The Sacred Relic of the tooth of Buddha (Buddh-dantya) is venerated in Sri Lanka as a relic of the founder of Buddhism.
The relic in India
According to Sri Lankan legends, when the Buddha died, his body was cremated in a sandalwood pyre at Kusinara in India and his left canine tooth was retrieved from the funeral pyre by Arahat Khema. Khema then gave it to King Brahmadatte for veneration. It became a royal possession in Brahmadatte's country and was kept in the city of Dantapuri (present day Puri in Orissa).
A belief grew that whoever possessed the Sacred Tooth Relic had a divine right to rule that land. Wars were fought to take possession of the relic. 800 years after the Buddha's death, in the 4th century CE, the tooth came into the possession of King Guhaseeva of Kalinga, which roughly corresponds to the present day state of Orissa.
Kalinga had become a Buddhist and begun to worship the Sacred Tooth relic. This caused discontent among some of the citizens, who went to King Paandu and said that King Guhaseeva had stopped believing in god and that he had started to worship a tooth.
King Paandu decided to destroy the relic, and ordered to it brought to the city. It is said that, as the tooth arrived at the city, a miracle occurred, and King Paandu converted to Buddhism.
When King Ksheeradara heard, he went with his army to attack Paandu in the city of Palalus. The invaders were defeated before reaching the city, and King Ksheeradara died.
A prince from the city of Udeni who had become a Buddhist came to worship the sacred tooth. King Guhaseeva was pleased with him, and let him marry his daughter. The prince was known as Dantha and the princess as Hemamala.
When they heard that King Ksheeradara had died in the war, his sons raised a large army to attack King Guhaseeva and destroy the relic. They entered the city, but King Guhaseeva secretly sent Dantha and Hemamala out of the city, with the relic.
The relic in Sri Lanka
The Temple of the Tooth Relic in Kandy, Sri Lanka
The tooth sanctuary
According to legend, Hemamali hid the relic in her hair ornament and the royal couple disguised themselves as Brahmins in order to avoid discovery. They set sail from Tamralipti, a port at the mouth of the river Ganges, and landed in Sri Lanka at the port of Lankapattana (now Ilankeiturei).
It is said that Sri Lanka was chosen as the new home for the tooth relic because the Lord Buddha had declared that his religion would be safe in Sri Lanka for 2,500 years.
At the time of Dantha's and Hemamali's arrival on the island, King Kirti Sri Megavanna or Kithsirimevan ruled Sri Lanka. The King was overjoyed when he heard the news and warmly welcomed the royal couple and received the Sacred Tooth Relic with great veneration. He built a beautiful palace within the Royal Palace Complex itself and enshrined the Relic in it. Thereafter, he ordered that an annual perahera be held in honour of the Sacred Relic.
As time went on, as the land was threatened with foreign invasions, the seat of the kingdom was moved from Anuradhapura to Polonnaruwa, then to Dambadeniya and other cities. Upon each change of capital, a new palace was built to enshrine the Relic. Finally, it was brought to Kandy where it is at present, in the Sri Dalada Maligawa temple.
The Sacred Tooth Relic came to be regarded as a symbolic representation of the living Buddha and it is on this basis that there grew up a series of offerings, rituals, and ceremonies. These are conducted under the supervision of the two Mahanayake Theros of Malwatte, Asgiriya Chapters, and Diyawadana Nilame of the Maligawa. These have a hierarchy of officials and temple functionaries to perform the services and rituals.
Other tooth relics
Aside from this specific tooth relic, another relic of the tooth of the Buddha is currently in Lingguang Temple in Badachu, Beijing, China.Fo Guang Shan monastery in Kaohsiung, Taiwan,the reliquary hall (shariden) of Engaku-ji in Kamakura, Japan,[4] and the Buddha Relic Tooth Temple in Chinatown, Singapore are all also reputed to each contain a tooth of the Buddha
The Topkapı Palace is a large palace in Istanbul that was the primary residence of the Ottoman Sultans for approximately 400 years (1465-1856) of their 624-year reign.
The Imperial Harem (Harem-i Hümayûn) occupied one of the sections of the private apartments of the sultan; it contained more than 400 rooms. The harem was home to the sultan's mother, the Valide Sultan; the concubines and wives of the sultan; and the rest of his family, including children; and their servants. The harem consists of a series of buildings and structures, connected through hallways and courtyards. Every service team and hierarchical group residing in the harem had its own living space clustered around a courtyard. The number of rooms is not determined, with probably over 100, of which only a few are open to the public. These apartments (Daires) were occupied respectively by the harem eunuchs, the Chief Harem Eunuch (Darüssaade Ağası), the concubines, the queen mother, the sultan's consorts, the princes and the favourites. There was no trespassing beyond the gates of the harem, except for the sultan, the queen mother, the sultan's consorts and favourites, the princes and the concubines as well as the eunuchs guarding the harem. The harem wing was only added at the end of the 16th century. Many of the rooms and features in the Harem were designed by Mimar Sinan. The harem section opens into the Second Courtyard (Divan Meydanı), which the Gate of Carriages (Arabalar Kapısı) also opens to. The structures expanded over time towards the Golden Horn side and evolved into a huge complex. The buildings added to this complex from its initial date of construction in the 15th century until the early 19th century capture the stylistic development of palace design and decoration. Parts of the harem were redecorated under the sultans Mahmud I and Osman III in an Italian-inspired Ottoman Baroque style. These decorations contrast with those of the Ottoman classical age [Wikipedia.org]

