Depuis, j'ai pondu une thèse sur l'imaginaire humain. Cela ne m'a pas aidée à comprendre, mais m'a donné le temps d'en faire un running gag commun, approuvé par la cousine Charlie. Nous sommes deux, donc nous sommes huit.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Pour la faire courte, d'après Carl Jung, l'humain est constitué&amp;nbsp;de l'&lt;i&gt;animus&lt;/i&gt;&amp;nbsp;(l'intelligence virile scientifique et rationnelle) et&amp;nbsp;de l'&lt;i&gt;anima&lt;/i&gt;&amp;nbsp;(l'intelligence sensible et poétique féminine). L'humain dans son corps est donc deux.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Là où ça se complique, c'est quand Bachelard ajoute le symbole dans l'équation. Le symbole dédouble le rêveur de l'être rêvé. Il y a toi et il y a toi dans ton rêve (dans ta vie de mytho, si tu préfères). Ce toi rêvé est double aussi.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;DONC, tu es seul, donc tu es quatre. Si tu avais déjà du mal avec ta bipolarité, et bien bon courage. Car tu es, en fait, quadripolaire.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Dans un élan de générosité, je t'offre un exemple. Le mien.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Voici, ma Quadru : (pour une meilleure vue, il faut cliquer sur les photos)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-vC2ONCABAGk/Tz0KiOZpw1I/AAAAAAAABBU/pBUTBfJsYUY/s1600/Quadrupo.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="480" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-vC2ONCABAGk/Tz0KiOZpw1I/AAAAAAAABBU/pBUTBfJsYUY/s640/Quadrupo.jpg" width="640" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Débo&lt;/b&gt; : est religieusement débonnaire. A longueur de temps. Il est content d'être là. Bonne poire, il revend ses billets de concert 10$, et il dit merci au connard qui lui en tire 30.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Le Bidull&lt;/b&gt; : contrôle le corps 80% du temps. Il ne comprend rien quand tu lui parles. C'est la patate aléatoire du groupe. Ses neurotransmetteurs ne transmettent pas aux bonnes synapses, et il se permet d'en poster le résultat sur Facebook.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Agnès&lt;/b&gt; : dite aussi "La Suite". Personnage pas baisant. Cul pincé et sérieux. Elle ne comprend rien aux blagues des autres. Je suis sûre qu'elle est l'auteur de la partie linguistique de notre thèse.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Quasi&lt;/b&gt; : celui qui regarde toujours dans le passé. Quasi, pour Quasimondo, hein. Il tire toutes les ficelles puisqu'il est le lourd poids de la mélancolie. Lui, il écrit les bouquins.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Des fois, dans ma Quadru, on est Kikoolol.

makes a valiant attempt to capture what about it could raise such a compulsion. Rupert Edwards’ camera follows veteran presenter Alan Yentob through Japan, from the midnight Tokyo of &lt;i&gt;After Hours&lt;/i&gt; to the snowed-in Hokkaido of &lt;i&gt;A Wild Sheep Chase&lt;/i&gt;, in a quest to find artifacts of the supremely famous yet media-shy novelist’s imaginary world. Built around interviews with fans and translators but thick with such Murakamiana as laid-back jazz standards, grim school hallways, sixties pop hits, women’s ears, vinyl records, marathon runners, and talking cats, the broadcast strives less to explain Murakami’s substance than to simply reflect it. If you find your curiosity piqued by all the fuss over &lt;i&gt;1Q84&lt;/i&gt;, Murakami’s latest, you might watch it as something of an aesthetic primer.

He grew up reading a range of works by American writers, such as Kurt Vonnegut and Richard Brautigan, and he is often distinguished from other Japanese writers by his Western influences.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Murakami is a keen marathon runner and triathlete, although he did not start running until he was 33 years old. On June 23, 1996, he completed his first ultramarathon, a 100-kilometer race around Lake Saroma in Hokkaido, Japan.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote class="tr_bq" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;I began writing fiction in my youth to run as far as i could from the japanese condition.

"&lt;i&gt;Les gens de ce village veulent vivre avec les leurs, et il en est de même pour les gens du village d'à côté.&lt;/i&gt;"&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Katsuyuki Suzuki, 33 ans, indique quant à lui, qu'il veut déménager vers une communauté plus grande, pour sa fille de 3 ans. Il ne comprend pas en quoi les traditions d'un village sont différentes d'un autre, au point de ne pas pouvoir vivre ensemble. Surtout si un tel mode de reconstruction apporte un gain de temps et d'argent.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Au Japon, constitué d'une population vieillissante (l'âge moyen de la population d'Onagawa est de 49,5 ans. Moyenne nationale : 45 ans), les plus jeunes s'en remettent traditionnellement aux plus anciens. Ceci aussi bien lors de meetings publics qu'au sein de leurs familles.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Mais ce débat autour de la reconstruction pose la question de la survie des communautés de deux manières différentes. Si pour les uns il s'agit de préserver des coutumes ancestrales, pour les autres, il s'agit d'assurer l'avenir.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;"&lt;i&gt;Si nous construisons une maison où un tsunami peut à nouveau tout détruire, il est fort peu probable que quelqu'un vienne ici pour être ma femme&lt;/i&gt;", témoigne Hiroaki Suzuki, 21 ans, un des plus jeunes pêcheurs de la région.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Ses parents pensent qu'une reconstruction centralisée lui assurerait un meilleur avenir, mais ces derniers trouvent difficile de soutenir cette idée non seulement publiquement et surtout face à leurs propres parents.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;blockquote class="tr_bq" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;"Je voudrais dire à nos grand-pères et grand-mères, c'est difficile à dire, mais dans 10 ans, j'ai peur qu'il n'y ait plus personne du tout dans les villages qui seront reconstruits." - le père d'Hiroaki, Katsuhiro.  &lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Source:&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2012/02/13/world/asia/amid-japan-reconstruction-generational-rift-opens.html?pagewanted=2&amp;amp;_r=1" target="_blank"&gt;nytimes.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9036973971723744871-1677055759299776071?l=www.dearchaos.net' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.dearchaos.net/feeds/1677055759299776071/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.dearchaos.net/2012/02/japon-conflits-intergenerationnels.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9036973971723744871/posts/default/1677055759299776071'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9036973971723744871/posts/default/1677055759299776071'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.dearchaos.net/2012/02/japon-conflits-intergenerationnels.html' title='Japon: conflits intergénérationnels autour de la reconstruction post-tsunami'/><author><name>@Rayabi</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15239239893555561262</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='31' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-fHEdF85coKs/TlZulRi8UXI/AAAAAAAAAfE/2-lSH5ZYQnE/s220/Manga%2BBarbara.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-LmJHdyWalP4/TzublFa3EZI/AAAAAAAAA-k/iQ0obUTwf1U/s72-c/13onagawa-map-popup.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9036973971723744871.post-2066212725649363335</id><published>2012-02-14T10:03:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2012-02-14T10:03:56.965-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Digital'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Reblog'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Art'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='English'/><title type='text'>[RB] The Work of Art in the Age of Digital Animation</title><content type='html'>From&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://www.theatlantic.com/video/archive/2012/02/the-work-of-art-in-the-age-of-digital-animation/253067/" target="_blank"&gt;www.theatlantic.com&lt;/a&gt;:&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/TheAtlantic/~3/1VSkQMSlZ1Y/"&gt;The Work of Art in the Age of Digital Animation&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Like DJs who sample and remix classic songs, animators and developers have been making digital, and even interactive, versions of iconic works of art. &lt;a href="http://vimeo.com/user10348450"&gt;Petros Vrellis&lt;/a&gt; recreated Vincent Van Gogh's &lt;em&gt;Starry Night&lt;/em&gt; in &lt;a href="http://www.openframeworks.cc/"&gt;openFrameworks&lt;/a&gt;, so that viewers can touch and manipulate the swirls of color.

