Update June 2007

Just a quick word.

The overall agenda for the G Summit is now in place. Meaning,

• dates are set
• draft program is in place
• steering committee is, almost, in place
• book scenario is in place
• people are working on short speeches for the summit (Harry and Maurizio)
• the blog is in place, and seems to be working ok

The interest has been very positive. Some 10 people have openly expressed intentions of going (I know there are more), and 3 people already have their personal presentation on the blog. Hopefully there will be many more over the coming months. So, if you have intentions of attending, please state it. If you already have decided going, then have a presentation of yourself in. This is interesting reading for all who pops by the blog, and may drive even more participants.

I have started working to get contacts directly in Berlin, who can make the summit even more worth while. When I have news about this, it will be posted to the blog. I will continue to update the blogroll. If you find good links, then please let me know.

I just wanted this quick word to say thanks for the support so far. Please stay tuned, and please pass the blog’s URL on to G users you might know, who would take an interest in the summit.

Best regards

Knut

Celebrated G user, Maurizio Nicosia,  from The Contax G Pages,  has written an article on composition in photography. You’ll find the article in the blogroll under the new heading “G User Ressources”.

Maurizio has accepted to give a short speech on the subject when coming to Berlin in 2008. He has now started refeshing his English , and will give the speech in English. There will also be printed copies for the participants.

Maurizio is teaching  history of art at the Academy of fine arts in Bologna, Italy. In fact, he is a professor there.

Grazie Maurizio. Realmente sto osservando in avanti al vostro discorso su composizione. And I need to ”refresh” my Italian .

Ciao.
