Vision, Language, and Influence:
Photographs of the South by Baldwin Lee, Walker Evans, and Eudora Welty
Knoxville Museum of Art
May 14 – August 1, 2010
Vision, Language, and Influence brings together for the first time the work of three photographers of the American South over a 50-year period. Walker Evans (1903-1976) is represented by incisive images of Alabama sharecroppers stemming from his epic collaboration with James Agee on Let Us Now Praise Famous Men. Eudora Welty (1909-2001) was a Pulitzer Prize-winning Southern writer and photographer who traveled across Mississippi in the 1930s and early 1940s taking photographs and documenting rural and small-town life in her home state. Baldwin Lee (born 1951) is a professor of photography at the University of Tennessee, and a former assistant to Walker Evans. Complementing the 50 or so works by Evans and Welty are more than 30 of Lee’s images of African-American life in the South taken during the 1980s with the support of fellowships from the Guggenheim Foundation and the National Endowment for the Arts.
Vision, Language, and Influence was organized by the Knoxville Museum of Art in collaboration with Baldwin Lee.

There are some professors from UCLA that come up to my neighborhood and record the song of warblers in an attempt to understand the language. I suggested to them it might be more interesting to people if they figured out what dogs were saying instead....

Although there is a positive relationship between dogs and human language, a dog has no concept of the "English" language.
However, According to Hungarian scientists who published a groundbreaking study, dogs understand the meaning of words and the intonation with which they are spoken.
Let's say that even if you tell your dog in a very excited tone that he needs to go to the vet, he will probably see right through you and not want to go.
It doesn't matter what the sound is called. You could teach it the Spanish word for "sit," the English term for "turn around," and the Chinese word for "wait."
It doesn't learn multiple languages, and it doesn't know that these words come from different languages.
The dog knows that when the human makes that sound, it should respond with a sound of its own; when it makes a particular sound, its owners praise it with treats and love.
Dogs' Understanding Of The Human Language
In the twenties, there was an elephant in a circus who was thought not to know any tricks, but it turned out that he knew all the schemes but responded only to Polish commands. So they had to retrain him in English. This story was made into the book/movie Water for Elephants.
Most Dogs Understand Human Language
The rhythm, patterns, tone of voice, and body language extensively communicate our intent to the dog. They can learn commands if someone takes the time to teach them consistently.