Petit tour, à la salle-de-bain pour la pisse royale. Je tire la chasse d'eau, l'expression étant peut-être un peu forte pour désigner l'évacuation d'un sanibroyeur.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;FIIIIIISSSSSS -- VROOUUUU -- CHHIIIII---i.i.i.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Le processus de chasse s'est coupé net dans son élan. Une partie du liquide jaunâtre remonte dans la baignoire et le lavabo, complice, rote un pet.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Les canalisations extérieures ont gelé. Il fait -10.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Pas de chiottes, pas de douche, pas de tisane de grand-mère.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;"Il faut attendre que ça dégèle!" m'informe la propriétaire.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;L'affaire s'est corsée vers 10h. Constipée depuis plusieurs semaines à cause de la préparation de ma thèse, mes intestins ont choisi ce jour-là pour se libérer. (J'ignore encore aujourd'hui pourquoi).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;10h30, toujours aucune nouvelle du dégel. Il n'y a pas à tourner autour du pot, il faut que je chie.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Une série de questions se bouscule alors au portillon.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;1) Dans l'éventualité -peu probable, mais admettons- où je recevrais de la visite (la cousine étant partie chez sa mère pour la semaine), est-il raisonnable, politiquement correct ou encore bienséant, de laisser traîner un étron dans son sanibroyeur ?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;2) Dans l'éventualité où je déciderais de, finalement, garder le chiotte propre, nickel et clean pour un invité fantôme, est-il raisonnable, politiquement correct ou encore bienséant, de déféquer dans un contenant autre qu'un WC ?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;3) Si oui, lequel ?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Total, comme la taupe devenait sauvage, j'ai opté pour la sauvegarde de ma dignité : garder un WC propre, nickel et clean, en toute circonstance. Sait-on jamais, le Prince Charmant pourrait choisir ce jour précis pour venir me sauver. Il faut donc que j'affiche mes airs de grande ménagère.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Dans la précipitation et l'angoisse, je choisis un sac. Attention, pas n'importe lequel : un sac avec un fond de terreau. Celui qu'on avait prévu d'utiliser pour rempoter le cactus que j'ai trop arrosé, et qui a donc rendu le piquant avant d'avoir atteint le stade du rempotage initiatique.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Je chie donc dans mon sac de terreau. Sait-on jamais, ça pourrait germer, on n'est pas à l'abris d'une graine. Pour conserver un minimum de dignité personnelle - rapport à mes 3 autres personnalités qui ne sont pas toutes d'accord avec cette&amp;nbsp;manœuvre -&amp;nbsp;je fais ça à côté du sanibroyeur.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Pas au milieu de la cuisine. (Rapport à l'apparition inopinée du Prince Charmant - aussi nommé le PC).&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Sait-on jamais.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Tout se passe bien. Je ficelle astucieusement le sac de terreau. Astucieusement, certes, mais pas hermétiquement. Qui dit absence d'évacuation, dit permanence de l'odeur.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Je ne tarde donc pas à ajouter une nouvelle barrière de protection à mon sac à caca que j'enfourne alors dans un sac poubelle.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Je ficelle le tout.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Permanence de l'odeur.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Nouvelle idée de génisse. Je décide de déposer le paquet sur le rebord de la fenêtre. Le micro-rebord-de-fenêtre devrais-je préciser. Histoire de le caler, je le dispose donc dans la jardinière - vide depuis le fiasco monumental de notre semi de radis.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;La journée se passe, l'évacuation s'ébroue dans l'après-midi. Devant l'absence d'irruption du PC, j'oublie la présence du sac à sapin. Je vais me coucher.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Le lendemain, il fait 12° dans la cuisine. Les canalisations vont bien, merci. Il y a eu du vent durant la nuit.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;J'ouvre la fenêtre. Plus de jardinière. Plus de paquet. Le tout s'est ramassé un étage plus bas, sur le palier du voisin du dessous.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Rapport à ma dignité et au PC, je me précipite dehors. Je descends les escaliers, traverse la petite allée latérale, arrive sur le palier du voisin, sous ma fenêtre, soulève la jardinière, et...&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;et rien. RIEN.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Disparu le sac. Disparu le caca.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Je scanne les alentours. Peut-être a-t-il volé ? Peut-être est-il tombé un peu plus loin ? Peut-être est-il tombé 20 mètres plus loin !? J'ai passé la cour au peigne fin.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Rien.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Plutôt gênée, je rebrousse chemin.

Lester K. Little and Barbara H. Rosenwein, Blackwell Publishers, 1998.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote class="tr_bq" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Traditional research has taken the meaning of the terms "people" or "tribe" for granted. In this view, a "people" is a racially and culturally highly homogeneous group sharing a common descendance and destiny, speaking the same language and living within one state. Peoples (and not individuals or social groups) were often seen as factors of continuity in a changing world, as the real subjects of history — almost immutable in its course, indeed more a natural than a historical phenomenon. Their fate was described using biological metaphors: birth, growth, flowering, and decay. This historical conception was rooted in the national movements of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, and it had its share in encouraging all kinds of chauvinist ideologies. The idea that anything apart from one people living in one state was an anomaly (and should be corrected by all means) was, tacitly or explicitly, supported by many historians. Even today, after centuries of modern nationhood, the identity of people and state is the exception and not the rule, as the examples of Switzerland, Austria, the Germans, the Jews, the Arabs, the United States, or the Soviet Union show. Today's nationalist movements in many eastern European countries have rediscovered the nineteenth-century ideal of the homogeneous nation-state; it is sad to see that after so many tragedies it has brought about, some more seem to follow, and often in the name of history.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-YYLSgbsfRKY/TzTbmgc9bvI/AAAAAAAAA9g/0ZtCWfGXQ8k/s1600/eastern-europe.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="320" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-YYLSgbsfRKY/TzTbmgc9bvI/AAAAAAAAA9g/0ZtCWfGXQ8k/s320/eastern-europe.jpg" width="254" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;The author first discusses the words "people" or "tribe" and medieval terms &lt;i&gt;ethnos&lt;/i&gt; or &lt;i&gt;gens&lt;/i&gt;, and how they were used by medieval authors. He then takes the Avars, Bulgarians, Slavs, Romans as example of "types of Ethnicity", before drawing methodological conclusions: &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;1. "Ethnicity was not an objective phenomenon . . . but it was likewise not entirely arbitrary" (Geary 1983). Therefore, we cannot expect to find direct and objective proofs of ethnic identity. The subjective ethnic consciousness of an individual or a group of people was the decisive factor; but usually we do not know what group they felt they belonged to. Yet the specific form of ethnic consciousness gave objects an ethnic dimension. Archaeological objects or data can allow hypotheses about the "ethnic practice" that once gave them their context and meaning.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;2. Many of the objects found by archaeologists may be direct or indirect expressions or symbols of ethnic identity — especially if they were left behind in ceremonial form (e.g. in burials) — but there is no object or group of objects that is ethnically unequivocal. As far as the many attempts to list distinctive and ethnically typical features have shown, almost anything can take or lose ethnic significance. Only an ensemble of objects and habits can serve as a basis for ethnic interpretation.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;3.  The written sources have preserved a great number of ethnic names that become concrete when political events or cultural expressions are recorded in connection with one of them. Many of these names are, of course, topical (like "Scythians" for the Huns). Others are names given and used by foreigners (as Venidi for the Slavs). It is possible that one and the same group is recorded under different names; but also that two groups are — justly or not — subsumed under the same name. The complexity of the relation between peoples and ethnic names should not be reduced too easily. Likewise, we should be very cautious in identifying gentes bearing the same name in different contexts. As long as there is no apparent link between the two groups of the same or similar name, no direct connections should be postulated — far less an identity, direct origin, or common ethnic substance.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;4. Archaeological cultures and ethnic groups often coincide, but they cannot always be expected to be fully identifiable. Even more so, political boundaries, ethnic territories, linguistic groups, and areas of a certain material culture should not be mixed up, for they do not necessarily have the same extension.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;5.   Different types of ethnicity should be kept in mind. They pose different problems of interpretation. As has been shown, we may assume that Avar and Slav ethnicity was based on radically different socioeconomic models; but ethnogenetic processes sometimes tend to obscure such distinctions. Thus, we cannot be sure if some Avar-style warriors would not have called themselves Slavs, or vice versa; if we want to be precise, we could speak of an individual following this or that model. However, we can reach relatively high statistical probability in such cases.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.kroraina.com/bulgar/pohl_etnicity.html" target="_blank"&gt;Whole article and references can be found here.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Image: Map of eastern Europe, view from the south.

Of course, these weren’t the only people imagining an electronic, connected world during the 1960s.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In 1964, the futurist &lt;a href="http://www.openculture.com/2011/09/arthur_c_clarke_looks_into_the_future_1964.html"&gt;Arthur C. Clarke peered into the future&lt;/a&gt; and saw our connectedness coming. By 2000, he predicted, “We could be in instant contact with each other, wherever we may be,” and “it will be possible in that age … for a man to conduct his business from Tahiti or Bali just as well as he could from London.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And then Marshall McLuhan understood the trend too. He saw electronic media turning our world into a social one, a world where services like Facebook and Twitter would make complete sense.

