LifeStyles: Invest in Safer Sex by FCB/SIX
- Location:
Just like playing the market, playing the field comes with risk. That’s the creative spark behind a new stock market-inspired platform from FCB/SIX for sexual wellness brand LifeStyles. The project, called “Publicly Traded” uses real-time Australian search activity around sexually transmitted infections (STIs) to generate “stock” chart visualizations, which drive dynamic online pricing for its products, making condoms more affordable when transmission is on the rise.
Launching in the Australian market, the new “STI Index” is determined by Google Search data around six key sexually transmitted infections: Chlamydia, HIV, syphilis, herpes, gonorrhea and HPV. The platform is driven by three real-time Australian search behaviours: STI names (e.g., searching “herpes”), symptoms (e.g., searching “painful urination”), and by geographic region (where those searches are happening).
The campaign comes as STI rates across Australia have increased significantly in the past decade, with cases of gonorrhoea more than tripling between 2008 and 2017, and chlamydia cases increasing more than five times, according to data from the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare.
