first bogusmedia entry

Because I'm lazy, it took a while to start blogging in english. First of all, I wanted to practice in Dutch and second of all I wanted to find out what would be interesting for international readers and what for my local friends and admirers.
Right now I think there's a hige overlap but that's not a bad thing. Dutch readers will be able to read my rudimentary version of the English and still have their own corner where I blog about local stuff (my mother/street/food etc.). Whereas the English-reading visitors will have a brand-new source of news about whats going on in the world of new media and far beyond in Amsterdam and far beyond. The point is that almost half of my friends don't speak Dutch and most of them are avid internet users so now i include them in my audience. and audiences, off course, can't be big enough.
Here is a first picture in bogusmedia. Steve Shapiro, photographer and practitioner of old media, was in Amsterdam. When a foreigner comes to our town we dress up:

This is gallerist Wouter van Leeuwen with in the background my fiancée Ine Poppe. And here's the man himself, surrounded by well dressed locals:


Another happening was the exhibition curated by Dutch artist Arno Coenen. Theme: hardrock!

This new gallery is an offspring of an artist run art center in the east of the Netherlands -in Enschede- that is run by Viola and Kees: http://www.planetart.nl/
