Την Παραμονή των Χριστουγέννων, η Πλατεία Κοτζιά φιλοξένησε τo υπερθέαμα «Η Νύχτα των Ευχών». Εκεί, μικροί και μεγάλοι «φώτισαν» την πόλη με τις ευχές τους, αφήνοντας από ένα φαναράκι στον ουρανό! Αμέσως μετά, ένα εντυπωσιακό 3D projection mapping show, ειδικά σχεδιασμένο από το Athens Digital Arts Festival, «στόλισε» με υπέροχες εικόνες το δημαρχιακό μέγαρο, προσδίδοντας μια ξεχωριστή διάσταση στην όψη του εμβληματικού κτιρίου. Εντυπωσιακοί φωτισμοί, πολυδιάστατες γεωμετρίες που αναδεικνύουν την αρχιτεκτονική του και φαντασμαγορικά μοτίβα συνέθεσαν το ιδανικό σκηνικό για την πιο φωτεινή νύχτα των Χριστουγέννων στην Αθήνα.

Until You Become The King Of Fools ( A documentary about the Greek Punk scene w / English Subs )
The first full-length documentary film about the Greek punk scene from the late 1970s until today.
The documentary presents the history, the origin and the development of a subculture in a country that has experienced the transition from a military junta to European democracy. It describes the reaction of the young people at the time, who tried to express their voice in a turbulent and uncertain socio-political situation.
It involves representatives of different generations (those born in the 1960s, 1970s, 1980s and the children of the digital era), who tell the story of their personal paths in the context of music and their rebellion through it.
The documentary is entitled Until you become the king of fools. It may sound contradictory, but it contains within itself the essence of the development of the punk scene. The music that arises from the pure need to oppose the system, to express genuine disagreement with the established routines, today is just as commercialized as ‘stadium rock’ and pop culture.
The shooting of the film lasted two years - The crew of seven people worked tirelessly to gather information from all possible sources. They interviewed more than 80 people, processed over 40 hours of operational material and they have objectively presented the struggle of punk in the country of Zorbas.
( Review Article - Victoria Mindova )
Περισσότερα από τριάντα χρόνια έχουν περάσει από την στιγμή που το ανατρεπτικό μουσικό κίνημα έφτασε στην Ελλάδα γεμάτο αστική οργή, παραμάνες, καρφιά και μαλλιά που με μια χούφτα ζελέ κατέρριπταν τους νόμους της βαρύτητας.
Το ντοκιμαντέρ «Μέχρι να Γίνεις ο Βασιλιάς των Ηλιθίων» ζουμάρει στην διαδρομή του πανκ στη χώρα μας, ξεκινώντας από τα παρθενικά του βήματα τη δεκαετία του ‘80.
Είναι ένα ντοκιμαντέρ μεγάλου μήκους για την έξαρση της πάνκ ιδεολογίας και μουσικής σαν κοινωνικό πολιτικό φαινόμενο.
Μέλη συγκροτημάτων που έγραψαν τη δική τους ιστορία στην ελληνική πανκ σκηνή όπως Deus Ex Machina, Αδιέξοδο, Ναυτία, Ex Humans, Αντίδραση, Panx Romana, Stress,και Αρνητική Στάση εμφανίζονται στην ταινία, μιλώντας για την ελληνική βερσιόν του αντισυμβατικού μουσικού ρεύματος.

Pearl River Delta Growth
The Pearl River Delta, the World’s Largest Urban Area. Images by Nasa.
Even for a nation known for eye-popping rates of urbanization, what has happened along China’s Pearl River Delta over the past few decades is extraordinary. In 1988, an interlacing network of rivers and streams flowed through fertile alluvial soils full of rice paddies, wheat fields, mulberry orchards, and fish ponds. At that time, the region was mostly rural, with a population of roughly 10 million people scattered between several medium-sized cities, including Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Foshan, and Dongguan. Nearly three decades later, these cities have grown so rapidly that they have merged into an interconnected megalopolis with a population (42 million).
The satellite images illustrate the dramatic growth. The first image was acquired by the Thematic Mapper on Landsat 5 on November 24, 1988; the second image was acquired by the Operational Land Imager on Landsat 8 on November 16, 2014.
➖
If taken as one entity, the Pearl River Delta region has overtaken Tokyo as the world’s largest urban area—by size and population—according to an analysis of satellite and demographic data published by the World Bank. Between 2000 and 2010, the Pearl River Delta’s urban spaces—defined as areas where the built environment covered more than 50 percent of the landscape in a given pixel—had expanded from 4,500 square kilometers to 7,000 square kilometers. (In 2010, Tokyo had a population of about 32 million people and covered about 5,600 square kilometers.)
