On the suspension of SIMO, in Five Days
My mandatory exchange of messages with Marimar Jimenez, Five Days, as is becoming customary whenever there are events that analyze, appears in part to "look at other fairs SIMO recipes for revival in 2009" (pdf). The full text was this;
The answer lies in analyzing what are the components and proposals for a fair value. For some, this is a place to submit proposals and come into contact with it last emerged in the sector. For others, this is an opportunity for networking , an appointment sector. And for others, is something that should be a business with an economic sense, so that feature was based on the sale of physical space. Where the problem arises? If we speak of SIMO, a crossroads of the Spanish technology sector, it is clear that the conflict arises when we note that the Wizard is a usual and customary for easy access to the content you want through your computer, on the websites of the companies themselves, in the press of the channel, in newspapers, on blogs, and so on. If the sector has developed any new channels for filing an immediate, what is the value of the show itself? Moreover, who is going to expect, in a sector that is going to a brutal speed, to reach the annual fair to present anything, when something in addition to present fair means coincide with other competitors and be buried under a huge amount of interference? The best product launches today have no place in a fair, but on the web or own events to which the company calls journalists, fans, communities of developers, and so on.
The value as a meeting place and for the networking now is weighted according to the specialization: events very open, with assistants or mixed with the general public, risk being tried as an added value lower for the professional, that ultimately tends to have the decision whether or not to invest in making a stand. Conferences such as the CeBIT in Hanover or the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas are here: big events, much spectacle, but increasingly perceived as more general and less value for the interests of the profession.
The displacement of the genre seems to be directed towards strengthening the capacity as a meeting point: either disappeared or minimized the incentive for product launches, trade shows tend to reinforce their event, conference, round table or place in which Pressing health or conditions of the industry. Last year, SIMO advanced nature nestled in that event as FICOD, SIMO Knowledge or APEX, with interesting results but obtained support from the companies qualified in the best case as "lukewarm". My impression regarding the work being developed to redefine the IFEMA SIMO - surely even at the level of name, because what the "International Symposium of the Office Furniture" because it sounds quite anachronistic - is that it may be going in that direction: to strengthen aspects in which it can really add value attendance, and therefore more of an event / meeting and less exposure to product. The challenge, of course, is to equip this model of economic sense for a IFEMA customarily used the square meters occupied as a metric for success, and clarify what might be, in an event of this kind, the involvement of businesses to economically take sense .
Good 80
By Pepe Barbosa .
It is not enough time to stand 80. Nothing is more pathetic that fat checkbook with a view to remember his day of glory in these profitable holiday where people dance unleashed Miguel Mateos, GIT and Los Enanitos Verdes. For more auction more and more radios dedicated to these and other joyitas of the time. No doubt, it sells ochentero and both have exploited the phenomenon that barely hear something about starting the arcades.
But something else happened to me advertising a new series of Channel 13. It was last Sunday when I was stuck in the invitation that you wore esthetic with her 25 years ago of one. Hours later returned to cling to the first chapter that I returned the faith in Chilean television. One always claimed that the entertainment we have cool, that programming is ordinary, there are no programs that worthwhile, but in The 80 There is a mask for all these comments.
With pace film, The 80 revives an era without pretensions more than that. Chile a not-so-distant in time but too different from today. Chile a free cable, Internet and cellular. Chile a more naive. More romantic. The core is a middle class family that is Juan Herrera (Daniel Munoz), worked for a company worker and Ana (Tamara Acosta), a typical housewife. The economic crisis of 1982 is the obstacle to be overcome marriage with her three children displayed their simple stories interspersed with archive of the time. A documentary series with touches that shapes a universe of events that bind our own rewind tape.
The Flippers, the first color television, the little angels who opened the broadcasts of Channel 13, Pinochet, the national chains of terror, Fantasilandia, pass the pig, with the radio dial, romantic songs in Spanish, the selection in Spain 82, the parity of the dollar, the newspaper of Cooperative, the Cazely idol, Julio Martinez, the voice of Javier Miranda, the former micros, the North Star sneakers, jackets divers with lines in the sleeves, the comments of international Jose Maria Navasal, Sonia Viveros, the pichangas on the street, the business of "Buy a car parakeet," the Chevrolet Chevette, the haircut "to the brave prince," pockets for school, the excesses of the Mapocho. Everything blends subtly into the 80, a remarkable radiograph of a disappeared Chile leaves a taste of nostalgia .

Since Society Network
Second day of Red Society, the conference which we have already spoken on other occasions, and the result could not be more satisfying: good seats, very interesting papers (there are summaries of the papers, for now in English , In the event of the page), and above all, very good atmosphere for talks and participation at question time and in the hallways, in large measure - I believe - influenced by the fact that he had advertised the conference only through our respective Pages, which gives him a certain atmosphere to be among people who know and share some common places.
