DVD available now: www.AmericanArtifactMovie.com American Artifact chronicles the rise of American rock poster art since its birth in the '60s. Director Merle Becker crosses the country interviewing rock poster artists from the different eras to discover that America is currently in the midst of a 21st century "rock poster art movement", where thousands of artists around the country are doing silk screened rock poster art inspired by their local scene, the music of our time, and the spirit of our era. The film explores the history rise of the current rock poster movement in America, and features a cast of quirky / interesting, and extremely talented rock poster artists, talking about their work, and telling the story of their underground art movement. Beginning in the 1960s in San Francisco with the birth of the dance concert, a rock poster accompanied almost every show that was put on during that era. Soon, people began pulling the posters off of the telephone poles, almost as quickly as they were put up, and promoters such as Bill Graham started to give them out at the end of his shows to advertise the next week's show. The art, both beautiful and edgy, closely parallels the changes in American culture throughout the decades. "Posters" in the '80s were actually "flyers" done for punk shows on Xerox machines in local libraries, or at Kinko's. They were glued to buildings and phone poles surreptitiously at night by kids in the scene. In this pre-computer era, the flyers ...

Millones de asiáticos desde la India a Japón pudieron contemplar hoy el eclipse total de sol más largo del siglo XXI, que alcanzó en el Océano PacÃfico al sur de Japón una duración de seis minutos y 39 segundos, aunque en muchas partes de Asia el mal tiempo empobreció el espectáculo. El eclipse comenzó a verse de madrugada en el oeste de la India a las 05.29, hora local (23.59 GMT del martes), y dejó de verse por el noreste del paÃs poco más de dos horas después. Los cielos cubiertos dificultaron apreciar el fenómeno a millones de indios en gran parte del territorio, aunque sà fue posible tomar imágenes espectaculares en la ciudad sagrada hindú de Benarés (norte), situada a orillas del rÃo Ganges. Mientras que la luna ocultaba la luz solar, al menos un millón y medio de indios se bañaron en sus aguas para purgar sus faltas, lo que también ocurrió en rÃos sagrados de Bután, Bangladesh y Nepal, donde también se vivió el eclipse total. El fenómeno comenzaba entonces a ser apreciado en territorio chino y grandes ciudades de su franja central, a orillas del principal rÃo del paÃs, el Yangtsé, como Chongqing, Wuhan, Hangzhou y Shanghai, pudieron presenciar de cuatro hasta casi seis minutos de eclipse total. La isla oriental china de Yangshan, ubicada 130 kilómetros al sureste de Shanghai y unida a sus costas por un puente de 32,5 kilómetros, fue el último punto de Asia continental donde se pudo admirar el eclipse y donde tuvo su mayor duración en tierra firme: cinco minutos y ...
