Broudy (1998) explains that memorisation does not result in an ability to solve problems (p.8). Quotation (exact words from the source) Broudy (1998) believes that “on the common criteria for schooling, our sample citizen has failed because he cannot replicate the necessary skill or apply the relevant principles” (p. 9).

DOCUMENTING SOCIAL INJUSTICE FotoEvidence Book Award Winner Javier Arcenillas Spain Sicarios: Latin American Assassins One of the most popular and respected professions in Latin America is that of the sicarios: the hit man or assassin. Prices are variable for killing someone and can range from as little as $20 up to tens of thousands. In Guatemala, Salvador and Mexico many young people, including minors, are seduced by the lure of easy money and the respect and fear that comes with the job. A hooded sicario threatens me for few seconds in zone 14 of Guatemala City. A sicario uses his gun to threaten Luis Esteban while demanding his money back. Hector Torre was shot in the head after an argument. A hand written sign "Danger" on the wall in Santa Rita shanty town in zone 11 of Guatemala City. Thirty-one year old Karina Marlene was gunned down with 6 shots from a taxi in zone 10 of Guatemala City. Carlos Vicio Gómez, a street corn vendor, was killed by two shooters using a machine gun at Colonia de la Paz, in Villanueva.
bpNichol's First Screening Introduction n 1983 and 1984, bpNichol used an Apple IIe computer and the Apple BASIC programming language to create First Screening, a suite of a dozen programmed, kinetic poems. He distributed First Screening through Underwhich, an imprint he started in 1979 with a small group of poets. However, the Apple IIe soon became obsolete and the poems became essentially inaccessible. The HyperCard version of First Screening was a careful re-creation and recoding of the original, and it extended the life of First Screening a few more years. So we are very happy to present to you four different versions of First Screening. The original DSK file of the Underwhich edition with a freely downloadable Apple IIe emulator (available for PCs and (maybe) Macs), along with scanned images of the printed matter distributed with the Underwhich edition. This project has taken us almost three years. The recovery started in 2004 when Lionel Kearns showed Jim Andrews the HyperCard version on an old Mac.

Trente ans après les néolibéraux sont de retour au pouvoir, l’Education publique et les droits de l’homme en particulier sont de nouveau menacés.

Michelle Teran / Ubermatic / Buscando al Sr. Goodbar Link to project website Winner of the Transmediale 2010 award . Prix Ars Electronica honorary mention. Shortlisted for the Future Everything award Winner of Turku2011 digital media & art grand prix award, Participative Media category “Buscando Al Sr. If the longitude and latitude coordinates are included with a video when publishing it on YouTube, then this video automatically appears on a GoogleEarth map and connects it to a physical location. A bus tour was organized by Michelle Teran, who visited Murcia repeatedly via GoogleEarth and started to get to know intimately some of the people living there through the YouTube videos they produced. In this way the audience on the bus witnessed short glimpses of what the city had to offer and started to meet some of the people living there. Through this intervention an intimate encounter was created between video producer and public by entering into people’s homes and the various sites where these videos were made.

La crise financière a provoqué l'envolée des dettes publiques. La crise de l'Euro est devenue un prétexte pour mettre en place une "gouvernance économique" ultralibérale qui imposera des politiques d'austérité pendant des années. Il existe pourtant des alternatives à ces politiques d'austérité, en commençant par l'introduction d'une taxe sur les transactions financières et une régulation drastique de la finance. Il est encore temps de dire non ! Faites circuler la pétition!
The Living: Amphibious Architecture Amphibious Architecture submerges ubiquitous computing into the water—the substance that makes up 90% of the Earth’s inhabitable volume and envelops New York City but remains under-explored and under-engaged. Two networks of floating interactive tubes, installed at sites in the East River and the Bronx River, house a range of sensors below water and an array of lights above water. The sensors monitor water quality, presence of fish, and human interest in the river ecosystem. The lights respond to the sensors and create feedback loops between humans, fish, and their shared environment. An SMS interface allows citizens to text-message the fish, to receive real-time information about the river, and to contribute to a display of collective interest in the environment. Instead of treating the rivers with a “do-not-disturb” approach, the project encourages curiosity and engagement. [Photos and video by The Living and Chris Woebken]
2 regio's 1 uitdaging // 2 regions 1 defi Amphibious Architecture Cie Bud Blumenthal/ H Y B R I D - Créations - Dentro por Fuera, Fuera por Dentro Un duo, un homme et une femme, tous les deux chorégraphes expérimentés, dont l’un vit à Bruxelles, l’autre à Séville. Partant du désir de Manuela Nogales d’expérimenter une création avec un autre chorégraphe, Dentro por Fuera, Fuera por Dentro confronte les deux chorégraphes interprètes à leur manière de travailler, de penser, de construire, de bouger, de sentir, de percevoir. Tous deux désireux de changer leurs habitudes et réflexes de création, ils décident de travailler ensemble, tantôt en Belgique, tantôt en Espagne. Chacun leur tour, ils amènent petit à petit une réflexion autour du contenu de leur création. Ici, nous ne demandons pas aux chorégraphes de renoncer à leurs formations, à leur acquis. En parcourant l'immense oeuvre des deux chorégraphes, on se demande comment l’un et l’autre vont pouvoir transposer et traduire les mouvements et figures emblématiques de chacun.
Stanza at futureplaces 2010 | FuturePlaces I was invited to go and talk and exhibit Sensity for Future Places 2010 in Portugal Sensity. This artwork gathers data from the city (environment) this is then made virtual and then this virtual city is represented as a visualisation of the real time space. Sensing Porto senses the environment to make live visualisation and sonification of the city of Porto. The sensors where laid out across the city to take a snapshot of one day in the life of the city. Sensity artworks are made from the data that is collected across the urban and environment infrastructure. The sensor networks can be moved from urban to rural setting, ( ie they are mobile) and different types of visualization can be made depending on the environment. The mother of big brother. Imagine walking out the door, and knowing every single action, movement, sound, micro movement, pulse, and thread of information is being tracked, monitored, stored, analyzed, interpreted, and logged.
