* Peter Weibel - Fenster zur Welt

Posted on July 16th, 2007 by Chris Car. Filed under Art, Thought, Vision.


Interesting article from Peter Weibel (media artist and media theoretician) published at Telepolis (in german).

Im Grunde ist die zentrale Aufgabe aller Kulturtechnik die, den Menschen von den Zwängen von Raum und Zeit unabhängig zu machen und zwar bis hin zu den Hauptzwängen, dass wir geboren werden und sterben. Wir versuchen also ununterbrochen, und das ist das Evolutionäre, das schmale Zeitfenster, in dem wir leben, zu erweitern, uns durch die Ferntechnik mit Daten zu versorgen, dass ich eben durch mein Fenster sehen kann, wie das Wetter in Brasilien ist, und damit die Gitterstäbe von Raum und Zeit immer mehr auszudehnen. Und das ist Kultur, das ist die evolutionäre Strategie des Menschen.

* Predictions of the future

Posted on July 3rd, 2007 by Chris Car. Filed under Vision.


In 2012, 75 percept of all revenue for enterprise software companies will be from subscription fees rather than license fees.

By 2070, at least six countries will have officially implemented a 4-day working week.

By 2025 at least 50% of all U.S. citizens residing within the United States will have some form of technology embedded in their bodies for the purpose of tracking and identification.

Read and vote on predictions. Link

* That’s how I (sometimes) feel

Posted on June 24th, 2007 by Chris Car. Filed under Vision.


Just for your information, I learned french (from France) in school and I have (sometimes) hard times to understand people from Quebec. ;-) But it’s fun here and I like the country!!! And Têtes à claques are a great resource to learn quebecois!! ;-)

Watch video Têtes à claques à Paris

Excellent photos of personal work spaces of some german DJs (DJ Koze, Ritchie Hawtin, Ellen Allien, DJ Hell and many more; I know, not all are from Germany, but they live there, at least).
