The Editorial Process at Charlie Hebdo

Charlie Hebdo, Before the Massacre from The New York Times - Video on Vimeo. I love this glimpse in to a Charlie Hebdo editorial meeting. I like that we see the creation of caricatures that are now so well known and familiar.

The Rescued Film Project

Undeveloped World War II Film Discovered from The Rescued Film Project on Vimeo. We all have a deep fascination for the past and photography gives us a window in to that past.

People love to submit portals and portals add excitement to Ingress. The more portals there are the busier you are. Cities are fantastic places for ingress players for this reason. Geneva, Barcelona, Neuchatel and other cities already have hundreds if not thousands of portals but go to the swiss countryside, the spanish sea side or away from big cities and portals are few and far between. As a result of this rural players don’t have much to do unless they get in a car and create megafields.

Vincent Cochetel speaking at TEDxPlaceDesNations

Vincent Cochetel gave a very good speech at TEDxPlaceDesNations in December. He received a standing ovation for it’s content. I was lucky enough to be in the audience on that day. In light of today’s events I believe that this is the right video to share.