From NTDV’s video report, which included footage from the protests that has emerged on Chinese &lt;a href="http://chinadigitaltimes.net/china/social-media/" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with social media"&gt;social media&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;[Lu Yeqin, Villager]:&lt;br /&gt;“Officials from the village sold land. This land originally belonged to the villagers. After it was sold, the [villagers] were not given any money for it. The villagers are upset, and after all, this land was passed down through their family business. They rely on the land for their livelihood, but now it has been sold.”&lt;br /&gt;Police did not stop more than 3000 villagers from marching to the village committee, but neither have the villagers received a response from local officials.&lt;br /&gt;Local resident Mrs. Ma says the turnout has been huge.&lt;br /&gt;[Mrs. Ma, Villager]:&lt;br /&gt;“Everyone from the village came out. Today we will march again, and the whole village should come. I have even seen kids coming out, passing by my building.”&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Chinese blogosphere is buzzing with chatter about the demonstrations in &lt;a href="http://chinadigitaltimes.net/china/panhe/" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Panhe"&gt;Panhe&lt;/a&gt; East and West, where &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://tealeafnation.com/2012/02/wukan-2-0-evidence-mounts-panhe-uprising-is-real/"&gt;tensions between local residents and officials have followed a Wukan-like trajectory&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;. From Tea Leaf Nation, which also &lt;a href="http://tealeafnation.com/2012/02/the-wukan-effect-rumors-of-new-uprising-in-zhejiang-province-village/"&gt;posted images that had surfaced on Sina Weibo yesterday&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;a href="http://club.china.com/data/thread/1011/2736/93/92/5_1.html?bsh_bid=73857867"&gt;As reported on the Internet portal China.com&lt;/a&gt;, the Panhe Village Committee spent the last several years selling off piece after piece of Panhe’s land, all without the villagers’ knowledge. On June 11, 2011, a &lt;a href="http://www.qyxyw.com/CompanyInfo.aspx?nbxh=3303270090091648"&gt;Wenzhou copper company&lt;/a&gt; brought thugs and local police as it began to mine pieces of ancestral land, leading to a confrontation that saw villagers injured, including women and the elderly. The report further states that after villagers’ attempts to report the matter were ignored, they retaliated on October 16, 2011 by attacking the property of another local company. In response, the report continues, the local government arrested nine villagers, two of whom are still in custody.&lt;br /&gt;World Journal, a popular Chinese-language newspaper in North America, &lt;a href="http://www.worldjournal.com/view/full_news/17421744/article-%E6%89%93%E5%80%92%E8%B2%AA%E5%AE%98%EF%BC%81%E6%BA%AB%E5%B7%9E3000%E4%BA%BA%E6%80%92%E5%90%BC?instance=news_pics"&gt;reports&lt;/a&gt; that government officials and police fled the small village of approximately 5,000 in October of last year following a violent confrontation with villagers in which more than ten were arrested. The reports agree that villagers’ demands for compensation were substantially ignored by authorities.&lt;br /&gt;According to World Journal, the &lt;a href="http://chinadigitaltimes.net/china/wukan/" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Wukan"&gt;Wukan&lt;/a&gt; uprising’s ultimate success inspired Panhe villagers to decide to hold widespread demonstrations starting February 1.  Since that time, the report continues, demonstrators have circled the village unmolested. The street demonstrations shown in photographic accounts include demonstrators waving banners with slogans such as, “Denounce the Local Panhe Government’s Deceit Of The Masses,” “Down With Corrupt Officials,” and “Reselling Land And Destroying Fertile Farmland Is A Heinous Crime.”&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;See also CDT coverage of a &lt;a href="http://chinadigitaltimes.net/2012/02/nearly-half-china-farmers-suffer-land-grabs/"&gt;new survey in which 43% of farmers reported being victims of land grabs&lt;/a&gt;.

Michael Barton de l'Université d'Arizona.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;blockquote class="tr_bq" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;"Pour comprendre l'évolution humaine, il est aussi important de connaître la façon dont le savoir-faire d'une culture est transmis que ses données biologiques. L'évolution biologique est perçue comme le facteur déterminant d'une culture au Pléistocène, tandis que l'importance des influences culturelles n'est considérée que plus tardivement (jusqu'à nos jours). La réalité est que ces deux forces travaillent ensemble, et qu'elles étaient aussi importantes il y a 50000 ans qu'elles ne le sont aujourd'hui." - Barton.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Les chercheurs ont utilisé les données archéologiques pour traquer les changements culturels et socio-écologiques dans le comportement des populations en Eurasie occidentale, durant ces derniers 120000 ans.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Tandis que les schémas territoriaux des Néandertaliens et des premiers humains ont connu des modifications à la fin de l'ère glacière, la modélisation par ordinateur a montré que les deux populations ont commencé à interagir et cohabiter, entraînant "l'extinction" d'un des deux groupes, extinction due à "&lt;a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hybridation_de_l'ADN" target="_blank"&gt;l'hybridation&lt;/a&gt;", phénomène bien connu &amp;nbsp;en biologie de la conservation.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Michael Barton et Julien Riel-Salvatore ont étudié les outils de pierre laissés par ces peuples anciens pour mettre en évidence les mouvements des chasseurs-cueilleurs à travers l'Eurasie occidentale durant le Pléistocène.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;"&lt;i&gt;La technologie de pierre est complètement différente du type de technologie que nous avons aujourd'hui.

Their community-based and collectively held traditional knowledge accumulated and maintained through practice over countless generations, offers valuable insights into the state of the environment. Indigenous knowledge possesses chronological and landscape-specific precision and detail that is often lacking from scientific models developed by scientists at much broader spatial and temporal scale, including those used to understand the magnitude of climate change consequences. Moreover, indigenous knowledge provides a crucial foundation for community-based adaptation and mitigation actions that can sustain resilience of social-ecological systems at the interdependent local, regional, and global scales.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-1Xjq6YE-FCQ/TzDofRm5QWI/AAAAAAAAA8I/QW5m5zn8ax4/s1600/tsewang-regzin.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-1Xjq6YE-FCQ/TzDofRm5QWI/AAAAAAAAA8I/QW5m5zn8ax4/s1600/tsewang-regzin.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;To hear "indigenous voices in the global discourse", you can start with the Conversations with the Earth's Twitter account: &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/#!/ConversEarth" target="_blank"&gt;@ConversEarth&lt;/a&gt;.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Article: &lt;a href="http://newswatch.nationalgeographic.com/2012/02/06/thclimate-change-indigenous-knowledge/" target="_blank"&gt;http://newswatch.nationalgeographic.com&amp;nbsp;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Photo by Nicolas Villaume/CWE&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9036973971723744871-2009965142591460672?l=www.dearchaos.net' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.dearchaos.net/feeds/2009965142591460672/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.dearchaos.net/2012/02/voices-for-climate-change.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9036973971723744871/posts/default/2009965142591460672'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9036973971723744871/posts/default/2009965142591460672'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.dearchaos.net/2012/02/voices-for-climate-change.html' title='Voices for solutions to the crisis of climate change'/><author><name>@Rayabi</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15239239893555561262</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='31' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-fHEdF85coKs/TlZulRi8UXI/AAAAAAAAAfE/2-lSH5ZYQnE/s220/Manga%2BBarbara.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-1Xjq6YE-FCQ/TzDofRm5QWI/AAAAAAAAA8I/QW5m5zn8ax4/s72-c/tsewang-regzin.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9036973971723744871.post-811379207015054469</id><published>2012-02-07T00:51:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2012-02-07T00:52:20.182-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Questions'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Context'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='English'/><title type='text'>Traditions' comeback: the Geisha edition</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Salon.com/GlobalPost are featuring an article about the "&lt;a href="http://www.salon.com/2012/02/06/japans_surprising_geisha_revival/" target="_blank"&gt;surprising geisha revival&lt;/a&gt;".

The trainees re-create its undulating rhythm — haltingly at times — with a dance specially choreographed to suit a song that has been part of the town’s cultural fabric for 400 years.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;I am not discussing the fact of being a geisha. What i am concerned about is the feeling of sanctity revolving around the notion of "tradition".

