The top art auction houses had a carefree and comfortable time of it for most of the first couple of centuries of their existence, but lately they have been hustling to adjust to a radical transformation of their industry. New digital technology and new customers with new attitudes in new places, along with new competition from deft and nimble upstarts eager to cater to them, have forced the dominant companies, Sotheby's and Christie's, to develop new ways to do business.
They are responding to the challenge by throwing their money and names around, buying or forming looser affiliations with rivals that understand the shifting realities of the marketplace, including a collector base increasingly inclined to buy art online and on the go, better than they do because the arrivistes helped create those realities.
"Businesses need to evolve, and although the auction process has been around close to forever, the technology changes things; the way the market works changes things, and so does the global nature of the market," said Suzanne Gyorgy, global head of art advisory and finance at Citi Private Bank, a subsidiary of Citigroup.
As with many businesses, the Internet presents the greatest threat to the established order in the art market and the greatest opportunity, too. Online art sales in 2014 reached 3.3 billion euros, or about $3.6 billion, according to the latest edition of the European Fine Art Foundation annual report. That represents about 6 percent of the global market in art and antiques and a 32 percent increase from 2013.
Global auction sales totaled €24.6 billion in 2014, the report said. That was 48 percent of the market, but it marked just a 9.3 percent gain on the year before and was barely over the €24 billion recorded in 2007, the previous high-water mark.
Tefaf and other organizations that monitor the market, such as Hiscox, an insurance company that specializes in art, among other niches, foresee growth of about 25 percent a year in online sales for the rest of the decade.
To grab a piece of the action, the auction industry leaders have expanded vigorously online. Christie's, in 2011, set up an online-only auction platform that held 79 sales in 2015, said Jennifer Ferguson, a company spokeswoman. Last year Christie's bought Collectrium, a digital art collection management service.
"We have made important hires to support a new marketing and content strategy in both print and digital across all our platforms, as well as strategic digital acquisitions," Ms. Ferguson said. "None of this happened in just the last 12 months, but has been happening over the last five years."
Sotheby's raised its profile online last year when it began streaming its auctions live on eBay, the all-purpose auction website.
"We want to create more channels and more ways for our collectors to be able to engage in and buy things that they love," said David Goodman, Sotheby's executive vice president for digital development and marketing.
Perhaps more important, arrangements such as this give the company access to customers they might not have had otherwise.
"We're able to see a different group of people from what we would normally have in the consignment auction process," Mr. Goodman said. "It's a way to expand our distribution and our brand and introduce new people to the world of collecting. We're excited about the momentum we're seeing in the online space."
The marketplace is expanding in the real world, too, and auction firms are taking varied steps to cater to new buyers. Sotheby's recently bought Art Agency Partners, which provides collectors with advice on art, legal and investment matters. The acquisition is expected to help Sotheby's expand and enhance its private sales, an activity that the industry sees as a more lucrative way to sell art than the traditional auction business.
Among the moves that Ms. Ferguson highlighted at Christie's is the opening of offices in Shanghai and in Mumbai, India, part of an effort that "has helped nurture new growth across both the emerging collector and established collector sectors."
The collectors that have emerged from places like China and India have become a critical segment of the global art market. They have been sources of tremendous growth for auction houses, but also sources of volatility and consternation.
China accounted for 27.3 percent of global art transactions in 2014, according to a Citigroup report, compared with just 0.2 percent in 2000. But after years of surging growth, the Chinese art market, like its economy and stock market, has been slumping lately.
Auction sales of Chinese contemporary art dropped 41 percent last year, according to a report by ArtTactic, a London firm that analyzes the art market. The report noted that sales in other Asian markets took up some of the slack, rising 14 percent in India, for instance, and 28 percent in Southeast Asia.
In a survey of industry experts by ArtTactic, 19 percent more respondents said they expected the Chinese art market to shrink this year than to expand, worse than for any market except Russia. India was considered to have the best prospects, with a net 48 percent positive on the market. The American and European markets combined had a 16 percent net favorable assessment.
The possibility that Chinese art sales may be leveling off leads Benjamin R. Mandel, global strategist for multi-asset solutions at J.P. Morgan Asset Management, to warn that the next 15 years for the global art market may not be as fruitful as the last 15. He is also concerned that the trend toward ever more extravagant prices for a handful of works amid so-so growth elsewhere is bound to reverse.
"China's extraordinary period of catch-up growth has largely played out, while the inequality in auction prices may reach some natural limit," Mr. Mandel wrote in a recent report. "As a result, the slowing of these factors could subtract up to a third from the annual growth of the global market; that is, global growth would be on the order of 9 percent, rather than 13 percent."
Whether or not the auction houses are taking such forecasts to heart, they are easing back on the splashy evening sales that they're best known for by combining different genres of art, such as Impressionism and Postwar Contemporary, and bunching sales together on the calendar. They present the moves as a means of catering to clients with eclectic tastes, but they also may reduce costs.
The more traditional competition that auction houses face comes from brick-and-mortar galleries, and they are adapting and contributing to the evolution of the market, too. Alessia Zorloni, adjunct professor in art markets at Libera Università di Lingue e Comunicazione IULM, in Milan, observed a trend among galleries to abandon the middle ground.
"There are two choices for dealers today, either to run a lightweight, cost-effective operation that supports young artists or adopt the mega-gallery model," she said. "The high-end art market is controlled by a few dozen operators and characterized by a small number of large and powerful galleries, often organized as real commercial companies with a wide network of connections with other galleries, and in the most important cases, with branches in other cities."
These galleries trade on the value of their brands and reputations, Ms. Zorloni said, just as the auction houses do. These are important aspects of any business but especially in one like art where the value of the main product is hard to calculate and based on subjective criteria. That's why the auction industry faces little threat at the top end from online entities, in her view.
"If you think about this feature of the art market, there will never be competition with websites, even mainstream ones like Amazon and eBay," she said. "They are simply different market segments appealing to different customers. The power of auction house brands will remain strong. Not only do auction houses have access to first-class works, but obviously they also have access to the clientele that no one dealer can compete with."
As time goes on, auction companies may embrace the distinctions between market segments even further: providing a premium service for high-end collectors centered on a few evening sales while using extensive online abilities to grant greater access to the market, with fewer frills, to a growing number of customers with thinner wallets.
"The number of buyers in the art market has increased so dramatically in the last five years," said Ms. Gyorgy, of Citi Private Bank. "Developing an online presence is really smart." As for the marquee sales, "people really like the auction experience," she said, adding, "It's some of the best theater in town, but it's expensive theater to put on."

