Child 9 Years Publishes Book: "How to Talk to Girls"

The work of this guy started as a project for school. After being photocopied and sold at a school fair, the publisher HarperCollins was interested in editing.
Alec Greven, a child of nine years, wrote a book titled "How to talk to the girls." This guy's work began as a creative project in their school of Castle Rock, Colorado, USA. The manuscript was photocopied and sold at a school fair to five dollars per unit and was a best seller.

A local newscast is interested in history and Alec was invited to a talk show. In this way the HarperCollins editorial noted the existence of this precocious talent, contacted him and closed with him, or rather with his parents, a publishing contract. Now your book can be purchased throughout the country in an edition of 46 pages hardcover.

As explained in the book, "The best option for most children is a common girl. Remember that some pretty girls have hearts of ice." It also notes that "it is easy to see pretty girls because they have steep slopes, elegant dresses and all the jewelry."

The writer's mother, Erin Greven, said Alec is an avid reader. "Lee nonstop. At lunchtime I have to say Pasha and that book!" He said.

"sell his mother to the highest bidder

artist mother also works Papeschi

Giovanna Papeschi Initially I was not convinced. A mother all slow to accept the idea that his son has decided to sell to the highest bidder. But in the end the prospect that he could "go into art history," according to phone Max Papeschi graphic artist, ended his doubts




Thus, on 9 April at the opening of the exhibition of his son Oops I did it again in the gallery Contemporary Renaissance Genoa (Italy), she will sit in a chair on a pedestal with a sign that will, as if a work either, its dimensions and materials of which it is made. The price? "It will be a negotiation booked, it is the mysterious Papeschi.

His early works were controversial photographic collages in which Mickey Mouse was accompanied with a giant swastika or the pope wore the head of Bart Simpson. Papeschi was the vision of a globalized world in which decisions are made by multinationals. " But now the artist's provocations have advanced light years. "I would be willing to sell even their mother just to have success, make money or whatever." It's a phrase we've all heard hundreds of times. I have only really decided to do, "said the Italian artist seriously.

Papeschi says he hopes to reach deals on everything from museums or foundations and are in millions of euros. For no one is left with empty hands, the operator has increased its provocation by six. Many are reproductions of his mother (six actresses) that also will sell, "because nowadays everything in contemporary art is reproducible, of all the works are seven or eight copies."

And what once acquired Mrs. Papeschi? "We signed a contract and it's yours, you take her wherever you want, provided you treat it. And let me go see her every two weeks," the Italian artist has fun. The package also includes a sort of survival kit that Mrs. easily get used to their new environment: family photos, blankets, books and his favorite food.

Out of paradox, the artist admits he wants to draw attention to "l as new generations of artists ito Ex-thirsty." And he, "about 40 y ear s" and only has two in the world of art, is not it possesses one of them? "No, because I came to this environment or chance p [e ra d irector and NIST gui or theater, his first painting was actually the fi manifest this in one of his works] and I will stay until no fun," responds . He also wants to focus on the reaction that the sale of his mother s cause in attending the exhibition. In fact, going to record visitors and is "curious" to know what visitors will ask.

Oops I did it again last until May 7 and will feature all photographic compositions that have made Papeschi establishment of a small hollow of notoriety, from the McDonald clown at the gate of Auschwitz to the Donald Duck in the midst of war Vietnam. Surely these same works have also gained an artist portfolio in the last two years has exhibited in Germany, India, Poland, UK, Switzerland and Sweden, though mostly in samples of group. However Papeschi dodge over and over questions about sales and the economic value of their creations. "It's like asking about his age to a lady", is shirking. At least his mother will come on April 9 on a placard. We must offer guarantees to the buyer.

The dream of all books, free, for all

16/05/11

PorROBERT Darnton. HISTORIAN, DIRECTOR OF THE LIBRARY OF HARVARD UNIVERSITY

said:

On Tuesday 22 March, Denny Chin, a federal judge in Manhattan, rejected the settlement between Google, which aims to digitize every book ever published to date, and a group of authors and publishers that had sued the company for violating copyright.

The ruling is a victory for the common good, as it prevents one company from monopolizing access to our common cultural heritage.
However, we should not give up the dream of Google to place all the world's books available to everyone. Instead, we should build a public digital library deliver these digital copies free to readers. Yes, many problems stand-legal, financial, technological, political. All can be resolved.

Chin invited Google and litigants to rewrite the agreement. But Google may well refuse to change their basic business strategy. That's why we need is an option, non-commercial public digital library.

A coalition of foundations could provide money and a coalition of research libraries could provide the books. The library of course respect the copyright and is likely to exclude works that are on sale now, unless their authors would facilitate them. Books include orphans, assuming the U.S. Congress passed laws to free for noncommercial use on a truly public library.

Delete this from quixotic would be to ignore digital projects that have proven their value and feasibility over the last twenty years.

All major research libraries have been scanned from their collections.

Large companies such as Knowledge Commons and the Internet Archive has digitized millions of books.

A number of countries are also determined to beat Google to scan the entire contents of their national libraries.

France plans to invest 750 million euros to digitize their cultural treasures, the National Library of the Netherlands is trying to digitize all books and periodicals published from 1470 Dutch, Australia, Finland and Norway are pursuing their own efforts.

Maybe Google itself could join the cause of public digital library. Have scanned about 15 million books.

Two million of that total are in the public domain and may be transferred to the library as the basis of the collection.
The company did not lose anything with your generosity and could earn admiration for his good deed.

With digital magic and sheer audacity, Google showed how we can transform the intellectual riches of our libraries, those books lying inert on their shelves unused. But only a public digital library will give readers what they need to meet the challenges of the XXI century: a vast collection of resources that can be exploited, for free, by anyone, anywhere, anytime.
