Protect IP Act Breaks the Internet

“PROTECT-IP is the latest piece of legislation aiming to chip away at your online rights in the name of protecting

the entertainment industry’s business model. It’s legislation that won’t work, will give us yet more lawsuits, and will make the net worse.”

WikiLeaks Banking Blockade Video

Edoardo Melchiori — Sat, 02 Jul 2011 15:13:03 +0000

[...] When VISA and MasterCard will happily provide services to the Klu Klux Klan, but not to WikiLeaks, it is time to act.

The issue received previous prominence, but the unlawful blockade continues, on Christmas day, the Dec 25 New York Times editorial wrote:

The whistle-blowing Web site WikiLeaks has not been convicted of a crime. The Justice Department has not even pressed charges over its disclosure of confidential State Department communications. Nonetheless, the financial industry is trying to shut it down… A handful of big banks could potentially bar any organization they disliked from the payments system, essentially cutting them off from the world economy. The fact of the matter is that banks are not like any other business. They run the payments system. That is one of the main reasons that governments protect them from failure with explicit and implicit guarantees. This makes them look not too unlike other public utilities.

WASTE LAND – Following artist Vik Muniz in Jardim Gramacho (Rio)

Edoardo Melchiori — Mon, 16 May 2011 20:06:13 +0000

WASTE LAND Official Trailer from Almega Projects on Vimeo.

Filmed over nearly three years, WASTE LAND follows Vik Muniz as he journeys from his home base in Brooklyn to his native Brazil and the world’s largest garbage dump, Jardim Gramacho, located on the outskirts of Rio de Janeiro. There he photographs an eclectic band of “catadores” — self-designated pickers of recyclable materials. Muniz’s initial objective was to “paint” the catadores with garbage. However, his collaboration with these inspiring characters as they recreate photographic images of themselves out of garbage reveals both the dignity and despair of the catadores as they begin to re-imagine their lives. Director Lucy Walker (DEVIL’S PLAYGROUND, BLINDSIGHT, COUNTDOWN TO ZERO) has great access to the entire process and, in the end, offers stirring evidence of the transformative power of art and the alchemy of the human spirit.

dentsu: paint sound sculptures for the new Canon Pixma Printer ADV

Edoardo Melchiori — Mon, 18 Oct 2010 14:24:44 +0000

The creative studio dentsu, teamed up with photographer Linden Gledhill to create this series of paint sculptures using sound vibrations. The series was part of a campaign for canon’s pixma ink printer brand. The photographs and videos begin by wrapping a membrane around a small speaker. Ink drops were placed on this membrane and the speaker was turned on. Once it began to vibrate the ink begins to jump up and down. High-speed video cameras and still cameras were used to capture this including circling around the sculptures to see them from all angles. Experimenting with different sounds and frequencies created the various pieces.