ERA drives the MLA message into Home Improvement channels
Date: 19/03/15
Over the last four weeks over 70 members of the MLA have taken part in focus groups carried out by our MLA Expo partner ERA. The purpose of the focus groups was to enable ERA to develop the MLA/ERA Approved Partner scheme which is being launched this year ahead of the Expo.
ERA group marketing director Will Butler explains the backdrop to this initiative: "we've set out our commitment to the MLA quite clearly in terms of our sponsorship of the Expo but our support runs far deeper than the Expo alone. We have a very firm commitment to get ERA back into Britain's homes and to do this we wanted to partner with professional members of MLA that share our love of this industry, its heritage and values.
"The feedback from the focus groups has been essential in terms of us shaping a partnership programme that meets the needs of MLA approved company members both in terms of product suitability and indeed, the appetite towards an increased number of home security surveys. As a result we are now in the final stages of developing a robust partnership programme that will be backed by a strong social media presence and consumer campaign across leading home improvement magazines.
As part of this initiative ERA commissioned consumer research amongst 1000 home improvers to better understand attitudes towards improved home security. Will talks us through the findings: "we really wanted to gauge consumer attitudes towards improving home security – but critically we wanted to understand whether people see this is a DIY job or a do-it-for-me job. Over three quarters (86%) of respondents would improve the security of their home and almost 70% said they would be more likely to upgrade their locks if they could find a reliable, accredited and affordable service. This unbiased data has really helped to shape our thinking and further strengthens our commitment to supporting the MLA. In reality, a totally secure home can only be delivered by a qualified and experienced locksmith with the knowledge and capability to identify vulnerable points around the home and provide solutions for the homeowner – this message will underpin our launch campaign later this year."