During the dinner speakers, we had an extremely interesting opportunity to share a conversation with Carol Darr and Andrew Rasiej, both with a very direct involvement in the American election campaign, and Ethan Zuckerman, who also adds to it a very marked vision and international experience and to finish the round, culminating with the third debate Obama - McCain at three o'clock (which we already saw in each room and the god of all :-) A very important part of the discussion revolved around what will happen with the strong presence on the Internet and pages of the candidates pass once the election period, primarily in the case of Barack Obama: Will it be his strong commitment by the use of the Internet a cyclical issue , A tool of political marketing, or represent a permanent calling for transparency, communication and information contribution? Is it close or freeze MyBarackObama.com, or will remain as a permanent channel of communication with those groups that have proven so valuable during the course of the campaign in terms of funding and image? While the Spaniards appeared disenchanted and presenting an overview of opportunistic politicians who use the Internet as a resource for a more careful marketing mix , but do not believe in any way in its use beyond the campaign, argued that Andrew This time there was a vast difference in scale, scope and magnitude with previous campaigns, and that this led to the return is not possible: that the closure of the site would spark a set of very strong negative reactions at all those people who had collaborated online in the campaign - citing the case of his father, seventy-odd years and with a level of use of tools of the network rather scarce, but now is devoted to send videos to friends of Obama via email - and that this could generate even answer the protest organized.
According to Andrew Rasiej, we have reached the point where it no longer uses the Internet only politics but the Internet is changing dramatically the way we do politics. A very interesting discussion, which will soon also new evidence ...

The size does matter!
ENIAC (Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer) is the name of the project and what is considered the first digital computer, this adventure began at the University of Pennsylvania from 1943 to 1946, guess funded by the U.S. military, their first application was military.
Its dimensions are 167 m2, 27 tons of weight used the antecedent to the integrated circuit vacuum tubes, glass diodes, 1500 and required manual operation switches 6000 switches.
In just 60 years humankind has witnessed tremendous progress of computers, since the first transistors were then in 1958 Jack St Clair Kilby designed the first integrated circuit that it would revolutionize the fledgling world of computing as it would allow the miniaturization of electronic devices because an integrated circuit could contain up to 20 transistors.
The ENIAC project cost was $ 750,000 U.S. dollars to a linear conversion to dollars of 2008 could be wrong but more or less equivalent to 750000000 dls today. Currently in the informal market of Mexico City is possible to get a scientific calculator (China obviously) by 80 cents on the dollar and with a processing capacity greater than the first computer invented by man.
According to some scholars the digital revolution driven by integrated circuits is one of the most prominent events in the history of mankind.
Manufacturers have doubled the number of transistors that integrated a chip every 18 months as predicted Moore's Law, even as the size of these has been reduced to the scale of atoms, manufacturers are approaching the limits of the miniaturization.
Microprocessors, are now advanced integrated circuits. The cost of the design and development of this type of integrated circuit is quite high, even if this cost is divided among millions of units of production, the cost of IT was reduced to a minimum.
What would have happened if this rate of progress in the investigation had been applied in the internal combustion engine of the car?, Which brings in our daily lives more than 100 years. The oil business, would not exist because there has been speculation that the price of a car would be pennies on the dollar and most likely would fly.

My trickery on sex
By Teresa Campaign .
The concept knack , as such, it held my mom to say that I was a kid difficult at lunchtime because I do not eat the tortilla chard, who did not swallow because of this, because it was a hands . "Let yourself be hands-on continuing, because the world is full of little girls who do not have what to eat and be happy to serve a tortilla chard." Mmm ... No, Mommy, I do not think even the second half, but in the end, turn that concept, coined as faithfully for you, but this time to describe certain tastes in bed in the middle of the sexual act. Not what you say, of course. You would a heart attack and you die spot.
MANA NUMBER ONE: "No alum, if he is going to do, do it "
He began to sixteen. She was with E (well call it), one of my first pololos, and amid the warmth of a kiss Quinceañeras, the boy looked at me and told me: "I want to make love with you, Teresa." My face was "no repeat, do not understand." Or is not. "For no reason, Don E. Get him out of your head, "because that affects me. It was not the idea of doing what surely came imagining Don E teenager in his head for quite a while longer, but what bothered me deeply of the sentence was the breakthrough, the warning, the annunciation of the act. From then on, thanks to Don E, I never liked the idea: "Teresa, and therefore we are given, the hare jumps tonight." No, no, no. I did not come the new "E 2.0" with information overload. Or as they occur and generate an atmosphere addressed, or maybe I can think to myself exits and unbelievable, or anything. But, sorry, that the advance publicity of the product is not going with me. Viva improvisation. The unexpected excitement.
