We are extremely proud to have recent supported affiliate Humans Without Borders.
This is for their 'Day at the Sea' event, held on the 5th of August 2015.
Below we include a description of the event. This is in the words of Human Without Borders:
"Yesterday, 5 August, Humans without Borders, with the support of Children of Peace took two busloads of Palestinian families to the Tel Baruch beach north of Tel Aviv. What is unique about these families is that each has at least one very sick child requiring intensive medical attention in an Israeli hospital. In all we took 57 children to the event – children under treatment, and brothers and sisters and about 30 parents. Several were unable to make the trip due to hospitalization or illness or the fact that we were unable to get them permits from the military government.
We put together a major support organization, of about a dozen Humans without Borders active volunteers and a few of their teenage children, 10 youngsters from the villages of Abu Gosh and Ein Rafa (west of Jerusalem), a half dozen students from the “Hand in Hand” bi-national school in Jerusalem, and a volunteer nurse. Since all these people are Arabic speakers. There interaction with the children was immediate and extremely positive. This was a major factor in the huge success of the day.
The meeting points were two Israeli military checkpoints – Bethlehem (south of Jerusalem) and Kalandia (north of the city). The excitement was amazing. We set the departure time at 9:00 AM but the first call I received was at 7:30 from a family from Jenin (2 and a half hours north of the checkpoint) that they had already arrived at Kalandia. As soon as the buses arrived, the families were onboard and ready to go.
The Tel Baruch beach is a magnificent location with a breakwater and massive stretches of sparkling sand. Dana Cohen, the Humans without Borders volunteer who managed the event, arrived early in the morning and set up 24 beach umbrellas to provide shade for the families. We called it a Palestinian settlement in Israel!
It was quite amazing to see the reaction of many of the parents who had never seen the sea until yesterday. They were simply stunned by the expanses and the distant, unending horizon. This is exactly as one woman described it to me.
The kids were in the water before we could get them coated in screen block and, after a bit of convincing, the parents followed. From a social and traditional perspective it was fascinating to see how fully-clothed Palestinian women enjoyed themselves as much as Israeli girls in bikinis. Everyone was frolicking in the water. We brought along, tubes, balls, pails and shovels and such so the only thing the kids complained about was when we pulled them out of the water to eat.
Dana brought along a selection of baked goods for breakfast and tons of watermelon and we had ice pops (popsicles where I grew up) to make sure they were getting sufficient fluids.
Lunch was delivered by a woman from Jaffa who prepares traditional Palestinian food. It was delicious and nothing remained except for empty containers.
It was a very hot day, in spite of the fact that the temperatures had dropped from around 40C to about 33C. It was crucial that we consider the time the children would be exposed to the sun. Thus we vetoed several of our initial ideas such as a boat trip or a kite project. It was simply too dangerous to have them in the fierce sun for so many hours.
At about 3:30 PM we called it a day – much to the chagrin of several of the boys. Everyone showered in fresh-water showers on the beach and we were on our way back to a much harsher reality.
This event could not have been possible without the generous support of Children of Peace. Many people – Israelis, Palestinians and even a Dutch couple – asked just what your logo was doing on the shirts and I explained what our organizations do and the support you provided for the day at the beach."

Trustmark Park is the home of the Mississippi Braves, Class AA affiliate of the Atlanta Braves and is located in Pearl, Mississippi, USA. The ballpark, which opened April 18, 2005, has capacity for nearly 7,500 fans. There are 5,500 chair-back seats in the reserved seating areas. The grass berm beyond the outfield walls has room for an additional 2,000 general admission customers. On August 13, 2006 a record crowd of 7,652 saw the M-Braves defeat the Huntsville Stars 4-2.
Trustmark Park features a 360-degree concourse that allows fans to circle the playing field without missing a pitch. The ballpark is in a recessed bowl with seating starting at the main level and proceeding downward. All support facilities face outward onto the concourse, thus spectators can leave their seats and not be separated from the game action.
Red bricks and exposed steel trusses reflect the feel of a historic ballpark, with modern-day conveniences. The scoreboard located behind the left-center-field wall includes a 16-foot-tall and 21-foot-wide video board that features everything from live action to instant replay to commercials.