Soundscapes (Alja Petric) is an upgrade of the project Sound of the moment in which the artist creates musical ambients that discourages the listeners attention from its famous musical constructs in order to experience those two most basic building blocks from which the music as such is being created: out of "sound" and "silence".
By using diverse acoustic "sounds" and genuine human "singing", she creates melodic patterns that follow the established concept and builds them with intuitive melodies that arise in a spontaneous moment. The acoustic landscapes explore the subtle world of sound that whispers in nature as well as in the interior of the human soul.

So after the riveting first post that hooked you to Bosh with Elaine and Josh, I am sure you are asking yourself some questions. "Who is Elaine?" "Who is Josh?" "Who are Elaine and Josh" "What does bosh even mean?" "Why am I not wearing pants right now?"
Well, my friend, while I cannot help you with the last question, I can begin to help you with the rest:
ELAINE is a seventeen year old Jewish girl who hates math. She has become bitter and jaded after working for minimum wage at a multiplex and can identify most dog breeds immediatley after seeing them. She has seen Elton John in concert and likes to read trashy memoirs and watch reruns of Queer as Folk on Logo.
JOSH is a sixteen year old Buddhist boy (who is often mistaken for a female on the phone). He has a 5.0 GPA and got fired from his first job. He is an avid crocheter and hypnotized himself to learn French quickly. He once went to a Halloween party as Uma Thurman from Kill Bill, and takes "genius pills" that his mom gives him.
ELAINE AND JOSH met in eighth grade when they both were taking the Yearbook class. They were placed in the same group and made a few shitty pages for the yearbook and spent the year making a video retrospective to be shown at the end-of-the-year banquet. They truly bonded when Elaine showed Josh the film Donnie Darko. Josh shared Pulp Fiction with Elaine, and since then they have spent there time finding other bizarre films to shock each other with. One of their favorite movies that they recommed to everyone they meet is The Man Who Fell to Earth. They pray to Tim Curry, and once drove two hours to see him interview John Landis (you can Wikipedia him if you don't know who he is…like we didn't. If you are unfamiliar with Tim Curry, we kindly ask you to leave this blog now.) They spend a lot of time at their favorite hangout, Santana's Mexican Grill, and making short films about eggs.
BOSH, if you looked at the top of the page you would know means: something regarded as absurd; nonsense.
Have a lovely evening,
Elaine and Josh

Studies Indicate Sluggish Demand In Established Markets Will Continue As Buyers Remain Motivated In China
Luxury brands have had what can conservatively be called a tough year, with the global economic crisis putting a gaping wound in their profits in traditionally high-demand countries like the US and Japan, and recovery lagging behind expectations. These figures have been tempered somewhat by the potential of the Chinese market to soften the blow of falling demand elsewhere, if not counteract it completely. While it is still a bit quixotic to expect China to be the savior of luxury brands everywhere — since it is still very much a developing market — it does benefit luxury brands to plan ahead for the time when China is the world's biggest luxury market, and start brainstorming on their long-term strategy for sustained growth as well as strong brand loyalty.
This week, Harvard Business looked into the Chinese luxury market, digging through statistics to discern whether this market truly is all it's cracked up to be. While their findings suggest that hyperbolic enthusiasm about the Chinese consumer is unwarranted — as we've written before — they do remain bullish about the potential of this populous and fast-moving market:
New research from McKinsey & Co. indicates that, by 2015, China will be home to the world's fourth-largest population of wealthy households, an estimated 4.4 million. McKinsey also reports that presently, about 80% of China's wealthy are between the ages of 18 and 45 (versus 30% in the US). Jing Ulrich, the chairman of China equities at Morgan Stanley, was recently quoted in Forbes as saying of China, "With the global recovery unlikely to be smooth, domestic demand is likely to remain the primary engine of growth in the remainder of 2009." In a Wall Street Journal op-ed last year, Zachary Karabell argued that "the rise of the Chinese consumer is the only thing standing between them [global companies] and a decline in their business."

