26/10/2019

Obraz
In the last theme issue of „Rzeczpospolita. Plus Minus”, in Artur Bartkiewicz’s article there is my statement about the theme issue ""Czy da się poprawić Internet”?" [Is it possible to improve Internet?].

I talked about how the internet has recently measurably modified our freedom and equality, both in the context of existing social exclusion and the possibility of expressing global opposition.​

“Magica Tenebrae" (Polish title "Magiczny rytuał"): substantive and linguistic editing of the comics gamebook (or paragraph comics)

25/7/2019

Obraz
I had a pleasure again to be responsible for substantive and linguistic editing of the comics gamebook (or paragraph comics). a fantasy manga with a dark atmosphere:  “Magica Tenebrae" (Polish title: "Magiczny rytuał") by Manuro (scenario) and Ottami (illustrator).

This is the next volume in „Komiks, w którym bohaterem jesteś ty” [Comic book, in which you're the Hero], the series published by FoxyGames.

The previous volume, which I worked on, was the comics gamebook (or paragraph comics) in western convention: “Your Town”.

The essence of comic gamebooks is the fact, that the reader reads and plays at the same time, because (s)he decides about the main character's action. Depending on the player's choices, there are several endings possible, so the paragraph comics can be read many times.
More about I wrote here.

Substantive and linguistic editing of the comics gamebook (or paragraph comics): “Your Town”

I have not updated the website for a long time, and it has happened so much! As Wocial-Tuszyńska art collective we had a solo show in Warsaw, which has just finished.

I had a pleasure to be responsible for substantive and linguistic editing of the comics gamebook (or paragraph comics) in western convention: “Your Town”.
​
This is the next volume in „Komiks, w którym bohaterem jesteś ty” [Comic book, in which you're the Hero], the series published by FoxyGames.

Gamebooks sometimes called “choose your own adventure books” or CYOA after the series “Choose Your Own Adventure” have been known since the 1960s, but comics gamebook is something new on the Polish market, although the mechanics is the same in both products.
The reader reads and plays at the same time, because (s)he decides about the main character's action and by moving between the numbered panels affects the story. Depending on the player's choices, there are several endings possible, so the paragraph comics can be read many times.

The comics gamebook – as an entertainment – combines my two research fields: comics and narration.

I was a guest of the program "O wszystkim z kulturą", Program 2 Polskiego Radia

Today I had the pleasure to take part in the discussion in the program “O wszystkim z kulturą” [About Everything with Culture] by Michał Szułdrzyński. The second guest was Paweł Wieczorek and we talked about autobranding – the art of building and selling the image online and influencer marketing.
 
We considered how to create a personal brand in social media and how to be a cohesive influencer. I noted how the influencer differs from the opinion leader and why these are not the same concepts.
​
I also mentioned the recent experiment by Mediakix,  a dedicated influencer marketing agency, which had revealed how simple it is to create a fake “influencer's” accounts on Instagram and collect thousands of followers and simulate engagement. 
I always emphasize the role of honesty and authenticity as a key condition in engaging followers in social media. Although on the other hand, in the world where Lil Miquela and the model Shudu have 1,5 million and 150, 000 followers and as digital avatars, totally fictional characters, they promote Dior or Diesel, above issues do not seem to matter. 
There is already available a podcast, I cordially invite you to listen.

Chairing the meeting during opening the exhibition by Bartosz Maciejewski

On 2nd October, in open a few days earlier Praga Koneser Centre, as part of “London Outsider” vernissage, the exhibition of London photography, I had the pleasure of chairing a short meeting with its author, Bartosz Maciejewski.

During the vernissage, we talked about his style, characteristic of him combining photography with painting and his passion for big-city as the main theme of his photography. I shared also my observations that Maciejewski in his works sometimes approaches to metaphysical art, close to "Melancholy and Mystery of a Street" by Giorgio de Chirico or to the aesthetics of the painter of a street - Marek Włodarski and I am referring, for example, to the painting “Composition with two cyclists”.

More about art at my blog Wernisażeria, the first lifestyle blog about art & vernissages, becuase culture and art are the way of life, not fashion. I write extensive feuilletons about vernissages: subjective, substantive, full of surprising digressions and specific humor texts on exhibitions, art, culture, history and literature.

My statement on the technology and new media in the last weekend edition of “Rzeczpospolita”

In the last theme issue of „Rzeczpospolita. Plus Minus”, in Artur Bartkiewicz’s article there is my statement about the theme issue:  Czy technologie ogłupiają nam dzieci?” [Do technologies stupefy our children?​]  
 
The starting point was a ban on mobile phones use at schools introduced in France.

I dealt with myths about new media and I explained why technology itself is not bad: it is important to be
 able to navigate in a digital and native environment.

I also talked about improving visual-spatial skills, changes in the perception of the world and socialization, learning new technologies as a part of parenthood and I gave tips on how to use the Internet safely and implement children in new media.

​​I also talked about visual literacy, mistakes in communications by pictures and new way of telling the story, narration through #hashtags, so characteristic for the Generation Z and communication, among others, via Instagram.
​
Unfortunately, the whole podcast is not available on TVN 24 BiS website and it is a pity, because there was a really interesting discussion.
Today I had a pleasure to be a guest of the program “Świat” [World] by Adam Wojda in TVN 24 BiS.

During almost 90 minutes together with Przemysław  Truściński, Edgar Bąk, Łukasz Radwan and Justyna Czerniakowska we were talking about visual communication, comics, posters, advertisement and other visual forms and associated with changes in perception of the written word.

My statement on the current trend on the job market caused by representatives of Millennials and post-Millennials in the last weekend edition of “Rzeczpospolita”

In the last theme issue of „Rzeczpospolita. Plus Minus”, in Artur Bartkiewicz’s article „Milenialsi nie chcą już cyrografów”  [Millenials don't want pacts anymore] I talked about how representatives of Millennials and post-Millennials  change the job market and corporate approach to work with them.

I also talked about what the Generation Z expects, of which most representatives will decide to start their own business and I analyzed why workshops, courses or CSR policy (corporate social responsibility) in this case are much more effective than distant retirement plans.

In other words: what it means for corporations that for workers entering the market passion and understanding are more important than an employment contract for an indefinite period.
