The Social Network Era
I was thinking what makes these social networks (Facebook, Linkedin, etc) so popular. Many give examples, as people are "social animals" and need to relate and interact. I agree to that, but I think the main thing with all these social networks is that they gave people a voice.
Before the Internet era, the only way people could voice their needs and desires, were either by protesting on the streets or writing articles in newspapers or magazines (those who were lucky enough, could have their books published), that means, those were the channels we had to communicate.
The first way to voice our viewpoints that appeared on the Internet (I mean, a personal one, was the blog). I remember in the beginning of the 2000's, the main trend were the blogs, everybody had one (me, included!) so that was the starting point.
But we felt that something was missing. As blogs sometimes do not have the reach that a social network has. When you write something on a blog, the response may take a while, whereas when you write something on your personal page on a social network website, the response is almost immediate.
Everybody has something to say. That is a universal truth. Leaders, dictators, the lot, have tried throughout history to silence our voice. By no means, they have succeeded. As communicating is a universal need, like water that finds its way, through the most unlikely places.
In this social network era, we finally become "someone". We are our own paparazzis, our own interviewers. We become our own historians and biographers. Our history is there, through our pictures, posts, comments, events, etc.
We finally have a voice.
See ya,

Gabriela...sempre Gabriela....
Gabriela, o novo remake da Globo, com a talentosa Juliana Paes, no papel que foi um dia da fantástica Sônia Braga, é realmente uma história maravilhosa. Só de ouvir a trilha sonora, com a voz de Gal Costa cantando o tema da novela, o MPB4 cantando "Porto", traz de volta aquela nostalgia gostosa, que só uma novela realmente de sucesso, consegue. Porém, uma coisa que me surpreendeu (negativamente!) foi a escolha do elenco. A história se passa na Bahia no início do séc. XX (década de 30), e a Bahia, todo mundo sabe, é o estado brasileiro com o maior número de afro-descendentes. Porém, ao ver a novela, me assustou a quantidade de pessoas brancas na novela. O cabaré (Bataclan) só tem prostitutas brancas! Parece mais um bordel do Sul do Brasil do que da Bahia! Qual o motivo disso? Mercadológico? A figura feminina emblemática da Bahia é, comprovadamente, a mulata. Existem atrizes lindas, brasileiras, que cairiam como uma luva em tais papéis (Camilla Pitanga, Taís Araújo, Roberta Rodrigues, Sheron Menezes, etc)...Essas sim, as legítimas representantes da faceirice e brejeirice tipicamente brasileira.
O que pensar então, do que se passa diante de nossos olhos, ao ver uma representação tão distante da realidade baiana.
Os atores escalados da novela são todos talentosíssimos, porém, o verdadeiro espírito da Bahia, ficou, nesse remake, tão distante de nossa brasilidade (nesse caso, "baianice", se me perdoam o termo) quanto água e vinho.

In love with Charlotte Gainsbourg's music!
Ela é demais! Eu sempre admirei seu trabalho como atriz...aliás, foram muitos os filmes que vi com Charlotte. Porém, descobri suas músicas este fim de semana, e é claro, não sei porque fiquei surpresa...a filha de dois ícones (Serge Gainsbourg e Jane Birkin), tinha que dar nisso. Seu álbum "5:55" é maravilhoso, e super maduro para quem já não lançava um álbum há quase vinte anos. Estou descobrindo os outros...Deixo vocês com uma prévia, uma das minhas músicas preferidas do álbum...
She is great! I've always admired her work as an actress...in fact, many were the films I saw with Charlotte. However, I found out about her music this weekend, and, of course, I don't know why I was surprised...the daughter of two icons (Serge Gainsbourg and Jane Birkin), she had to be this way. Her album "5:55" is wonderful, and very mature, artistically, for someone who had not released an album in nearly twenty years. I am discovering the other ones...I leave you with one of my favorite songs of the album...