The Farm Bureau Grill, beyond the right-field wall, is a full-service restaurant with a capacity for 200 customers. There are nine baseball-themed concession stands that offer a wide variety of ballpark treats.
Twenty-two luxury suites that seat between 16 and 20 fans are equipped with hardwood floors, a bar, flat screen TV, refrigerator and sliding doors that open up to two rows of seats.
The ballpark also includes the Alltel picnic pavilion, 150 closed-circuit monitors positioned around the park televising the game, two merchandise shops, and a kids play area beyond the center-field wall.
The field dimensions are 330 feet down the left-field line, 332 feet (101 m) down the right-field line, and 400 feet (120 m) to center-field. The playing surface is peppered with a maze of underground pipelines capable of draining up to 10 inches of rain every hour.
The ballpark derives it name from the sale of naming rights to Trustmark Corporation, headquartered in Jackson, Mississippi.

Every year the last week of May is dedicated to l'infiorata of the city of Noto, an event.
In which this year is affiliated with the national lottery ( the infiorata lottery of Noto ). This event Is one of the best events on the Island of Sicily.It came about 20 years ago when Gezanese and Noto artists met and it is right at Genzano in the Province of Rome that this beautiful picturesque Technique is developed.Corrado Nicolaci is the street in which l'infiorata is born, the impact is strong where the church of Montevergini is opposed to the Palace of Prince Nicolaci "Villa dorata" With balconies which have been defined as the most beautiful in the world.
In the street a series of Palaces belonging to the nobility which create a surprising prospective:Modica palace, Giunta palace But it is the actual city of Noto that brings all these things together that creates an architectonic Stage.On Friday the artists are ready to recreate on the ground their designs with flowers which Beforehand are created with pastels and brushes and so the long hard work begins and ends at dawn On Saturday when the artists retire to a worthy rest and the crowd of visitors will admire their Masterpieces till Monday afternoon when it will be destroyed by a parade of children that run on
The flowered carpet.

Varous Artists
Wednesday 6 - Friday 8 November, Check listing for times
Various Locations
Various Locations
Street Talks is a series of quickfire public talks, part of the Re@ct: Social Change Art Technology Symposium. Rather than your typical poster session, these talks will take place on the streets of Dundee in various locations. Free speech is essential to political and social change – these artists are quite literally taking it to the streets to share their creative practices.
Luisa Charles & Elke Reinhuber –Wednesday 6th November, 2pm, Slessor Gardens
Luisa Charles – discusses the intersections of disability and design, and how novel bespoke design practices could offer a solution to designing for all needs, where universal design could not. These design ideologies, that include co-design, individual centred design, mass customisation, and mass personalisation, are exemplified by case studies from pop culture design media, such as the Fixperts and BBC’s Big Life Fix. She analyses the social, technological, and economical shifts that are required for these practices to become mainstream, and the capability of bespoke design to cause enough disruption within the design economy to create a shift in capitalism.
Elke Reinhuber – The Urban Beautician moved recently from the speckless city state of Singapore, where she already developed her retirement plans, across the South China Sea, to protest-ridden Hong Kong. There, she observed how much effort the cleaners put up to keep these megapolises scrubbed and tidy. As they are frequently overlooked, the Urban Beautician captured some of them during their relentless daily routine. While they have adapted themselves to their particular duties, their skills are hardly ever honoured or even acknowledged. Paying homage to their Sisyphean challenge, they can be positioned now anywhere through Augmented Reality and venerated as perpetualised sculptures of our everyday heroes.The Urban Beautician tries to improve neglected details in our urban environment with interventions in public space and performances to camera. Since more than a decade she cares for things most people are oblivious to.
Ibarieze Abani and Daisy Abbott & Anders Zanichkowsky – Thursday 7th November, 1:30pm, Albert Square, by McManus Gallery Steps
Ibarieze Abani and Daisy Abbott – Transmedia storytelling uses multiple delivery channels to convey a narrative in order to provide a more immersive entertainment experience (Jenkins, 2009). Transmedia activism can be very broadly defined as using storytelling to “effect social change by engaging multiple stakeholders on multiple platforms to collaborate toward appropriate, community-led social action” (Srivastava, 2009). Activism depends on participation and collaboration within a community to avoid unsustainable or inappropriate top-down interventions. A similar concept, transmedia mobilization, uses transmedia storytelling to engage “the social base of a movement in participatory media making practices across multiple platforms” (Constanza-Chock, 2013) and also requires interaction from diverse voices from within the community.