Or it's possible that new brain-enhancing drugs and&amp;nbsp;technologies will be nothing compared to how we've transformed our minds&amp;nbsp;in the past. I&lt;span dir="ltr"&gt;f it seems that making ourselves "artificially" smarter&amp;nbsp;is somehow inhuman, it may be that similar activities are&amp;nbsp;actually what &lt;i&gt;made us human&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;Let's look at the nature of the new technology. Last week a team of ethicists from Oxford released a        &lt;a href="http://download.cell.com/images/edimages/CurrentBiology/homepage/curbio9329.pdf"&gt;paper&lt;/a&gt; on the implications of using Transcranial&amp;nbsp;Direct Current Stimulation (TDCS) to improve cognition in human beings.  Recent years have seen some encouraging, if preliminary,        &lt;a href="http://www.scientificamerican.com/article.cfm?id=amping-up-brain-function"&gt;lab results&lt;/a&gt; involving TDCS, a deep brain stimulation technique&amp;nbsp;that uses electrodes placed outside the head to direct tiny painless currents across the brain. The currents are thought to increase neuroplasticity, making it easier for neurons to fire and form the connections that enable learning. There are signs that the technology could improve language acumen, math ability, and even memory. The Oxford paper argues that TDCS has now reached a critical stage where its risks must be carefully considered before the research goes further.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline !important;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;Of course, not everyone is convinced that the technology will pan out. Some remain &lt;a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/science/blog/2011/feb/16/thinking-caps-pseudoscience-neuroscience"&gt;skeptical&lt;/a&gt; of TDCS, calling it a&amp;nbsp;fad, the latest in a long series of "neuro-myths" that bubble up when scientists distort or embellish their findings in the name of publicity. But even if brain stimulation fizzles, the questions raised by the Oxford paper are going to be with us for a long time. That's because TDCS is just one of many promising new technologies that neuroscientists hope will enhance cognition, including smart pills, genetic engineering, and brain-to-computer interfacing. As deep brain stimulation has become the flavor du jour in neuroscience, bioethicists have increasingly given it a starring role in the thought experiments they use to tease out the philosophical dilemmas posed by cognitive enhancement.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;a href="http://fds.duke.edu/db/aas/Philosophy/allen.buchanan"&gt;Allen Buchanan&lt;/a&gt; is one such bioethicist. As a Professor of Philosophy at Duke University and a consultant to the President's Council on Bioethics, Buchanan has written extensively about the ethical implications of human&amp;nbsp;enhancement. In his most recent book&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://www.amazon.com/Better-than-Human-Enhancing-Philosophy/dp/0199797870/ref=sr_1_5?s=books&amp;amp;ie=UTF8&amp;amp;qid=1328300355&amp;amp;sr=1-5"&gt;Better Than Human&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;he makes a sustained philosophical case for pursuing human enhancement, arguing that its critics often proceed from a deeply flawed understanding of human nature.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;Last week I spoke with Buchanan at length about the ethics of deep brain stimulation, the history of&amp;nbsp;cognitive enhancement, and what a world of cognitively enhanced human beings might look like.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;em&gt;Read the interview by &lt;span class="entry-source-title-parent" style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: -webkit-auto;"&gt;&lt;a class="entry-source-title" href="http://www.google.fr/reader/view/feed/http%3A%2F%2Ffeeds.feedburner.com%2FTheAtlantic?hl=fr" style="color: #1155cc; display: inline-block; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank"&gt;The Atlantic&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: -webkit-auto;"&gt; (&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="entry-author-parent" style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: -webkit-auto;"&gt;&lt;span class="entry-author-name"&gt;Ross Andersen) &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;on &lt;a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/TheAtlantic/~3/vx4RUPV5bQ0/"&gt;Why Cognitive Enhancement Is in Your Future (and Your Past)&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9036973971723744871-542758445670622244?l=www.dearchaos.net' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.dearchaos.net/feeds/542758445670622244/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.dearchaos.net/2012/02/why-cognitive-enhancement-is-in-your.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9036973971723744871/posts/default/542758445670622244'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9036973971723744871/posts/default/542758445670622244'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.dearchaos.net/2012/02/why-cognitive-enhancement-is-in-your.html' title='Why Cognitive Enhancement Is in Your Future (and Your Past)'/><author><name>@Rayabi</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15239239893555561262</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='31' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-fHEdF85coKs/TlZulRi8UXI/AAAAAAAAAfE/2-lSH5ZYQnE/s220/Manga%2BBarbara.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9036973971723744871.post-6708622902622001773</id><published>2012-02-02T11:05:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2012-02-02T11:05:47.513-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Digital'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Français'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Perception'/><title type='text'>Le deuil à l'ère digitale</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-lvRxs7oVnY4/Tyrdh3ZQAhI/AAAAAAAAA8A/ITU3gWqzEec/s1600/divers_bosch.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="640" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-lvRxs7oVnY4/Tyrdh3ZQAhI/AAAAAAAAA8A/ITU3gWqzEec/s640/divers_bosch.jpg" width="208" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Comment les technologies sociales changent-elles l'expérience de la mort pour ceux chargés du souvenir ?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;La mort, c'est l'évènement auquel personne ne peut échapper.&amp;nbsp;Les chrétiens et le "&lt;i&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.lamortdanslart.com/3m3v/3m3v.htm" target="_blank"&gt;Quod fuimus, estis; quod sumus, vos eritis&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/i&gt;" ont même répandu l'idée du grand égalisateur. En réponse à cet évènement inéluctable, toutes les cultures du monde ont mis en place des mythes et des rites, pour expliquer, rationaliser et appliquer un contrôle sur le phénomène.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Quelle que soit la forme du rituel, il s'agit souvent dans un premier temps de se rassembler : pour le défunt et/ou pour la famille (guider le mort vers l'au-delà, ou encore de réconforter les proches).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Ce rassemblement marque le début du processus de distanciation. Le défunt n'appartient plus à son réseau immédiat. Ou du moins, plus de la même manière.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Avec l'arrivée des réseaux sociaux en ligne, le processus de deuil connaît également une adaptation digitale. Les &lt;a href="http://blog.facebook.com/blog.php?post=163091042130" target="_blank"&gt;pages commémoratives&lt;/a&gt; se développent sur Facebook. Et les réponses à la mort de Michael Jackson (par exemple) ont été immédiates sur Twitter.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Les pages commémoratives permettent aux gens de ressembler et archiver des souvenirs (photos, vidéos, paroles, etc.) en un lieu précis : un espace virtuel où tout à chacun pourra revenir quand il le désire.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Ces pages (Facebook ou blogging) appartiennent au processus de distanciation déjà mentionné, tout en cristallisant le lieu du souvenir et le processus de rassemblement.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Twitter, en revanche, ne fonctionne pas de la même façon. Il ne délimite pas un espace comme MySpace ou &amp;nbsp;Facebook, il fonctionne plus comme un medium 'personnel' : les twittos tendent à commenter la tristesse des individus, à observer et rapporter les réactions publiques, au lieu de commémorer le souvenir du défunt avec des amis en particulier ou une communauté.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;On remarque que le cercle commémoratif s'agrandit. Le mot 'famille' ne se limite pas au sens 'génétique' et les 'proches' ne sont pas seulement les gens de proximité.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;L'adaptation du deuil à l'ère digitale s'inscrit dans la redéfinition de la &lt;b&gt;réalité&lt;/b&gt; de l'individu : ce sont les notions de temps, d'espace et de relations qui ont évoluées. Il s'agit d'un nouveau type de perception, diffusé par ceux que l'on appelle déjà les 'natifs digitals'.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;SOURCES:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.anthropologyinpractice.com/2010/04/death-20-digital-mourning.html" target="_blank"&gt;http://www.anthropologyinpractice.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.fastcompany.com/blog/dan-macsai/popwise/has-twitter-taken-away-our-ability-mourn" target="_blank"&gt;http://www.fastcompany.com/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.webecologyproject.org/2009/08/detecting-sadness-in-140-characters/" target="_blank"&gt;http://www.webecologyproject.org/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;IMAGE:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;La Mort de l'Avare&lt;/i&gt;, par J.

They simply copied good old models from the pre-Internet world to the digital one. &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Amazon and Ebay are selling material goods: "&lt;i&gt;These sites use the Internet to make incremental improvements on the mail-order catalog, an invention dating from the 18th century.&lt;/i&gt;"&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Netflix and iTunes "&lt;i&gt;are actually selling a service: the ability to easily locate and obtain a piece of content of high digital quality without the annoyance of searching poorly-organized illegal sites and without the fear of the viruses or annoying  ads.&lt;/i&gt;"&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;While Google and Facebook are selling your digital self(s): "&lt;i&gt;As renowned security author Bruce Schneier said at a European security conference last year, “Don’t make the mistake of thinking you’re Facebook’s customer, you’re not – you’re the product. Its customers are the advertisers.”"&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;These Internet compagnies have not been able to sell digital goods (because, "&lt;a href="http://www.dearchaos.net/2012/01/becoming-docile-copiers.html" target="_blank"&gt;Everything is a copy of a copy of a copy&lt;/a&gt;"?) because "&lt;i&gt;Any digital good by definition has an infinite supply.  This is because, in the words of Lawrence Lessig, digital means “perfect copies, freely made.”&lt;/i&gt;"&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;blockquote class="tr_bq" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;"Internet companies which provide only services, like Facebook and Google, are parasites on the rest of the economy.  They make their money by selling ads to actual companies that make and sell actual goods.  They don’t try to create or sell digital goods, because they know that content value is a function of content scarcity, which free digital copying has destroyed."&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;However, innovation in economics is a larger issue. And it reminds me of an article written by David Graeber (American anthropologist) "&lt;a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/cifamerica/2011/sep/25/occupy-wall-street-protest" target="_blank"&gt;Occupy Wall Street rediscovers the radical imagination&lt;/a&gt;":&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;blockquote class="tr_bq"&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;"[...] the ultimate failure here is of imagination. What we are witnessing can also be seen as a demand to finally have a conversation we were all supposed to have back in 2008. There was a moment, after the near-collapse of the world's financial architecture, when anything seemed possible. [...]&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;It seemed the time had come to rethink everything: the very nature of markets, money, debt; to ask what an "economy" is actually for. This lasted perhaps two weeks. Then, in one of the most colossal failures of nerve in history, we all collectively clapped our hands over our ears and tried to put things back as close as possible to the way they'd been before."&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-IXpljIQiL5M/TxWOlo7G_oI/AAAAAAAAA6w/rzQaD68ctYQ/s1600/314961_2389259883355_1006567760_2689148_467184775_n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="128" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-IXpljIQiL5M/TxWOlo7G_oI/AAAAAAAAA6w/rzQaD68ctYQ/s320/314961_2389259883355_1006567760_2689148_467184775_n.jpg" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;But, let's stay &lt;i&gt;positif&lt;/i&gt;. Innovation and imagination are not completely dead. They simply are not working fine with the money's holders.