Disregard email drafts, notes applications and daily agenda administrators: Taskade does all that and the sky is the limit from there
All that I have to keep my life running is put away on the web. Some place. I can't discover it.
I'm discussing all the record numbers, meeting notes, daily agendas, contact data and section drafts I have to see each day. Additionally the plans I need to cook, wines I have to attempt, and YouTube recordings I should watch. A portion of that stuff lives in my email inbox, and some in Google Docs. At that point there are my Pinterest sheets, incidental bookmarks and the Evernote account I can never compose lucidly.
In principle, the web makes it simpler than any time in recent memory to keep all that I need a couple of taps away. Actually, the web has a method of dividing our lives. It resembles I composed everything in a journal and afterward become inebriated, tore out each page and shrouded them in better places around my home.
Taskade makes an extraordinary device for easy plans for the day, and you can utilize photographs, emoticons and stock workmanship to tidy them up.

In the course of recent weeks, an application called Taskade has helped me transform mayhem into request. Taskade joins huge numbers of the best highlights of Google Docs, Excel and Dropbox, alongside heaps of assignment the executives and hierarchical instruments. Taskade Labs Chief Executive Ivan Zhao depicts the item as "the up and coming age of Microsoft Office," which is a little hyperbolic and a ton aspiring. However, it is the best life-association device I've attempted.
Taskade consolidates the highlights of a note-taking application, an assignment the executives application and a spreadsheet device the way that Steve Jobs joined an iPod, a cellphone and an internet browser into the iPhone: All these devices cooperate to make something more than its parts.
I should make reference to that Taskade is genuinely costly: It has a restricted complementary plan, and expenses $8 every month for hefty use. All things considered, it may pay for itself in the applications it replaces, and I've discovered it effectively worth the expense.
I presently have a page with all my carrier and lodging faithfulness numbers in a bulleted list, over a photograph of my dental protection card and an installed map with bearings to my dental specialist's office. I made information bases with all the films, books, TV shows, and YouTube recordings I have to get to—every cell opens to a rich archive with my notes and considerations. Taskade has all the meetings, research material and frameworks for my segments. I'm getting hitched soon and am gazing intently at my marital daily agenda consistently.
One of Taskade's most up to date includes is an information base apparatus, which you can see as a table, a schedule and that's only the tip of the iceberg.

I used to require five separate applications to keep so much stuff straight. Presently it's all in Taskade, a couple of snaps or a basic pursuit away.
Square by Block
It may be simpler to consider Taskade a super-straightforward web designer than a profitability application.
At the point when you open another page in the application, you're truly making a clear matrix onto which you can put and organize pretty much anything. The application's fundamental component is the square, which could be a passage of text, a bulleted list, a table, a picture, a code piece, a YouTube video, a PDF and that's only the tip of the iceberg. You embed blocks with a tap or console alternate way, and afterward reorder and sort out these however much you might want. You can without much of a stretch change the idea of a square, as well. For example, you can choose a lot of text and transform it into a daily agenda.
Taskade's essential component is the square, which takes numerous structures: text, joins, pictures, bookmarks and that's only the tip of the iceberg.

