Digitalism…
aprilie 14, 2008… is a German electro duo, founded in 2004 in Hamburg, Germany, consisting of Jens “Jence” Moelle and İsmail “Isi” Tüfekçi. They are signed to French label Kitsuné Music, and have released four singles to date: “Idealistic“, “Zdarlight“, “Jupiter Room“, and “Pogo“. Jens likens Digitalism’s songs to simple chapters in a complex novel about social interaction and attraction, with distorted bass lines and thumping rhythms comprising the punctuation.
Digitalism has remixed tracks for Tom Vek, The Futureheads, Daft Punk, Tiga, Klaxons, White Stripes, Monk, Depeche Mode, Cut Copy and many others, including a re-edit of “Fire in Cairo” by The Cure (entitled “Digitalism in Cairo“). Their tracks and remixes are played by DJs such as Erol Alkan, Soulwax, Boys Noize and Justice, among others.

martie 28, 2008Journalist Nicky Taylor travels to Amsterdam to investigate the growing debate about the legal classification of cannabis. While there she helps out in a coffee shop that sells the drug, and discovers first hand what the effects of cannabis are on everyday life. Back in the UK Nicky finds out about the genetically modified cannabis skunk, cheap and increasingly sold on the streets. The programme asks whether the drug can make you mad, if it is worse than alcohol and if it is stronger than it used to be. Nicky takes part in a month-long medical trial to find out.
Pentru cei care nu cunosc limba engleza sau o cunosc doar din vedere este vorba despre un documentar produs de BBC in care o jurnalista participa timp de o luna la un experiment care consta in consumul zilnic de canabis/hash, pentru a stabili daca intradevar consumul acestui drog (care a fost de curand, in Anglia, retrogradat pe scala celor mai periculoase droguri de la B-class la C-class) poate produce tulburari psihice si daca, in ziua de azi, calitatea lui este echivalenta cu cea a drogului de acum 20 de ani!

my 2 cents…documentarul este unul foarte bun, nu este nici pro nici contra ci lasa loc pentru decizii personale, olandezii sunt…olandezi, iar pisica care o arde in cafeneaua din Amsterdam unde are loc filmarea e chilliana rau de tot! \trickstar/