Anders Zanichkowsky –“I Am in Your Hands: Smartphones and the erotics of the future”Social media artist and queer anarchist Anders Zanichkowsky will present excerpts and reflections from his current Grindr project, “Queen of Hearts,” as well as other recent projects reading Tarot cards on hookup apps and go-go dancing for a remote audience on Instagram. During this talk, Anders will use the same social media platforms that are the subject of his presentation, inviting you into the theory behind the work, and into the work itself. Equal parts cultural criticism, performance art, and experimental public speaking, this street talk will level the hierarchy of physical presence over virtual appearance, and scandalously suggest how thirst traps and sexting with strangers can indeed point us towards a radical future of queer intimacy and counterculture.
Mohammad Namazi & Matteo Preabianca – Friday 8th November, 1:30pm, Wellgate Centre, Victoria Road entrance
Mohammad Namazi – An Archive of Audio Disobedience, intervenes into the public realm, and collaborates with individuals, to construct a live-event. The event manifests through utilising a net-based sound archive, capable of involving participants in a collective form of sound-action, -publication, -demonstration, -performance, and -play.
The archive comprises various audio effects, sound segments, words, and computer-generated speeches – to stage a critical symphony, rooted in and derived from, socio-political concerns.
Matteo Preabianca – Mantra Marx is the eighth album for the NonMiPiaceIlCirco! Project. NonMiPiaceIlCirco! is a musical project that has been on since 2004, the year of the first album. Since then, the line-up has been in a constant change, with Matteo Preabianca the only member from the beginning. So they took The Capital from the shelf to read again. But who remembers it, especially young people? Let’s get rid of guitars and songs to give a didactic approach to the music. 25 tracks, one for each of the First Book’s 25 chapters. They use the lyrics as Hinduist mantras, where repetition is the key for a deep understanding of our life, and Marx as well. Its music, besides being lo-fi and badly made, is just an excuse. The lyrics are a summarized version of the aforementioned book, spoken by 25 different Mandarin native voices, completely unaware of the reason behind the recording. Still time to die as a Marxist(?). Developed and recorded in China.
About the Artists
Daisy Abbott is an interdisciplinary researcher and research developer based in the School of Simulation and Visualisation at The Glasgow School of Art. Daisy’s current research focusses on game-based learning, 3D visualisation, and issues surrounding digital interaction, documentation, preservation, and interpretation in the arts and humanities. She also collaborates with artists on works aiming to explore the nature of digital interactivity and digital art.
Luisa Charles is an interaction designer, multidisciplinary artist, and filmmaker. Having been exhibited in the Science Museum, Science Gallery London, London Design Festival, and various film festivals, amongst others, her work spans many themes across science and technology, social politics, and personal narratives. She specialises in installation design and physical computing, experience design, fabrication, and videography, and her work often comes under the umbrella of speculative and critical design. Her work focuses heavily on research processes, and forms itself organically through investigation and experimentation.
Ibarieze Abani is a recent Masters graduate in Serious Games and Virtual Reality at the Glasgow School of Art, where she has carried out projects about cultural heritage, gender inequality, transmedia storytelling and climate policy. She is an advocate of the capabilities of interactive digital media as a tool for opening up dialogues surrounding large scale themes such as climate justice, social justice and intersectionality. She has a keen interest in working with people using digital media to make meaningful and tangible differences on a societal scale.
Mohammad Namazi (b. 1981. Tehran) is an artist, educator and researcher based in London. Mohammad works through means of de-construction, collaboration, process, unlearning, and telematics systems within social and cultural realms. The studio operates as a research-lab for inter-disciplinary projects that can span video, sound, liveevents, graphics, photography, sculptural structures, and internet-based projects. He received his doctorate from UAL research in 2019, and currently teaches as visiting lecturer at Wimbledon, and Chelsea College of Arts. Mohammad is a member of research cluster Critical Practice.