Taskade resembles chess: simple to learn, hard to ace. The application itself looks genuinely natural, with a sidebar on the left and your open page on the right. It has a couple of stylish comforts, similar to the alternative to add a spread photograph to the head of any page.
At the point when you first open the application, however, it doesn't do what's necessary to assist you with understanding all that it can do. Even following quite a while of utilizing Taskade every day, I'm just currently making sense of the most proficient approaches to get things done while attempting to abstain from settling on awful design choices. Do I truly require a full-page photograph inside my daily agenda? My recommendation: Make weighty utilization of Taskade's layouts, since they help you spread out pages and show what the application's prepared to do.
There are local Taskade applications for Windows, Mac and iOS. Mr. Zhao says an Android application ought to be accessible inside weeks. The web application works wonderfully on work area and portable, as well, and it's precisely the same experience regardless of which stage you're utilizing.
Taskade is exceptionally reliant on web network. It works disconnected uniquely with pages you've opened as of late while associated—which implies everything you can do is cross your fingers each time you open Taskade on a plane. On the upside, you can implant tweets and YouTube recordings, even whole website pages, inside a Taskade report.

In spite of the fact that I use Taskade to keep steady over my own work and life (and you ought to as well), Taskade is intended for business groups. It offers communitarian altering, inline remarks and valuable devices for overseeing consents and allocating undertakings. In the event that you utilize Slack, you can get cautions each time somebody remarks on or changes a Taskade archive. Is anything but a substitute for Slack or Salesforce, however it can supplant a significant number of the apparatuses endless organizations use to store and offer data.
All in one resource
Matt Galligan, organizer of the Picks and Shovels Co., a digital money administrations startup, offered a valuable representation for Taskade. He says utilizing the application is much the same as shopping on Amazon. Previously, "stores specific," he stated, "and they worked admirably." Then Amazon went along and accumulated everything. It perhaps wasn't the best store for any single thing, yet the one-stop comfort made it brilliant.
That is simply it: Taskade isn't as ground-breaking a spreadsheet device as Excel, and it doesn't have a portion of the errand the board highlights I need—when an undertaking is expected, I might want an alarm, for example. (Taskade says that is coming.) Yet the application has helped me shave the spots I hold stuff down to only two. I can't prevent email from coming in; I can put everything else in Taskade.

There's parcels left for the Taskade group to do, obviously. Notwithstanding task updates, it's additionally taking a shot at schedule sync, PowerPoint-style introduction includes, a web trimmer, better disconnected help and that Android application. It's additionally wanting to help administrations, for example, Zapier and If This Then That (IFTTT), which help move information between applications. In any case, it as of now accomplishes more than any of its rivals.
For quite a long time, I've bobbed around different note-taking applications and efficiency devices, never entirely upbeat. Evernote makes it simple to catch data, yet I never preferred the interface. Google Docs and Keep don't offer enough highlights. Trello, Asana and other task the board programming don't work for note taking.
Taskade wires the best of each—and others—into an uncommon renaissance application, capable in endless techniques for creation and association. I can't put a cost on the true serenity that originates from an unfragmented life. Pause, yes I can: It's eight bucks every month.

Street Talks
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.

Hierarchy of Interface for Tabletop Games as observed by John Stavropoulos
TOOLS
The actual components of play, like character sheets, cheat sheets, boards and bits.
TEXT
The actual documented rules and how they are presented, including exact wording, procedures and game terms.
RULES
The parameters of play as best recalled by the players. Less formal than text, but more formal than the basic design intent.
INTENT
The assumptions of how a game would be played, often expressed directly by the designer with minimal formal documentation.
Source:
“This is why I feel game interfaces (character sheets, cheat sheets) are more important than rules text and rules text is more important than rules and rules are more important than design intent when it comes to actual play... we generally can’t assume players will read the rules, that GMs won’t remember more than 5-7 distinct pieces of information at a time without reference, and if we don’t provide teaching tools, that the game will be taught correctly.”

had these old mattresses sitting outside my house, to be thrown away, and I knew I had to do something eccentric! Its almost the reverse of this photo shot from the window I was posing in.