MANA NUMBER TWO: "Calugasos out "
It needs a little explanation. Because otherwise it will stay as a professional meretriz, a girl from the night of that charge by what I do with pleasure. And it is not uncommon that happen, because my knack number two came from there, in this world of flesh trade. Years ago I saw a movie and fell in on me: it was not the original Teresa morning. And is that while I did not have sex while kissing. I do not kiss on the mouth while I love. And it is not a statement of principles or anything, if at times I have broken my own rules, never so structured, but I was devolved to the besuqueo. Clearly prefer to look at his face and shaking or breathing articulating the movement of the rest of the parts of my body, because that is crying out attention is my friend, Miss vagina. It's like my body genital told me: "Come on, Teresa, focus on me and let it also concentrated! ... If you believe in me, the most secure, both arrived at Point G!"
That's why I should not be kissing. It has nothing to do with the prostitutes and their fear of falling in love, has to do with the fact that I like being with my mouth away from his mouth and stuck with my pelvis Fix Stick to it. Box office ¿no?
MANA NUMBER THREE: "quiet you look more beautiful"
I loaded the chatterbox. I load the conversation in the middle of the act. I do not like, I do not know why. Some people say that takes advantage of all that, not being excited, can not say, or takes the time to establish its length in the middle of the seesaw of the bodies and that gives me the can. Why not hope for later, when we are resting side by side and talked all that haunts us on the day and at work? Why do not we see tomorrow what the holidays? Why do not you become smarter and you're going to love me more than your ex polola garments when the cigarette and now that I're not penetrating to the first four letters of this word? Without further explanation, shut your mouth.
Well, this issue of trickery means the only person who did not eat all meals with pleasure when an infant. But perhaps all that and we all have a knack another. I know because anduve probing and some friends believe that after every dust must change the sheets, others feel they can not do it if the TV is turned on, others do not like to tighten the force breasts or get angry that you say "Touch your breasts the same." In fact, to me nor I like that. Actually I like thousands of other things, in fact, sex me hallucinations. But that touch of yourself, not like me. Chute, and took four. I'm the worst. Goat girl Mañosa, having so many people in the world who are happy eat the entire omelette!
Time change
Valparaiso has festival
And a particular good. During the 6 and Dec. 13 will take place in the city of Buenos Aires Container Theater Festival, as its name says, has the grace that all works are mounted inside one of these metal boxes. A pin .
By Natalia Araya .
The actor and theater director, Nicolas Eyzaguirre, and the architect Daniela Gutierrez were mochileando by Mexico a couple of years ago. Pretty good, until one night found themselves without shelter and had to sleep inside a container that they found in the town of Delicias, in Chihuahua.
This first encounter with a metallic, closed two and a half meters wide, two and a half tall and just over twelve long, was inspirational for both. There was where they happened to transform and convert this metal box in a chamber theater, in a direct and intimate room, which benefited within their own limitations to work and to the public.
Three months later, in December 2007, involved the Plaza Sotomayor of Valparaiso with the first stage in this new format. The play was chosen Talk to me like the rain and let me listen of Tenessee Williams, who was seen by more than 300 people in its four-week exhibition. His good acceptance led them to present it in front of the Palacio de La Moneda, in May this year, and later in the town of La Victoria, where he had the best reception.
Driven by the success of this first experience and versatility of potential new arena that invented, took to the organization Theater Festival Container in Valparaiso. "We realized that while cultural heritage is a very powerful here in the concrete had generated few areas where quality performing arts," says Andrew Pedreros executive producer of the event. The big party will have its first theatrical release from 6 until December 13, in various places and public spaces of the port. Will be presented about 12 works, mostly created especially for this format. Not only will the theater but also music, dance and visual arts.
Perhaps one of the major novelties will be the presentation of the Mexican company Huey rope, led by Gonzalo Gutierrez, who displayed his composition "ropes for container": a concert that was interpreted as a pentagon with two floors built of container, in which Internal cables tensioned will be pressed with the hands, harps and magnets.
Among the experiments scenic works will be developed, such as the Belgian Baboum Container 'to' and the Chilean-American Chicken, chicken, chicken Harmony's performa Molina, among others, and national, as Violeta < >, Which covers the life of singer and songwriter Chilean Violeta Parra through his music and texts, and Capital , assembly prepared exclusively for this occasion by the company La Maria.
THEATER IN CONTAINER
The containers are an essential part of the landscape of Buenos Aires. With miles of coastline there are thousands of these containers piled up, waiting their turn to be loaded or unloaded with goods entering and exiting the country. "The container a very strong sign of the Buenos Aires daily and we saw that we could bring together past and present in this symbol," says Andrew Pedreros.
As this is almost an emblem of the ports, shipping companies such as TPS and SITRANS recontextualizar are enthusiastic with this object, which is part of their daily work. That's why financed half of the festival and give their support to achieve, and put the containers move between the hills of Valparaiso. How are you?
