The UK publication, The Sun, was caught ERASING THE CAPTAIN of a tiny boat that contained Prince William and seven sailors. Well, they didn't erase all of him. You can still see his disembodied leg in the altered photo.
Posters, posters! Not just a university favorite anymore. The figure 3500cm2, curated by Lorenzo Benedetti, refers to the dimensions of a typical poster. As such, this exhibition explores the ways in which artists can use posters as a medium—and the significance of mass production and free distribution within the art world.
The project space will include newly commissioned posters by Mathilde ter Heijne and will be distributing them to gallery visitors free of charge.
Much has been said about United States presidential hopeful Barack Obama’s upcoming speech in front of Berlin’s Siegesäule Monument on Thursday, July 24th. This leg of the senator’s tour abroad—the only scheduled appearance in a European city—will be a discussion of the relationship between the USA and Germany and the need for improving transatlantic relationships into the 21st century.
The speech is scheduled to last for 45 minutes. Expect thousands of spectators, and not only American ex-pats—a recent poll quoted in Der Spiegel found that 76 percent of Germans preferred Obama over Republican nominee John McCain.
Free and open to the public starting at 16:00. Enter at the Strasse des 17. Juni in the direction of Brandenburger Tor.

Suring surfing through the world with multimedia
Suring surfing, day and night
on the data highway
Come join me on the internet tonight
I'm already waiting for you
Dude, be a user, go online
You'll meet me in the email
And should you lack some megabytes
You’ll find them here with me
Be it interface or cyberspace
I'll gladly share with you
With bits and bytes
With mouse and click
We are going on a tour
In the World Wide Web
We'll follow each new hint today
Also, ich werde ich nächste Woche dort sein, in der Fanzone am Großen Stern in Berlin um den Barack Obama mal aus der Nähe zu sehen.
Hab dazu gerade folgendes auch gekriegt aus den "Obama-Kreisen":
Dear all,
we are very much looking forward to see Barack Obama in Berlin on 24th July giving his only speech in Europe during his tour. He will give his speech of about 45 minutes at the Siegessäule at 7 p. m..
We are all excited to listen to Barack Obama´s ideas. I got many enthusiastic comments from all over Europe and the States. Together we can make the meeting become a powerful demonstration of the upcoming new and true Transatlantic Relationship!
We can create a get together with good vibrations. All kind of ideas are welcome: on the morning of 24th July, the day before . Send your ideas to this page. Use the opportunity to find others to start collective action and be creative. Let´s give Barack a warm welcome in Berlin! The speech at SIEGESsäule will be the beginning of his victory.
And here are the first ideas:
We would like to have a spontaneous barbecue in advance to his speech - BBB: Barack´s Biggest Barbecue (BBBBQ?). Everyone is bringing his own stuff. The weather forecast for Thursday is really good. Would you like to join? Some guys are thinking about making music.
Another idea is to create a "free hugs"-team, which is offering free hugs to people on Ku´damm (one of Berlin´s main boulevards) on 23rd and 24th July accompanied by a "free hugs" sign (or "free hugs for obama" (or "free hugs from obama"?). The "free hugs"-idea is just about bringing love, peace and happiness to the people. Have a look for example at http://www.free-hugs.com/ or http://www.freehugscampaign.org/.
Furthermore the idea is suggested to rent a lorry in order to turn it into a campaign-lorry with huge Obama 08-signs and a loud speaker to annonce his speech and play nice music to the people in the streets.
I will keep you informed about further details of Barack in Berlin! asap. Please forward this message to friends so they can register and bring in their ideas as well - no matter you could join or not. Thank you very much for your support!