I'm VERY behind on putting them together, so I will have to spend a day doing that XD
Today, the story of Lincoln being born in a log cabin, while true, conveys a humble upbringing in a poor, struggling family. However, at the time of his birth, Lincoln’s father, Thomas, was one of the richest men in the county. He owned 600 acres, numerous livestock and horses as well as several lots in town. This changed in 1816 when Lincoln was seven. Due to faulty titles on the land, his family lost everything. They went from the top of the financial hierarchy in the county to the bottom.
Without prospects in Kentucky, the family moved to Indiana. This too proved to be difficult. When Lincoln was nine, his mother died of milk sickness (caused by consuming toxic dairy products). His father remarried the following year. It was his stepmother, Sarah, who encouraged his desire to read and learn. At six foot four inches, Lincoln almost touched the ceiling in the small farmhouse. Sarah joked that he was so tall that he would leave footprints on the ceiling. One day while she was away he had some of the local school boys dip their feet in mud and held them upside down so they could make footprints on the ceiling. As Lincoln put it, "took a broom to my head, but I could tell she was very amused by it." When Lincoln was 21, another outbreak of milk sickness affected their homestead in Indiana and the family moved again, this time to Illinois.
Lincoln left his father’s home the following year and began work in New Salem, Illinois. During this time he took a load of goods for sale down local waterways to the Mississippi and on to New Orleans. Once there, he sold the goods and walked all the way back to New Salem. Perhaps because of this trip he later (at age 40) received a patent (the only one for a president) for an invention that would allow stranded boats to lift themselves off of a reef or shoal and back to deeper water.
Lincoln had probably no more than 18 months of formal education. When he was 23, Lincoln decided to run for office. While able to draw crowds, he was unable to support the campaign financially and lost. That same year he joined the militia and served as a Captain during the Black Hawk War. Two years later he won a seat in the state legislature and two years after that passed the bar in Illinois. When asked how he studied for the bar he replied: "I studied with nobody".
He became engaged to Mary Todd in 1840 with the wedding set for New Year’s Day, 1841. As the date approached the couple separated and was finally married in November 1842. While preparing for marriage a second time, he was asked where he was going, "To hell, I suppose." Once married the Lincoln’s enjoyed their family and raised four boys. Sadly, only one would live beyond age 18.
For sixteen years, Lincoln honed his analytical skills as he travelled Illinois as a prairie lawyer representing clients around the state. In 1857, Lincoln took a case that propelled him onto the national stage. Lincoln represented a railroad that had built a bridge over the Mississippi. A steamboat had collided with the bridge. A suit was filed stating that the bridge was a hazard to river navigation and that a tunnel or suspension bridge should replace it. Lincoln argued that a tunnel was too expensive and that regardless of height, a steamship would be built that exceeded that height. In his conclusion he reminded the jurors that a person has as much right to sail up and down a river as to cross it. In a display of showmanship, he concluded that no less than the fate of western civilization was at stake!
While that trial ended in a hung jury, the argument continued for many years eventually reaching the Supreme Court twice during and after the war. Ultimately the Court agreed with Lincoln and while upgraded and replaced over the years, the bridge remains in use today as a highway bridge for automotive traffic.
It was not until a few years later that Lincoln grew the beard we remember him for today. He cultivated it a month before the election of 1860 at the suggestion of eleven year old Grace Bedell. She thought he would be more electable with a beard because "your face is so thin". In his response he wrote: “…As to the whiskers, having never worn any, do you not think people would call it a piece of silly affection if I were to begin it now?” Soon after, the bearded Lincoln would enter the White House and take his place in history.

