Ca fait plaisir de voir une vidéo explicative qui démontre des concepts que j'ai en tête depuis longtemps, autour de la société de consommation, de l'obsolescence programmée, de la dépendance à la croissance dans un monde fini. Tout cela est fort bien expliqué dans cette vidéo sous titrée en français intitulé l'histoire des choses, qui explique le cycle de vie des objets, depuis l'extraction des ressources naturelles, la fabrication, la distribution, l'utilisation et l'élimination. On y aborde le rôle des gouvernements, des grandes entreprises, le recyclage et l'importance de repenser beaucoup de choses dans ce cycle de vie., blogmarks.net

2008 has been an eventful year to say the least - it is difficult to sum up the thousands of stories in just a handful of photographs. That said, I will try to do what I've done with other photo narratives here, and tell a story of 2008 in photographs. It's not the story of 2008, it's certainly not all stories, but as a collection it does show a good portion of what life has been like over the past 12 months. This is a multi-entry story, 120 photographs over three days. Watch for part 2 and part 3 tomorrow and the next day. (40 photos total), blogmarks.net

Alexandre Brachet is a Paris-based e-producer and director of experimental, cross-media production studio Upian. A luminary in the world multi-platform documentaries, he merges cutting-edge technology and traditional techniques to break new ground in made-for-broadband story-telling. We managed to corner him after an inspirational presentation at the very first edition of the International Documentary Film Festival's (IDFA) new Doclab program, for a vin rouge-infused chat about two of his latest projects: the much loved (and aforementioned) rich-media micro-doc series Gaza/Sderot (Life In Spite of Everything), and Thanatorama, an interactive Webdoc about what happens after you die., blogmarks.net

akrylonumerik est une performance multimédia « live » où la matière rencontre le numérique. Le principe est simple, et fait intervenir trois groupes d?artistes autour d?une surface blanche face à des ordinateurs équipés de vidéo projecteurs : Des plasticiens (graffeurs, peintres, affichistes?) agissent directement sur le support pendant que les artistes infographistes y projettent leurs propres créations. Parallèlement, des musiciens composent un univers sonore, en temps réel. Les trois médias (matière, numérique et son) sont improvisés, à partir d?une trame concertée (story board) et de matières produites en atelier. L?Akrylonumérik est donc la rencontre inédite de trois médiums habituellement séparés, et qui prend tout son relief en public. Les intervenants se répondent, s?écoutent, se regardent, interagissent, improvisent, chacun d?eux, guidés par le synopsis. Les tableaux mouvants se succèdent, souvent figuratifs, parfois abstraits, mais n?excluent jamais le sens, le discours, l?humour. Au-delà du côté spectaculaire et captivant du dispositif, la part d'improvisation qu'il offre fait de chaque performance une oeuvre unique et éphémère., blogmarks.net

Swims. First impression? Are these the tuxedos of crocs? Can i really go puddle jumping with these and protect my nice shoes (that aren?t heels.)? Love the photography! and web design! (particularly the way you access the gallery with the little stack of images on the far right. And then from there, i actually started reading? The Swims story is an interesting one of Johan, who grew up in norway and never let go of the galoshes that his grandfather had passed down to him? and as he moved to paris and new york and even put in his time at Parson?s he realized that there was a need to develop Swims, the ?modern galoshes?. Being a socal girl, i have never gotten quite caught up on the vocabulary of people with ?real weather?? apparently Galoshes are ?overshoes that slip over the wearer?s indoor footwear but is made of waterproof material to protect the more delicate materials of the shoe as well as the wearer?s foot from cold and damp?., blogmarks.net