I get wary about seeing certain bands being used as a "Recommended If You Like…" comparison, and never more so than when I see the glorious Bat For Lashes being banded about. I've been let down before. A couple of times I have gone charging into the musical fray, high in expectations, for a slice of Lady Khan infused sonic beauty only to find that the PR persons view of what that means and what the artist can actually deliver have been separated at musical birth. Thankfully there is none of that disappointment to be found here.
March is a lovely piece, all drama and astute dynamics, mixing angularity with rich vocal harmony, intimate lyrical connections with strident guitars and sweeping string sections. And whilst it may not evoke the aforementioned Miss Khan as much as previous single Numbers, the question is not so much why would it want to, more why would it need to? DateMonthYear are fellow travellers down the alt-pop road rather than mere imitators, just as much beating a new path through the musical landscape rather than following an existing trail.
It blends folk honesty, chamber pop grandeur, cinematic rock scope and a widescreen beauty that is often missing from modern music. It deals with grief and loss in the least subdued way possible, hitting musical crescendos as it tugs emotional and slightly melancholic threads. Soul searching and existential exploration has never sounded so exciting.

Munir's agent accuses Barcelona of not keeping their promises
The player's agent says Ernesto Valverde informed the player that he would not be called up unless he renewed and can leave on a free at the end of the season.
Munir's agent has accused Barcelona's sporting directors, Ernesto Valverde and the board of not keeping their promises from the start of the season regarding his client and playing time that he was assured over.
According to Francisco Valdivieso, Munir has been told by the Barcelona manager that he would not be brought into any squad of his without renewing his contract. He is free to leave on June 30th and has plenty of offers on the table.
"The week against Celta Vigo, Munir got the news from the manager that he was not going to call him up until he decided to renew and he is very disappointed," said the agent.
"The player is very grateful to Barcelona and is absolutely committed to the club because he knows he has a contract until June, but the big kick in the teeth is that after the promises that the sporting directors made and the manager at the start of the year, the have not relied on him," he said.
The agent did say that "there are many teams interested in him."

For those looking for ways to experience the Philippines' best beach destinations, it is time to plan an exciting vacation on board Cebu Pacific Air (CEB). The Philippines' largest national flag carrier, CEB is the key to a refreshing, sun-drenched vacation by the sea.
The Philippines' unique marine treasures and festive islands offer a lot of diving wonders, picture-perfect summer hotspots and exotic seascapes at their breathtaking best. The trick, as they say, is in knowing where to look.
Where to go for Diving
For those who can't wait to slip into their wetsuits and pick the best place to go underwater, CEB has thrice daily flights from Manila to Puerto Princesa in Palawan, which offers a lot of magnificent dive sites that not too many visitors have had the chance to explore. These include the White Beach and the Red Cliff that is home to the most diverse marine life including manta rays, sharks, dugong, and the rare whale shark.
CEB also flies four times weekly to San Jose in Mindoro Occidental, gateway to Apo Reef, the world's largest atoll reef next to the Great Barrier Reef. Apo Reef is home to 385 species of colorful marine fishes, grey reef and thresher sharks, marine turtles, endangered sea cows, dolphins, sea birds, manta rays, clown fish, and a large variety of marine life.
|Apo Reef: magnificence under water
Another Palawan treasure is Busuanga, the gateway to Coron Island where CEB flies to twice daily. It is famous for its wildlife sanctuary and twelve historic shipwreck diving sites that surround it. The twelve ships sunk during the Japanese war in 1944 and have become the island's premiere tourist spot. It is also known for its twin lagoons, hot springs and the seven Siete Picados islets which are perfect for island hopping.
Where to go for Fun
Everyone can't seem to get enough of Boracay's world-famous beach, with thousands of tourists on board CEB's 13 times daily flights to the Caticlan Airport year-in and year-out. But aside from its perfect sunsets and the exhilarating party scene, this top beach destination offers fun and adventure with its all-terrain vehicle rides, outrigger sailing, kite surfing and parasailing.
Northern Philippines also has Pagudpud to offer to beach enthusiasts, which is now renowned for its waves that are perfect for surfing, and winds that are perfect for kite surfers. Pagudpud can be reached by local and foreign tourists through CEB's daily flights to Laoag in Ilocos Norte. Several adventure-lovers also swear by their sand boarding experiences at the Paoay sand dunes in Laoag.
|The scenic way to Pagudpud
Where to go for Romance
Located in the Samal group of islands off the coast of Davao, is the famously scenic Pearl Farm Beach Resort. A tranquil and picturesque tropical paradise, this quiet retreat is perfect for an intimate wedding affair or romantic getaway with its secluded and relaxing surroundings. Hop off any of CEB's six times daily flights to Davao and hop on a ferry to Samal to witness this luxuriant backdrop of sun, sand and surf.
|The blues as far as your eyes can see.
Filipinos in the United Arab Emirates, don't forget to join the 100 Lucky Juans contest of Cebu Pacific in their Facebook page! You might just be the lucky Juan! 😉 Details here.

