Presentacio del llibre del Globetour a Vic
junio 6, 2010
Presentació del llibre d’en Jan el proper 9 de juny a les 8 del vespre a la llibreria “la Tralla” de Vic: ”Relat del primer any d’un llarg viatge prenent el pols al món. Europa”.
Després d’estar recorrent casi sense parar, durant 4 anys, bona part d’Europa, Àfrica, Orient Mitjà i Àsia, amb l’Alexandra, hem estat 6 mesos retinguts a casa, massa temps per a un cul inquiet que volia seguir prenent el pols al món. De totes maneres, això era el més sensat, perquè l’Alexandra, amb passaport romanès, tenia problemes per a obtenir el visat d’Estats Units, el país on volíem iniciar la nostra travessia americana. Així doncs, el primer pas va ser casar-nos, quelcom no tant senzill entre dues persones de nacionalitats diferents. Finalment, vàrem obtenir els permisos pertinents i el dia 20 de febrer ens vàrem casar envoltats d’amics i familiars. Unes setmanes més tard l’Alexandra va haver de volar a Romania per a registrar el casament i a continuació demanar un nou passaport on constés la seva residència a Espanya. Va ser així que, un cop rebut el passaport tres setmanes més tard, finalment vàrem poder demanar hora a l’ambaixada nord-americana a Madrid. Vàrem arribar-hi a mitjans de maig, l’Alexandra carregada de nervis i jo de papers, els quals van ser inútils, perquè sense verificar res ens van anunciar que ens concedirien un visat turístic vàlid per a 10 anys. Ens va costar de reprimir l’alegria, tot i que tampoc ens vàrem entretenir a celebrar-ho, perquè de seguida ens vàrem posar a buscar un bitllet d’avió cap a Califòrnia pel dia 10 de juny, just l’endemà de la data que tenia previst presentar el meu primer llibre del viatge.
Hauria preferit haver iniciat abans els darrers dos anys de viatge per Amèrica, però també ha anat bé disposar d’aquests sis mesos sedentaris per a fer un altre tipus de viatge, un viatge interior per la memòria que m’ha permès d’escriure sense presses el “Relat del primer any d’un llarg viatge prenent el pols al món. Europa”. Recent editat en català, aquest llibre narra amb transparència els pensaments i sentiments d’un viatger principiant; els successos divertits o irritants que el fan madurar; els contrasts entre els diferents països i regions visitats a Europa; els somnis i il•lusions de les persones que coneix pel camí i les seves interessants opinions polítiques i filosòfiques que queden reflectides a les entrevistes del projecte: “Prenent el pols al món”.
Aquest llibre, amb un pròleg de Toni Argonès i il•lustrat amb 20 pàgines de fotografies, serà presentat el dimecres dia 9 de juny a les 8 del vespre a la llibreria “la Tralla” de Vic. Durant la presentació, també faré una valoració dels 4 darrers anys de viatge per Europa, Àfrica, Orient mitjà i Àsia, projectant al mateix temps fotografies de l’Aventura. Finalment, introduiré la darrera etapa del viatge per Amèrica, que recorreré amb la meva dona Alexandra durant dos anys de nord a Sud, sense autocaravana, la qual vàrem vendre poc després d’arribar a Catalunya. A continuació anirem a sopar a Vic tots els que s’hagin apuntat amb antelació.
Podeu comprar per 18euros el llibre a les llibreries catalanes o a la nostra botiga de Globetour: ”Relat del primer any d’un llarg viatge prenent el pols al món. Europa”
European Design Festival; Rotterdam
abril 15, 2010
The Rotterdam design scene has really welcomed the festival and the program is richer and more exciting than ever before. There are parallel activities to choose from, from dusk till dawn.
ED-Conference
The 3 day conference is focusing on best practice. Follow each project from the first meeting with the client through to the creative process, the planning, the brainstorming, the execution and the feedback received. Fifteen speakers from fifteen different European countries means that you are bound to watch a very special conference with a truly pan-European approach. Presentations are diverse enough to include as many aspects of communication design as possible from Ukrainian calendars and Spanish posters all the way to Finnish illustrations. Find the full list of speakers here.
Award evening
This is the finale of the festival and it kicks off with a formal reception in the Rotterdam City Hall where you will also be able to see an exhibition from Rotterdam Design Platform. The actual ceremony takes place in De Doelen and promises to celebrate the best of European design for the past year. Of course the evening ends in a grand winners’ party at the club Dado.
3 seminars & workshops
Heldenavond is Dutch for Heroes’ evening. It’s an annual event, where students from Willem de Kooning Academy, Rotterdam University invite their hero designers to present themselves and their work. It concludes with the opening party of the festival.
Visible Creativity in Rotterdam is a debate in an old church organized by Design Platform Rotterdam. In what way are the circumstances and the city support different in Rotterdam, Berlin, Barcelona and Stockholm?
