We jammed quite a lot and it was pretty amazing to see both of brothers doing their double music blasts. I do admire their skills indeed. However, I found out that before I actually scream, I would need a major improvement of my vocal skills. I don’t know if it was for the fact that I had a sore throat and was tired or I simply need to work on it. Either way:
I think I might need quite a lot of practice with singing this summer. Perhaps, I will sign up for lessons. I have to improve before I start inventing stuff with Annik.exe for the other music project. That’s an imperative.

The Online Encyclopedia of Mass Violence provides chronological indexes, case studies, analytical contributions on socio-political violence in a given country, a glossary of the terms most often used in genocide studies as well as theoretical papers written by the most representative authors in the field.
Apart from the fact of finding the website I think it is very interesting that such sites start to emerge on the webspaces. Giant databases for varied purposes already exist and it seems that it is a growing trend to put more and more information into a virtual space. Perhaps it will give however unreliable but useful insight into some crucial issues.
I have to so I’m a bit curious because together with growing information storage, the public information available on the Internet about individuals will increase as well. And this in turn can lead into violations. We shall Observe.

For young generations, Holocaust is almost like a fairytale. Schindler’s List has a great visual potential within. Imagery that is shown there, is very graphic, very real, containing the truth about the past. Despite of the fact that I’m not the biggest fan of Steven Spielberg, I admire the work he did on Schindler’s List. It couldn’t be done better. It couldn’t be shown better.

So called “Operation Urban Warrior” footage in three parts. This is how it would look like if there would be an emergency situation. Why deploy tons of troops on the streets? Quote: “This is to minimize the amount of people that have to be killed”.

Ben Templesmith made a wonderful poster for ANZAC day in Australia, which is on April 25th. A day not for glorifying victories but for remembering the futility and waste of life that is war.
“How well I remember that terrible day
How the blood stained the sand and the water
And how in that hell that they called Suvia Bay
We were butchered like the lambs at the slaughter
Johnny Turk he was ready, he primed himself well
He chassed us with bullets, he rained us with shells
And in five minutes flat he’d blown us all to hell
Nearly blew us right back to Australia
But the band played Waltzing Matilda
As we stopped to bury our slain
We buried ours and Turks buried theirs
Then we started all over again”
And the Band Played Waltzing Matilda