I have the impression that the images that surround us today are worn out; they are abused and useless and exhausted. They are limping and dragging themselves behind the rest of our cultural evolution.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;When I look at the postcards in tourist shops and the images and advertisements that surround us in magazines or I turn on the television, or if I walk into a travel agency and see those huge posters with that same tedious image of the Grand Canyon on them, I truly feel there is something dangerous emerging here.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;…As a race we have become aware of certain dangers that surround us. We comprehend, for example, that nuclear power is a real danger for mankind, that over-crowding of the planet is the greatest of all. We have understood that the destruction of the environment is another enormous danger.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;But I truly believe that &lt;b&gt;the lack of adequate imagery is a danger of the same magnitude&lt;/b&gt;. It is as serious a defect as being without memory. What have we done to our images? What have we done to our embarrassed landscapes? I have said this before and will repeat it again as long as I am able to talk: &lt;b&gt;if we do not develop adequate images we will die out like dinosaurs&lt;/b&gt;. Look at the depiction of Jesus in our iconography, unchanged since the vanilla ice-cream kitsch of the Nazarene school of painting in the late nineteenth century. These images alone are sufficient proof that Christianity is moribund. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;b&gt;We need images in accordance with our civilization and our innermost conditioning&lt;/b&gt;, and this is the reason why I like any film that searches for new images no matter in what direction it moves or what story it tells. &lt;b&gt;One must dig like an archaeologist and search our violated landscape to find anything new&lt;/b&gt;. It can sometimes be a struggle to find unprocessed and fresh images."&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;-&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Werner_Herzog" target="_blank"&gt;Werner Herzog&lt;/a&gt;, from &lt;i&gt;Herzog on Herzog&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto;

And whether, when it comes to how culture and human psychology intersect, it’s time to start seeing the West as a culture too.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;And here are the two main arguments:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;* "&lt;i&gt;Actually, [culture-bound syndromes] aren’t really different. They’re all variations of somatic disorders, depression, anxiety disorders, and not really anything new.&lt;/i&gt;" (Nigerian-British psychiatrist Oyedeji Ayonrinde).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;In short, it's a description and identification problem. The susto disease, or &lt;i&gt;soul loss&lt;/i&gt;, "could be seen as just a Hispanic way of describing what Americans know as plain old depression".&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;* However, there's another to think the relationship between culture and mental health.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;"&lt;i&gt;Culture tells us what is normal, what is abnormal, what is deviant, what is not deviant, and where you seek help from&lt;/i&gt;" (Dr. Dinesh Bhugra, the Indian-British president-elect of the World Psychiatric Association).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;In short, "there may be no such thing as an illness that isn’t culture-bound". Syndromes like chronic fatigue or multiple personality disorder should/could be considered as specific to Westerners. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;On a personal note, i've always been somehow reluctant or sceptical regarding much psychological studies because of this specific question. It seemed to me that each group of cultures has always been able to perceive and shape the world as they could. Even if the human brain biologicaly works mostly the same way everywhere, those perceptions could affect the emotional answers.

It is our cultures and not our genes that determine which foods we eat, which languages we speak, which people we love and marry, and which people we kill in war. But how did our species develop a mind that is hardwired for culture—and why?&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Mark Pagel tracks this question through the last 80,000 years of human evolution.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;blockquote class="tr_bq" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;If we go back in our lineage 2 million years or so, there was a species known as homo erectus. Homo erectus is an upright ape that lived on the African savannah. It could make tools, but they were very limited tools, and those tools, the archaeological record tells us, didn't change for about 1.5 million years. That is, until about the time they went extinct. That is, they made the same tools over and over and over again, without any real changes to them.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;In short, lack of innovation = extinction of the species.&amp;nbsp;The same happened with the Neanderthals. So what's the difference between those species and the humans? That difference is something that anthropologists and archaeologists call &lt;b&gt;social learning&lt;/b&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;blockquote class="tr_bq" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;One of the first things to be aware of when talking about social learning is that it plays the same role within our societies, acting on ideas, as natural selection plays within populations of genes. Natural selection is a way of sorting among a range of genetic alternatives, and finding the best one. Social learning is a way of sifting among a range of alternative options or ideas, and choosing the best one of those. And so, we see a direct comparison between social learning driving idea evolution, by selecting the best ideas --we copy people that we think are successful, we copy good ideas, and we try to improve upon them -- and natural selection, driving genetic evolution within societies, or within populations.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;We like to think we're a highly inventive, innovative species. But social learning means that most of us can make use of what other people do, and not have to invest the time and energy in innovation ourselves.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;blockquote class="tr_bq" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;What's happening is that we might, in fact, be at a time in our history where we're being domesticated by these great big societal things, such as Facebook and the Internet. We're being domesticated by them, because fewer and fewer and fewer of us have to be innovators to get by. And so, in the cold calculus of evolution by natural selection, at no greater time in history than ever before, copiers are probably doing better than innovators. Because innovation is extraordinarily hard. My worry is that we could be moving in that direction, towards becoming more and more sort of docile copiers.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;As we're more and more connected to each other, there's more and more to copy. We realize the value in copying, and so that's what we do&lt;/i&gt;. &lt;a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-16424659" target="_blank"&gt;That's how file-sharing became a religion in Sweden just last month! It's called Kopimism (Copy me)&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The ironic part is that the one thing that allowed us to survive as species might well be today a threat. So the real question is: What is the nature of the creative process?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Mark Pagel has quite an innovative idea about it:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;blockquote class="tr_bq" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Could it be the case that the mechanism that our brain uses for coming up with new ideas is a little bit like the mechanism that our genes use for coming up with new genetic variance, which is to randomly mutate ideas that we have, or to randomly mutate genes that we have.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Basicaly, it would mean that Einstein got lucky. As he used to say "I'm no more intelligent than the next guy. I'm just more curious." If social learning, as an&amp;nbsp;evolutionary&amp;nbsp;selection, is random, then anybody could be the next Einstein. Anybody could be that innovative being who would initiate the next move of our evolution.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;And this is something that I think very few people will accept. They'll receive it with incredulity. But I like to think of it as what I call social learning and, maybe, the possibility that we are infinitely stupid&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Source: &lt;a href="http://edge.org/conversation/infinite-stupidity-edge-conversation-with-mark-pagel" target="_blank"&gt;edge.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9036973971723744871-5469064816721623517?l=www.dearchaos.net' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.dearchaos.net/feeds/5469064816721623517/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.dearchaos.net/2012/01/becoming-docile-copiers.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9036973971723744871/posts/default/5469064816721623517'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9036973971723744871/posts/default/5469064816721623517'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.dearchaos.net/2012/01/becoming-docile-copiers.html' title='Becoming docile copiers'/><author><name>@Rayabi</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15239239893555561262</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='31' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-fHEdF85coKs/TlZulRi8UXI/AAAAAAAAAfE/2-lSH5ZYQnE/s220/Manga%2BBarbara.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-_srZl6jl8tM/TwdXPYkL3lI/AAAAAAAAA5Q/aHMOMJ6cPA4/s72-c/wired.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9036973971723744871.post-9178684885317502606</id><published>2012-01-06T03:03:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2012-01-06T03:03:44.272-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Langage'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Context'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='English'/><title type='text'>New technologies will help us speak the same language without speaking the same language</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-PfI8rBrJ9h4/TwbS7qKK_1I/AAAAAAAAA5I/s9oGCiRX5aU/s1600/omron.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="150" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-PfI8rBrJ9h4/TwbS7qKK_1I/AAAAAAAAA5I/s9oGCiRX5aU/s200/omron.jpg" width="200" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;blockquote class="tr_bq"&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Omron Software Co. has developed a smartphone application that translates short English, Korean and Chinese written phrases into Japanese in less than a second.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;blockquote class="tr_bq"&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The user just aims the phone's camera and the application uses the live image of the text.

