Europe Meets Latin America: A Forum for Young Leaders:"Emphasizing Commonalities or Differences: New Perspectives on European-Latin American Relations" (Berlin, 12th ? 17th September 2010)
12.09.2010, Uhr @ Institute for Cultural Diplomacy, Kurfürstendamm 207-208, 10719 Berlin
Eintrittspreis: kostenlos
The strong cultural and historical links between Europe and Latin America play an important role in determining the nature of contemporary relations between the two regions, and between individual countries within the regions. Recently, however, scholars and key stakeholders have emphasised the importance of treating the two regions as distinct entities, and highlighting the differences between the two. Doing so, it is argued, allows for a more pragmatic, forward thinking approach to foreign policies and regional agreements. In addition to looking at this history and development of cultural diplomacy and its application in bi-regional relations, the forthcoming EMLA Weeklong Seminar will consider these two approaches and the extent to which they might offer different perspectives on the future of European-Latin American relations. The seminar is open to applications from academics, diplomatic and political representatives, civil society practitioners, journalists, young professionals and students and other individuals with an interest in European Latin American relations, cultural studies, and global politics. Confirmed speakers for the Forum include: Prof. Manfred Nitsch- Professor of LateinAmerika Institute in FU Berlin Prof. Uli Brückner- EU Jean Monnet Professor at Stanford Prof. Michaela Balke- member of Oikocredit Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs in Panamá To get further information on or apply to the program, please visit: http://www.culturaldiplomacy.org/youngleadersforums/index.php?en_forums_emla_about

Eintrittspreis: kostenlos
weit entfernt von cool ? dlouha cesta ke cool Unter dem Motto weit entfernt von cool ? dlouha cesta ke cool treffen die Arbeiten verschiedenster tschechischer Künstler aufeinander. Die in DIY-Manier konzipierte Veranstaltung mit Bands, Kurzfilmen und Fotoausstellung findet am 18. September 2010 im Berliner Klub Antje Öklesund statt. Dabei soll die subjektive (Innen-)Sicht der jungen Generation auf die Tschechische Republik und ihre Kultur und das Leben dargestellt werden. Das alles in freier Assoziation zum leicht ironischen Motto weit entfernt von cool. Programm: 15:00 ? 20:00 Fotoausstellung, Filmscreening, Grillen und tschechisches Essen 21:00 ? ??? Konzert und Diskoteka mit FLATJOKE FIFE Fotos: Amateure, Dilettanten und Profis zeigen ihre Fotos und Ansichten aus und auf Tschechien Film: Die Kurzfilmanimateure Cattle Show Crisis aus der tschechischen Provinz zeigen ihre Stop-Motion Science Fiction Dramen. Thematisch geht es dabei um desillusionierte Ninjas, verschrecktes Essen und flüchtende Babys. Klingt Krass, ist es auch. Musik: Sporto, OTK, Gaffa Sporto verwursten Postpunk, Elektro, Hip Hop und Pop zu ihrem ganz eigenen Stil. Dabei sind sie so radikal wie narzisstisch. Zitat: My jsme Sporto ? kdo jsi ty? Immer auf DIY bedacht veröffentlichten sie mehrere Alben in Eigenregie zum kostenlosen download und sonst vor allem Vinyl. Name dropping: think: Simian, Robbie Williams, Primal Scream, New Order mit OTK kann man so schnell keine Band vergleichen. Sie benutzen die merkwürdigsten Instrumente und vermischen sie zu einem Mix aus Pop, Jazz, Postpunk und Singer-Songwriter ? und jetzt kann man sich noch immer nichts darunter vorstellen. Na toll! Zitat: sly?í? pach z úst OTK sind musikalische Professionalität in Reinform mit DEM Soundmann der tschechischen Indie-Szene am Mikro. name dropping: think: Massive Attack, Karate, Velvet Underground, Korn Gaffa verkörpern fleischgewordenen Minimalismus. Arschtret-Punk, New Wave, Two Step und Mädchenchor lassen sich gleichermaßen finden. Zitat: We..ll make you be better Gaffa sind weder professionell noch narzisstisch, sondern vor allem dilettantisch im besten Sinne name dropping: think: Bikini Kill, Le Tigre, The Fall, Karel Gott

JSConf.EU 2010
25.09.2010, Uhr @ Villa Elisabeth, Invalidenstrasse 4, 10115 Berlin
Eintrittspreis: kostenlos
Some people say JSConf in April 2009 in Washington DC created the JavaScript community, others call it the best tech conference ever. Pretty much everybody who was there agrees that the conference had a very special spirit. With JSConf.eu we try to let that spirit live on and give JavaScript a home in Europe. Here is how Chris Williams, the man behind the original JSConf, put the goals behind JSConf: JSConf 2009 is a conference devoted to the programming language we all love to hate and hate to love, JavaScript. This is conference will be thoughtful, content driven, and exemplify the very nature of JavaScript. The core focus of this conference is to expose some of the details about JavaScript that are often overlooked and present them more as a discussion with the audience. The content of the conference should cater to all types of JavaScript users from client interfaces to server development to testing. No matter which programming language you love, you know of the pleasure and pain of JavaScript programming. Come to this conference if you love JavaScript, come if you hate it, come if you don't even know how to program. Whatever drives you to come, you can be sure of one thing, there will be a lot of exciting and invigorating discussions to be had. After all, we are talking about JavaScript here and its used by every web framework. We are trying to conduct this conference in such a manner that it addresses the core issues of the community as well as announcing cutting edge technologies in a language that often gets overlooked. The content and conference style will be different from most other conferences, not barcamp-style and not multi-track style, but somewhere between the two. We are trying to make something different and we are trying to do it with JavaScript.
