Wie arbeiten Journalisten? News aktuell geht diesem Thema in einer Umfrage nach. Sandra Liebich aka [@dieliebich] (http://twitter.com/dieliebich) berichtet darüber im News Aktuell Blog. Dabei erregt ein Abschnitt besonders meine Aufmerksamkeit:
Wo recherchieren Journalisten? Welcher Kanal ist der richtige für Presseinformationen?
Die Antwort: Der Mix macht’s! Je nach Gusto und Möglichkeit des Redakteurs recherchiert er oder sie in Suchmaschinen, schaut was per E-Mail rein kommt, nutzt das Redaktionssystem, Nachrichtenagenturen oder RSS. Und auch soziale Netzwerke sind inzwischen zum Recherchetool geworden.
[ [Was Journalisten wollen – Ergebnisse unserer Umfrage „Recherche 2012 – Journalismus, PR und multimediale Inhalte“ — news aktuell blog] (http://www.newsaktuell.de/blog/2012/02/15/was-journalisten-wollen-–-ergebnisse-unserer-umfrage-„recherche-2012-–-journalismus-pr-und-multimediale-inhalte“/) ]
Dann schaue ich mir die Grafik dazu an (BTW gibt es Grafiken ohne Info?) und bin verwirrt. Im Rahmen von Enterprise 2.0 und Social Business treffe ich immer wieder auf Beispiele und Aussagen, dass dadurch Wissensarbeiter besser arbeiten könnten und die Erzeugung und Verbreitung von Wissen gefördert würden. Wer primär in seiner Emailbox arbeite und recherchiere, der stünde zunehmend auf abgeschlagenem Felde.
Und Journalisten, die Wissensarbeiter per se? Sie nutzen laut News aktuell primär und tagtäglich… Email! Sind Journalisten zur Kollaboration unfähig? Wissen ist Macht? Alles “mein Schaaaaaaatz!”?
Aber dann, doch, sollen sie in sozialen Netzwerken recherchieren. Doch in der Grafik taucht diese Information nicht auf. Was machen Journalisten dann also nur in sozialen Netzwerken! Immer noch Farmville spielen?
Achso, die Grafik bezieht sich auf die tägliche Nutzung, der Text zu sozialen Netzwerken bezieht sich auf die wöchentliche Nutzung. Farmville also nur am Wochenende?

Frank Hamm, verwirrt aber gewaschen
Ich merke es leider viel zu selten. Aber es stimmt: Ich schreie mit, schreie dagegen und schreie dafür vor lauter Engagement. Ich merke es eher bei anderen als bei mir.
Diesmal habe ich - zumindest einmal - nicht mitgeschrien. Weder dagegen, weder dafür. Es fiel und fällt mir schwer. Anderen fällt es gar nicht schwer. Das gefällt mir nicht. Diesmal bin ich Klugscheißer und sage:
“Ich bin ganz ruhig und entspannt. Ich versuche ihn auf mich wirken zu lassen. Ich schreie nicht sofort los.”
Ich will auch nicht sofort wissen, was er davon oder davon hält, oder welchen Satz er da oder dort und dann mal gesagt hat. Ich fange auch nicht sofort eine Liste mit Links zu irgendwelchen Artikel an, um ihm eine falsche Geisteshaltung nachzuweisen, weil andere etwas geschrieben haben.
Lasst mir einfach mal ein bisschen Hoffnung und ihm eine Chance. Keilt nicht sofort los. Diesmal schaffe ich das. Bestimmt. Versucht es auch einfach einmal.
P.S. Auch einer davor hatte Mut, irgendwie zumindest. Vielleicht auch war er nur unvorsichtig oder naiv. Aber da haben sofort alle losgeschrien. Ich wohl auch. Doch ich habe die Jahre seit 2006 zuvor nicht losgeschrien, in denen das im Weißbuch der Bundesregierung stand, worüber er dann sprach. Und dann soll er ja nur repräsentieren, aber im richtigen Augenblick er soll auch das Richtige sagen und tun. Oder schweigen.
Es ist schwierig zu wissen, wann man schreien soll und wann nicht. Heute habe ich nicht geschrien, und ich bin froh darüber.

Christian Wulff trat heute um 11:00 Uhr mit sofortiger Wirkung vom Amt des Bundespräsidenten zurück. Doch noch Stunden später zeigt der Terminkalender weitere Termine im Februar beispielsweise zur Eröffnung des Erweiterungsbaus des Städel Museums in Frankfurt am Main.
Aufkommende Gerüchte sorgen für Verunsicherungen in der Bevölkerung ob einer möglichen Amtsanmaßung durch Christian Wulff.

[ Warum braucht man eine Social Media Strategie? ]
Natascha Ljubic greift eine Grundsatzfrage auf. Warum eine Grundsatzfrage? Immer noch agieren viele Unternehmen, d.h. ihre Vertreter, in den Social Media nach der Methode. Was für Public Relations und Marketing insgesamt seit Jahren selbstverständlich ist (oder sein sollte…), das ignorieren immer noch viele: Eine Strategie. Und davor die Analyse (z.B. SWOT).

