Serving and community spirit building on Google Plus

There’s one series that left a mark in my heart and with that I made difference.The series is called and was designed to serve the purposes of the PYB Academy community spirit: help people get
Synesthesia: The Wondrous World of Cross-linked Senses
A harmless condition characterized by blending of the senses – colours associated with letters and numbers, smells and tastes perceptually linked to music, sounds triggering the perception of shapes, synesthesia is a neurological phenomenon which reminds us that not everyone experiences the world the way we do. From brown squared orgasms, through ringing that feels rough like a
Semantic Web, Relationships and a Piece of Conceptual art
In our hypermodern times it looks like that the answer to what something is lies a click or a thought away, somewhere between “Ask Google” and “I don’t need Google, my wife knows everything.” But, really, what defines a thing, a person or a place? Is it its definition alone, or is it the words used to signify it? Could
Writing is skating on a vert ramp
Writing is not easy. It scares a lot of people, mostly writers. Sitting there, face to face with the unwritten, murmuring wordlessly text is hard. Not running away is a habit to be cultivated and nurtured all life. It takes guts to sit, start and keep unearthing treasures from the depths of “your” mind. As David Amerland puts it: It’s

Social presence as a living intertextuality
My mom lives in a four-storey building where all the neighbours know each other. For a year or so they have also known me - the girl who often stops between the second and the third floor, sunk deep into another reality through a typical realia of our age - a smartphone screen. Living intertextuality: stories, shrunk in
