As I mentioned to you all in class today, on Saturday I attended the Ana G Mendez Congreso Educativo held at the Convention Center Sheraton, and the main presentation was by Ignacio Pen~a from the Berklee School of Music in Boston (a very prestigious music school). The presentation was called El Gran Debate del Planeta Tierra (see their website at http://www.elgrandebatedelplanteatierra.com/ .
The group performed their music live (and it was really good) with three giant video screens behind them -- all showing different images at times -- and many times each screen had many images. It also presented scientific information about global warming and what needs to be done. So in this hyper-multimedia format they presented well-researched scientific information. They said it took them 3 years to research, create and edit the content. I do not know what app they made it in -- but they embedded video, music, graphics, and texts from many published sources like documentary films such as An Inconvenient Truth.
In any case -- I found the presentation very relevant to our class project - and felt inspired by their work.
I found this clip on the group on YouTube -- check it out:
It`s the reallity of what the world is going thru,is a god question;In 40yrs is there gona be any petrolium an d how much will it cost ?maybe my son can tellme when he gest there ,in the meantime i will try to save as much energy as possible.
ReplyDeleteIt is a fact! the petrolium is reaching its end and its getting more expensive. We need to find another way to produce energy instead of petrolium. It will be perfect if we can find a way to produce energy in a natural way that don't produce deterioration og the atmosphere and worse the global warming.
