MTV and hp have teamed up to create a global cross-promo campaign which places art and design centre stage. Fresh from their innovative adventures with the bfi and National Gallery, hp are using the MTV platform to engage new consumers.

MTV EngineRoom revolves around 6 creative challenges for international teams using hp gear. Challenges include interpreting time travel using digital media, designing websites for indie rockers, and mash-ups of college music.

And for the next challenge…

We’ve had Dell’s artist-designed laptops, now hp are taking personalisation to the next level. The Notebook Design Contest asks users to submit designs for a limited edition laptop, which Joe Public will vote on to select a winner.

This is your Engine Room challenge.
Use your art to make your mark globally! Design unites. It’s one of the most personal ways we communicate with each other through art; it transcends language and culture. We invite you to submit your best designs for a chance to create the next global special edition HP notebook. Whether you’re classic or modern, cosmic or grounded, explosive or minimal, show the world what you’ve got!
