Fred & Farid New York's new campaign for Louis XIII Cognac features a song recorded by Pharrell Williams that will be released in 100 years, but only if humans have stepped up to tackle global warming. The only version of the track was recorded on clay vinyl, made from soil from the Cognac region, and will be stored in a safe in the brand's cellars, protected from everything except flooding.
