The Call Centre

Call centre consultants are like doctors - they need to get under the client's skin to find out the most effectiveway of selling a product or getting valuable feedback. Call centre work is readily available and in most casesdoesn't require any qualifications or previous experience. What counts are interpersonal skills andadaptability to different situations and character types.

The proliferation of call centers, dating back to the 1990s and the spread of computer technology, has gonehand in hand with fierce cost cutting and competition for custom in Western economies. Call centers in placesas diverse as southern India and Malaysia now farm out their consultants to numerous clients at the sametime and service a diverse range of industries, from mobile phone operators and cosmetics retailers to banksand debt consolidation agencies.Piotr Malecki (Napo Imágenes, "Polítika") http://www.panos.co.uk/bin/panos2.dll/go?a=disp&t=gl-loader.html&_tlid=1&groupid=5&galleryid=1317&glbid=1823&_currentPhoto=0&_pname=PMA&si=A40EBC42808B4A7BAC53C75C609868&rnd=1039.5.11

BlackfieldsPoland has one of the highest numbers of lakes in the world and the current developments of expandingmining throughout the country will have a serious impact on these natural resources. Devastating effects canoccur on the fragile ecosystem endangering several species. Marshes and peat bogs can also dry up, causingirreversible destruction.Researchers believe that the impact of these new mining operations will affect not only surrounding areas butalso regions hundreds of kilometers away. If mining companies continue to refuse considering these facts andreevaluate their plans, the damage caused by opencast mining in Poland might have only begun.Based on a story by Marta Kazmierska | Greenpeace.http://vimeo.com/24718231

Poland. In search of diamonds

This is a country where anything's allowed. Here every, even the wildest relationship, becomes flesh. Ourversion of beauty has nothing in common with the utterly clichéd classic of Tuscany or Andalucia. Our beautyis an elixir for the initiated, those prepared for a surprise, for difficulty, a bold metaphor, a combination thatseems to come from one's wildest dreams. Poland is a land of cowboys, galloping dinosaurs, camels, dwarves,plastic bison and the biggest Jesus in the world, a land where any, even the most fantastical architectural formis allowed, a land like a great big question mark. A land of great adventure.Part of Michal Olszewski's text from our book "Poland. In search of diamonds“https://www.lensculture.com/tomasz-wiech?modal=true&modal_type=project&modal_project_id=4013

Beyond Bernado's vision of the superficial world and the satire he offers us, we are also given a glimpse of hisinspired personality on this guided tour of the 20th-century playwrights who have brought the senseless andthe ridiculous to the stage, as embodied in the writings of Cervantes and the paintings of Goya. And behindthis cumulus of symbols, there is the depiction of absurdity.

Paraguay

It is a story about us and our knowledge in the Google's reality. I chose Paraguay because name of this countryseems to be familiar for everyone, but , on the other hand, it is mentioned very rarely in mass media. I askedmy friends what they know about Paraguay and how they imagine this country. I connected their expectationswith pictures taken by me in my neighborhood which symbolically correspond to what my friends think aboutthe distant and unknown Paraguay. This is the series of pictures about lack of knowledge in the world of information.

This project is a personal and intuitive attempt in build a narration about all these ones who, ironically, havelost their freedom because of a war created to bring precisely this: “freedom”

This story is mainly motivated because of two experience, strongly linked together. One is my capture andcaptivity by troops loyalist to Gadafi. The other one is the verification, not long time after I was released, ofthe brutal treatment the rebels where giving to the prisoners loyalist to Gadafi´s regime.

Therefore, in addition to trying to talk about the situation of this prisoners, this essay wants to talk about theanger, the fury, the abuse, the torture … but specially, about the self-annihilation by themutilation of big guest of our desires as human beings: freedom.

So, offering my personal experience I can bring the situation of the prisoners closer, make it morecomprehensible… just as the images of the prisoners can shed some light on my experience.

Soth: “I believe that photography is essentially non-narrative. That, while it aches to tell stories, it doesn’treally tell stories that have a beginning, middle andend. This has constantly frustrated me about themedium, and I’ve been constantly battling it. WhatI’ve come up with, is that when I’m looking at aphotographer’s work, I’m looking as much at thatperson’s experience as a photographer in the world,almost as if they are a first-person narrator, as I’mlooking at the subjects of the photographs.”https://distrito47.wordpress.com/2013/06/02/alec-soth-sleeping-by-the-mississippi/
