Video Game Addicts
We all have our favourite escapes, pastimes and fantasies to flee the nightmares that sometimes plague us. Some choose literature, drugs, sports, music or nature and some prefer TV or computer screens. For the last 5 years, my 25 year old cousin has chosen to live in a virtual world, which seems to [...]
Salvador Dali and the Media
History’s most extravagant painter who once declared “I am surrealism” was also modest enough to say that he loved publicity, and above all, that publicity loved him.

A bunker to survive the end of the world in 2012
Apocalyptic theories are reinvented every day. Some Spanish families, facing the potential end of the world announced by the Mayan calendar in 2012, have invested money in renting a collective bunker. The fear of death can lead to uncontrollable extremes.

Souvenir Hunting: Keychains or Panda Poop?
Surely you’ll have some souvenirs at home from your past holidays. A keychain of the Colosseum in Rome, a magnet from ‘mind the gap’ in London, a miniature Eiffel Tower from Paris… These are the typical, plastic junk, made in China and sold for exuberant prices in shabby tourist shops.