Il s'agit d'une religion (Kopimi = Copy me) dont la doctrine principale repose sur le droit de partage des fichiers.&amp;nbsp;Cette nouvelle Eglise repose sur l'idée que le "kopyacting" - partage d'information via la copie - est semblable à un service religieux.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-h2VAqwFxEmk/TwbLKDRs2uI/AAAAAAAAA5A/smHqsaCKvsI/s1600/kopimichurch.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-h2VAqwFxEmk/TwbLKDRs2uI/AAAAAAAAA5A/smHqsaCKvsI/s1600/kopimichurch.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Le Kopimisme, dont CTRL+C et CTRL+V (raccourcis pour copier et coller) comptent parmi les symboles sacrés, est focalisé sur la distribution du savoir ouverte à tous.&amp;nbsp;Cette nouvelle religion a été fondée en 2010 par Isak Gerson, étudiant en philosophie de 19 ans. Il espère ainsi mettre le partage de fichier sous protection religieuse. A la troisième tentative, en décembre dernier, ce groupe de pirates a enfin obtenu ce qu'il recherchait.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;blockquote class="tr_bq"&gt;"Pour l'Eglise du Kopimism, l'information est sacrée et copier est un sacrement.

Mais Isak Geerson considère cette renaissance dans un premier pas vers une légifération dans ce sens. "&lt;i&gt;Beaucoup de gens sont toujours inquiets à l'idée d'aller en prison lorsqu'ils copient et remixent.

Ces 95 thèses étaient des propositions, écrites en latin, qu’il souhaitait débattre de manière académique au sein de l’université. Elles remettaient en cause de comportement outrageux du dominicain Johann Tetzel qui vendait des indulgences pour prélever des fonds pour le compte du pape Leon X, ceci afin de reconstruire la basilique Saint-Pierre de Rome. En bref : “donne ton fric, ça évitera à tes proches de pourrir dans le purgatoire.”&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;Les propositions de Luther se sont rapidement répandues, d’abord au sein de l’académie puis à la population. Dès le mois de décembre 1517, les thèses étaient éditées sous forme de pamphlets et de journaux, à Leipzig, Nuremberg et Basel. Une traduction en allemand a rapidement suivi, touchant un public plus large.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;Luther écrit en 1518 : “si j’avais su la manière dont ça allait se répandre, j’aurai parlé très différemment et plus distinctement”. Pour la suite de ses publications, la même année, il s’adressa directement à la population dans un allemand susceptible d’être compris de tous les germanophones.&lt;br /&gt;“Sermon sur l’Indulgence et la Grâce” (mars 1518), premier pamphlet écrit directement en allemand, a été réprimé 14 fois cette année-là, sachant que chaque impression tirait à 1000 copies. Des 6000 différents pamphlets publiés en allemand entre 1520 et 1526, environ 1700 étaient des éditions d’une douzaine d’écrits de Luther.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;h1 style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; clear: both; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 24px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;Une campagne multimédia&lt;/h1&gt;&lt;div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;Les idées de Luther, malgré les réponses par pamphlets interposés du pape et de l’Eglise, ont bénéficié de multiples supports. En plus des mots, ses partisans ont utilisé le son et les images.&lt;br /&gt;Des balades ont été écrites ; il s’agissait d’une description poétique et souvent exagérée des évènements, placée sur un air populaire de manière à ce qu’elle puisse être apprise, chantée et diffusée facilement. Ces balades reprenaient la plupart du temps des mélodies pieuses sur lesquelles étaient ajoutées des paroles profanes.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;Les gravures étaient un des autres supports de la propagande. “&lt;em style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: transparent; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;Sans les images, nous ne pouvons ni penser, ni comprendre quoi que ce soit&lt;/em&gt;” dixit Luther.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;Les tentatives de censures ont échoué.

Wukan’s fishing fleet, its main source of income, has also been stopped from leaving harbour. &lt;/i&gt;[&lt;a href="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/asia/china/8951638/Chinese-police-besiege-town-and-cut-of-food-supplies-in-bid-to-quell-riots.html" target="_blank"&gt;more about the blockade&lt;/a&gt;]&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="326" mozallowfullscreen="" src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/33724181?portrait=0" webkitallowfullscreen="" width="580"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote class="tr_bq"&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The trouble in Wukan erupted, locals said, after years of unanswered petitions to provincial authorities asking for help adjudicating land grabs that they claimed were being orchestrated by village and neighboring city officials.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;blockquote class="tr_bq"&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;In September, a protest over land issues was met by a rush of baton-waving police officers.

Here are some abstracts instead. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;blockquote class="tr_bq" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;According to psychological sources, bullying is a specific type of aggression in which (1) the behavior is intended to harm or disturb, (2) the behavior occurs repeatedly over time, and (3) there is an imbalance of power, with a more powerful person or group attacking a less powerful one. This asymmetry of power may be physical or psychological, and the aggressive behavior may be verbal (eg, name-calling, threats), physical (eg, hitting), or psychological (eg, rumors, shunning/exclusion). The key elements of this definition are that multiple means can be employed by the bully or bullies, intimidation is the goal, and bullying can happen on a one-on-one or group basis.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;blockquote class="tr_bq" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;In some cases bullying is used to maintain social order and ensure that no one acquires too much dominance, status or personal power. In other cases, bullying is harmful and used to injure others physically, emotionally or socially.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;blockquote class="tr_bq" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;When bullying is considered across animals, there is ample evidence that many other animals, including other primates, engage in bullying-like behaviors. [...] Mice that suffered repeated social defeats were more anxious and experienced changes in brain chemistry (Kinsey et al, 2007). Bullying-like behaviors extend beyond rodents, and labs, appearing in many species, including other primates.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;blockquote class="tr_bq" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Much like their human cousins, adolescent male chimpanzees begin at the bottom of the male dominance hierarchy (Goodall, 1986) and have to demonstrate their value as a friend and ally, while growing and putting on muscle mass in order to move up the hierarchy. Because adolescent males are smaller, weaker, less experienced and have to challenge other males in order to become competitive, they make attractive targets for older males, and older adolescents and adults regularly attack them (Sherrow, 2008). In short, adolescent males are almost continually bullied as they attempt to join the male social world.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;blockquote class="tr_bq"&gt;Bullying-like behaviors provide the individuals who engage in them with advantages over their targets, through enhanced status or access to resources, or both.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;blockquote class="tr_bq"&gt;the most intensive bullying was found in countries where violence and social intolerance are the most commonplace.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;blockquote class="tr_bq"&gt;It is only through incorporating a deeper understanding of the antiquity of a behavior like bullying in our policies that we can hope to alter its impact on society.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Read it all on&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://blogs.scientificamerican.com/guest-blog/2011/12/15/the-origins-of-bullying/" target="_blank"&gt;blogs.scientificamerican.com&lt;/a&gt;!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9036973971723744871-5496923162243075458?l=www.dearchaos.net' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9036973971723744871/posts/default/5496923162243075458'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9036973971723744871/posts/default/5496923162243075458'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.dearchaos.net/2011/12/origins-of-bullying.html' title='The origins of bullying'/><author><name>@Rayabi</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15239239893555561262</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='31' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-fHEdF85coKs/TlZulRi8UXI/AAAAAAAAAfE/2-lSH5ZYQnE/s220/Manga%2BBarbara.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-VeLLrhYSXJQ/TupUL9lYdKI/AAAAAAAAA0s/yjuL87A-G-I/s72-c/bullied.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9036973971723744871.post-5797441235161371098</id><published>2011-12-15T10:24:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2011-12-15T10:24:19.681-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Context'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='English'/><title type='text'>[The Big Picture] Homelessness</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.boston.com/bigpicture/2011/12/homelessness_around_the_world.html" target="_blank"&gt;31 pictures of "Homelessness around the world", by The Big Picture&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;A homeless woman and her child sleep on a bench in a park in Manila's Chinatown Dec. 13&lt;/i&gt;.

Après changement de point de vue de l’image, il s’agissait en fait d’un visage.&lt;br /&gt;“&lt;em style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: transparent; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;Toutes les informations étaient là, mais tu ne peux pas extraire toutes ces informations.&lt;/em&gt;“&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;La même chose est vraie pour les images astronomiques : il y a sûrement beaucoup plus d’informations en elle que nous ne pouvons comprendre.

