« Écrire. Lire. Vivre. » Composante majeure de la Bibliothèque de Québec, la Maison de la littérature est un concept unique en Amérique du Nord : un lieu de création, d'animation et de diffusion vouée à la littérature et à l'écriture. La Maison de la littérature est un espace de rencontre entre les citoyens, les écrivains et les créateurs en arts littéraires. Aménagée dans l'ancien temple Wesley, elle a fait l'objet d'une audacieuse transformation architecturale.

Natchez Trace Parkway, Mississippi

"At milepost 15.5 on the Natchez Trace Parkway is one of the most significant historic sites in Mississippi. Originally constructed as an inn or "stand" on the historic Natchez Trace, Mount Locust offers visitors a chance to step back through time to the days when the "Kaintucks" used the old Trace as a primary route of transportation.
The historic home, now maintained and preserved by the National Park Service, was begun in 1780 by an early settler named John Blommart. The leader of a failed rebellion against the Spanish, who then controlled the Mississippi Valley, Blommart lost the home and the rest of his fortune. It was then taken over by his former business partner, who carved a plantation from the wilderness and made Mount Locust a fixture for travelers on the Natchez Trace.
In the early days of American expansion, farmers and other entrepreneurs carried their products down the Mississippi River on flatboats. Although they were from places besides Kentucky, these individuals became known as "Kaintucks." After selling their goods in New Orleans and Natchez, they would walk or ride horses back home via the Natchez Trace, which connected Natchez with Nashville.
Mount Locust lay about a day's walk from Natchez, and so developed as a popular "stand" on the historic road. Travelers would stop here for a meal and lodging, readily available for a price of 25 cents.
The development of steamboats soon brought most traffic on the Trace to an end. The paddlewheel boats could travel up the Mississippi as well as down, enabling travelers to get back home easily by water. Foot travel on the Natchez Trace had all but ended by 1825, but Mount Locust remained in operation first as an inn and finally as the center of a prosperous cotton plantation. Five generations of the Chamberlain family lived in the house, the last leaving in 1944.
The National Park Service acquired the Mount Locust property at the time of the creation of the Natchez Trace Parkway. The historic home has been restored to its 1820 appearance and walking paths lead through the grounds past such historic sites as the brick kiln, family cemetery, slave cemetery and sites of plantation structures such as the slave quarters and overseer's house.
The National Park Service uses the site to interpret life along the old Trace for both white travelers and enslaved African American laborers."

Stills from Traces a software performance by Pamela Lee Brenner and Johannes Muljana at Fraser Studios open day 2011
Every time I go back to my grandparents house, it seems frozen in time. My grandpa's recliner still sits in the living room, the old exercise bike gathers dust against the window, the same pink tiling decorates the upstairs bathroom. Yet pieces have changed and continue to change- proof of the people that still live there. Traces of them left about.
i'm guessing that this bunker is from thee con thien firebase (i'm looking at a map that has the bases marked and i know it was somewhere around there).
in any case, this bunker was part of the macnamara line that traced the southern edge of the border and was intended north vietnamese supplies to reach the VC in the south. it was a nice idea, but it didn't work. the bunker had a bunch of blast marks on it, but was mostly intact.
next to the bunker, on the left are mikkel and sophia (sophia is in some earlier photos in the set), the danish couple i met in halong bay and who i kept meeting throughout my vietnam trip. they were on the DMZ tour with me.

Tracing the area of a mobile phone is made easy and also free of cost with a reverse cellular phone lookup. The reason it is free of cost contrasts a cellular phone manager's title and address, which is considered personal and could not be exposed with a free of cost lookup due to the fact that there is no general public directory for cellphones; the site of a contact number is basic know-how.

Trace was a project I had to do last year. I worked together with Iris Wijckmans. We had to study a place called Langerbrugge, next to Gent in Belgium. We had to do something (audio, video, photos,...)with the place and we could choose our own subject, the only rule was that it has to be associated with the place. Iris and I where intrigued by the electricity poles (and there where a lot of them). we fantasized that the hole place was filled with electricity poles, so we made pictures of the site and in photoshop we multiplied the electricity poles so that we create a whole new world...
So this is the result. for the presentation we used 2 slide projectors (because the sounds represents the electricity).
