  • Eurovision-Ul a Murit
    Opinii Eurovision-ul a murit... modificată, totul petrecându-se la un concurs care ar trebui să fie eminamente muzical, pentru că tinerii de azi nu cunosc aceste drame ale trecutului. De 2 ori pe scena Nu-i vorbă, asta s-a întâmplat de câteva ediţii, dar finalei Eurovision, o dată ajungând chiar pe locul 3, ultima le-a pus capac (“la sicriu”, cum spunea cu umor alături de Paula Seling, cu piesa “Playing with Fire”, cineva). Aproape că nu ne mai vine a crede că acesta a interpretul Ovi crede, absolut surprinzător, că România fost lansat ca un concurs MUZICAL! Cu ce melodii ar trebui să se inspire din succesul Ucrainei, dar ne triumfau pe vremuri ABBA, Johnny Logan, Sandie punem întrebarea, pe drept cuvânt: ce “subiect” ar trebui Shaw, Gigliola Cinquetti, Cliff Richard, Toto Cutugno, să alegem din tragediile istorice prin care au trecut Mary Hopkin, pentru a ne rezuma doar la câteva românii, pe cele din Ardealul ocupaţiei horthyste sau exemple! Măcinată de jocuri geo-politice nici măcar epurările din Bugeac şi Bucovina de Nord? Evident, este ascunse, competiţia a decăzut an de an din punct de doar o constatare tristă, sperând că de la ediţia viitoare Eurovision va redeveni ceea ce trebuie Ucraina să fie, un concurs al cântecelor frumoase şi atât. Iată ce declară Ovi ziarului “Ring”: “Piesa câştigătoare are un puternic mesaj politic, s-a simţit asta chiar şi la interpretare. Anul viitor ar trebui să ne gândim şi noi la un astfel de mesaj cu impact. Personal, mi-ar fi plăcut să câştige Australia, dar chiar şi aici e o problemă: mă întreb ce caută această ţară într-un concurs european? Eurovision a devenit o scenă pe care fiecare vine şi-şi spune oful, fie că vorbim de anumite orientări sexuale, cum s-a întâmplat în anii trecuţi, fie că vorbim despre mesaje politice.

This edition has profiles of over 100 venture-capital-backed companies from ten distinct sectors of the British economy, all fantastic examples of what can be achieved with ingenuity, hard work and the right support. Venture capital has long been a backer of innovative businesses, and such skills and investment are needed now more than ever before. As the UK recovers from the worst economic recession in over 50 years, it is vital that entrepreneurship is encouraged in all its forms and across all industries, from life sciences to finance, from digital media to online security.

  • L'italia E L'eurovision Song Contest Un Rinnovato
    La musica unisce l'Europa… e non solo C'è chi la definisce "La Champions League" della musica e in fondo non sbaglia. L'Eurovision è una grande festa, ma soprattutto è un concorso in cui i Paesi d'Europa si sfidano a colpi di note. Tecnicamente, è un concorso fra televisioni, visto che ad organizzarlo è l'EBU (European Broadcasting Union), l'ente che riunisce le tv pubbliche d'Europa e del bacino del Mediterraneo. Noi italiani l'abbiamo a lungo chiamato Eurofestival, i francesi sciovinisti lo chiamano Concours Eurovision de la Chanson, l'abbreviazione per tutti è Eurovision. Oggi più che mai una rassegna globale, che vede protagonisti nel 2016 43 paesi: 42 aderenti all'ente organizzatore più l'Australia, che dell'EBU è solo membro associato, essendo fuori dall'area (l’anno scorso fu invitata dall’EBU per festeggiare i 60 anni del concorso per via dei grandi ascolti che la rassegna fa in quel paese e che quest’anno è stata nuovamente invitata dall’organizzazione). L'ideatore della rassegna fu un italiano: Sergio Pugliese, nel 1956 direttore della RAI, che ispirandosi a Sanremo volle creare una rassegna musicale europea. La propose a Marcel Bezençon, il franco-svizzero allora direttore generale del neonato consorzio eurovisione, che mise il sigillo sull'idea: ecco così nascere un concorso di musica con lo scopo nobile di promuovere la collaborazione e l'amicizia tra i popoli europei, la ricostituzione di un continente dilaniato dalla guerra attraverso lo spettacolo e la tv. E oltre a questo, molto più prosaicamente, anche sperimentare una diretta in simultanea in più Paesi e promuovere il mezzo televisivo nel vecchio continente.

The two principal techniques materialize his warped ideas using of Anamorphosis are ‘perspective perspex, steel, resin, or copper.’[3] (oblique) and mirror (catoptric).’ [1] The Technique that I will be discussing is most familiar to relate to oblique Anamorphosis. It can be created using Graphic design techniques of perspective and using innovative print and precise design strategies. My first interest in anamorphic perspective was when producing an entry for the ‘Design Museum; 2014 Competition brief: Surprise.’[2] The theme of Surprise led me to discover the astonishment that viewers of anamorphic perspective art felt. Artists such as Jonty Hurwitz, joseph Egan and hunter Thomson; all of which are recognised for their modern approach to Anamorphosis, also created this amazement with their art.

  • The University of Bergen Department of Linguistic, Literary and Aesthetic Studies
    The University of Bergen Department of Linguistic, Literary and Aesthetic Studies DIKULT350 Master’s Thesis in Digital Culture Spring 2017 The viral art effect How virality and viral art as a part of our social networks can affect our society and how we perceive interfaces. Lasse Huldt Pedersen Abstract ___________________________________________________________________________ The purpose of this study is to achieve a better understanding of virality and viral art beyond an object-oriented approach. Today our everyday lives are increasingly incorporated with Internet technology and our online representations of ourselves, and the social media platforms have become an influential source of information where they provide us with trending/viral content that shows up in abundance in our newsfeeds. Questions regarding how we are influenced by all this information arise all the time, with an ongoing debate about whether or not the Internet is a form of societies of control. The Internet as an intricate and sophisticated network that gives us the option of working from home and managing a lot of activities and actions without even leaving the bed in the morning, comes with a price. The cost is freedom, as our actions become monitored and a demand of availability becomes constant. As virality and viral art can spread very fast through the networks that the Internet consist of, they become parts of important events and topics. This cross-disciplinary study of the properties of virality and viral art as allegorical devices argues that viral art should not be understood as a standalone object but a combination of many elements present and part of our interaction online and how it can affect society.
