This seeems to be a viral for Creative Spark. It certainly was not used by Microsoft UK and the equation solves to a phone number which is not dialable in the UK.

Heh, I know creative spark.. I also used to do the chipshop awards website years ago.. anyway the artwork is generally from pitches that were rejected.. some of them are really good, I think theres probably a lot of entries that weren’t actually pitched.. just made for a laugh for the website.

But yea, the idea is copied, the design is clean however .
