Google Creative Lab, Wieden + Kennedy, and R/GA each won a Cyber Grand Prix at the 2011 Cannes Lions on Wednesday—for an Arcade Fire video, the Old Spice response campaign on YouTube, and the "Pay With a Tweet" social-media currency system, respectively.

     The Arcade Fire video, called "The Wilderness Downtown," was a collaboration among Chris Milk, Aaron Koblin, Google Creative Lab, B-Reel and @radical.media. The interactive music video, for the Arcade Fire song "We Used to Wait," had you enter your hometown address, which it then used to construct a personalized video splicing together windows of film with shots of your home.
