CHANGE.WORLD: Cripto-monede. Istorie. Prezent. Viitor?
Să zicem că în 2010 ați fi avut șase cenți americani și ați fi dorit să-i investiți în piața financiară. Dacă ați fi fost extrem de bine informat, una dintre posibilitățile de investire a acestei sume ar fi fost cumpărarea … Continue reading

a study in drunkenness (Film: Withnail & I – Bruce Robinson, 1987)
‘Withnail & I‘ belongs to the category of those films in which I can appreciate many details, artistic and technical aspects, but whose watching is an unpleasant experience for me. It’s been two days since I saw the movie, that … Continue reading

nothing new about Vincent (Film: At Eternity’s Gate – Willem Dafoe, 2018)
I believe that Vincent van Gogh would have been very pleased if he could get some royalties from the films that were made about him. The “damned” artist of the generation of post-impressionists, the unrecognized genius who did not sell … Continue reading

unskilled robbers (Film: Bande à part – Jean-Luc Godard, 1964)
Jean-Luc Godard‘s films belong to a category of movies that are more interesting to talk about than to see. I do not want this statement to sound too pejorative, that’s not the intention, especially because I love the discussions about … Continue reading

teze și antiteze din Paris (Carte: George Banu – Scena lumii)
Nu l-am întâlnit niciodată pe George Banu. Traseul biografiei mele s-a apropiat însă cu vreo 55 de ani în urmă de al dânsului. Eram adolescent și părinții hotărâseră să-mi accelereze integrarea în lumea viitorului cu lecții particulare de engleză, suplimentând … Continue reading
surrealistic film noir (Film: Lost Highway – David Lynch, 1997)
‘Lost Highway‘ belongs to a category of movies that confuses many viewers, thrills many others, generates endless discussions and triggers extreme reactions. Welcome to the universe of most of David Lynch‘s films, a universe in which cinematic story telling and … Continue reading