The Imperial Harem (Turkish, Harem-i Hümâyûn) of the Ottoman Empire (1299-1923) was one of the most important elements of the Ottoman court. The Imperial Harem (Harem-i Hümayûn) occupied one of the sections of the private apartments of the sultan; it contained more than 400 rooms. The harem was home to the sultan's mother, the Valide Sultan; the concubines and wives of the sultan; and the rest of his family, including children; and their servants. The harem consists of a series of buildings and structures, connected through hallways and courtyards. Every service team and hierarchical group residing in the harem had its own living space clustered around a courtyard. The number of rooms is not determined, with probably over 100,[76] of which only a few are open to the public. These apartments (Daires) were occupied respectively by the harem eunuchs, the Chief Harem Eunuch (Darüssaade Ağası), the concubines, the queen mother, the sultan's consorts, the princes and the favourites.

I had to delete original and process scan again. It was just plain and gray.

I wanted to incorporate the banderitas used in the original poster, but in a different way. I stylized the text by adding drop shadows.
Charles Pertusier (1779-1836) was an officer of the Horse Artillery Regiment of the Imperial Guard. After completing his studies at the École Polytechnique of France, he was sent to Venetian Dalmatia and served as officer of the artillery. In Dalmatia, Pertusier was able to study the local antiquities. He stayed in Istanbul from 1812 to the fall of Napoleon, as military attaché to French ambassador A. Fr. Andréossy. After the Restauration, Pertusier ascended the ranks of the military hierarchy. He was also a fellow of the Societé Géographique of Paris and the Academy of Sciences of Besançon, and a holder of the Légion d'Honneur.
Apart from his remarkable work on Istanbul and its environs, Pertusier composed literary works and political and military studies on the regions adjacent to the Adriatic sea. His description of Istanbul is divided into walks to the monuments and sights of the city. Pertusier includes a wealth on information on the monuments as well as on the religious and ethnic groups which coexisted in the Ottoman capital (by dedicating, for example, several chapters to Phanariot Greeks). His work is one of the most remarkable editions on early 19th century Istanbul.
The Atlas to the text includes plates showing monuments and views of Istanbul. The exquisite engravings are the work of Piringer, while the drawings were made by famous painter, draughtsman and architect M. Fr. Préaulx. Préaulx lived in Istanbul from 1796 to 1827 and worked for several other Western European travellers such as Th. Hope, Lord Elgin, Ed. D. Clarke and Fr. Andréossy. Thus, his drawings illustrate a great number of travel accounts.

Kraliyet süvari muhafız birliğinde subay olan Charles Pertusier (1779-1836) (okunuş: Şarl Pertüzie) Fransa'nın teknik üniversitesinden (École plytechnique) mezun olduktan sonra topçu birliği subayı olarak Dalmaçya'nın Venedik hakimiyetinde olan kısmına gönderilir. Görevi süresince buradaki arkeolojik anıtları da inceler. Pertusier, 1812 yılından Napolyon'un düşüşüne dek, Fransa elçisi A. Fr. d'Andréossy'nin askerî ataşesi olarak İstanbul'da yaşar. Restorasyon'dan sonra askerî yönetim hiyerarşisinde yüksek mertebelere varır. Pertusier Paris'teki coğrafya cemiyetinin (Société de géographie) üyesiydi. Besançon (okunuş: Bezanson) şehri bilimler akademisi (Académie des sciences de Besançon) üyeliğine seçilmiş ve Legion d' Honneur subayı nişanına sahip olmuştu.
İstanbul ve çevresiyle ilgili son derece ilginç eserinden başka, Pertusier, çeşitli edebiyat eserleri ve Adriyatik denizi etrafındaki yörelerle ilgili siyasal ve askerî içerikli eserler yazmıştır. İstanbul hakkında yazdıklarını, ünlü kentin anıt ve görülmeğe değer yerlerinde yaptığı "geziler" olarak bölümlere ayırmakta. İstanbul kentinin 19. yüzyıl başındaki durumu hakkında yazılmış en ilginç kitaplardan biri olan bu eserde Osmanlı başkentinin hem anıtları hem de burada bir arada yaşayan çeşitli etnik ve farklı dinlere mensup cemaatler hakkında sayısız bilgiler aktarılmaktadır. Nitekim kitapta Fener semtinde yaşayan Rumlar'a ilişkin uzun bölümler yer almaktadır.
Metne eşlik eden "Atlas" eki, İstanbul anıtlarını ve çeşitli manzaralar gösteren tablolardan oluşmaktadır. Gravürlerin üstün kaliteli nakşı Piringer tarafından, çizimler ise tanınmış ressam çizer ve mimar M.Fr. Préaulx tarafından yapılmıştır. Préaulx (okunuş: Preol) 1796'dan 1827'ye dek İstanbul'da kalıp Pertusier'den başka Th. Hope, Lord Elgin, Ed.D. Clarke, Fr. Andréossy gibi birçok batılı gezgin hesabına çalışmıştır.

