Photorealism is a genre of art that encompasses painting, drawing and other graphic media, in which an artist studies a photograph and then attempts to reproduce the image as realistically as possible in another medium. Although the term can be used broadly to describe artworks in many different media, it is also used to refer to a specific art movement of American painters that began in the late 1960s and early 1970s.

Slander is the bad talk about another. Specifically, it refers to lying slanderer that aims to harm someone in his honor, his good name or his prestige to others. There is then character murder. The lying claim itself is usually referred to as slander. Slander is also a criminal offense in Belgium and the Netherlands.. 

In the Netherlands, defamation is an aggravating form of defamation in which the slanderer knows that the accused fact is not true. If the perpetrator did not need to know that the accusation was contrary to the truth, or if the accusation is true, there can only be a defamation. In addition, slander and slander can damage the honor and good name. This can be taken against through civil law on the basis of the tort.

On the water

It is comprised of the New Dutch Waterline and the Defence Line of Amsterdam. Built between 1815 and 1940, the system consists of a network of forts, dikes, sluices, pumping stations, canals and inundation polders, working in concert to protect the Netherlands by applying the principle of temporary flooding of the land.

Nostalgia: early sound

 

2000: Introduction of the USB stick, with the first version containing 8 MB of memory. The MP3 player makes its debut. This effectively renders the physical audio medium obsolete, as the music is stored within the device itself rather than on a separate audio medium. 2001: Apple launches the first iPod media player. These feature a hard drive and can store much more data than the MP3 players of that era. 2006: Sony releases the last MiniDisc device to date. 2008: Sony and EMI announce they will cease production of CD singles in the coming year. 

 The Future Because the music industry was late in realizing that the future of the audio medium lies in downloading or streaming music, it has suffered significant losses and fallen behind in recent years. MP3 files, in particular, are widely available on the internet. It is expected that in the coming years, the physical audio medium as we know it today will be further displaced by these online technologies.

 Film theory is a set of scholarly approaches within the academic discipline of film or cinema studies that began in the 1920s by questioning the formal essential attributes of motion pictures; and that now provides conceptual frameworks for understanding film's relationship to reality, the other arts, individual viewers, and society at large

Dutch Light

'HOLLANDS LICHT is a documentary film about myth and reality of Dutch light. A film about light that has become famous thanks to painting. This can be found in the painted landscapes of painters such as Van Goyen and Van Ruisdael, in interiors and still lifes by Vermeer, Saenredam and Heda, and later in the work of artists such as Weissenbruch, Roelofs, Gabriël and Mondriaan. The myth is deeply rooted and wants light and perception to be the basis of a visual culture that is said to have emerged in the 17th century. But according to the German artist Joseph Beuys, that culture of looking would have come to an end in the middle of the 20th century. But is it????.

Dutch Gift

 

 

 ABOUT KLM BLUE DELFTS HOUSES / MINIATURES From 1952, these cabins have been given as gifts to passengers on board all KLM Intercontinental flights in business class. Each passenger baby or adult, paying or not paying one house. These original Delft blue miniature houses are real copies of the facade houses along the canals in Amsterdam and occasionally for a change also of other historic cities in the Netherlands. The content of KLM Miniatures is a large zip of the famous and unique Young Dutch Bols Jenever, distilled by the Bols distilleries.

Video Laser disc

 

LaserVision Protocols appeared as early as 1969, and a first unit was publicly demonstrated in 1972. Philips had been independently developing optical video recording in Eindhoven since 1970 and had been collaborating with DiscoVision since 1975. In 1976, the optical video disc was released on the American market in Atlanta. On all video discs, the image and sound were analog; however, on the Laserdisk discs manufactured after 1984, the sound was digitally encoded. The system became a commercial flop because Philips viewed itself as a hardware manufacturer and left the production of software (the discs) to third parties. Initially, they saw no potential in the new system, so players entered the market but no discs. Moreover, it was a disadvantage that video discs were not yet offered for rent in the rapidly emerging video rental stores, meaning the video recorder, which had been introduced a few years earlier, prevailed over the optical system for the time being.

Is film a party to the arts?

Films are cultural artifacts created by specific cultures and promote intercultural dialogue. They are considered an important art form that offers entertainment and historical value and often visually documents a certain period.

 

Flora Holland

From its birth in the 1880s, movies were predominantly monochrome. Contrary to popular belief, monochrome does not always mean black-and-white; it means a movie shot in a single tone or color. Since the cost of tinted film bases was substantially higher, most movies were produced in black-and-white monochrome. Even with the advent of early color experiments, the greater expense of color meant films were mostly made in black-and-white until the 1950s, when cheaper color processes were introduced. By the 1960s, color became by far the dominant film stock. In the coming decades, the usage of color film greatly increased, while monochrome films became scarce.

Music boxes

 

 

 A music box (American English) or musical box (British English) is an automatic musical instrument in a box that produces musical notes by using a set of pins placed on a revolving cylinder or disc to pluck the tuned teeth (or lamellae) of a steel comb. The popular device best known today as a "music box" developed from musical snuff boxes of the 18th century and were originally called carillons à musique (French for "chimes of music"). Some of the more complex boxes also contain a tiny drum and/or bells in addition to the metal comb.

Making of Fabeltjeskrant

 

 

\ In the age of DVDs, shorter behind-the-scenes documentaries were often used as a bonus to give more insight into the film, how it was made, and to credit the film crew. Occasionally, some films included a "making of the making-of" as a joke.[4] The making-of was also often released for television as a part of the promotion of the film.
