mobile în such way that all buttons that control ergonomics are within my reach. But that’s not the point, the idea is that I sit în this armchair, în a living room which I imagine aș a regular one, but if I want to be surrounded by a pine forest I press a button and all the room walls fills with pines swaying by the gentle blow of the wind and, eventually, I sense the smells of the forest.

action, it lasts for quite a long time and it is not something that protects you. The only real option is to leave the moment he first becomes violent, because nothing helps, you just have to get ouț of there. But women and mothers primarily think of their children and I think that most women accept it mainly because of that, because they have nowhere to go and nobody helps them the moment they need help, and not five months later

a professional fashion what I hâd to do, what I hâd to pay attention to, for example never to be în the most remote area of the house - they actually teach you how to react.

what was I supposed to do - knock on people’s doors în the middle of the night and scare them? You realize you cannot just rely on your friends and relatives, unless it is someone really, really close to you, but în that case very probably he knows them, too, and he will come for you, it’s not a good idea to go somewhere where he might find you.

G.A.P.: Capitale Europene ale culturii în contextul politicilor economice și culturale ale UE, care va apărea în octombrie.[:en]Marta Talacha În 2013, Marseilles became a European Capital of Culture - to the awe and discontent of other French cities, but to the joy of intermediaries and speculators în real estates. The second largest city after Paris, first în inequalities and social divisions, leading în poverty and its nearly 40% unemployment, the town hâș built its identity on a coexistence of

it a touristic postcard, the event of Marseille-Provence 2013, or the European Capital of Culture MP 2013, sealed the process of systemic expulsion of people from the downtown and of taking apart any authentic character this place used to have. But there was more. The MP 2013 organizers surprised all with their arrogance and disregard to the inhabitants, potential participants of that grand feast, pushing local artists and small associations aside, while implementing a policy of taking comfortable, and, above all

the party for? Your future is subject to market speculation I come across an article on Marseilles în Gazeta Wyborcza (31/10/2015, Tramwajem po Marsylii), saying it is nice and smooth, trams running fast on their rails, not blue but white, pure, untainted; speaking of "changes", of a new modern style creating a beautiful urban climate. A touch of authenticity is here, too - fishermen with their old boats! This is an openly touristic perspective, exactly what the team of city

The goal, however, was achieved: to add a stunning accessory to the urban space, to impress the outsider, but also the resident of one of the so-called better districts, desperate to seek the new.

recently built shopping centre "The Terraces of the Port" completely wrecked the historical aspect of the coastline around the port, and it took away any chance of creating a space for the inhabitants of the neighborhood, like a recreation area. But who cares about the inhabitants and their needs - this is where they need to be removed from. They are șo usual, neither businesspeople or hipsters, they don't always wear smart suits. Often they are migrants. They do not match

egg, who polishes it until it shines painfully. No flaws or fractures are allowed to be visible, never mention what might happen if you broke the egg and saw if the yolk is not black. It is not only risky, but exposing for some painful all-european tendencies. Cities are to serve the upper middle class, cleared of unphotogenic industrial workers, the unemployed, or - what would be worse - migrants of various backgrounds.

The poorer residents are visible, they form the heart of the city, and the bustling exotic marketplace is a spot, not only for everyday shopping, but also for meeting a neighbour or a coffee chat.

the drug trade, silently allowed to thrive by the ruling elite; it is this business which produces victims, downtown shootings and a dozen of spectacular murders each year. Those criminal actions did not originate în mosques or any other churches, but în rows of housing blocks, rejected and forgotten by the system. Sending police squads to cités is nothing but a fake measure of managing a still escalating problem. On a similar note, repressions create a more and more police-state society

Sending police squads to cités is nothing but a fake measure of managing a still escalating problem. On a similar note, repressions create a more and more police-state society, with omnipresent cameras, regular controls and politicians, who make no secret of "clearing certain districts".

are under close surveillance, targeted by cameras. În the context of MP2013, the city hâș completely forgotten the presence of "culture" în the very word "multicultural". That culture is inherently bound with absolute freedom: of creation, of thought, of emotions, but also of the society. That culture includes respect to local traditions, to authenticity, and moreover, to the people themselves. The communities are what was absent, it was them who were not offered a freedom of action, or any factual cooperation

Minister of Culture, Auréli Filippetti, who was proposing a toast 500 metres away from the bar, by the Old Port, gifted the burgeois with a Pandora box: 900 events, 10 million spectators, many good plays, wonderful exhibitions and artistic installations. But, coupled with that, a number of tiny scandals, magic financial tricks, political-economical blackmails, related to the lack of an adequate coordination between the organizers. Apart from that, lots of confetti and baloons, losing air right after the party. It was

To enter the house and the kitchen you would pass through a hallway. I remember a bright room, very big and beautiful. I also recall the bathroom where I was once given a beating. The courtyard was not well kept but big. There was an old walnut there în which I joyfully used to climb. În this house we first lived on the upper floor and after one year we moved to the ground one. We spent two years în this
