Although this artwork is not always that brilliant, this is how advertising should be. One image can say more than many words.&lt;br /&gt;
I like the connection what is made between history and present.&lt;br /&gt;

Great print from the Brazilian collective Afro Reggae.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The Afro Reggae Cultural Group (GCAR) was initiated in January 1993 with a newspaper called the Afro Reggae News – whose objective was to create a means to diffuse information aimed at valorizing and spreading black culture, specifically for youth connected to rhythms such as reggae, soul, hip hop, etc.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
In 1993 they inaugurated their first Culture Community Center in the favela of Vigário Geral, which began to develop their social projects aiming to have a direct intervention with the Afro-Brazilian population. Soon after, this same center was consolidated through its first programs that included; dance, percussion, recycling, soccer and capoeira, which later opened the door to new commissions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Since the beginning and until the present day the objective that defined their institutional mission was clear: To offer a cultural and artistic formation for the youth living in the favelas (shantytowns/ slums) as a means for them to create their own citizenship and have access to alternatives to narco-trafficking and menial jobs, and to furthermore transform themselves and empower other youths along the way.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
With the passing of time, the projects began to be perfected, an institution began to grow, and results began to appear. In 1997, Afro Reggae inaugurated the Afro Reggae Cultural Center Vigário Legal, which was an important step in their history. With a physically well-structured space in their community, the work could be developed with bettor quality and planning. In this process this initiative became an attributing socio-cultural practice in the city of Rio de Janeiro. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

A group of American graphic designers organize a project to sell posters in order to collect funds dedicated to Katrina for the Red Cross.&lt;br /&gt;
Graphic designers encouraged to use this medium to comment on the political or social climate which surrounded the event and the slow political reaction.&lt;br /&gt;
You can purchase the posters online at the &lt;a href="http://www.thehurricaneposterproject.com/index.php?page=poster" target="_blank"&gt;dedicated website&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;

Al eerder schreef ik hier over het gebruik van games door de non-profit sector. &lt;br /&gt;
Games zijn niet alleen meer louter vermaak. Op vele gebieden worden games ingezet: marketing, gezondheid, kunst en politiek.&lt;br /&gt;
Opvallende is bijvoorbeeld dat sinds 9/11 veel mensen hun gevoelens uitten in zelfgemaakte games en verspreid via internet.
Zo is er September 12th waarin het doel is terroristen uit te schakelen, maar omstanders raken hier altijd bij gewond. Uit verbittering worden zij vervolgens terrorist.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a href="http://www.beeldengeluid.nl/files/games/" target="_blank"&gt;Beeld en geluid&lt;/a&gt; heeft de evolutie van games in kaart gebracht en laat diverse toepassingen zien.&lt;img src ="http://blogger.xs4all.nl/marcg/aggbug/66156.aspx" width = "1" height = "1" /&gt;</description></item><item><dc:creator>houtlust</dc:creator><title>Voorspelbaar en toch leuk</title><link>http://blogger.xs4all.nl/marcg/archive/2005/10/30/65078.aspx</link><pubDate>Sun, 30 Oct 2005 21:53:00 GMT</pubDate><guid>http://blogger.xs4all.nl/marcg/archive/2005/10/30/65078.aspx</guid><wfw:comment>http://blogger.xs4all.nl/marcg/comments/65078.aspx</wfw:comment><comments>http://blogger.xs4all.nl/marcg/archive/2005/10/30/65078.aspx#Feedback</comments><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><wfw:commentRss>http://blogger.xs4all.nl/marcg/comments/commentRss/65078.aspx</wfw:commentRss><trackback:ping>http://blogger.xs4all.nl/marcg/services/trackbacks/65078.aspx</trackback:ping><description>&lt;img src="http://www.xs4all.nl/~marcg/blogbeeld/mime.jpg" alt="Belgisch Mime-festival" id="Belgisch Mime-festival" width="400" height="224" hspace="0" vspace="0" align="none" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Soms kan simpel en voorspelbaar ook heel leuk zijn getuige &lt;a href="http://www.mm.be/assets/campaigns/588/telephone-uk.mpg" target="_blank"&gt;deze commercial&lt;/a&gt; voor het &lt;a href="http://www.mime.be/" target="_blank"&gt;Belgisch Mime-festival&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
Alleen jammer dat de voorstellingen op het festival een geheel ander, lees eigentijdser, karakter hebben. Zou de gemiddelde mime-liefhebber dit begrijpen of niet?&lt;br /&gt;

In België is een rel onstaan naar aanleiding van het affiche van het toneelstuk &lt;a href="http://www.tinck.be/index.cfm/act/show/event/14101" target="_blank"&gt;Onze Lieve Vrouw van Vlaanderen&lt;/a&gt; van toneelgroep &lt;a href="http://www.unionsuspecte.be/" target="_blank"&gt;Union Suspecte&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
Quote &lt;a href="http://www.zattevrienden.be/node/24105" target="_blank"&gt;ZatteVrienden.be&lt;/a&gt; "De voorstelling gluurt door de bril van de zonen naar de eerste generatie allochtone moeders die hun man volgden naar België. Een blik in de huiskamer toont een tegelijk pijnlijk en hilarisch duel tussen moeder en zonen, die hun best doen de vrouw als moeder te begrijpen en haar uit het vrouwelijke lijden willen verlossen. Union Suspecte schrijft andermaal een wervelend stukje familiegeschiedenis, dat put uit autobiografische elementen en fantasie, de ‘far west’ en de Islam, banale situaties en Grote Verhalen, opgeluisterd door een bonte mix van zangeressen van het Marrakech Emballages, voortgestuwd door een ritmische clash van Arabische dansen, breakdance, hedendaagse dans, Chopin, Vlaamse volksliederen en Stabat mater."&lt;br /&gt;
De &lt;a href="http://www.bechrist.be/NL/actions/0509olv.htm" target="_blank"&gt;vzw België en Christenheid&lt;/a&gt; heeft een iets andere kijk en haalt alles uit de kast: "Een nieuw schandalig toneelstuk
Vrienden hebben ons zojuist verwittigd dat er een schandalig toneelstuk op komst is: "Onze-Lieve-Vrouw Van Vlaanderen". De affiche ervan laat een gesluierde madonna met naakte borsten, een woestijnlandschap en een schild met de Vlaamse leeuw zien. De "première" te Brussel is voorzien op 29 oktober. Daartegen gaan wij reageren!"&lt;img src ="http://blogger.xs4all.nl/marcg/aggbug/65077.aspx" width = "1" height = "1" /&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