I am seeking some advice/opinions from the more experienced members about the Ortofon M20E Super cartridge with Linn Ittok LV II tonearm.
I have to admit that I am not clued in at all when it comes to cartridge and tonearm combinations, particularly the Linn Sondek LP12 parts and upgrades.
My turntable came with this cart/tonearm configuration when I bought it, so I've always wondered if changing to a different cart would yield a sound improvement (no pun intended), not that it sounds bad, I actually don't mind how it sounds at the moment.
I have a number of carts that I wanted to try but just not sure whether they'd be suitable for the Ittok LV II tonearm, for instance in terms of compliance, etc...
Maybe the Ortofon M20E Super is already better than everything else I've got, for example - Denon DL-110 & DL-103 LCII, Ortofon 2M Red, AT95E - Who knows? Over to you...

photos by stacey bode
today, in feverish delirium, we all decided to make good on plans to do a silly photo shoot with one of our hosts, stacey. stacey is a pretty rad photographer so i was quite honoured to be posing for her. that said, my brain is so overheated parts of the session are a little blurry.
did i mention i have had a cruddy cold ever since the curtain dropped on the festival i was here performing in? yes, this is all true.
but back to the photo shoot...when i rolled out of bed in the early afternoon, stacey was scraping foamy tape off of some wood panling with a rusty razor blade. this, apparently, is how you make photographic magic (as evidenced by the ensuing photos). we then raided the weird crap in our car and some fake birds of staceys (she apparently has a thing for fake birds in photos). she also ended the afternoon by taking some magnificent photos of my buttons and aitor's art. we shall never be denied from a craft fair again with these!

2015 Canadian Grand Prix Preview
Circuit Gilles Villeneuve snapshot
"Montreal is an old-school circuit. The speeds are high and the walls are close, so you need total commitment to extract the best lap time. I enjoy the challenge and it will be interesting to see how our car goes on this type of circuit."
"It was great to get our first points of the season in Monaco. But it was only eighth place and we've been working flat-out since then to improve performance further. Montreal will be a very different challenge and we'll do everything possible to add to our points tally there."
Circuit lowdown
After the slow-speed demands of Monaco, Formula 1 heads across the pond to one of the fastest circuits on the calendar. The Circuit Gilles Villeneuve, situated on an island in the St Lawrence River in Montreal, is the first high-speed challenge of the 2015 campaign. It requires the teams to focus on three main areas of performance: braking, traction and top speed.
The cars exceed 300km/h (186mph) on four occasions around the lap and each time they have to brake into a slow-speed chicane or hairpin. Such high levels of deceleration put the brakes under huge amounts of stress and, as a result, they require careful monitoring throughout the 70-lap race.
Other important areas of performance are traction and mechanical grip. The circuit has an old, low-grip surface, on which it's easy to get too much wheelspin under acceleration. Good driveability from the power unit is vital because there are six second-gear corners around the lap, all leading onto long straights.
In cooler temperatures it can also be difficult to get the front axle working properly, emphasising the importance of mechanical grip. To help this, Pirelli is taking the two softest compounds in its range: the Soft (Prime) and the Supersoft (Option). These are the same compounds as in Monaco a fortnight ago.
From a driving point of view, the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve has no fast corners, but it's still a hard track to tame. The walls are close and the drivers need to be very precise with their lines; the smallest of errors can have serious consequences. The final corner has claimed many star names over the years; Jacques Villeneuve, Damon Hill, Michael Schumacher, Jenson Button and Sebastian Vettel have all crashed there, leading to the outside barrier being known colloquially as 'The Wall of Champions'.
McLaren has an impressive record in Canada, having won the race 13 times. Among those victories is Jenson Button's memorable win in 2011.

