This evening we were interviewed by two researchers of the KNAW (Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences) about photography, Flickr and the Tropenmuseum-Amsterdam (museum of the Tropics) in Amsterdam.
A year ago, I started a group called "Tropenmuseum-Amsterdam". The researchers are interested in the way the combined use of knowledge and images works on the internet, especially in image databases such as Flickr.
It was an interesting experience.
I am still pinching myself. After some technical gremlins on Wednesday, Laurence Whitaker interviewed me, live, on air, via the webcams. It was all unscripted, but I did my best not to waffle, remembered to breathe & tried not to trip over my words. I did get brave & have a listen back this afternoon...
L-R Martin Poyntz-Roberts, me, Laurence Whitaker.

In 2001 and 2003, I interviewed my grandfather and grandmother, Dan and Anita Minicucci. My grandfather died in 2003, and ever since I've been meaning to transfer the interviews to CD and give them to my family. I finally did it in time for Christmas, using Jewelboxing cases (thanks, Jim!) and printing assistance from Cinnamon.
The team was overwhelmed by the amount of information we got.
In collaboration with Agronet, the Ministry of Agriculture and a professional camera team a documentary was filmed in the countryside of Cauca (Colombia). A farmer and an indigenous farmer explained us about their adaptations to climate smart agriculture, their changes in practices and the way modern technologies such as text messages with weather forecasts have been able to help them.

Maria Kirilenko's post victory interview with the Tennis Channel at the 2012 New Haven Open. This tournament is the last stop on the US Open Series before the big tournament in NYC.
Thanks to Pat Law (http://www.blankanvas.bypatlaw.com), I got to photograph the legendary Steve McCurry for an online article.
M.I.A. Her real name? Maya Arulpragasam. Maya grew up in Sri Lanka and witnessed civil war firsthand. By 1986, her mom made it out of Sri Lanka with her kids, and they moved to London as refugees. That's where M.I.A. was first exposed to hip hop and rap. We're talking serious hip hop - like Public Enemy and NWA. By 2003, she had signed a record deal. In 2005, she released her first album 'Arular.' The critics loved it. Now, M.I.A. has a new explosive album out called 'Kala.'
Check out her interview with George here.
Am 09.11.2014 wollten neben Verschwörungsaffinen/Verschwörungstheoretikern der Montags-Mahnwachen und Reichsbürger auch Neonazis und Hooligans aufmarschieren. Ein von einem BFC Dynamo-Fan angemeldeter Aufmarsch wurde kurzfristig abgesagt. Dennoch kamen etwa 30-40 Neonazis aus dem Spektrum NPD, JN, die Rechte und Freie Kräfte aus Berlin und Brandenburg am Alexanderplatz an. Dort wurden sie von Polizeikräften, aber auch mehreren hundert linken Gegendemonstranten empfangen. Dabei kam es zu kurzen Auseinandersetzungen zwischen allen drei Gruppen.
Anschließend wurden die Neonazis in eine S-Bahn verbracht und entstiegen ihr erst wieder am Bahnhof Lichtenberg. Dort griff ein Neonazis aus dem Spektrum der Partei „Die Rechte“ einen Journalisten an. Der Journalist konnte die Attacke abwehren.
Mittlerweile waren die linken Gegendemonstranten auf dem Weg zum Reichstagsgelände. Dort fand vor dem Reichstag eine Kundgebung von Reichsbürgern und eine weitere von Friedensbewegten Verschwörungstheoretikern rund um die Montagsmahnwachen statt.
Vor der Kundgebung der Reichsbürger kam es zu Auseinandersetzungen. In der Folge wurden Linke Gegendemonstranten und ein Reichsbürger festgenommen. Der Reichsbürger attackierte einen Journalisten vorher.
An der Veranstaltung der Mahnwachler vorm Reichstag nahm auch der ehemalige Berliner Kameradschaftsführer Rene Bethage teil. Dieser führte Anfang der Nuller-Jahre die militante Kameradschaft „Berliner Alternative Süd-Ost“ an, welche 2005 verboten wurde.
Die Polizei zog nun Gitter auf und viele der Gegendemonstranten machte sich auf zur zweiten Verschwörungstheoretikerkundgebung vor dem Bundeskanzleramt. Dort fanden sich auch Prominente aus der NPD wieder. Der ehemalige Landeschef von Berlin und Bayern Uwe Meenen, sowie die ehemalige sächsische Landtagsabgeordnete Gitta Schüßler und der Münchner Stadtrat Karl Richter. Die beiden Letzteren befinden sich derzeit im Streit mit der NPD und tauchten in den vergangenen Wochen mehrfach bei Montagsdemonstrationen auf. Gitta Schüßler sagte in einem Interview am Rande der Kundgebung, sie wolle ihr NPD-Parteibuch abgeben und auf der Bühne zu den Menschen reden.
Die Gegendemonstranten machten sich beim Auftritt von Jürgen Elsässer bemerkbar. Durch laute Sprechchöre störten sie die Veranstaltung und die Polizei entfernte sie aus dieser. Aufgrund dessen, war somit die Hälfte an Zuhörern verloren gegangen.

