DAAR - Decolonizing Architecture Art Residency

by sbrothier
DAAR [Decolonizing Architecture/Art Residency] DAAR is an art and architecture collective and a residency programme based in Beit Sahour, Palestine. DAAR’s work combines discourse, spatial intervention, education, collective learning, public meetings and legal challenges. DAAR’s practice is centred on one of the most difficult dilemmas of political practice: how to act both propositionally and critically within an environment in which the political force field is so dramatically distorted. It proposes the subversion, reuse, profanation and recycling of the existing infrastructure of a colonial occupation. DAAR projects have been shown showed in various biennales and museums, among them Venice Biennale, the Bozar in Brussels, NGBK in Berlin, the Istanbul Biennial, The Architecture Biennale Rotterdam, Home Works in Beirut, Architekturforum Tirol in Innsbruk, the Tate in London, the Oslo Triennial, the Centre Pompidou in Paris and many other places. DAAR’s members have taught lectured and published internationally. In 2010 DAAR was awarded the Price Claus Prize for Architecture, received Art initiative Grant, and shortlisted for the Chrnikov Prize.

Beyroutes, a guidebook to Beirut, one of the grand capitals of the Middle East. Beyroutes presents an exploded view of a city which lives so many double lives and figures in so many truths, myths and historical falsifications. Visiting the city with this intimate book as your guide makes you feel disoriented, appreciative, judgmental and perhaps eventually reconciliatory.

Beirut : la Black Session (2007)

by rickydrier
This session was recorded around November of 2007. It was broadcast by radio station Frnace Inter. The session features covers of Jacques Brel's 'Le Moribond', Kocani Orkestar's 'Siki Siki Baba' and Leonard Cohen's 'Hallelujah', which I have only found before in a really bad quality recording. If you haven't listened to Zach Condon's albums you should. You can download the whole session at the bottom and preview a few of the tracks.

Bella musica...

by tipsorg
Le sorprese son belle proprio perchè arrivano sempre quando meno te le aspetti. Questo fine settimana due delizie musicali: una scoperta e una riscoperta. Zach Condon viene da Santa Fe, New Mexico; ha vent’anni ed è il one-man band di Beirut. La band, appunto.

LINETO.COM - Bruce Lee Book

by sbrothier
We do not remember exactly when and how we came to be in possession of the book «BRUCE LEE – The King of Kung Fu». Presumably, we bought it in Beirut (where the book was published) or in Tehran (although it is written in Arabic). Possibly it was a present given to us by someone some time in the past. It must have been in our office for quite a while when, suddenly, we re-discovered it one day.

Dems politicize evacuation

by jasontromm
One of the things the President and his evacuation team must do is follow the law -- or at least people say the President is not above the law, so it’s better that he obeys it. A law especially pertinent to this situation is the 2003 Foreign Relations Authorization Act, which -- in part -- requires the government to charge evacuees commercial fare plus a dollar for government evacuation. Obeying the law, the State Department had planned to make the evacuating Americans sign a note pledging to reimburse the U.S. government before they got on board. They were charging the price of a single commercial flight from Beirut to Cyprus -- usually $150-$200. When House Minority leader Nancy Pelosi heard about this, she quickly asked her staff to find the nearest microphone. They found CNN, to which Pelosi declared, “A nation that can provide more than $300 billion for a war in Iraq can provide the money to get its people out of Lebanon.” ()() Incidentally, Nancy voted for the law which requires the state department to charge evacuees. Didn't she read the bill before voting for it?

A revolution made for TV

by mikepower
Tuesday, half a million people demonstrating in the streets of Beirut, chanting and waving flags. You probably assumed that they were protesting against the Syrian presence in Lebanon. In fact it was a rally organised by Hezbollah in support of Syria
