Online ethics in 2003
I have found this interesting code of online ethics here…posted in 2003, but if you check the comments you will see that already then bloggers were trying to separate themselves from pure journalism and that the word TRANSPARENCY is being used. Brilliant discussion on whether code of blog ethics is needed at all, whether it should be based on journalists experience or whether it should still re-written by fans of honest blogging…check it out!

Naked Conversations, by Robert Scoble and Shel Israel
Just finished it. It’s all still fresh and I feel I have focussed mainly on the topics I am currently interested in and the rest needs more thinking (and browsing!) mainly web ethics. I read his Corporate Weblog Manifesto, moved on to the one written by Allan Jenkins, and later here🙂
Anyway, the best part of the book I think (the main idea of convincing readers to write corporate blog is known to me, but then again I am quite late with reading this book:P) was ‘Blogging Rights and Wrongs’/ Every blogger should read those because those apply to all types of blogs.
Very good study! -
Exhibitions: “Sea-Land” for Appleton Art
This exhibition is a result of a Sea-Land project – my attempt to team up with my friend and map out some curious names of UK towns and try to figure out related visual associations. We had fun with my friend and I really loved exhibiting in this lovely barn in Appleton, nr. Oxford. I sold a picture, which was a great feeling, but I am mostly proud of our crazy idea. We hope to visit some of those places too!
You can see the collection over on Flickr.

Exhibitions: “Steps” for Oxford Artweeks, Castle Fair
I really loved experiencing the 5 am wake-up in Wantage, carrying the pictures to the stall provided by the Oxford Castle team, setting it all up and spending all day talking to people visiting us. Oh, what a location! What a feedback! Really loved it! Works are all over on Flickr.

Appleton Art
It was so much fun to join the opening last night! Appleton is a charming village and the place of the exhibition turned into a magical home for our works.
I met very interesting people with various approaches towards creating, viewing, selling and buying art. It’s not only an interesting learning curve but also a great experience of zen, the ‘here and now’. I am glad I can be a part of it.I sold one of my garden photos. I am so happy my work is appreciated.

In between two events
My small exhibit in Oxford ArtFair proved to be a great program for that weekend. We had so much fun with Dawid! He made it through 6 hours of staying in one place, so I am really impressed. I am more than grateful to all interested in my works and the few who left me with great thoughts for new ones!
I will be in Appleton this weekend and I am very happy that my colleagues will be there too. Come and join the exhibition!

Polish web
Thanks to Robin, I got to read this cool article with a ranking of the most popular websites used by UK-based Poles. Interesting, how it truly reflect the reality of the lifestyle of this minority…Also, YouTube on the 3rd place. The more I learn about social media, the more impressed I become by the Polish web. Not only seeing Polish versions of international venues amongst main languages (English, German, Spanish, etc), but also reading Polish blogs on social media and checking the quality of Polish websites (Zubrowka, Frugo, Heyah, and others).

Exhibitions: “Signs” at the Jam Factory in Oxford
This was my first exhibition and I cannot really express just how emotional it was! A lot has changed in my life – I have separated from the person who co-hosted this show with me so you can just imagine how hard it was to see it all through.
All I could think off was my son – I want him to be proud of me one day. With this little act of courage, I can now openly say that a new phase of my life has just begun. New life. New me. A new take on my photography. I opened up and people really enjoyed it.
Thank you to all my guests for visiting the show and thank you for all your lovely feedback!

Mexican silver
Srebro
Które przyrzeknę nosić
Ma być gwarancją
Że mnie nie opuścisz w potrzebie
I że od słów moich się nie odwróciszRodzice moi jak dwa strachy
Krążą w mojej dziecinnej wyobraźni
Brat bogiem mi, zagadką, Gralem
NieprzemakalnymA syn? Syn życia zagadką, dotykiem dłoni
Ciepłem, snem
Że możemy jeszcze być kiedyś nieczemu winniNie wiem nigdy, co skłania cię do rozmowy
W moim języku
Lecz w głębi oceanu modlitwa jest
Moja jak srebrny kamień
Okrągła, idealna, pustaJak twoje obietnice miłości