Technical words of wisdom
Jonathan Neale, chief operating officer and acting CEO
"Everyone loves racing in Canada; it's one of the truly historic circuits on the Formula 1 calendar. The racing is always tough and it's a challenging circuit for the cars.
"From a technical point of view, the one area you'd pick out is braking. The cars are low-drag, high-power, and there are big stopping momentums. Brake wear is something that all of the teams are concerned about, and not just from a safety point of view; there's a lot of performance in it.
"You want to maximise the effectiveness of the brakes, while trying not to compromise other areas of performance. Brake wear and temperatures have to be carefully monitored."

Our most memorable Canadian Grand Prix: 2011
Lewis Hamilton and Jenson Button ran inside the top six early on, but disaster struck on lap eight when they touched and Lewis was forced to retire with broken rear suspension.
Torrential rain at one-third distance brought out the red flag. When the race was re-started, Jenson was forced to pit immediately after contact with Fernando Alonso. With 30 laps to go, he was in last position.
Another Safety Car period closed up the field and Jenson, on newer option tyres than most of the field, was able to carve his way up the order. He took second place with five laps to go and passed Sebastian Vettel for the lead on the final lap of the race. "My best win," was how Jenson described it afterwards.

"It's great to be going back to North America. Montreal is a great city and the circuit is up there with the most exciting tracks on the calendar. It has so much history and some great battles have happened there between legendary drivers, so it's always special to get in the car and experience this circuit and all the unpredictable elements that go with it – it's a really exhilarating place.
"Jenson's points in Monaco were a great boost for the whole team and more proof of the progress we are making race by race. On my side of the garage, it's disappointing to have had two technical issues in a row, but as usual we're working extremely hard to understand these problems. Reliability is always the most important factor, so before performance we must focus on making sure we start the weekend positively and maximise the practice sessions to get our car properly set up for this track.
"The circuit itself is tricky – that's what makes it so special – and always provides great racing. It's obviously very different from Monaco because it's so high-speed, but, like Monaco, there are lots of technical corners that mean you need to focus on having good balance and downforce in the car, especially under braking. Despite the reliability issues I've had in the last two races, the car has felt good, so our priority is to have a trouble-free weekend and get the maximum performance out of our package."
#22 Jenson Button
|35 (January 19 1980)
|Fastest laps