A Bar Camp is an open source event, a speakers corner for media people, designers, artists and activists.
6 exhibitions
The design community of Rotterdam is highlighting the local design scene during the festival with not less than 6 exhibitions. “Ideas from Rotterdam” exhibits winners of the local annual design prize in the City Hall. VIVID gallery has invited KesselsKramer. Willem Kooning Academy Rotterdam University is involved in all remaining 4 exhibitions. Their students have designed new European flags that will be hauled in the Boobjes outdoor flag museum. “Viral Communication” is a video presentation during breaks of the conference in De Doelen. “Bigger than Dutch Design” is the result of a project week exhibited at De Doelen. “BLAAK10 – Academy’s gallery” is three exhibitions in one: View on the West, Stemwijzer in beeld and North Sea Jazz.
4 Design Walks
The Design Walks have become the most popular event of previous festivals and the tickets for some walks are already sold out. A design walk is a trip on foot, bicycle or water taxi to the offices of 2-3 local design agencies. Meet the designers on their home ground in small groups led by a design guide. “Design Walk WdKA” goes to BLAAK10, Karel Doormanhof and OONA. “Design Walk RDM Campus ” has only one stop and is by water taxi to a renovated design center. “Design Walk Rotterdam West” is by bicycle to 75B, Koehorst in ‘t Velt and ping-pong Design. “Design Walk Rotterdam South” takes you by bicycle or water taxi to Studio Dumbar, Strange Attractors and MVRDV.
2 design pubs
And if the events above are not enough for some heavy interaction with people from around the globe, how about hanging out with them in the evenings as well? Following feedback from previous years’ editions, we have arranged for two design pubs (one evening even focusing on the Eurovision Song Contest).
Student discount
This year students are offered 60% discount on all conference tickets!
This offer is valid for a limited number of tickets.
Get Citified
Competition by Veer
Veer is hosting Get Citified, an exciting design competition in association with European Design. Four members of ED-Awards’ prestigious jury, Bettina Schulz, Michel Chanaud, Linda Kudrnovska and Lynda Relph-Knight will judge Get Citified. When we say “city”, what pictures do you see in your mind’s eye? You’ll have access to a selection of Veer’s inspiring photography, illustration and type to use in your design. The winning designs will be announced at the ED-Festival’s award ceremony in Rotterdam, and the top three designers will win a Bamboo, Medium or Large Wacom tablet.

Europa en Papel; Madrid
abril 14, 2010
Del 11.03.10 al 06.06.10
Exposición que se realiza en la Biblioteca Nacional propone una reflexión sobre la idea de Europa y su evolución desde la Grecia clásica a nuestros días. Algunas de las obras maestras de la BNE, como el Beato de Liébana, los códices –recién restaurados– de Leonardo da Vinci, los dibujos de Velázquez o unos grabados de Picasso de 1910, que se exponen en contadas ocasiones, van a ser exhibidas en esta ocasión excepcional.
La muestra arranca con la idea de una Europa histórica que adquiere conciencia de sí misma a partir de la época clásica de Grecia y Roma, y pretende señalar, a través de una selección significativa de piezas, los hitos esenciales. El discurso expositivo se articula en torno a las principales señas de identidad: el proceso de afirmación de las libertades individuales, la consolidación de la democracia como fórmula de convivencia entre los europeos y entre los europeos y el resto del mundo, y la aceptación del pensamiento laico y racional como instrumento para el conocimiento y la fundamentación de los valores éticos, sociales y políticos.
Dividida en los cuatro periodos característicos de la historia europea –Europa clásica, medieval, moderna y contemporánea– contiene más de un centenar de piezas de excepcional valor: libros, manuscritos, folletos, manifiestos, enciclopedias, retratos, dibujos, grabados, carteles y anuncios, sin olvidar los mapas –hay una rica selección cartográfica– y los documentos que muestran la consolidación, en los últimos años, de esta espléndida aventura que se llama Europa.
Como es habitual la BNE y la SECC han editado dos guías didácticas – dedicadas al profesor y a los alumnos respectivamente- que facilitan y complementan la visita de los colegios a la exposición.

abril 4, 2010
El Ministerio de Cultura organiza, en el marco de la Presidencia Española de la Unión Europea y coincidiendo con el Bicentenario de la Independencia de muchos países latinoamericanos, E.CO 2010, un encuentro de colectivos fotográficos para el cual se han programado mesas redondas en las que debatir sobre la problemática del mundo fotográfico, un taller y dos exposiciones, además de otras actividades que se desarrollarán de forma paralela en Madrid y en Soria.