Matteo Preabianca- Music and Languages…Music and Languages? How come? Matteo starts playing violin when he was a child, but he did not like it, especially when he tried to beat it on the table. It did not make any good sound. So, better drumming, right? Meanwhile playing and spending a lot his mum’s money to buy records he realised even speaking other languages was not so bad. Especially when he invented his own. Step by step, he turned into a music and languages teacher.
Elke Reinhuber is not your average artist, because she became a specialist on choice, decision making and counterfactual thoughts in media arts. Currently, Reinhuber teaches and researches at the School of Creative Media, CityU Hing Kong and is affiliated with the School of Art, Design and Media at NTU in Singapore. In her artistic practice, she investigates on the correlation between decisions and emotions and explores different strategies of visualisation and presentation, working with immersive environments, mixed reality, imaging technologies and performance. In addition, her alter ego, the ‘Urban Beautician’ is pursuing a life which Elke didn’t follow.
Anders Zanickowsky is an American artist and activist who uses platforms like Grindr and Instagram as actual sites for performances about desire, uncertainty, and vulnerability.

We are extremely proud to have recent supported affiliate Humans Without Borders.
This is for their 'Day at the Sea' event, held on the 5th of August 2015.
Below we include a description of the event. This is in the words of Human Without Borders:
"Yesterday, 5 August, Humans without Borders, with the support of Children of Peace took two busloads of Palestinian families to the Tel Baruch beach north of Tel Aviv. What is unique about these families is that each has at least one very sick child requiring intensive medical attention in an Israeli hospital. In all we took 57 children to the event – children under treatment, and brothers and sisters and about 30 parents. Several were unable to make the trip due to hospitalization or illness or the fact that we were unable to get them permits from the military government.
We put together a major support organization, of about a dozen Humans without Borders active volunteers and a few of their teenage children, 10 youngsters from the villages of Abu Gosh and Ein Rafa (west of Jerusalem), a half dozen students from the “Hand in Hand” bi-national school in Jerusalem, and a volunteer nurse. Since all these people are Arabic speakers. There interaction with the children was immediate and extremely positive. This was a major factor in the huge success of the day.
The meeting points were two Israeli military checkpoints – Bethlehem (south of Jerusalem) and Kalandia (north of the city). The excitement was amazing. We set the departure time at 9:00 AM but the first call I received was at 7:30 from a family from Jenin (2 and a half hours north of the checkpoint) that they had already arrived at Kalandia. As soon as the buses arrived, the families were onboard and ready to go.
The Tel Baruch beach is a magnificent location with a breakwater and massive stretches of sparkling sand. Dana Cohen, the Humans without Borders volunteer who managed the event, arrived early in the morning and set up 24 beach umbrellas to provide shade for the families. We called it a Palestinian settlement in Israel!
It was quite amazing to see the reaction of many of the parents who had never seen the sea until yesterday. They were simply stunned by the expanses and the distant, unending horizon. This is exactly as one woman described it to me.
The kids were in the water before we could get them coated in screen block and, after a bit of convincing, the parents followed. From a social and traditional perspective it was fascinating to see how fully-clothed Palestinian women enjoyed themselves as much as Israeli girls in bikinis. Everyone was frolicking in the water. We brought along, tubes, balls, pails and shovels and such so the only thing the kids complained about was when we pulled them out of the water to eat.
Dana brought along a selection of baked goods for breakfast and tons of watermelon and we had ice pops (popsicles where I grew up) to make sure they were getting sufficient fluids.
Lunch was delivered by a woman from Jaffa who prepares traditional Palestinian food. It was delicious and nothing remained except for empty containers.
It was a very hot day, in spite of the fact that the temperatures had dropped from around 40C to about 33C. It was crucial that we consider the time the children would be exposed to the sun. Thus we vetoed several of our initial ideas such as a boat trip or a kite project. It was simply too dangerous to have them in the fierce sun for so many hours.
At about 3:30 PM we called it a day – much to the chagrin of several of the boys. Everyone showered in fresh-water showers on the beach and we were on our way back to a much harsher reality.
This event could not have been possible without the generous support of Children of Peace. Many people – Israelis, Palestinians and even a Dutch couple – asked just what your logo was doing on the shirts and I explained what our organizations do and the support you provided for the day at the beach."
