GENESI EXPOSITION - SEBASTIÃO SALGADO

This summer I went to a Caixa Forum's photo exposition in Lleida. It's called Genesi and is a work by Sebastião Salgado, who is a 72-year-old brasilian photojournalist winner of several awards. 

This project is based on landscapes, animals, people that represent the origin of our world and its evolution before the modern life. It's all compound of black and white photos. That's because he believes that this way the photos don't depend on the age when they were taken, so it helps to represent the ancient ages.

I liked it very much because the quality of the pictures is amazing, as well as their content. Also, I find the project interesting because it shows things and people that we can't see in our everyday.

EXPERIMENTS ARE FUN!

Then dunk the brush in the lemon juice:

And start writing your secret message. At first you'll be able to see it because it will be wet, but then it's going to dry up.

Once the paper has dried up it will look like this:

Finally, when you want to see the text you have to get the paper close to a stove or another heating source and the text will start to appear:

This is our secret message!

My Film Review

SPIDER-MAN

Peter Parker is a boy whose parents died so he is living with his uncle and aunt. Peter studies in the same high school as M.J. Watson, the girl-next-door who he fell in love with in 6^th grade.

During a science guided visit in a laboratory, a genetically modified Super Spider bit Peter’s hand. After that, he started having a few changes in his body: he didn’t need glasses anymore, he developed muscles, he could throw some organic spider webs and he could climb walls very fast. To impress M.J. he started wrestling to make some money and buy a car. While he’s fighting, a robber pretending to carjack murdered his uncle. Because of that and remembering the words of his uncle “with great power comes great responsibility” decided to help the citizens of New York.

At the same time, Norman Osborn, his best friend’s father, while trying a nanotechnology experiment, he drank a serum that created an evil and irrational split personality. He started to threaten the New York citizens, becoming the main opponent of Spider-man, and they called him the Green Goblin after his aspect.

Then the Green Goblin goes for the weak point of Spider-man, his heart, so he decides to attack his beloved aunt and Mary Jane. Spider-man fights with all his strength to prevent that but, although he gets to finish him, he thinks it’s better to keep the distance with his loved ones. For this reason, when Mary Jane shows her love to Peter Parker, he says that he sees her only as a friend.

She’s a 700-year-old woman. She’s short and very fat. She always wears a grey printed dress, a purple headdress, and a big grey pointed hat. She also needs glasses and has long nails. She always counts on his purple assistant, The Owl. She carries her magic broom everywhere and often flies on it – usually it stalls.

She’s always bored so she has bad mood and is a bit troublemaker, but deeply in her heart she’s not evil.

She was a bad babysitter because she put her children in danger and she killed some. When last seen, she was punishing The triplets.

For this reason the police is looking for her and would like some help.