We were asked to make a re-design of the poster of last year's Fine Arts Festival. This poster aims to inform its viewers easily through the use of hierarchy of elements. The information of all events is enclosed in the blue and yellow banderitas so that it may emphasize the information despite it's small size relative to the title of the main event (Kalinangan).

The logo basically reminded me of the boats and weavings in Mindanao, so I decided to go for that. This is the revision of my previous work on the subject. Hopefully, it looks practical.

SALAMPASU (ASALAMPASU, BASALAMPASU, MPASU)
Democratic Republic of the Congo
The 60,000 Salampasu people live east of the Kasai River, on the frontier between the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Angola. Their name is said to mean “hunters of locusts”, but they were widely viewed with terror by adjacent groups. They maintain strong commercial and cultural relations with their southern neighbors, the Chokwe and the Lunda, to whom they pay tribute. The Salampasu are homogeneous people governed by territorial chiefs, who supervise village chiefs. Their hierarchical power structure is counterbalanced by a warriors' society. A people with a reputation as fearless warriors, the Salampasu have retained the custom of a rough and primitive life. Warring and hunting are privileged occupations, but the women do some farming.
Salampasu masks were integral part of the warriors’ society whose primary task was to protect this small enclave against invasions by outside kingdoms. Boys were initiated into the warriors’ society through a circumcision camp, and then rose through its ranks by gaining access to a hierarchy of masks. Earning the right to wear a mask involved performing specific deeds and large payments of livestock, drink and other material goods. Once a man ‘owned’ the mask, other ‘owners’ taught this new member particular esoteric knowledge associated with it. The Salampasu use masks made from wood, crocheted raffia, and wood covered with sheets of copper. Famous Salampasu masks made for initiation purposes are characterized by a bulging forehead, slanted eyes, a triangular nose and a rectangular mouth displaying intimidating set of teeth. The heads are often covered with bamboo or raffia or rattan-like decorations. Presented in a progressive order to future initiates, they symbolize the three levels of the society: hunters, warriors, and the chief. Certain masks provoke such terror that women and children flee the village when they hear the mask's name pronounced for fear they will die on the spot. Wooden masks covered or not covered with copper sheets are worn by members of the ibuku warrior association who have killed in battle. The masks made of plaited raffia fiber are used by the idangani association. Throughout the southern savannah region copper was a prerogative of leadership, used to legitimize a person’s or a group’s control of the majority of the people. Possessing many masks indicated not only wealth but also knowledge. Filing teeth making part of many wooden masks was part of the initiation process for both boys and girls designed to demonstrate the novices’ strength and discipline. Salampasu masquerades were held in wooden enclosures decorated with anthropomorphic figures carved in relief. The costume, composed of animal skins, feathers, and fibers, is as important as the mask itself. It has been sacralized, and the spirit dwells within it. Masks are still being danced as part of male circumcision ceremonies.
In these times of world economic crisis, we may find ourselves examining our more basic requirements as theorized by Abraham Maslow in his "hierarchy of needs".
Shivalaya | Badami | Karnataka | India | Dec | 2008
The capital of the Early Chalukyas, Badami is picturesquely situated at the mouth of a ravine between two rocky hills. Badami is famous for its four cave temples - all hewn out of sand stone on the precipice of a hill. The temples dates back to 6th-8th century.
This picturesque location has been used by Mani Ratnam in numerous scenes in his famous film "Guru"(2007)
