Figuratively Speaking: "Love: From Cave To Keyboard, Imagined By Pepsi®" Explores History Of Non-Verbal Communication In New Interactive Exhibit
Global World Emoji Day Celebration With Maggie Gyllenhaal And LION BABE PURCHASE, New York, July 14, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- #PEPSIMOJI -- From hieroglyphics to pictograms, conversations have certainly evolved – yet throughout history, non-verbal communication has continued to transcend borders, connect cultures and speak volumes, without ever uttering a word. Today, communication around the world has been emojified with the whimsical, emotion brimming and visually surprising rotund digital images moving beyond just the keyboard. In celebration of World Emoji Day on July 17th and the brand's global #PepsiMoji campaign, Pepsi® is opening an interactive exhibit that follows how love has been communicated through the ages.

"Inspired by the communication currency of today's digital culture and our very own emoji, the iconic Pepsi globe, and the more than 1,000 proprietary PepsiMoji designs created for our global PepsiMoji program – we're bringing a unique and fun perspective on visual language and cultural conversation with this immersive exhibit," said Carla Hassan, SVP Global Brand Management, Global Beverage Group, PepsiCo. The limited engagement exhibit carries attendees through a variety of communication mediums, including:
This year, Pepsi took the world's global language – emojis – offline inviting consumers to "Say It With Pepsi" by unleashing over 1,000 proprietary PepsiMoji designs in more than 100 markets connecting people around the world through unique and provocative ways.