A full interview with the Israeli painter Raphael Perez (in Hebrew Rafi Peretz) about the ideas behind the naive painting, resume, personal biography and CV
Question: Raphael Perez Tell us about your work process as a naive painter?
Answer: I choose the most iconic and famous buildings in every city and town that are architecturally interesting and have a special shape and place the iconic buildings on boulevards full of trees, bushes, vegetation, flowers.
Question: How do you give depth in your naive paintings?
Answer: To give depth to the painting, I build the painting with layers of vegetation, after those low famous buildings, followed by a tall avenue of trees, and behind them towers and skyscrapers, in the sky I sometimes put innocent signs of balloons, kites.
A recurring motif in some of my paintings is the figure of the painter who is in the center of the boulevard and paints the entire scene unfolding in front of him, also there are two kindergarten teachers who are walking with the kindergarten children with the state flags that I paint, and loving couples hugging and kissing and family paintings of mother, father and child walking in harmony on the boulevard.
Question: Raphael Perez What characterizes your naive painting?
Answer: Most naive paintings have the same characteristics
(Definition as it appears in Wikipedia)
• Tells a simple story to absorb from everyday life, usually with humans.
• The representation of the painter's idealization to reality - the mapping of reality.
• Failure to maintain perspective - especially details even in distant details.
• Extensive use of repeating patterns - many details.
• Warm and bright colors.
• Sometimes the emphasis is on outlines.
• Most of the characters are flat, lack volume
• No interest in texture, expression, correct proportions
• No interest in anatomy.
• There is not much use of light and shadow, the colors create a three-dimensional effect.
I find these definitions to be valid for all my naive paintings
Question: Raphael Perez Why do you mainly choose the city of Tel Aviv?
Answer: I was born in Jerusalem, the capital city which I love very much and also paint,
I love the special Bauhaus buildings in Tel Aviv, the ornamental buildings that were built a century ago in the 1920s and 1930s, the beautiful boulevards, towers and modern skyscrapers give you the feeling of the hustle and bustle of a large metropolis and there are quite a few low and tall buildings that are architecturally fascinating in their form the special one
Also, the move to Tel Aviv, which is the capital of culture, freedom, and secularism, allowed me to live my life as I chose, to live in a relationship with a man, Jerusalem, which is a traditional city, it is more complicated to live a homosexual life, also, the art world takes place mainly in the city of Tel Aviv, and it is possible that from a professional point of view, this allows I can support myself better in Tel Aviv than in any other city in Israel.

In the paintings of Jerusalem, I mainly chose the area of the Old City and East Jerusalem, a painting of the walls of the Old City, the Western Wall, the Church of the Holy Sepulcher, the El Akchea Mosque, the Tower of David, most of the famous churches in the city, the right hand of Moses, in most of the paintings the Jew is wearing a blue shirt with a red male cord I was in the youth movement and the Arab with a galabia, and in the paintings of the religious public then, Jews with black suits and white shirts, tallitas, kippahs, special hats, synagogues and more

