Semblanza - eduardo warnholtz ArcticPhoto- Facts The Komi people are the native inhabitants of the Komi Republic and the neighbouring areas The Republic, which in its current form was established in 1992, covers an area of about 415,900 square kilometres that is about twice the size of Britain. It is situated to the west of the Ural Mountains on the East European Plain. About 70% of its area is covered by forest and 15% of it is swamp. There are around 345,000 Komi making them one of the larger groups of native people in the Russian north. Language The Komi language belongs to the Ural family of languages which has two branches: Finno-Ugrian and Samoyedic. Daily Life The traditional economy of the Komi was based on hunting, fishing and trapping for fur as well as some cattle breeding and other agriculture. Hunting was widespread especially in the Upper Vychegda, Pechora, and Udira Komis. Food Transport Due to the numerous lakes and rivers, waterways were the main routes of transportation and communication. Religion Clothing

Photo, comparer les prix photo L'évolution de l'appareil photo Depuis les premières tentatives de reproduction datant du XIIIe siècle, l'idée de pouvoir immortaliser un moment unique n'a rien perdu de son attrait. Un appareil photo actuel n'a cependant plus grand chose à voir avec la chambre noire ou Camera Obscura d'antan, même si celle-ci posait les principes de base de la photographie en concentrant les rayons lumineux à travers un petit trou pour les afficher sur une surface de projection. Le principe de la photo et la complexité des modèles d'appareils - comme par exemple ceux qui sont proposés par les fabricants leaders du marché comme Canon – ont évidemment subi d'importantes améliorations. On trouve ainsi aujourd'hui des modèles à double lentille qui permettent la prise de clichés en 3D, et l'usage de la chambre noire s'est singulièrement raréfié depuis l'avènement du numérique. L'appareil photo numérique, un produit phare On trouve aujourd'hui peu de foyers qui ne possèdent pas d'appareil photo numérique.

Julien Salaud, l'animal hybride sur Culturopoing Artiste étonnant, à la démarche foncièrement originale, Julien Salaud a mis l’animal au centre de son travail. Un animal qu’il pare, transforme, modifie, jusqu’à en faire un être hybride, à la fois fascinant et effrayant. Ce chantre du chamanisme, cet adepte des autres cultures, s‘est vu confier récemment une des salles du nouveau Palais de Tokyo et expose actuellement au Loft de la Galerie Suzanne Tarasiève. Julien Salaud est un cas à part dans le panorama des jeunes artistes français d’aujourd’hui, une sorte d’OVNI, un garçon dont le travail ne se rattache à aucune tendance ni à aucune école établie. A ce parcours professionnel en zigzags se greffe – mais bien sûr les deux sont intimement liés – un parcours personnel douloureux que l’artiste raconte en détail et avec beaucoup de franchise sur son blog (blog.julien-salaud.info). Quelle autre alternative à une telle crise existentielle que le repli sur soi, la vie intérieure, en somme, la création ?

View More… COLT + RANE El desayuno de Jonathan Franzen >> Vano oficio Foto crédito: storuman Un encuentro de escritores no tiene por qué ser distinto a un encuentro de plomeros o proctólogos. Supongo que todos son una feria de vanidades o egos revueltos, como diría Juan Cruz; en todos el tema principal de conversación en el desayuno o en el bus de traslado es el dinero; las conferencias pueden ser aburridas o divertidas según el ánimo del expositor y la percepción del oyente; de todos los invitados regresarán luego a sus casas para hacer lo que siempre han hecho, sin mayor variación, dejando atrás, en el aeropuerto, la idea de "comunidad" que existía hacía solo unos instantes, mientras se despidían en lobby del hotel. Del 26 al 29 de Enero, la ciudad colombiana de Cartagena de Indias volverá a recibir al Hay Festival. Recuerdo la vez que me tocó ir a Cartagena. Leo que el sábado 28 Juan Gabriel Vásquez entrevistará a Jonathan Franzen, y de inmediato mi memoria viaja a la entrevista pública en el Hay Festival Xalapa 2011 entre Eduardo Lago y Richard Ford.
