Chloé Quenum + Adrian Dan: Minimally Invasive 26.02 --- 26.3.2015 opening / february 26, 2015 / 19:00h Galeria Nicodim Bucharest Cantacuzino Palace Nr. 141, Victoria Street 010 071 Bucharest, Sector 1 Romania The drudgery of creative professionalism. A mix---up in the wash. Your best black shirt now looks like the skin of an old bronze statue, weepy with corrosion. There’s that jacket that makes you look interesting. Some tchotchkes on the desk. The obsolete deftness with which you made emoticons, now quaint as shorthand, or flag semaphore. Hopping from capital---to---capital, the same sleek wooden angles backed by a different iconic skyline at the best hotel in . Thumbing through pictures of an old crush on your phone, some old notes from a previous “project” tucked away until they are of use again. Maybe it’s time for a new shelf, one that angles just so.... Of all the shelves being built in the world, surely there is one that is just right. Surely someone has thought of you. There’s always time to rearrange the furniture; the fettered sticks that make up letters and words; the rows of images that don’t make a story. Adrian Dan (born 1985 in Constanta, Romania) works and lives in Paris. Adrian graduated as MA (honors) in 2011 at Ecole Nationale Superieure des Beaux Arts (ENSBA) in Paris. He had solo exhibitions in Paris and Bucharest, participated in group exhibitions in Brussels, Bucharest and Paris and is currently one of six researchers in residence at Marfa, Texas. Chloe Quenum (born 1983 in Paris, France) works and lives in Paris. She studied art at the Ecole Nationale Superieure des Beaux Arts (ENSBA) in Paris until 2011. She has had solo exhibitions in Amsterdam and Los Angeles, participated in group exhibitions at Palais de Tokyo, CA2M in Madrid, and "Supernaturel" curated by Neil Beloufa at Fondation Ricard, and is included in Le Nouveau Festival at Centre Pompidou coming May 2015. .

Super Duper Semaphore Or, As We Like to Call It
Super Duper Semaphore Or, as we like to call it ... Flag Texting! Hello Lieutenants ... You can have a whole lot of fun with just a couple of hand flags. Even if you don’t have actual flags, you can make your own using items found around your home, like tea towels, or even two smelly old socks tied to some sticks! As long as you’re having fun ... be inventive. What’s it all about? Well, believe it or not, a great way for ships near (in range of) each other or ships wanting to communicate to the land is to use ‘Flag Semaphore’. It’s a bit like sending a text message ... but with your arms. It has been used for hundreds of years on both land and sea (from the sea, red and yellow flags are used). The word semaphore is Greek for ‘Sign-bearer’ Here’s how it works… Each letter of the alphabet has its own arm position (plus a few extras that we will cover in later ranks). Once you can remember these, you can send loads of hidden messages to your friends and family. Check these out ... ABCDEFG HIJKLM NOPQR STUVWX YZ How cool is that? To send a message the ‘sender’ gets the attention of the ‘receiver’ by waving their arms (and flags) by their side in an up and down motion (imagine flapping your arms like a bird). Don’t worry if you make mistakes or the receiver translates your signals into silly words - we’ve had lots of fun practicing this, and it will take time to become a Super Signaller! Are you ready to send your message? One letter at a time? Remember to pause between each letter and a bit longer between words to accurately get your message through.

The ruling in the dispute between Hindu and Muslim groups paves the way for the construction of a Hindu temple on the site in the northern town of Ayodhya, a proposal long supported by Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s ruling Hindu-nationalist party. Yesterday’s judgment, which is likely to be viewed as a win for Modi’s Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and its backers, was criticized as unfair by a lawyer for the Muslim group involved in the case. However, the group’s leader said ultimately it would accept the ver- dict and called for peace between India’s majority Hindus and Muslims, who constitute 14 percent of its 1.3 billion people. In 1992, a Hindu mob destroyed the 16th-century Babri Mosque on the site, triggering riots in which about 2,000 people, most of them Muslims, were killed across the country.

Semaphore Worksheet
SEMAPHORE WORKSHEET Semaphore History: Flag semaphore is a system for conveying information at a distance by means of visual signals with handheld flags, rods, disks, paddles, or occasionally bare or Dùng Morse trong sinh hoạt Phong Trào gloved hands invented by a Frenchman, Claude Chappe in 1793. - Trong sinh hoạt mật mã Semaphore được dùng liên Information is encoded by the position of the flags; it is read when the flag is in a lạc khi ở xa tầm tiếng nói; đặc biệt trong các Hành fixed position. Different letters are represented by holding flags or lights Trình Đức Tin trại. outstretched in different positions around a circle. Prior to 1793, Chappe had - Ðặc điểm của Semaphore là để luyện tinh thần đồng experimented with a number of telegraph designs along with his brother, but đội; cùng học, cùng chơi, cùng truyền tin. these proved less than successful. The semaphore telegraph that Chappe designed consisted of a large pivoted horizontal beam, with two smaller bars attached at the ends, looking rather like a person with outstretched hands holding signal flags. The position of the horizontal beam could be altered, as well as the angle of the indicator bars at the ends. Chappe had developed the semaphore system to be used in the French revolution, to transmit messages between Paris and Lille, which was near the war front. In August 1794, Chappe's semaphore system delivered a message to Paris of the capture of Conde-sur-l'Escaut from the Austrians, in less than an hour. This success led to more semaphore telegraph lines being built, radiating in a star pattern from Paris.

On the Subject of Odd One Out
Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes Mod Odd One Out On the Subject of Odd One Out One of these things is not like the others! One of these things just doesn’t belong! There are six buttons on the module which may display a variety of things directly on the button or in the display whilst hovering over a button. Five of the buttons, referred to below as the “good buttons”, satisfy a specific property which is described in the table below. Press the button that doesn’t belong — the “odd one out” — to move on to the next stage. The current stage is indicated by LEDs at the top of the module. Once 5 stages have been completed, press the button that has had the correct answer a unique number of times to disarm the module. You may long-press any button to reset the module back to stage 1. Display set Instructions Depending on the color of the LED to the right of the display: Red LED: The good buttons form a sequence of letters with equal distance in the alphabet, wrapping around from Z back to A. Yellow LED: The good buttons, when read in reading order, form a five-letter English word that is encoded using Atbash cipher. In this cipher, A↔Z, B↔Y, C↔X, etc. Green LED: The good buttons, when read in reading order, form a five-letter English word that is encoded using ROT13. In this Letters cipher, A↔N, B↔O, C↔P, etc. Turquoise LED: The good buttons have letters whose Morse code begins with the same two symbols.

What's the Secret?
Experience IT! Activity What’s the Secret? What Is IT! During World War II, a group of Navajos were recruited into the United States Marine Corps to be a secret weapon. The unique Navajo language was unbreakable and used as a cryptic code to quickly transfer messages back and forth. This strategy resulted in the winning of important battles such as the Battle of Iwo Jima. There are many different ways to transmit codes such as through visual signs, light, sound, touch, or even using various types of wave energy. For Decipher example, the blind use a form of code called Braille the code! to read. Braille is a pattern of raised dots that represent numbers and letters instead of print. Blind people ‘read’ the code with their fingers through the sense of touch. Codes can be sent through a telegraph machine in a series of electronic waves or pulses, too.
