EVERYDAY RESISTANCE:
Kill Pill

Katarzyna Tórz

Mysterious side effects are catnip for the media, pharmacophobes, and pharmacophiles, as well as the pharmaceutical companies competing for our bodies and wallets

Sign the Petition!

John Biweekly

A call for more culture in EU’s cohesion policy!

Thanksgiving at OWS

Irena Grudzińska-Gross

I did not know how to refer to the people who stay there. Then I heard a speech by Michael Moore, and I learned what to call them: occupiers. The movement, he said, changed a lot of things, one of them being the meaning of the word ‘to occupy’

HALF A PAGE:Setting Aside the Independence Day March;
I See You

Joanna Tokarska-Bakir

Philadelphia has its own set of rules. You arrive at the crosswalk, make eye contact, and rest assured that the driver won’t slow down. Experts recommend not looking at the driver

THE ABC OF NEW CULTURE:
Y, Z as in CTRL+Y, CTRL+Z

Mirek Filiciak / Alek Tarkowski

Authors have predicted the demise of everything from books, television, the press, middlemen, and professional artists to politics, government, nation states, and even entire regions. But unexpected returns happen all the time

EVERYDAY RESISTANCE:
Saved by Coffee

Katarzyna Tórz

Good coffee doesn’t appear to matter as much in Poland. Like substantive discussions with neighbours, enjoying a leisurely cup of coffee at the nearest corner is a rare activity, one regarded as extravagance or even luxury

THE ABC OF NEW CULTURE:
X as in XXX

Mirek Filiciak / Alek Tarkowski

Internet porn is a delicate subject, but let’s try to examine it from an ‘outside the box’ perspective

HALF A PAGE:
A Persian Letter on Cultural Patterns

Joanna Tokarska-Bakir

Time is of the utmost importance; Americans accomplish more by making productive use of their time

THE ABC OF NEW CULTURE:
W as in Westernisation

Mirek Filiciak / Alek Tarkowski

The members of the Toruń underground obviously didn’t identify with hacker culture, but one would be hard pressed to find a better example of the creative use of technology in anti-systemic activity

CULTURE 2.0 – Media-Aware

John Biweekly

Today, one can hardly imagine an educational process ignoring the possibilities that arise from new media

EVERYDAY RESISTANCE:
Mommy! Mammon!

Katarzyna Tórz

Amidst a record lotto jackpot, news of growing poverty rates in Europe, and endless speculation about the peak price of the Swiss franc, a modest yet extraordinarily telling exhibition has sprung up in several cities across the country

AT A GLANCE:
Cocktails in the Shadow
of the Redeemer

Maria Poprzęcka

A struggle of ambitions has been going on over whether the Christ of Świebodzin is taller than his Brazilian counterpart. The Polish statue, even the added height of its golden crown, doesn’t stand a chance

SOMETHING OR OTHER:
Little Rebellions

Irena Grudzińska-Gross

Touching is what is needed. Memory doesn’t hold the map

THE ABC OF NEW CULTURE:
V as in Version

Mirek Filiciak / Alek Tarkowski

New culture, to an even greater extent than before, is a culture of versions. And it’s not just thanks to the term ‘culture 2.0’, although the label itself is not without meaning

HALF A PAGE:
Legia Apologises for Jedwabne

Joanna Tokarska-Bakir

Unconventional graffitti quickly goes down