|1st (2011)
"After the whirlwind that is Monaco I'm really looking forward to heading back to Montreal. I love the city, the people are friendly, the atmosphere is buzzing and it's just a really great place to be. The fans there are incredible and they always give us such a warm welcome.
"The circuit is a real racer's track and I absolutely love it, it's definitely one of my favourites. It's the place where I had probably my most famous victory back in 2011, so it'll be interesting to see what the changeable weather will throw at us this year – it's something that's definitely part of Montreal's charm!
"Getting points on the board has been really positive and shows that we're continuing to make big strides, but, if anything, it's spurred us on even more to keep pushing until we reach where we want to be. Fernando hasn't had much luck in the last few races so we all need to keep our heads down and keep fighting to make sure we get both cars to the flag. The Circuit Gilles Villeneuve requires good top speed, so we can't underestimate the challenge, but anything can happen there – and usually does – so we'll be getting stuck in right from the word go."
Eric Boullier - Racing director, McLaren-Honda
"From Monaco to Montreal – two very different racetracks but ones that share a lot of similar characteristics. Like Monaco, Montreal is a real racer's track, but for very different reasons: there's lots of sweeping corners and it's a complex technical challenge for our engineers. For McLaren, it's a very special place – we've won 13 grands prix there – and it's a circuit that always produces fantastic racing.
"Of course, we can't be pleased with eighth position, and we're still a long way behind where we want to be. Nonetheless, I'm proud of our progress and the rate of development we're maintaining, and we're continuing this push with every grand prix. Although I don't like to dwell on the past too much, comparing the pre-season tests with our current performance shows just how hard we've worked to fight towards the front.
"Our more promising performances have been scuppered by frustrating technical issues though, most recently on Fernando's side of the garage, so we're working hard to iron these out so that we can really see the potential of both cars and keep developing. We must target improved reliability and consistency in order to achieve our maximum potential. While the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve doesn't play to our car's strengths, Montreal is a great place to put our car to the test; it's a world-class city with world-class fans and we'll be working very hard as usual to put on a good show for our loyal supporters."
Yasuhisa Arai - Chief Officer of Motorsport, Honda R&D Co Ltd
"At Monaco, I was very happy that McLaren-Honda scored its first championship points. This was down to the continuous hard work of the team. Of course, it was unfortunate Fernando retired as we were hoping to get both cars home in the points, but we gain more confidence as the season goes on. Our power unit is progressing in the right direction, and we've taken another step upwards as a team.
"The Canadian GP will be very different. This track is flat with long and fast straights, where the throttle is often fully open, which is tough on the power unit and fuel economy. Furthermore, hard braking is required. All in all, the circuit needs a completely different power unit setting from Monaco. We'll prepare the power unit so that it performs to its full potential during the weekend."

Seraph's Sanctions: Faith and the Future Force #1
Writer: Jody Houser
Art: Stephen Segovia, Barry Kitson
Colors: Ulises Arreola
Letterer: Dave Sharpe
Publisher: VALIANT COMICS (July 2017)
The Breakdown:
Neela & her dinosaur lady partner, Ank, come to the present through time to get Faith. Why? To save creation. From what? An evil robot. Is Faith ready for time travel? You bet your a$$ she is.
The Bad:
The Moment of the Issue:
Honestly squeaked when Faith said she was waiting all her life to be told to save all of time … and the doctor who reference.
(Yes. I am a Whovian among other things.)
The Good:
First off, the book's art is wonderful. Segovia and Kitson bring their A-games into the book, creating wonderfully clean line work and glamours detail. Their panel work is superb, making each character look and feel special while creating the universe of Valiant feel good. There isn't much in terms of backgrounds, but still do a spectacular job of making the book look and feel like a "epic" adventure. With powerful expression and interesting perspectives, Segovia and Kitson do trap the feel of Faith alongside the timey-wimey of Neela that was established during the Ivar, Timewalker title. Arreola's colors are still some of the best in the business and do a great job of meshing both styles of art together. While both styles are used well based on when in time they are used, Arreola's colors add the consistency and power the line and ink work.
Houser takes this story to do a lot for Faith and Neela. Allowing the tone of Faith's series spill over, Houser makes sure to make the switch in tone and premise feel organic. There's some superb characterization here as Houser makes Faith feel consistent with her voice while progressing her from the issues she had with the end of her title. Meanwhile, Houser definitely makes Neela shine as the new Timewalker, definitely living up to the task left by the previous Timewalker, Ivar.
Houser does a good job of developing the main plot of trying to save time itself while Neela has some secrets of her own and there is more going on then what is being seen. Houser peppers the issue with great pop culture references … including Doctor Who being referenced more than once. The dialogue was wonderful and Ank feels a big more evolved since her last appearance at the end of Ivar, Timewalker. The fact that time does get played with here in a very simple, yet interesting way allows Houser to bring different aspects of time travel and Faith's life into the book.
The Verdict:
Faith and the Future Force #1 is a superb first outing. It adds and evolves Faith from the events at the end of her series while also allowing the first issue to be accessible. The book also reintroduces Neela and Ank well as a dynamic duo of time travelers as they face a crisis in time that they need to stop … and Faith is the key in stopping it. The art is gorgeous, letting Segovia and Kitson work on their strengths while also allowing the book to feel consistent with the sequential art. Arreola once again shows why he is one of the best colorists in the business. Houser has made the story very simple to follow, but complex as there seems to have multiple layers between the time travel, whatever Neela's hiding, Faith dealing with time travel and more. It was a fun read for people who enjoy time travel and seems to peak into the Valiant Universe.