CityCamp Honolulu (by hawaii). Looks like a real unconference with a vibrant atmosphere.
Scenes from the first CityCamp Honolulu. CityCamp is unconference focused on innovation for municipal governments and community organizations, and they have been held in 19 other cities around the world. The Honolulu event drew nearly 150 people, including both city and state government officials and employees, as well as local programmers, designers, artists, and activists. CityCamp Honolulu served as a prelude to next year’s Code For America engagement, and the next event will be a “hackathon” in January to further develop the ideas we’ve explored.

All credit goes to them.

All in all I tried to keep the looks of the material as original as possible,
avoided adjusting the colors and the like, since in my opinion the original

A rogue with an eye for salvage - and the ladies - Ray: A Life Underwater is an affectionate portrait of one man's deep sea diving career, told through his extraordinary collection of marine artefacts.
Like a modern-day pirate, 75-year-old Ray Ives has been scouring the seabed for treasure his whole life.
The former commercial diver has plundered the deep for over fifty years, bringing to the surface anything that glittered -- even gold.
In a shipping container near the water, Ray tends his museum of cannon, bottles, bells, swords, portholes and diving gear.
He even still takes to the water in a 1900s diving suit.
Ray can be found most days at his museum at Yacht Haven Quay, Plymouth.

HOW TO MAKE A FOREST FROM A PATCH OF GRASS
My daughter created a tiny nature reserve in our garden to save the wildlife in the grass from the lawn mower.
We stopped to talk about it, and then spent the afternoon looking for wildlife in the grass.
What she found really amazed me: so many little creatures in a tiny patch of grass.
Wildlife often seems remote and disconnected from our day-to-day lives, and our impact on the environment as individuals seems minimal.
But my daughter's idea - that an individual can save a tiny patch of the earth suddenly changed the way I think, and inspired me to do something.
So, I'm sending out this thought in the hope that others may be inspired to appreciate the diversity of life on earth (even the slugs and snails) and take positive action to protect it.
I hope this inspires you too.
As environmentalist David Orr wrote: "When we heal the earth, we heal ourselves."
Maybe together we can save an entire forest...starting with a tiny patch of grass?

2011: A Space Adventure
A short film by Simon Mesnard (2011)
Personal project
Music by Karreo (karreo.com)
- Composition & SFX : Stelian Derenne
- Direction : Mathieu Legros
* 3dsmax 2009 + vray 1.5 + after effects cs3
* made in 4-5 weeks approx. (off sound)
"A cosmonaut was sent to repair an old satellite. He just finished his mission when..."
This is not a sequel to 2001 : A Space Odyssey but some kind of tribute. The story of Kubrick's movie was supposed to take place exactly ten years ago. 2001 to 2011, I thought it was a good date to make something, even if it has no obvious relation with the original story.
If you are curious and want more informations, you can read this short online presentation, with some clues to understand the narration :

Ceci n'est pas une suite a 2001 : L'Odyssee de l'Espace mais une sorte d'hommage. L'histoire de l'oeuvre de Kubrick etait supposee avoir lieu il y a exactement dix ans cette année. 2001 a 2011, j'ai pense que c'etait une bonne date pour marquer le coup, meme si ma creation n'a finalement rien a voir avec l'histoire du film.

'The Last Train' is an animated short movie that was made as part of The Animation Hub, a collaboration between staff and students of the Irish School of Animation (ISA) at Ballyfermot College of Further Education (BCFE), staff and students of Trinity College’s Graphics, Vision and Visualisation Group (GV2) and the recently established animation studio Giant Creative (giant.ie), set up by BCFE graduates.
The Animation Hub, which received support from the Irish Film Board and Science Foundation Ireland, ran for 3 months over the summer in 2011 and involved Giant Creative working with animation and computer science students to create a one minute animated short fusing motion capture techniques with naturalistic 3D character animation.

10 minute short film
A British fighter pilot pursues the german ace that shot down his friend across sky and country... with murder in mind. But he discovers it's not so easy to kill a man when you have to look them in the eye
This was funded by an Irish Film Board scheme called 'Short Cuts' and was shot in November 2007. The Budget was €70K, and was used entirely on the live action components of the film - leaving a grand total of ZERO for visual effects!
I completed all the visual effects shots, over 120 in total, entirely by myself. Dave Head modelled the aircraft (and truck), but I textured, lit, animated and composited the shots over a six month period in 2008.

Pursue of synthetic utopia.
Hi,
This is a personal project created as a final graduation work at my art gymnasium. The basic idea was to tell a simple story about the emptiness of human mind and the slavery of our own system which makes us artificial, though sometimes by sacrificing ourselves for simple and ordinary things we can make them magnificent. Hope you like it.