Interviewer ~ I have to say that after our last interview I wasn’t sure you were going to grant me a second interview.
MH~ What can I say slick, I missed you.
Interviewer ~ Seriously, it’s been exactly 1 year, 1 month and 14 days since our last interview and that’s not including today.
MH~ You’re freaking me out kid… let’s get on with it shall we.
Interviewer ~ Last time we talked you were just around the corner from turning 40. How’d that work out?
MH~ Not sure I understand the question.
Interviewer ~ I mean, how did it feel to hit the big 4-0? For most people it’s a big, life-defining moment.
MH~ I’m not most people. But if you must know, it came and went without much fanfare. It was a moment defined by nothing but the date in which it occurred – nothing more nothing less.
Interviewer ~ Sounds…ah, well you know…
MH~ Suppose I don’t Slick, why don’t you tell me.
Interviewer ~ Ah… lets move onto something else.
MH~ Okay.
Interviewer ~ Of course I want to talk to you about your photography but before getting into that I want to ask you a series of questions that don’t focus on your work. Is that alright?
MH ~ Shoot slick.
Interviewer ~ How would you describe yourself?
MH~ Stupid question.
Interviewer ~ No really, give me a short definition of who Marques Haven is.
MH~ Okay, I’ll bite. Here’s the thing. I am someone whose work, as well as himself, can be defined by a single word… the trick is choosing the word.
Interviewer ~ And what word would you chose?
MH~ Now where’s the fun in that.
Interviewer ~ Quick, think of a word, any word – what is it?
MH~ What is this, an interview or a therapy session?
Interviewer ~ Do you go to therapy?
MH~ My word is Una. Though I guess that would have to be considered something other than a word.
Interviewer ~ That’s Spanish right? What does it mean?
MH~ The meaning is a little lost in translation but it short I have heard it’s a truth that doesn’t’ say anything and at the same time hides everything. Like a bonfire that does not turn off, like a stone that is born of dust… or something like that. Anyway, to me it represents the melody of a lost soul - a song dying to be heard. But I have a feeling that definition wont stand muster – but to me that’s what it represents.
Interviewer ~ Wow, that sounds beautiful and tortured at the same time.
MH~ Slick your powers of perception never cease to amaze me. Next question.
Interviewer ~ The word on the street is that you have stopped smoking, true?
MH~ The streets aren’t safe these days. You should find another place to troll for information.
Interviewer ~ You haven’t lit up once since we began this interview.
MH~ Nothing gets passed you… keep it moving.
Interviewer ~ Okay, moving on. I noticed the bottle of wine, celebrating anything?
MH~ Oh the bottle of Anta da Serra… it precedes me but I have heard it’s a bitter grape. So no, there shall be no celebrating.
Interviewer ~ So, lets talk about your work as a photographer. Your work seems to have slowed down. Have you lost inspiration?
MH~ No.
Interviewer ~ Than why haven’t you submitted anything lately. I mean I’ve seen you’re last submissions and there okay but nothing like your former work. And the frequency has slowed dramatically… why?
MH~ Truthfully I am not sure as to why. I am inspired and I have accumulated what I consider to be a strong body~of~work. However, I am beginning to feel that I need to follow some natural transition, a progression that will more acutely define me as a photographer.
Interviewer ~ What do you think that transition entails?
MH~ In short, I simply don’t know. I wish I did. I want to submit work without explanation. For me, the act of providing insight as to why I submitted this, or submitted that, dilutes the process. The meaning should be unsolicited. The result for me has been not to submit… at least not as frequently.
Interviewer ~ Do you think you will ever get into shooting subjects?
MH~ By subjects, do you mean people?
Interviewer ~ Yes.
MH ~ I would like to. I think that would fall into that natural transition. But for me it’s a matter of self-expression or more to the point, freedom of expression. If I were to begin the process of capturing subjects, people, than freedom of expression would be anything but free… costly to say the least.
Interviewer ~ I see. So what’s next?
MH ~ Dinner and possibly a drink.
Interviewer ~ Well I don’t want to take anymore of your time but if I may I have one last question. Care to mention other photographers that inspire you these days?
MH~ Earlier you implied that I lost inspiration.
Interviewer ~ That’s not what I meant. So really, who do you admire?
MH ~ There are many but I would have to say Roni River - she is a moment. She has the courage and strength to do what most cannot.
Interviewer ~ And what is that?
MH~ Give truth to herself.
Interviewer ~ Would you like to add anything before we finish?
MH~ There is nothing else to be said.
Interviewer ~ Oh, one last thing.
MH~ Of course there is.
Interviewer ~ I noticed that you use the tilde root character after your name. Why?
MH~ Of course the tilde root symbol is used often in computing – the root or home directory or back to the beginning. For me that meaning is part of it but to me the symbol also represents the ebb and flow of things, the up and down flow of ones existence. In my case, my existence.
Interviewer ~ Thank you for the time, I hope we can do this again.
MH ~ Don’t get your hopes up slick!