Hans Junkermann (1872-1943) was a prolific German character comedian noted for his gauche manner and walrus moustache. In films from 1911, including a brief 1930 sojourn in Hollywood, acting in German-language versions of American films under the direction of Jacques Feyder. Subsequently, he was seen in many German A-grade productions until he died in 1943. He was married to the Austrian actress Julia Serda.
Hans Ferdinand Junkermann was born in 1872 in Stuttgart. He was the son of the court actor August Junkermann and his wife, the actress Rosa Le Seur. His brother Fritz (1883-1942) was also an actor. Hans graduated from high school and joined his father's touring theatre company after dropping out of his studies at a military pedagogy school in Berlin. This was followed by a theatre tour of the USA and his debut in the play 'Onkel Bräsig' by Fritz Reuter in 1893 at the Zentral-Theater Berlin, where his father had taken over the management. Junkermann's other stations as a theatre actor were the Thalia Theatre in Hamburg in 1895, the Weimar Theatre, the Court Theatre in Wiesbaden and from 1896 the Thalia Theatre in Berlin. From 1902 to 1915 he belonged to the ensemble of the Trianon Theatre.
In 1911 Hans Junkermann made his debut as a silent film actor in Vater und Sohn/Father and Son (Walter Schmidthässler, 1910) with Alwin Neuss for Vitascope. Director Max Mack engaged him in 1913 for the film Wo ist Coletti?/Where is Coletti? (Max Mack, 1913). After the film became a success, he got many other offers to play in films, so Hans Junkermann decided against the theatre and cancelled his contract with the Trianon theatre. He limited himself to guest appearances at Berlin stages in the following years. The lanky Junkermann, whose trademark was his moustache, developed into a busy supporting actor in German films. He played Polonius in Hamlet (Svend Gade, 1921), the German film adaptation of the William Shakespeare play 'Hamlet' starring and produced by Danish silent film actress Asta Nielsen. He also played a supporting role in Maciste und die Tochter des Silberkönigs/Maciste e la figlia del re dell'argento/Maciste and the Silver King's Daughter (Luigi Romano Borgnetto, 1922), a German-Italian silent epic film starring Bartolomeo Pagano, and Helena Makowska. He also appeared in the silent comedy Prinzessin Trulala/Princess Trulala (Erich Schönfelder, Richard Eichberg, 1926) starring Lilian Harvey, Dina Gralla and Harry Halm, and the silent comedy Durchlaucht Radieschen (Eichberg, 1926-27) with Xenia Desni. In 1928 Junkermann had a rare starring role opposite Adele Sandrock in the comedy Serenissimus, der Vielgeliebte, und die letzte Jungfrau (Leo Mittler, 1928). All in all, until 1930 Hans Junkermann acted in over 110 German silent films, often in supporting parts such as aristocrats, high-ranked military, circus and vaudeville managers, impresarios and police commissioners.
In 1930 Hans Junkermann appeared three times in Hollywood in German versions of American productions. The most famous is Anna Christie (Jacques Feyder, 1930), a German-language film adapted from the 1921 Eugene O'Neill play of the same title and filmed following the release of the English-language original version of the same adaptation earlier the same year. Both versions feature leading actress Greta Garbo. In the early years of sound films, Hollywood studios produced foreign-language versions of some of their films using the same sets and sometimes the same costumes, with native speakers of the language usually replacing some or all of the original cast. The German-language version of Anna Christie is one of the few that survives. Back in Germany, he took over the management of the Schauspielhaus Steglitz from 1931 to 1934, and in 1933 he co-founded the film and stage club Kameradschaft der Deutschen Künstler. He was furthermore employed by Harry Piel for his films such as in Pipin der Kurze (1934) and Artisten (1934) where he impersonated one of his most imposing roles. In 1940 he received the appointment as a state actor. Hans Junkermann was on stage at Berlin theatres until the end, for example at the Theater am Schiffbauerdamm. His last appearance was in Akrobat schö-ö-ön (1943) at Charlie Rivel's side. He died in Berlin in 1943 at the age of 71. His grave in the Heerstraße cemetery in Berlin-Westend has not been preserved. Hans Junkermann was married to the actress Julia Serda from 1911 and was the stepfather of Charlotte Serda.

First workshop in Mobile Language Learning in Satya Wacana Christian University, Salatiga, Indonesia in September 2006

My wife and I went to the first exhibition in Germany about Adof Hitler since the end of the war,needless to say its a touchy subject. The exhibit was located in the German national history museum and when you went inside the museum you would never know there was an exhibit about Hitler. I asked if i could take pictures and i was told i could without a flash but i managed to go in and snap a few pictures before i was told i was not allowed to,
The exhibit makes a strong point to explain the rise of Hitler,his impact on Germany,its people and crimes the crimes committed by this regime. The stories i read about it in English language German newspapers say they did not want the exhibition to be something Neo Nazis would not flock to.
The whole exhibition covers Hitler's rise from obscurity,the Nazis grab of power,life in Nazi Germany,Racial laws,the start of the war to the end and Hitler's legacy.
As well as the public's perception of Hitler from his time to present. I found it a bit strange to hear laughter during the exhibit but this came from scenes from Charlie Chaplin's parody of Hitler to videos from youtube with the meme of "Hitler's reaction to.." from the movie the Untergang. The youtube video "Hitler's reaction to Micheal Jacksons death" was on display which garned alot of laughs.
The whole exhibit had many relics from Nazi Germany. There were all sorts of uniforms from the 3rd reich like posters,children's books,painting,nazi street signs,Field Marshall baton's, strips of uncut yellow fabric the with star of David and "jude" written on it. Some of the artifacts were in such pritine condition they were down right errie looking.
The whole exhibit was really interesting but the disappointing part is that the main sections of the exhibit were described in English as well as German but alot of the individual artifacts and displays were only in German which gave me the impression that the exhibit was mainly for Germans.