Celle-ci va être envoyée à Esslingen, près de Stuttgart, où elle sera démantelée puis rassemblée pièce par pièce avec les nouveaux éléments. Reconstitution qui devrait permettre d’apporter de nouveaux indices sur le rôle et la nature de ce type d’objets.&lt;br /&gt;Mais le développement de l’article en dit beaucoup plus sur la mentalité actuelle que sur cette figurine d’un autre temps.&lt;span id="more-409" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: transparent; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;&lt;strong style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: transparent; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;“Lion Man” ou “Homme Lion”&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;Découverte en 1939 dans la grotte de Hohlenstein-Stadel (Allemagne), elle est assemblée et restaurée en 1998 par Ute Wolf et Elisabeth Schmid. Haute d’environ 30 cm, elle a été sculptée dans une défense d’éléphant. Son créateur l’aurait ensuite polie avec de la salive et du cuir. Il lui aurait en tout fallu 320 heures pour achever son travail. Datée du Paléolithique, son âge est estimé à environ 32 000 ans. C’est une vieille chose à qui il manque 30% des éléments, et qui souffre, de fait, d’une reconstitution approximative.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;D’où les débats autour de son identité. Il s’agit d’une tête de lion sur un corps humain debout. Mais Joachim Hahn (archéologue) l’a classé dans la catégorie “mâle”, tandis qu’Elisabeth Schmid (paléontologue) la perçoit comme une “femme”. Ce qui leur pose problème, c’est l’interprétation du bas de l’abdomen : le premier pense qu’il s’agit pénis redressé, la deuxième y voit un triangle pubien.&lt;br /&gt;Devant le manque de certitude scientifique, la statuette est depuis lors désignée comme “lion headed figurine”, ou “Löwenmensch”, soit “la figurine à tête de lion”, ou “l’humain lion”. De manière neutre et non catégorisée, ce que ne fait pas l’auteur de l’article qui présente la statue comme un homme qu’il faudrait éventuellement redéfinir comme une femme.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-MkrcJ_dGqNc/TwSPkGXpSLI/AAAAAAAAA3Y/bVosWgntcWM/s1600/lionwoman.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="320" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-MkrcJ_dGqNc/TwSPkGXpSLI/AAAAAAAAA3Y/bVosWgntcWM/s320/lionwoman.jpg" width="213" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;&lt;strong style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: transparent; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;Cette question du genre&lt;/strong&gt;, l’auteur de l’article en fait une de ces problématiques centrales. Il termine même sur une citation visiblement arrachée aux chercheurs : “&lt;em style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: transparent; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;nous déterminerons le genre.&lt;/em&gt;“&lt;br /&gt;Le genre (s’il était marqué et intentionnellement distinctif) bien qu’important pour restituer la nature d’origine de la représentation, n’est cependant en aucun plus important que les autres éléments constitutifs. Il s’agit d’un corps humain avec une tête de lion (lion des cavernes aujourd’hui éteint) ! Le discours de l’image transcende à lui seul nos catégories culturelles.&lt;br /&gt;Mais ce n’est pas la figurine qui intéresse l’auteur. C’est la possibilité que ce soit une femme. Possibilité qu’il semble avoir du mal à concevoir :&lt;br /&gt;“&lt;em style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: transparent; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;Ceux qui croient que l’Homme-Lion est en fait une femme sont convaincus que ces sociétés primitives étaient matriarcales. Ils soutiennent que les femmes de cette période, au lieu de rester docilement à cuisiner et s’occuper des enfants, allaient chasser les mammouths et donnaient le ton au niveau des rituels et des cultes. Mais est-ce vrai ?&lt;/em&gt;“&lt;br /&gt;L’auteur ne sait pas réfléchir sur la question du genre et pose des questions ethnocentrées sur la base de son éducation patriarcale. Plutôt que de définir la notion de matriarcat, il renverse les schémas. Dans son idée, seules les activités masculines peuvent être synonymes de pouvoir, en conséquence si, dans une société, la femme a le pouvoir, c’est qu’elle exécute les tâches de l’homme.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;&lt;strong style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: transparent; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;La question du chamane&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;est l’autre aspect qu’a choisi de développer l’auteur. Hypothèse a été émise selon laquelle il ne s’agirait pas d’une tête de lion sur un corps humain, mais plus concrètement d’un être humain recouvert d’une fourrure animale. Pour illustrer cette idée, l’auteur dresse le tableau :&lt;br /&gt;“&lt;em style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: transparent; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;Il est considéré comme probable que les sorciers préhistoriques revêtaient des fourrures comme costumes quand ils célébraient les rituels autour du feu de camp.&lt;/em&gt;“&lt;br /&gt;Plutôt que de présenter les arguments des scientifiques, il fait appel à l’imaginaire culturel : toi aussi tu te souviens d’un sorcier avec une peau sur la tête et d’un feu de camp.

Mais cette figurine n’a été présentée, au grand public que sous l’angle de notre vision contemporaine (et non selon les considérations scientifiques). C’est-à-dire qu’à défaut, elle représente nécessaire une entité réaliste : ce n’est pas une créature mythique, c’est un chamane avec une peau. Et comme les chamanes d’aujourd’hui sont principalement des hommes (faux), alors, c’est probablement un homme également (faux). Or, une culture de transmission orale et rituelle (avec ou sans feu de camp) n’avait sûrement pas la même perception fragmentée que notre culture occidentale moderne. Cette figurine pourrait tout aussi bien être l’image d’une créature d’un monde autre (des dieux, des esprits, des rêves, etc). Elle pourrait également être une visualisation d’une entité spirituelle : une force animale de type lion et un mouvement de type humain allié à une capacité créatrice de type féminin (dans l’éventualité où le trait du bas-ventre correspond au triangle pubien).&lt;br /&gt;Il y a avait une série de considérations intéressantes à aborder, sur la base du fait scientifique apporté, pour alimenter de manière constructive les questions actuelle du genre et de la sauvagerie. Mais non, l’auteur a ici opté pour le consensus médiatique, à grand renfort d’images culturelles bien connues, mettant volontairement de côté les réserves des chercheurs comme&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://www.stonepages.com/news/archives/004323.html" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: transparent; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; color: #00adef; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;" target="_blank"&gt;Claus-Joachim Kind&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;:&lt;br /&gt;“&lt;em style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: transparent; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;Cette figurine a probablement été utilisé dans le cadre d’une religion de type chamanique.

Alors que jusqu’à présent, les textes médiévaux étaient lu comme des glorifications de la violence des héros, grâce aux apports de la psychologie militaire moderne, T. Heebøll-Holm a pu mettre en lumière la manière dont la population percevait l’utilisation de la violence (souvent mortelle) des chevaliers.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;Selon lui, c’est le contexte qui confrontait les gens à un choix : être violent ou accorder le pardon. Ce choix répandu dans la population générale était dû à la faiblesse du pouvoir judiciaire qu’un certain code d’honneur devait palier. Il appartenait aux individus de s’assurer que leur honneur n’était pas abusé par d’autres. Certains devaient alors tuer pour faire la démonstration de leur volonté à assurer leurs droits.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;Dans le cas des chevaliers en guerre, ils se devaient d’obéir aux ordres. Mais pour ne pas sombrer dans la folie, comme en témoigne un texte de Geoffrei de Charny (première moitié du 14ème siècle), le chevalier devait combattre pour une noble cause : celle de Dieu.&lt;br /&gt;Son témoignage rapporte également les conditions de vie du chevalier : manque de sommeil, faim et le sentiment que même la nature va à son encontre.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;“&lt;em style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: transparent; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;De Charny décrit des facteurs de stress que nous voyons également rapportés par la psychologie militaire moderne, notamment par les rapports des vétérans de la guerre du Vietnam. Ce portrait des chevaliers est bien loin de l’image de violent psychopathe que nous avons d’eux.&lt;/em&gt;” – Thomas Heebøll-Holm&lt;span id="more-405" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: transparent; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;Selon cette étude, les chevaliers médiévaux n’étaient donc pas violents de nature ou de culture, mais devaient accomplir un travail avec toutes les conséquences psychologiques que cela impliquent sur la psyché humaine. De même l’individu, pour assurer son honneur, se trouvait-il souvent confronté au choix de la violence ou du pardon.&lt;br /&gt;C’est une histoire de la perception de la violence que propose ici Thomas Heebøll-Holm, laquelle ne s’exerçaient pas dans les mêmes conditions mais produisaient, semble-t-il, les mêmes effets psychologiques.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="background-attachment: initial;

