate now! We are collecting videos that contain logos and illustrations of logos to make the filter stronger.

this is awesome! The first thing that came to my mind was replacing product brands with generics images, like in RepoMan
