PUBLIC MARKS with search spite

beaches in summer time. Massification of art viewing.

These two (optional) additions to the overall experience would be great if, in spite of a strict reservation system, the exhibition hadn’t been so awfully crowded.

Linux Forums - New Articles New Articles posted on Linux Forums Enduring Roadblocks to Linux Acceptance Linux has some fundamental problems that will endure, because they come from the nature of the beast. These are freedom-loving developers, competing technologies, and poor standardization. These problems hinder technical progress and acceptance, but (amazingly) Linux has become a strong alternative to Windows in spite of this. Open Source - Share A tale of a boy who never used Linux but got attracted to it. The dimensions of Linux: a possible new way of choosing a distro One of the commonest questions on this forum is "Which Linux distribution should I use?". The usual answer - "The one you like best." - is not very informative for a total novice. Distrowatch provides a very useful service in this regard, but it occurs to me that Liinux distributions could be mappied along a variety of quasi-spatial "dimensions", providing a kind of conceptual space through which you could navigate to find the distribution that best matched your own preferences and needs, perhaps one you had not previously heard of.

Technology was then the black sheep, having left overnight millionaires destitute and without change to afford their $4 lattes. Even the posers had left San Francisco and gone back to suburbia to be office managers at Walmart. It was a sad time for everyone — that is, except the die-hards and the hackers. The web for them had never been about making money, but about reshaping culture and toppling the old order. 2003, therefore, was the perfect time for a resurgence: the people who kept pushing on in the Valley and elsewhere were a concentrated motley crew of innovators and builders. They cared about technology for technology’s sake and about developing and advancing web culture. What they didn’t realize, however, was that the services and technologies that they were destined to build would need to be cobbled and sewn together using a system that would fight them every step of the way — not out of spite — but because of its architecture. By definition the network available was decidedly anti-human: in 2003, there was only the document-centric web.

From France, Oil for Fraud, a Maha Productions program for ARTE, was named best investigative and current affairs program; Skirt Day, an ARTE France production, was named best made-for-TV movie; and Gaza-Sderot: life in spite of everything, produced by Bo Travail in association with Alma Films, Trabelsi Productions, Ramattan Studio and Upian.com, was recognized as best original online program.

Gaza-Sderot: life in spite of everything, a production from France by Bo Travail in association with Alma Films, Trabelsi Productions, Ramattan Studio and Upian.com was named best Original Online Program.

It’s day two at the Input conference in Warsaw and I wanted to share the best project I’ve seen so far. Gaza/Sderot - Life in Spite of Everything is a series of 80 films shot over 40 days — one per day in Gaza and one per day in the town of nearby Sderot. Each is a day-in-the-life style video that follows one of 14 people (seven in each town).

obfuscated content : it's probably art

Après l'offensive israélienne de décembre-janvier, nos équipes ont rencontré à nouveau nos amis à Gaza et Sderot. Quatre vidéos d'un côté, quatre vidéos de l'autre, que vous pourrez voir jour après jour sur le blog. N'hésitez pas à envoyer des messages à nos équipes et à nos personnages.

The article is about a project which reports on life as experienced by men, women and children in Gaza (Palestine) and Sderot (Israel) through stories which are being aired on the Internet. Arik Bernstein the Co- Producer of the project tells us about the idea behind this project and its feedback around the world. Recently Gaza-Sderot was nominated for an International Digital Emmy Award in the non-fiction category.

He is the "e-producer" behind "Gaza Sderot, Life in Spite of Everything," a Web-based documentary that won the Prix Europa award last year in Berlin and will screen at the SXSW Interactive Festival, which runs March 13-17 as part of South by Southwest 2009.

Gaza (Palestine) and Sderot (Israel): Report on the life of men, women and children in two cities on the Israeli Palestinian border. Strong story telling and fantastic well designed UI.

以色列人常常說，世人只看到巴勒斯坦人的苦難，卻看不到以色列人的傷痛。這倒令我反省一下自己是否真的偏頗了。例如以色列南部城鎮 Sderot，過去五年一直受哈馬斯火箭威脅，死傷雖然不多，但當你老是活在火箭陰影下，時刻要準備跑進防空洞，日子委實難過。法國電視台arte去年進行了一項拍攝計劃，名為 Gaza-Sderot -Life in spite of everything，兩支攝製隊每天分別在這兩座距離只有三公里城鎮的拍攝，捕捉兩地平民百姓的生活，由他們自己細說生活及夢想如何被無休止的衝突打斷。我看着心想，若以軍和哈馬斯知道「攻擊目標」都是這些活生生的人，他們會否有所猶豫？

On page 30, Elinor Davidov writes about a 40-episode television documentary called Gaza-Sderot, Life in Spite of Everything. Each episode features an interview with an ordinary person on either side of the border, describing daily life. The result is a fascinating combination of drama and banality that makes each episode worth watching. It was co-produced by a staff from Sderot’s Sapir College, Gaza’s Ramattan Studios and the German-French arte.tv (photos and bio blurbs are here).

The project is a fantastic way to help build empathy for each others story.

Όταν οι παραγωγοί σχεδίαζαν το τέλος των γυρισμάτων στις 23 Δεκεμβρίου του 2008 μάλλον δεν υποπτεύονταν ότι το δράμα θα ακολουθούσε λίγες μέρες μετά. Διαισθανόντουσαν όμως ότι αργά η γρήγορα θα συνέβαινε. Η αναμονή του μοιραίου διαφαινόταν στα πρόσωπα των ηρώων...

And then we quite rightly focus on an web-based video blogging effort called GAZA\SDEROT: Life in Spite of Everything that had been trying, and vows to continue to try, to bring Palestinians and Israelis together with beautifully shot two minute films.

Del 23 d’octubre al 23 de desembre de 2008 l’equip de producció del canal de televisió Arte va documentar la vida en dos ciutats separades per només tres quilòmetres al programa GAZA SDEROT, life in spite of everything.
