Una serata a piedi nudi ... al teatro smeraldo

Sul palco, a partire dalle 19 fino alle 3 di notte, si alterneranno i Soul II Soul Sound Sistem, i Masters At Work, Gerardo Frisina & Bruno Bolla e Luca De Gennaro, accompagnati dal VJ Joe Ferrari e molte altre performance.

chi sara' il blogger della serata?
si sapra' il 10 luglio ...

Chi è un B-Logger?

Un B-Logger è un blogger speciale, che la direzione marketing del Gruppo Bacardi-Martini selezionerà come live blogger ufficiale dell’evento Bacardi B-Live, una serata unica e irripetibile che si terrà il 12 luglio al Teatro Smeraldo di Milano.

Per l’occasione all’interno del teatro verrà ricostruito un enorme prato in erba naturale, uno spazio dedicato agli spiriti liberi, i free spirit, che vorranno vivere la serata a piedi nudi.

e subito nascono le "polemiche":

nel blog hagakure.it - " ...
Un’iniziativa ben studiata per approcciare la Blogosfera e per far parlare, pardon postare, di sè. Un po’ sul modello della conferenza stampa fatta da Yahoo! Italia il 14 giugno scorso e coordinata da noi per i rapporti con la Blogosfera..."

dal blog pandemia.info "... La considero una buona idea per promuoversi anche nella blogosfera italiana. Non è casuale, dal momento che viene da persone attente alle conversazioni in rete, che hanno ben consigliato Bacardi nel coinvolgere anche i blogger..."

dal blog totanus.net"... Bacardi non è nuova ad attuare campagne di blog marketing.
Già due anni fa fu creato infatti un blog su un personaggio fittizio (una ragazza chiamata BB) che, attraverso le sue avventure ed esperienze, promuoveva lo spirito trasgressivo tipico del marchio cubano.
Conosco bene quell’esperienza perchè fui il copywriter di buona parte dei post che vennero pubblicati. In particolare curai la seconda e ultima fase del blog, in cui cercai di disegnare attorno al personaggio di BB un vero e proprio carattere, con emozioni, gusti e sentimenti verosimili (in precedenza il blog elencava più che altro curiosità e gadget trovati in rete). In questo modo BBBlog si differenziò da MissY, un’altra esperienza di branded-blog molto simile in quel periodo..."

HUMAN TECHNOLOGY

HUMAN TECHNOLOGY


For the occasion of the London Biennale 2006 neo-dogma-non is curating the show Human Technology at the Synergy Gallery. Once again the diverse body of artists comprising the London Biennale convene neo-dogma-non style to make you think.

David Medalla started the London Biennale in 2000 with Adam Nankervis and ever since it hasn't stopped growing. Its development is truly organic and its style down to earth. Its informal yet centralised organisation allows it to expand to all corners of the planet including all art mediums and expressions.

The inspiration for this show comes from an article I read in the New View magazine about the Strader Machine. This is a devise mentioned in some of Rudolf Steiner's lectures in the first half of the 20th Century. I found it most fascinating and it triggered all sorts of questions in my mind.

neo-dogma-non (ndn) is an art movement to raise human awareness for Human Awareness itself. It is our intention to bring the importance of human existence back to the forefront of creation. Our ethos draws from Anthropology, Buddhism, Neuroscience, Psychology and Anthroposophy to mention but a few.

In this particular exhibition one particular concept from one of our sources of inspiration serves as a catalyst to join three influential groups of the London scene in 2006: the London Biennale, neo-dogma-non and the Synergy Project. This time the theme is Human Technology: what is it? Your hands, a pen, a computer or your intention?

The Synergy Gallery was started by neo-dogma-non in the beginning of the Synergy Centre. The Centre itself was founded as the social enterprise of the Synergy Project parties where ndn also initiated the gallery. To choose the Synergy Gallery to house the Human Technology show and to include it in the London Biennale circuit was only natural. All three organisations share the gathering of creative minds from all over the world coming together to manifest emotion and make London the vibrant place it is.

Here & now: explorations of meaning, past & future possibilities, technological concepts in the 21st Century. Through a visual feast of painting, photography, mixed media, installation, video and performing art the artists explore the theme of Human Technology creating a platform for dialogue to develop between all these different mediums working under the same guise. The body of artists is truly diverse with artists from Portugal, UK, Philippines, India, Cyprus, Spain, Canada, Norway, Canada, Italy, Korea, Australia & Brazil.

Rosemarie Lopes, David Medalla, Marisol Cavia, Adam Nankervis, Jill Rock, Wayne Chisnall, Dolores Sanchez Colvo, James White, Francesca Cho, TOPRAK, Sara Reilly, Robert Lord, Laura Cristin, Richard Niman, Katie Sollohub, Arvinder Bawa, Lorraine Clarke, Marko Stepanov, Margaret Atkinson, Philip Lee, Jacqueline Drinkall, Calum F Kerr, Cathy McGuinness, Giacomo Picca, Loli Cordenoso, Mali, Jolanda Jagiello, Grupo Sinestetico, Alina Gavrielatos, Ernesto Serezale, Zoë Zircon Davis, June Sira & Jo Roberts.

electroniccities.ca

back in 2003 my co-curator Paola Poletto and I devoted our festival (digifest) to the theme Electronic Cities. Subsequently we put together a substantial e-learning website showcasing 20 international projects that had been featured at the festival. I wrote the 20 essays on it, and although they are for a student audience, the site and the projects it showcases may still be of interest.
