Klimakonferenzen im Wandel der Zeit
Anlässlich der kommenden UN-Klimakonferenz in Kopenhagen 2009, hier (mal wieder) ein schöner Beitrag von Extra3:
Wundert sich eigentlich noch jemand? Was wohl das Fazit des diesjährigen Gipfels sein wird?
Cheat Neutral
Helping you because you can’t help yourself
Cheatneutral is about offsetting infidelity. We’re the only people doing it, and Cheatneutral is a joke.
Carbon offsetting is about paying for the right to carry on emitting carbon. The Carbon offset industry sold £60 million of offsets last year, and is rapidly growing. Carbon offsetting is also a joke.
Loyal and faithful? Are you a cheater? What is cheat offsetting? Find the answers at www.cheatneutral.com
Haha! :D
Hagen Rether und die Volvo Werbung
Ich würde ja sooo gerne mal in einer cheesy Hotelbar sitzen und anstelle des üblichen, abgehalfterten Pianisten, der samstags auch gerne mal seine rollende Disco auspackt und ansich tolle Disco Hits spielt (nur vor dem falschen, gelangweiltem Vertreterpublikum), sitzt Hagen Rether da!
Nunja – “wir sind, wie wir sind.”
Tja.
Guten Abend, gute Nacht.
Danke, Zoran.
Krise? Welche Krise?
Oh je oh je – die Welt geht wieder mal unter! 2008 war ja nur das Jahr zwischen den Jahren, erst 2009 ist das Krisenanfangsjahr. Denn bald nach Ausbruch der Weltfinanzkrise verständigte man sich bereits darauf, dass deren wahres Ausmaß erst 2009 deutlich werde. Bundeskanzlerin Merkel hat 2009 offiziell zum “Jahr der schlechten Nachrichten” ernannt. Ein ehrgeiziger Anspruch, der allerdings erst einzulösen ist.
Aber das “Krisotainment” (Matthias Horx) ist schon mal die erste Boomindustrie der Gegenwart. Da das menschliche Hirn glücklicherweise von der Evolution darauf ausgerichtet ist, in die Zukunft zu schauen und nachzudenken, haben wir genau 75 gute Gründe aufgeführt, warum man auch dem gerade begonnenen Jahr mit Optimismus entgegenblicken kann.
Überhaupt: Krise? Welche Krise?
2009 – Das Jahr der Taten. Daumen hoch! :D
Skype Laughter Chain
Laughter is a universal language!
It’s no accident that LOL (Laugh Out Loud) is one of the most popular acronyms on the web – we all love to communicate, to share and feel part of a community. Laughter brings us closer together – it’s a language we all understand and everyone loves a good laugh.
Gniiiihihihihihihhhahahahahahahaha…mwwuuuhuhuhuuuuu… ;D
Nothing For Ungood
In Germany you can write off about $0.45 for every half mile you drive over 12 miles in your daily commute from your taxes. Germany pays you to cause congestion. Every radio station in Germany announces the success of their program each morning by listing how many kilometers long the Stau is on each street.
Hahahahaha! Filed under: Ein bisschen Spaß muss sein! chrchrchr…

Have a Fake!
“A Fake is A Fake” Is a new communication/media-criticism ongoing art-project from Les Liens Invisibles. It’s a free service where you can run a blog with ready-made themes that are clones of popular CI’s like Financial Times, White House or the Bundeskanzlerin design. “Get a free Account, choose a mask, start faking!”
“You were told that a new democracy of communication was possible, that the lies of corporate media were to disappear and that your voice was going to play an active role in the formation of public discourse.
You were deluded into believing that even the world, this world, would become a better place through detailed diffusion of low-cost technologies, through the birth of telematic networks and the establishment of blogs and social networks.
While the watered-down fantasies that came with the rise of web 2.0 are being dissolved, a bitter consciousness remains: that communication itself, after all, is an illusion. That information, however probable it may seem, is still a fiction and that a fake, in the end, is only a fake. Anyway.”
Looks like great fun and i allways loved the idea of deconstructing corporates by simply faking their look. “A Fake is A Fake” takes the primary punk method a step further into our 2008 digital era. Nice!
