This poster (800×1000mm) was designed to summarize and explain the summer holiday of 2009: a roadtrip/ moving house expedition undertaken by my partner Marthe and I, from Norway to England and back.
'L'amore, un'estate' (Love and Summer) di William Trevor, pubblicato in Italia dalla Casa Editrice Guanda, racconta delle tragiche conseguenze e la vergogna di una famiglia per l'onore perduto di una donna. L'autore, 81 anni, con la sua prosa ricca di sfumature, raffigura una società soggiogata dalla condanna implacabile della Chiesa sull'immoralità sessuale. Trevor racconta la città fittizia di Rathmoye con la precisione di una fotografia, offrendo un ritratto dei suoi abitanti, sottile e pittorico.

Arte aborde cette année 2009-2010 avec beaucoup de détermination et de calme", a lancé mardi le président d’Arte France Jérôme Clément lors de la conférence de rentrée de la chaîne franco-allemande. Il s’est même approprié l’expression de "force tranquille" chère à François Mitterrand, qui signa l’accord de lancement d’Arte avec Helmut Kohl, il y a près de vingt ans. Lentement mais sûrement, Arte poursuit son petit bonhomme de chemin dans un paysage audiovisuel en mutation, affichant des résultats d’audience très corrects pour son "Summer of the 80’s" (3,8 % d’audience en moyenne), et une progression dans l’univers compétitif de la TNT (3,2 % d’audience en soirée en août). Tout en poursuivant sa "stratégie de qualité et de liberté créatrice", Arte explore toujours "la piste du rajeunissement, en créant des événements qui attirent les jeunes, en exploitant toujours plus Internet, et en travaillant sur les formats", a précisé Gottfried Langenstein, le président d’Arte.
Still, I wanted to tie in our fair / carnival / summer party-bbq theme a bit so I made this bunting (banners or flagging or garlands, whatever you want to call them) to go along the aisle. We shopped for a couple months to find cool patterned fabrics in our wedding colors.

Perhaps, living a life is not for any specific purpose, survival itself is the most valuable thing.
New York secretes its fullest range of smells in the summer; disgusting or enticing, delicate or overpowering, they are liberated by the heat. So one sweltering weekend, I set out to navigate the city by nose. As my nostrils led me from Manhattan’s northernmost end to its southern tip, some prosaic scents recurred (cigarette butts; suntan lotion; fried foods); some were singular and sublime (a delicate trail of flowers mingling with Indian curry around 34th Street); while others proved revoltingly unique (the garbage outside a nail salon). Some smells reminded me of other places, and some will forever remind me of New York.

The rich, collaborative web applications being developed on the NASA Apps platform are built on the open-source Django Web Application Framework. This portal provides source code repositories, bug tracking and AGILE project management systems, and public-facing wikis for each project within NASA Apps.
These projects, while intended to be released as open source software, have not currently passed through the NASA software release process. It is anticipated that they will be released under the NASA Open Source Agreement (NOSA), and will be accepting user community contributions by the end of the summer.
Brian House and Jesse Shapins were two of the co-creators of Yellow Arrow, an early locative media arts project and social software platform. In summer 2008, they co-taught the studio/seminar “Critical Urban Media Arts” at Columbia. Here, they discuss the conceptual background of the course and the pedagogical methods they developed, including Periplurban, a new platform for urban media research.
This site is dedicated to the Little Gems of children's television programs that have long faded into memory such as Moondial, Into the Labyrinth, The Herbs, Cockleshell Bay, Alias the Jester, Belle and Sebastien, Murun Buchstansangur, The Singing Ringing Tree, Simon in the Land of Chalk Drawings (as shown on Captain Kangaroo) and Portland Bill. It also includes recently discovered Gems such as The Big Knights. These and other classics may no longer be seen on our television screens but we hope that this site will bring back vivid memories of those lazy days of the summer school holidays.
