and a thought :

Years ago, a great many young women would step in front of my camera entirely of their own free will. Because they wanted to capture their youthful beauty in an artistic way. Because they enjoyed it, because it made them feel stronger, for all sorts of personal reasons.

I’m not really searching for anything anymore, but I also think the whole picture has changed now. With the rise of sites like Insta, the everyday selfie, complete with all sorts of filters, has taken over. Insta is all about instant fame and self-affirmation. You don’t need someone else’s perspective on yourself (e.g. a photographer); you decide your own image and become a commercial ‘like’ product.

Code suggestions now consuming credits.

The bubble pop edges closer.

When the bill comes in and the true cost becomes apparent, will the executives realise the error of their ways or will they just drop it and pretend it never existed?

Or perhaps charge onwards towards the inevitable crash and burn…

Rechter tikt DUO op de vingers voor onzorgvuldig besluit over Iraanse student

Doe je langer dan tien jaar over je studie? Dan wordt je prestatiebeurs een lening. Maar persoonlijke omstandigheden moeten daarbij wel worden meegewogen. In het geval van een Iraanse student gebeurde dat onvoldoende, oordeelt de rechter. De student emigreerde vanuit Iran naar Nederland en begon in 2008 aan een opleiding aan de Hogeschool Rotterdam, waarvoor ze studiefinanciering ontving. Deze opleiding heeft ze uiteindelijk niet afgerond, maar later besloot ze een nieuwe hbo-opleiding te […]
