Powers of Ten

Philip Morrison died Friday, April 22, at home, at the age of 89. A man that had a great influence on life as we know it. Being one of the men that made the Atomic Bomb (became a strong opposed of nuclear weapons after he visited Hiroshima). Morrison was widely known for his research and

Spring in Paris

The warm wind is playing with the seeds from the trees.

When in Paris…

One should visit Tour Eiffel. Well here I am. Went to the top and back again.The cliche is true I’m afraid. It’s an experience. It’s not the view that is impressing me. You are easily bored with small houses and people, losing you’re sense of depth. That it was build in 1889 blows me away.

Walking back to the hotel

Les Blogs ’05 (2)

The conference is done. It was super interesting and me and Luc captured all of it. We dind’t run out of tape or power. So great he was there to help me with his expertise.

Can’t wait to put it all video together get it in Flash and on the newly created website not-on.tv. So that a lot more than 250 people can enjoy this great content.

Les Blogs ’05

The first pannel of Les Blogs is about to start. I have all the camera’s set up. One for filming the presentation and the other for close ups of the speakers. Thanks Luc for helping me!

Every mistake is an opertunity to create

Looking at the performance of an artist at a party. Not a lot of people are paying attention to him making this painting. He is definitely concentrating on this work and seriously trying to create an autonomous work. He is giving it thought, makes mistakes, acting upon it, looking for balance and is definitely not

Thank you for your enlightened dress-code

Worn light-brown boots of suede, black jeans and and all flower dress with short sleeves showing you are red by nature. Being lightweight and over enthusiastically talking to gray middle-aged men. Not over the age of 25, English in Paris. Feeling comfortably the odd one out.

Buying tickets to go to Paris

I’m living in a world with a radius of a 10 minutes bike ride. Going from point A to B mostly wondering inside my head.

Thought I just drop in and buy those tickets to Paris, a quickie. Instead it’s going to be a long wait (500 and i’ve got 539). Looking forward to having human interaction instead of the hard reality of the internet booking-system.

Was the right decision. The guy at the counter was very helpfull, left a lot of money with him for some pieces of paper that will be worthless in a weeks time. An investment in a dream called publicspeeches.net. In Paris I will film the conference Les Blogs and publish the video on this site.

De Zwijger

Went though it today. They really ripped it’s guts out. Brute force. Totally unappealing right now, but like the idea of a multimedia complex and want to be part of it. If I’m not mistaken one of the founders of the foundation I know way back from the Aki.

Liquid lenses

There is a lot of innovation going on. A camera will be more and more part of phones and other devices. So making it small but good is quite the challenge and not to forget lucrative. Smile, You’re on Liquid Camera Sunny Bains – 13 april 2005 – link Why do good cellular telephones fall

De jongens genieten van Artis dus gaan we er regelmatig langs.

Apple launches a wireless Internet store

In Japan. The story itself isn’t that spectacular, but the statistic quoted below definitely was (for me anyway), Even though I know Japan is a trendsetter. In Japan, around 74 million people had subscriptions to one of the country’s three wireless Internet services as of the end of February, according to data from the Telecommunication

Current TV

Thanks to Marketingfacts I came across current.tv Looks great and there is a buzz around it. They call it Blog TV. The next big thing. And I must agree, it’s going to be. For radio everybody can start their own radiostation, this will be true for video as well. I think this will be much

The benefit of the doubt

I trying to give myself the benefit of the doubt. Not easy. Looking for objective judgement. That’s an illusion. Finding only the echo of my mind.

Roof quality

Enjoyed the afternoon sunshine. We talked our way though sex, manhood, beer, children to discuss Art. Something we all are closely involved in. Pieter put forward that art is about the personal path an artist takes. Seeing them make progress and excel makes it art. Peter found that art was about something new. What use

Lekker uit eten

Gister hoorde ik de hoofdredacteur van het magazine Lekker vertellen dat 150 keer uit eten gaan per jaar niet echt een pretje was. Het was afzien op momenten dat de bediening houterig was en een hel als het eten te wensen over liet. Ben ik toch blij dat ik nu bij Rams op de Wijtenbachstraat