Es la primera vez que en España se reúne a 20 colectivos procedentes de Alemania (Ostkreuz), Argentina (Sub.Coop), Brasil (Cía de Foto y Garapa), Costa Rica (Colectivo Nómada), Francia (Odessa, Tendance Floue y Transit), Italia (Terra Project), México (Mondaphoto), Perú (Supay Fotos y Versus-Photo), Portugal (KameraPhoto), Reino Unido (Documentography), Venezuela (ONG) y España (Blank Paper, NoPhoto, Pandora y Ruido Photo), además de un colectivo multinacional que representa a fotógrafos de Europa del Este (Est&Ost).
Para la organización del evento el Ministerio de Cultura cuenta con la colaboración de la AECID, Agencia Española de Cooperación Internacional para el Desarrollo, con la empresa EPSON, fabricante de productos fotográficos y de imagen digital, y con el Ayuntamiento de Soria para las actividades realizadas en dicha ciudad.
E.CO en Madrid: del 13 al 15 de mayo tendrá lugar en el auditorio del Ministerio de Cultura el Encuentro de colectivos fotográficos, donde se debatirá sobre circuitos alternativos de visibilidad y nuevas estrategias de producción de proyectos fotográficos. Se establecerán además redes de colaboración entre los miembros de esta comunidad.
De forma paralela, en el antiguo edificio de Tabacalera, tendrá lugar una exposición fotográfica relacionada con el medio ambiente que, comisariada por Claudi Carreras, mostrará los últimos trabajos realizados por los colectivos, con el objetivo de dar a conocer su dimensión actual en los ámbitos documental y social principalmente.
E.CO en Soria: del 16 al 19 de mayo se desarrollará un taller en el que los colectivos fotografiarán conjuntamente la provincia de Soria. Con el trabajo resultante se irá creando y montando la exposición que se presentará, a partir del 18 de mayo, en el antiguo edificio del Banco de España.

ED-Awards; call for entries 2010
enero 9, 2010
Enter Europe’s best publicised Design Awards
The European Design Awards is the comprehensive annual awards organization celebrating the best of graphic design, illustration and digital design in Europe. A joint effort by 14 communication design magazines from across Europe, the ED-Awards is a brilliant way to publicize your work on an international level.
So, if you feel that your work is unique, then don’t forget to submit it to this year’s ED-Awards. The deadline for submissions is February 15, 2010.
Why are the ED-Awards so special?
1. The ED-Awards boast the most qualified jury around, composed of representatives from the leading European design magazines. They are design journalists and critics, whose daily work is precisely to recognise and promote the best of communication design internationally.
2. It is truly a panEuropean competition. Last year submissions came from 29 different European countries (with the top country submitting less than 20% of the total number) and winners came from 21 countries (with the top country achieving about 25% of total prizes). The jury members themselves come from 13 different countries.
3. The ED-Awards receive the widest publicity in the design awards field. Agencies and designers who excel here, get the best coverage available. The reason is simple: the ED-Awards are based on a network of design media, ie the means of communication themselves.

Blogging Cultural en Europa
mayo 20, 2009
PTQK nos ha hecho llegar via The TrendNet la noticia/artículo que copiamos a continuación. Aprovechamos esta ocasion para recomendaros el blog en castellano que desde Berlin realiza PTQK.
La plataforma LabforCulture, financiada por la Unión Europea, dedica su último dossier a los blogs culturales que se escriben en Europa. Vale, yo también soy de las que piensan que nada bueno puede salir de una iniciativa tan institucional pero esta vez me tengo que tragar los humos.
Las reseñas publicadas son de lo más nutritivo y se acompañan de entrevistas a los autores y autoras de los blogs que, metidos en faena, siempre tienen algo interesante que contar. Hasta ahora, han sido entrevistados Alex Tarkowski de Kultura 2.0 que escribe sobre new media desde Polonia, Michelle Kasprzak, basada en Escocia y autora de Curating.info, un excelente repertorio de noticias y recursos para comisarios de arte y Claire Welsby de Interventtech, un blog sobre arte y tecnología en el Reino Unido.
Las entrevistas son realizadas por Annette Wolfsberger, directora de proyectos del instituto holandés para la cultura electrónica Virtueel Platform y plantean cuestiones como el modelo económico y la sostenibilidad del blogging, la compatibilidad con otro tipo de actividades, las motivaciones que animan a los autores a iniciar y manterner un blog, el feed-back que reciben de sus lectores, las relaciones que establecen con otros bloggers, cómo seleccionan los temas que van tratan o cómo afecta el idioma en el que escriben a su difusión. Se publicarán a un ritmo de una por semana hasta junio de 2009. El dossier se completa con un mapa dinámico e interactivo sobre blogs culturales en Europa (aún en preparación) y culminará con un ensayo que reune los resultados de la investigación.
Además de este, en la web de Labforculture se pueden encontrar otros dossieres de investigación así como información sobre ayudas, becas, formaciones y otros recursos destinados a los profesionales del sector cultural en Europa. Todo muy políticamente correcto (ya sabeis: “La cultura nos hará libres”) pero sin duda alguna, útil y muy bien documentado.