This was filmed during August 2011. This is my interpretation of the fjord landscape in western Norway. Having spent countless days here, I really enjoy even the smallest parts of this landscape. Like hidden streams or dwarfish waterfalls outside of the beaten track that offer a great deal of solitude.
This movie was editing "on the road" and uploaded over 3G network from southeast asia. I have decided to spend the next two years creating a 60min blu-ray/dvd. As a landscape photographer, I have visited some really amazing places over the years, and now I will be revisiting many of them for this movie. It is a full-on project, and as a result I have now sold my apartment, print-studio, car and other belongings.
I thought Beethoven´s Moonlight Sonata would be appropriate, and asked my friend Marika Takeuchi if she could record it in a studio. She made a fantastic version which I love very much. Thank you!

These are a few of my photographs using Intentional Camera Movement to capture the red torch ginger flower in a new, modern, and previously unseen way. Here in Hawaii you see these flowers everywhere, but they have revealed their soul in these images. It literally took my breath away the day I shot these - from our garden in the back yard.
My partner Roxanne Darling made this video to share the images and a hint of the mood they create in a room. The music is by Eric Lee, a Hawaiian musician. Full credits in this short, serene video. (ericleehawaii.com)

This is the perfect opportunity for a Carl Sagan quote:
"Somewhere, something incredible is waiting to be known."

Although I am from London, I have in-laws in Lisbon and took the opportunity to join Philip Bloom's Lisbon workshop. It was extremely interesting and after watching so many videos of Philip's it was easy to think I knew him already. A very likeable and friendly guy with a ton of useful knowledge.
Here are some short timelapse I took at the meet up on the 5th June, facing a replica of the San Francisco bridge, in Lisbon-Portugal.
I teach at Uni so asked Philip if he would give my students a quick tip...these were all his words!

This was filmed between 4th and 11th April 2011. I had the pleasure of visiting El Teide.
Spain´s highest mountain @(3718m) is one of the best places in the world to photograph the stars and is also the location of Teide Observatories, considered to be one of the world´s best observatories.
The goal was to capture the beautiful Milky Way galaxy along with one of the most amazing mountains I know El Teide. I have to say this was one of the most exhausting trips I have done. There was a lot of hiking at high altitudes and probably less than 10 hours of sleep in total for the whole week. Having been here 10-11 times before I had a long list of must-see locations I wanted to capture for this movie, but I am still not 100% used to carrying around so much gear required for time-lapse movies.
A large sandstorm hit the Sahara Desert on the 9th April (bit.ly/g3tsDW) and at approx 3am in the night the sandstorm hit me, making it nearly impossible to see the sky with my own eyes.
Interestingly enough my camera was set for a 5 hour sequence of the milky way during this time and I was sure my whole scene was ruined. To my surprise, my camera had managed to capture the sandstorm which was backlit by Grand Canary Island making it look like golden clouds. The Milky Way was shining through the clouds, making the stars sparkle in an interesting way. So if you ever wondered how the Milky Way would look through a Sahara sandstorm, look at 00:32.

This was filmed between 29th April and 10th May 2011 in the Arctic, on
the archipelago Lofoten in Norway.
My favorite natural phenomenon is one I do not even know the name of, even after talking to meteorologists and astrophysicists I am none the wiser.What I am talking about I have decided to call The Arctic Light and it is a natural phenomenon occurring 2-4 weeks before you can see the Midnight Sun.
The Sunset and Sunrise are connected in one magnificent show of color and light lasting from 8 to 12 hours. The sun is barely going below the horizon before coming up again. This is the most colorful light that I know, and the main reason I have been going up there for the last 4 years, at the exact
same time of year, to photograph. Based on previous experience, I knew this was going to be a very
difficult trip. Having lost a couple of cameras and some other equipment up there before, it was crucial to bring an extra set of everything. I also
made sure I had plenty of time in case something went wrong.
If you can imagine roping down mountain cliffs, or jumping around on slippery rocks covered in seaweed with 2 tripods, a rail, a controller,
camera, lenses, filters and rigging for 4-5 hour long sequences at a time, and then
having to calculate the rise and fall of the tides in order to capture the essence - it all proved bit of a challenge.
And almost as if planned, the trip would turn out to become very
difficult indeed. I had numerous setbacks including: airline lost my
luggage, struggling to swim ashore after falling into the Arctic sea: twice, breaking lenses, filters, tripod, computer, losing the whole dolly rig and controller into the sea, and even falling off a rather tall rock and ending
up in the hospital. As much as I wanted to give up, the best way Out is
always “Through”. I am glad I stuck it through though because there were some amazing sunrises waiting. At 1:06 you see a single scene from day to night to day which is from 9pm to 7am. Think about that for a minute.. 10 hours with light like that.
I asked the very talented Marika Takeuchi to specifically compose and
perform a song for this movie, and what she came up with is absolutely remarkable. Thank you very much Marika!