The masks I have made are a comment to the masks which was destroyed after Greenland was colonized in 1721. Making the new masks in stone and particularly in bronze I try to hold on to thought of the lost masks, well knowing my masks will be disintegrated with time.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Sources:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.denrodesnescooter.dk/artist_6.html"&gt;denrodesnescooter.dk&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;a href="http://inuitattackatigiit.tumblr.com/post/13845823757/miki-jacobsen-a-play-on-masks-as-an"&gt;inuitattackatigiit.tumblr.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9036973971723744871-5391784536804620936?l=www.dearchaos.net' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9036973971723744871/posts/default/5391784536804620936'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9036973971723744871/posts/default/5391784536804620936'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.dearchaos.net/2011/12/masks-of-miki-jacobsen.html' title='The masks of Miki Jacobsen'/><author><name>@Rayabi</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15239239893555561262</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='31' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-fHEdF85coKs/TlZulRi8UXI/AAAAAAAAAfE/2-lSH5ZYQnE/s220/Manga%2BBarbara.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-x7jZYyBu82o/TuCBAaar58I/AAAAAAAAAzw/3bO70Pjr7tw/s72-c/jacobsenmask.jpg' height='72' width='72'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9036973971723744871.post-8205110707735437174</id><published>2011-12-05T21:47:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2011-12-05T21:53:21.891-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Creative'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Rad Roots'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='English'/><title type='text'>Dear Disney, this is how it should be done</title><content type='html'>Twisted version of Sleeping Beauty by Sarah White, on &lt;a href="http://shira-chan.deviantart.com/gallery/3417614#/d26an58"&gt;DeviantArt&lt;/a&gt;

En effet, dans le cadre de mes hypothèses de définition des images païennes et syncrétiques de bateaux en Scandinavie en particulier, il m’a fallu aborder la question de la perception culturelle que ces gens avaient du bateau d’une part, et de l’image d’autre part. Pour se faire, je me suis largement appuyée sur les nombreux travaux de Régis Boyer, et plus particulièrement&amp;nbsp;&lt;em style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: transparent; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;Le Monde du Double&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;(1986). A partir de là, hypothèse a pu être avancée selon laquelle les anciens Scandinaves percevaient l’image – tant mentale (rêves ou visions par exemple) que visuelle – comme un double ‘réel’ du monde environnant. Nous étions donc en présence d’images perçues comme médiatrices entre un monde matériel et un monde double.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;Or pour définir un tel positionnement perceptif, l’anthropologue ou l’historien occidental a recourt au terme «&amp;nbsp;chamane&amp;nbsp;», l’être psychopompe qui communique avec les mondes spirituels. R. Boyer emploie, quant à lui, plus volontiers celui de ‘magicien’. Au moment où j’abordais cette question de définition d’un tel positionnement perceptif culturel, ‘magicien’ m’a paru presque puéril, Harry Potter oblige. J’ai donc préféré l’expression ‘monde du double’ pour désigner la conceptualisation des espaces-temps par ces cultures nordiques, et est utilisée (entre autres) le mot ‘chamane’ pour en désigner les acteurs officiants.&lt;br /&gt;Mais peu avant ma soutenance, j’ai reçu un coup de téléphone de ma mère laquelle me dit en substance&amp;nbsp;: «&amp;nbsp;Barbara, fais attention lors de ta soutenance, le chamanisme est très controversé dans le milieu de la recherche.&amp;nbsp;» (Elle venait de lire un article sur l’introduction de certaines techniques de massages dans certains hôpitaux et leurs controverses).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;Elle avait raison. Qu’est-ce qui a accroché lors de la soutenance&amp;nbsp;? L’utilisation du terme «&amp;nbsp;chamanisme&amp;nbsp;». N’a pas été remis en question la définition et l’analyse de la perception en tant que telle. Non. Uniquement l’utilisation du mot.&lt;span id="more-366" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: transparent; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;h2 style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; clear: both; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 22px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;Règle fondamentale&amp;nbsp;: tout chercheur doit bannir les ouvrages de Mircea Eliade&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;Du moins dans ses références. En effet celui-ci est accusé de «&amp;nbsp;révélation religieuse plutôt que démonstration scientifique&amp;nbsp;» (BAHN P. G., 2006, p. 14). Il manque en effet de méthodes, n’a pas fait de terrains et mélange les religions. En somme, l’homme en quête n’est pas un homme d’analyse scientifique. C’est ce que j’avais, en effet, ressenti lors de mon cursus d’histoire de l’art qui jamais n’a abordé les théories d’Eliade. C’est seulement au cours de la (fin) rédaction de ma thèse et dans ma recherche d’une définition de l’état perceptif de mes païens nordiques que je m’y suis penchée.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;«&amp;nbsp;Le chamanisme s’applique à un culte archaïque répandu dans tout le continent nord-asiatique, il postule un spiritualisme vivant et l’existence d’un autre monde avec lequel le prêtre-sorcier ou chamane est susceptible d’entrer en communication&amp;nbsp;» (BOYER R., 1992, p. 148, d’après ELIADE M., 1974).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;Mais ce qui angoisse les chercheurs contemporains, c’est le postulat de base d’Eliade (1968, p. 22) :&lt;/div&gt;&lt;blockquote style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; color: #666666; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: italic; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 15px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 10px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; quotes: none; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;&lt;div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: transparent; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;«&amp;nbsp;chamanisme = technique de l’extase&amp;nbsp;»&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;"&gt;Car ceci permet d’y ranger à peu près toutes les religions. En effet, dans cette définition, peuvent être aussi bien inclus les rituels basés sur les boissons hallucinogènes tels que l’Ayahuesca, que sainte Thérèse d’Avila et sa célèbre ‘extase’.

Cette notion des trois stades de la transe a depuis été réfutée par de nombreux neuropsychologues, ce que rappelle le plus grand détracteur de J. Clottes, P.G. Bahn (2006, p. 14)&amp;nbsp;: «&amp;nbsp;Le modèle des trois étapes de la transe est en réalité sans fondement, les travaux classiques de neurologie l’ignorent. […] La référence aux hallucinations est totalement inutile pour rendre compte de quelques types d’image rupestre que ce soit.

Une partie de la recherche, celle notamment soutenue par les médias et la culture populaire, exploite et adopte l’état de transe comme principe fondateur de systèmes culturels historiques et contemporains divers, tandis que l’autre la réfute, parfois avec force et sarcasmes (ce qui rend la lecture parfois douloureuse).

Dans sa grande bonté. Nous avons donc mis temporairement en commun nos revenus respectifs. A savoir, 300 euros pour sa part, et 320 de la mienne.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;La société pense que l'on peut vivre individuellement avec 300 euros par mois. Faux.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Mes 300 me viennent de la CAF. Les siens lui viennent de son père (lequel, retraité ayant bossé non-stop depuis l'âge de 14 ans, doit assumer quelques boulots pour couvrir ses fins de mois tellement sa rente est faible). Bref, nous vivons en dessous du seuil de pauvreté.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Merci &amp;nbsp;la société.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Nous formons à nous deux de parfaites candidates pour Occupy Wall Street. Mais en fait, non. Pas le temps.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Etre pauvre, c'est un boulot de tous les instants. Elle paye le loyer, je paye les courses. Le problème, c'est que les 27 derniers jours du mois, sont très longs. Pas de sorties, pas de loisir, que dalle. Il faut donc faire preuve d'IMAGINATION pour ne pas sombrer dans la dépression sans fond.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Faire les courses, ça va vite : des pâtes, du riz. Mais tu ne manges pas à ta faim. Enfin, si, techniquement, 1 kg de pâtes, ça cale. Mais ça n'a pas de goût, pas de fantaisie, pas de nuance, ça rend aigri.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Mais bingo! l'autre jour, rayon fruits &amp;amp; légumes, il y a du nouveau. Quand tu es pauvre, tu ne prends pas de fruits-légumes à plus d'un euro le kg. En général, on repart avec une batavia. Et nous sommes d'ailleurs très déçues par les pommes de terre, soit disant ultime ressource lors de la grande famine irlandaise, et bah là, que dalle, c'est hors de prix (comprenez que c'est à plus d'un euro le kg).&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Bim ! Ce jours-là, y'a du nouveau donc : LE CHOU. Le machin de chou-fleur est à 1 EURO.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;TROP BIEN ! Nouvel aliment, nouveau goût, fantaisie gustative et vitamine C !&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;On a pris un chou-fleur.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Grosse odeur de souffre dans le studio pendant TOUT le weekend. Le dimanche, on appelle donc GrandMa.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;"Mémé, il faut que tu aides. On doit cuisiner un chou-fleur."&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Elle rit. Puis nous donne un tuyau : "mettez du pain dans l'eau pour que ça ne sente pas pendant la cuisson".&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Nous, on est pauvre, et le pain a été retiré de la liste des courses depuis longtemps (il n'a qu'à pas augmenter comme un con).&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;On a contourné le problème en ouvrant la fenêtre (on s'en fout, on n'a pas les moyens de chauffer, de toute façon, mais ça, on y est habitué depuis déjà 2 ans).&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;La cuisson s'est bien passée. Pas d'odeur particulière, ou alors tellement imprégnée dans nos naseaux qu'on n'a rien senti d'autre. C'était bon. On était heureuses. On a mangé du chou-fleur, ça nous changeait des pâtes.
