      Venice waiting for a high tide, taken with a camera from the perspective of a dog. Yes, this is essential to understand, to change: learning to see things through the eyes of others. Even those of other living species. We are too often disrespectful tenants of this planet. [it] Una Venezia che aspetta l'acqua alta, ripresa con una telecamera dal punto di vista di un cane. Sì, questo è essenziale per capire, per cambiare: imparare a guardare le cose attraverso gli occhi degli altri. Anche quelli di altre specie viventi. Siamo spesso affittuari irrispettosi di questo pianeta. JANA STERBAK "Through the eye of the other" project by Bevilacqua La Masa Foundation and Teatro La Fenice Teatro La Fenice, Venice video "Waiting For High Water" Preview 27 February 2010, then from 12 March - 24 March 2010 link: www.janasterbak.com video: Urban Abstract by Musuta on vimeo.com [vimeo http://vimeo.com/7681282]

      Sono anni che seguo la musica dei Sigur Ros, ma è il loro modo di essere che mi incanta: islandesi, concludono i loro tour con concerti gratuiti nella loro terra, i loro video mostrano anziani e disabili sereni. La loro musica è il dolce e pesante suono della gioia e della vita. [en] I've enjoyed the music of Sigur Ros for years, but it's their way of being that fascinates me: Icelanders, they conclude their tour with free concerts in their homeland, their videos show elderly and disabled people. Their music is the sweet and heavy sound of joy and life. links: sigur-ros.co.uk - Sigur Rós on vimeo txt: FAQ from sigur-ros.co.uk
      there is a long silence in my copy of ( ), is this normal? yes, that's what it's supposed to be like. the abrupt end of track 4 is followed by 36 seconds of silence, which signifies the division of the album's two halves: the "sweet" half and the "heavy" half.

      Open source is a concept of free sharing of technical information that has been around for much longer than most of us would imagine. When we think of open source today, we usually think of software. As wonderful and widely used as open source software is, according to Linus Torvalds, "the future is open source everything." From foods and beverages to scientific and health research studies and advanced technological innovations, the world has turned to open source.

      The Known Universe takes viewers from the Himalayas through our atmosphere and the inky black of space to the afterglow of the Big Bang. Every star, planet, and quasar seen in the film is possible because of the world's most complete four-dimensional map of the universe, the Digital Universe Atlas that is maintained and updated by astrophysicists at the American Museum of Natural History. The new film, created by the Museum, is part of an exhibition, Visions of the Cosmos: From the Milky Ocean to an Evolving Universe, at the Rubin Museum of Art in Manhattan through May 2010.

      Switch: how to change things when change is hard

      txt: Switch: How to Change Things When Change Is Hard - amazon.com
      One of the most consistent findings in psychology is that people behave differently when their environment changes. When we’re in a place where people are quiet (church), we’re quiet. When we’re in a place where people are loud (stadiums), we’re loud. When we’re driving and the lanes narrow, we slow down. When they widen, we speed up again. This may seem obvious, but when we try to make change at work, we often make the mistake of obsessing about the people involved rather than their environment. Often the easiest way to drive change is to shape the environment.

      Vò di Brendola: un borgo nel mezzo delle zone industriali, che trattiene la grazia e la fatica della campagna veneta e le sue ville. Una sala gestita da persone per le persone, duecento posti. Una rassegna di musica internazionale e di teatro. Una gioia inaspettata di questo Veneto così piccolo e così globale. Come Marco Polo. Da sentire e vedere. [en] Vò di Brendola: a village in the middle of industrial areas, which retains the grace and the fatigue of the Venetian countryside and its villas. A hall run by people for people, two hundred seats. A review of international music and theater. An unexpected joy of this Veneto so small and so global. Like Marco Polo.

      txt: Omen - wikipedia
      An omen (also called portent or presage) is a phenomenon that is believed to foretell the future, often signifying the advent of change. Though the word "omen" is usually devoid of reference to the change's nature, hence being possibly either "good" or "bad", the term is more often used in a foreboding sense, as with the word "ominous".

      link: Tango - www.en.argentina.ar
      Described as a clearly popular style born in Buenos Aires suburbs, brothels and tenement houses, tango (meaning “a place for slaves to meet”) is intrincately embedded in its music and lyrics melancholic essence as well as in the sensuality and passion felt when dancing it.
