smaller thus stronger

One of ro's newspapers, adevarul is changing its format.
Text beside, desperately trying to look handwritten reads:
#if smaller then stronger
#smaller means more aerodynamics thus it will hit stronger.
What do you reckon?
I mean nice try guys, but even if smaller is cooler, there's so much more that you could have done with paper handwriting and smaller newspaper.

the future is here? and now?

Discursul presedintelui suspendat azi.
Tre sa imi iau un telefon mai bun.
Naiiis going guys. Foarte desteapta mutare. Ma intreb daca parlamentarii din echipa nationala de facut legi s-au gandit la potentialul violent al mutarii lor.

Pana una alta domnul presedinte a livrat niste cuvinte la care probabil nu s-a gandit mult.
Loc de intalnire? Pai imi place domnule. Si celor de acolo le-a placut ideea. O sa faceti intalniri saptamanale ? Lunare?

vlad nanca deseneaza frumos

Am fost azi la galeria noua, unde domnul Vlad Nanca locuieste cu familia lui.
Timp de 2 saptamani. Revers la Home Gallery ( un proiect al lui Vlad in care casa artistului era din cand in cand galerie )
Dar nu stiam ca Vlad deseneaza asa frumos.

lost room

Cand a fost ultima data cand v-ati uitat la un serial? La tv? In sensul de urmarit. De incercat sa nu ratezi nici un episod?
Eu nu m-am mai uitat de foarte foarte mult. Din varii motive: unul dintre ele fiind ca n-am avut tv mult timp si nici nu m-a interesat foarte tare sa-mi iau unu, plus cele evidente gen calitatea chestiilor pe care le primesti de le tv e asa cum e.

M-a prins lost room aka camera disparuta. M-a prins foarte tare. Si m-a surprins foarte tare. E un sf de bun simt in care magia dumnezeul si forta vin din obiecte absolut obisnuite. De camera ordinara de motel. Ele fac diverse chestii si combinate intre ele fac alte chestii.
Nu m-a deranjat nimic la serialul asta. Ba chiar am admirat faptul ca are doar 3 episoade. Adica ok avem o poveste de spus, o s-o spunem fara sa ne lungim si fara prea multe efecte speciale. Fara jeleu verde. Fara tranformari fantastice. Good.

Si mai sunt cateva detalii care iti clarifica tot. Obiectele nu fac altceva decat sa altereze realitatea. ok. Dupa care asa fara nici o legatura apare "zbor deasupra unui cuib de cuci" de Kevin Kesey.
Kevin Kesey este unul dintre primii care a testat si atestat beneficiile LSD. Hmmmm?
Oare miniserialul asta e facut de cineva care a incercat LSD intr-o camera de hotel? Si care after s-a gandit ca daca mai pune si putin scenariu peste numai bine iese ceva bun?
Oricum mi-a placut.

today's artist squarepusher iambic 5 poetry

miss sixteen

Noi n-avem nevoie de Muzeul bunurilor contrafacute ( ca sa fac o traducere mot a mot )

Noi suntem mai tari. Practica ne e cunoscuta. Cine n-a auzit de faimosii Didibao Adibas ? Insa la noi muzeul e pe strada. E interactiv.

Dar n-o sa-mi arunc jeansii miss sixteen. Sunt o pereche de jeansi bine facuti iar producatorii si-au dat silinta. Detaliile sunt perfecte.Si puse la locul lor.

In 2 e mai tare

Am vazut filmuletele asta.
Si mi-a sunat sloganul la tvr 2.
Sunt mai multe filmutzuri din aceeasi serie minuscule.


Adam, Eva si Marul Cunoasterii

"-O poveste despre Adam, Eva si incercarea lor de a pune mana pe marul cunoasterii. Cei doi sunt pusi in diferite situatii fictive, hotarati sa decida singuri ce este binele si raul.
Povestea nu are un final anume, mai ales ca ei nu reusesc sa guste din marul interzis.
In cazul de fata, nu a existat "izgonirea din Rai" sau ceea ce numim "pacatul originar"-


O poveste de Dragos Platon.
Nu cred ca le-am pus tocmai in ordine, dar daca citez sloganul ipod shuffle "life is random"

blogger's crisis

From time to time blogs I read go through some sort of crisis.
Like 1 authors don't write anymore or 2 they lack inspiration or 3 they don't know why they blog anymore or 4 or 5 or 6... or infinite combinations of reasons leading to this condition.
Let's call it blogger's crisis.

today's artist muse hysteria

no comment.

i'm sick and i love it

Reading this i realised that i have it.The design disease.via noisy decent graphics
From a long long time ago.
And I don' think there's a cure for it. I actually don't care about the cure.
Do you have it? How is it? First thing in a restaurant...check the design of the menu? Otherwise? How?
Do you take pictures of just letters or numbers? Just because you like them?
So I'm just a girl.

radu is green

my colleague radu turned green.
he initiated the radu green programme this morning.
how to recycle paper in 4 easy steps

4.if things, for various reasons don't work, just call radu and he'll sort things out for you.

IN2U

''She likes how he blogs, her texts turn him on. It's intense. For right now''

the text is real and it's for the new frag by calvin klein.eau de blogger.IN2U

"CK has actually branded them(13-25-year old market segment of technology users) 'technosexuals' and believe it or not, has copyrighted the term in case it catches on. The new fragrance is called CK in2u – note the ‘hip and cool’ use of texting language to appeal to the world’s youth."

When one has a lot of music, one forgets about it.Then, one day, one searches something and finds other things.Found this forgotten, brilliant bjork concert.
So this week's theme is female voice forgotten in my computer.
The harpist is just amazing. At one point, you'll see, i was afraid she's going to get fingerless.

can they do it?

Veteran designer Peter Molyneux has said that he wants to put love into his next game, Fable 2.

"We can do excitement, fear, achievement. Surely we can think about other emotions?"

"Everybody is talking about emotion, story, engagement and narrative," Mr Molyneux said. "We have tried to approach it in a different way. We are going to explore love."

Can they do it? Can you feel love from a virtual dog or a lover?

later edit: no visible connection apart from "game" in the meanwhile , until generating love, games can determine depression.

"Depressed people found their way to an average of 2.4 locations compared with 3.8 locations for healthy controls. Indeed, the more depressed a person was, the lower the score (The American Journal of Psychiatry, vol 164, p 516). Gould hopes the test may eventually provide a quantifiable measure of depression."

like it

To prove my theory that techmology itself is boring and what's intresting about it is how people use it here it comes:

"The SMS Guerilla Projector is a home made, fully functioning device that enables the user to project text based SMS messages in public spaces, in streets, onto people, inside cinemas, shops, houses… or limousines!"
This comes from London-based art and design practice Troika.
