Back from here:
We had sunny days at the coast of Provence. Nice is always as nice as we knew it from other trips in springtime.
We’ll come back. But now we’ll have to work. Have a nice week everybody.

Why? Let we our kids alone? Don’t we care? With 17 they are still kids, believe me. They just should begin their life instead of finishing it. No answers to the lot of questions we have.. I feel helpless and sad. Let’s have a break and think…
vernissage.tv .. exposition movies
Maybe some find it interesting to have a look at vernissages. You find on vernissage.tv new and classic arts, english and in other languages spoken movies. But as always if you want to have interesting information, you need time to check out what is happening in the movies showed and who are the protagonists. I didn’t find everything worthy to watch, one of the movies which interested me more I show beyond. In anycase the website www.vernissage.tv is a window leading into the world of arts, museums and expositions. As all projects, it needs money, so the movies show some advertisments. It is also a good example like web2.0 technologies and artbusiness will grow together.
The movie beyond shows an exhibition about light and shadow in mostly classical paintings. It was remembering me a lot the pictures of Georges de la Tour I saw a longtime ago in the exhibitions of Louvre/Paris.
The child of the high seas…
… is a story written by the french author Jules Supervielle.
L'enfant de la haute mer de Jules Supervielle
(if you understand french, here you find a part of the original text) A little girl is living alone in a haunted village, situated in the high sea. Nobody knows about this village. When ships are passing by, the child falls in a sound sleep and the village disappears under the waves… in this way all days are going on, during time stands still. It is about phantasy, memories and lonelyness. Maybe the explication is right, that this girl lost her father, who was a sailor, in the sea and now is bringing back his ship by using the force of her imagination… Anyway it is a story made of imagination and remembers me my own childhood. Childhood is the place where imagination is born. Imagination is a high quality gift and I am glad to remember, even now that I am adult and becoming older each day. Maybe the fact that I lost my own mother a couple of weeks ago, is responsable for the coming out of these nostalgic feelings. The animation movie mirrors the atmosphere of the story in a perfect way. There are acquarellistic drawings combined with computertechnics. The village itself is drawn in the way southern french villages are built. The movie plays a lot with the effects of wind, shadows and water movements. Everything is passing slowly, the colouring is washed out, which corresponds well to the ghosty, dreamy atmosphere. So take your time by watching, lean back and let you abduct in an other world:
The animation movie was made in 2000 by four students from the Supinfocom (School for Infography and Multimedia in Valenciennes) - Laetitia Gabrielli, Pierre Marteel, Mathieu Renoux and Max Tourret with music by René Aubry