An estate agent from South Croydon jailed for fraud
An estate agent from South Croydon has been sentenced to two years for identity theft and fraud.
29 year old, Ayodele Oladuti, photographed bank cards on his phone and took bank statements as he visited clients' homes.
He'd use the documents to set up bank accounts and a phone contract in their names – before returning to collect the illegally obtained bank cards.
He attempted to defraud, 20 victims out of a total of £25,000.
He admitted seven counts of fraud and asked for a further 69 offences to be taken into consideration.

I am here continuing my notes from the ICT and the Humanities Summer School at Södertörn's University College (only two days of notes left). The theme of Experience Design continues from my last entry with Professor Ann Lantz from the Royal Technical College (KTH) Stockholm, who works with HCI and design. Lantz began by stating that, in some contrast to Jonas Löwgren's thematic and critical approach, it is usability which is important at KTH.
technology is not irrelevant
Yes, this seems a weird title on this particular blog, but in times of tragedy sometimes the last thing you think you need is a working Internet connection. This is what I thought when I saw an article about wireless being provided free for Louisiana, Alabama, and Mississippi. While, yes, this is great I could not help but wonder…what about the food and the water. Would that not be great too? But then I realized that as the phone lines are overwhelmed right now the Internet is providing a much needed service. The great people at skype have come up with a way to help that patches calls through their skypein and skypeout service. Providing people a way to find loved ones, reassure family and cry out for help not only relives tensions, but potentially diffuses stressful situations. To read more about what skype is doing, or to help, read my post in the extended entry…

Media networks
The members of the Media Networks Project are having a project meeting here in Umeå this week, and will be visiting HUMlab this afternoon. The project serves to enhance both media literacy and intercultural communicative competence among students from the partner universities. What I like about this project is that the students are presented with very practical and concrete tasks. They begin by working online and then meet on Achill Island to work there together with the local community. Last time around one of the things that they did was to put up a virtual community for the inhabitants of Achill Island and those who have moved away. Knowing that there is a very real purpose with the task is bound to have a great motivating effect on the students!
I'll write a little bit
I'll write a little bit about the Nolia exhibition a while ago.
These experiences are strange to me, as part of it is highly enjoyable – and part of it is quite disturbing. Talking to people about art, letting them try to paint, and showing how the tools and the tricks work in Photoshop – that is something I absolutely love. Teaching has always been a wonderful part of my job, and something I hope to be able to hold on to for many years (before the digital art world swept me up, I was studying to become a teacher after all: I love it). There was a lot of lovely people there this time around. I love when groups of children come by – they are so eager to try and paint for themselves… not at all as hesitant as adults always are.
But there is also the aspect of someone looking at what you are doing over your shoulder. I can fully understand why it would be interesting to watch, but it is also discomforting to be watched. Imagine, if you will, writing a highly personal essay – something that you might show people once it is finished, polished and perfect, but you'll be writing it by yourself, won't you? Then imagine that during the process, people will be standing next to you, reading every word you type into the essay, and commenting on the potency of them.
Like I said, it is both fun and not so much fun, though in the long run – meeting the people, talking to them and showing them how much FUN digital art can be, and how much you can accomplish on the computer… that makes it worth the discomfort.
Either way, here is the piece I was working on at Nolia.
