The Wimgo Project is a campaign of painful, brightly lit background, minimalist videos that explain why people love Oklahoma.

The videos feature captivating topics, such as: “How I Learned Tulsa Streets,” “Where I Like to Eat,” and “Why I Love Prison Rodeos.” Topics that make Oklahoma seem, well, ok.

This past Saturday, Tony, Clark Matthews and I went to the Norman Music Festival. Not only did we get to go as official members of the media (which prompted George Lang to ask us “Why are you all here?”), but we also got to bring along our friend Cardboard Jim. Later this week, we will document his wimgoy Norman Music Festival experience in our second edition of the Travels of Cardboard Jim.
Other than a train roaring by every few minutes, the Norman Music Festival was pretty damn fun and pretty damn cool. We would like to give a big thanks to the organizers for letting people from the new viral, untraditional media cover this event. “Thank Yous” also go out to:
• The nice security guard who let us sneak two cases of Miller Lite into the festival.
• The WIMGO gals above for giving Jim a FREE t-shirt. Jim asked them WTF is Wimgo, but they couldn’t answer.
• Ibuprofen and Gatorade
