Posted on 11 October 2020 by electric

Plastic Song is a short film featuring the artworks of Steve McPherson who, for the last 25 years, has been picking up pieces of plastic from the beaches of his home town in Margate, Kent and turning them into extraordinary and complex artworks.
Directed by Julian Hanford

This is a nice and interesting short film [20 min.] with a positive vibe,
could be great for school material too!

‘NOW IS THE TIME TO LEARN HOPE’

Posted on 3 October 2020 by electric

on January 3 -2018, i received an email from composer Antoine Beuger [https://www.wandelweiser.de], in which he introduced me to an inspiring lecture of John Holloway. The title of the lecture: ‘NOW IS THE TIME TO LEARN HOPE’

Here is the link to the lecture:

not so long ago i saw an interview with Yanis Varoufakis, a Greek economist, academic, philosopher and politician:

i felt inspired by his hopeful attitude towards a new economic thinking.
Varoufakis is one of the founding members of DiEM25, you can find
mor info here: https://diem25.org/

i felt the urge to pay attention in this post to these people who are trying to get across the idea of change, hope and fairness for the majority.

i like to dedicate this song to them.
A meditation.
