A complete success - LASER World of PHOTONICS 2017 - Duration: 2:24.
After four days LASER World of PHOTONICS 2017 comes to an end.
The ideal time to take stock of this year's world's leading trade fair.
LASER World of PHOTONICS 2017 was characterized by an incredible dynamic, with a lot of optimism.
Photonics is a growth industry.
Of course, this is reflected in the number of exhibitors - a record we set here.
But also the visitor numbers: more than every second visitor came from abroad.
Overall, we beat the result of 2015 by a good margin.
Over 32,000 trade visitors were here, at the fair and at the Congress.
At this year's LASER World of PHOTONICS, the focus, in addition to the areas of imaging
and sensor technology, was clearly on medical technology.
But that was not all.
Quantum Photonics was widely discussed here, in Congress, but also by the exhibitors.
Therefore, the combination between Congress and exhibition is also very important, so
that the findings from science flow into products as quickly as possible.
This was an important topic and of course also Photonics 4.0
Light-based solutions for the production of the future.
In this strong growth sector, one thinks of the young generation, of course.
The newcomers of the industry are very important for us at Messe München and we staged the
MAKEATON competition here for the first time.
Something for very young students, for young academics, and for the second time we had
START-UP WORLD, which was distinguished by the fact that young companies were able to
present highly interesting products – to an international audience.
And the interest in these products was also very, very high.
LASER World auf PHOTONICS!
A complete success in 2017.
We can look forward to the next world leading trade fair of light - in 2019.

ASL FEMA - Several Inspectors May Come to a Home - Duration: 2:34.
Several Inspectors May Come to a Home
After applying for disaster assistance from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA),
they may contact you to schedule a home inspection.
It's possible that several other agencies may also need to inspect the damage.
The inspections will not cost you anything – they are free.
If you want your application to move forward, FEMA needs to verify the damage.
Other inspections by the Small Business Administration (SBA)
may be needed to process your disaster loan application.
You should always ask for a photo ID when the inspector arrives.
FEMA and SBA inspectors will have an official photo ID.
Homeowners should consult their local planning or
public works department to learn about permits and code requirements.
In some cases, a local inspector might need to visit the home.
Here are some of the inspections a homeowner might expect:
FEMA inspectors – From FEMA's Individual Assistance (IA) program,
these professionals have experience recognizing types of disaster damage.
These inspectors will carry FEMA identification and may spend
only 10 to 20 minutes looking at damage reported in the application.
FEMA inspectors do not decide if you may be able to get money.
National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) adjusters –
These professionals will inspect the flood damage reported on the flood insurance claim.
They may ask for paperwork or photos if repairs have been made.
Private flood insurance adjusters –
These representatives of insurance companies may inspect
the flood damage reported on the flood insurance claim.
They may also ask for paperwork or photos if repairs have been made.
Small Business Administration (SBA) loss verifier –
They will verify the damage and analyze how much money is needed
to repair or replace disaster damaged property.
Local city or county inspectors also may visit the home.

40 Reasons Why I'm Not Crazy, You're Just An Asshole | Conscious Reminder - Duration: 10:15.
40 Reasons Why I'm Not Crazy, You're Just An Asshole
Girls don't wake up randomly one morning thinking: "You know what would be super fun for my health!?!
If I just acted super crazy until it completely drained me and ruined my day!"
No, that's not something that happens.
What does happen is that a boy who's been making a girl feel special and loved one minute will suddenly flip a switch and change his entire
attitude without warning.
Naturally, this inexplicable behavior causes the girl to morph into a lost little puppy.
Given the way she's treated, the girl reacts in a reasonable manner but her actions are dismissed as "crazy."
When I think "crazy," I think of a girl who castrates her boyfriend in his sleep or keys his car.
I don't think of the girl who calls a guy who stood her up to see where he is, or the girl who gets upset because her boyfriend keeps DMing
girls on Instagram whom he claims are "just friends."
The word "crazy" is so overused that you could blink and a guy will say you're crazy because you blinked too many times within one minute.
Guys love the c-word because it's the perfect answer for people who don't want to take any responsibility for their actions.
It's much easier to call a girl crazy than to admit that you did something wrong, or — OMG, here's a crazy idea — talk about your feelings.
After a while, we women start to accept this poor treatment from guys and internalize their bad behavior.
We think it's our fault that we're humans who experience justifiable feelings: I must be crazy!
I'm so lucky that my boyfriend puts up with me!
No, Felicia — raise your hand and slap yourself in the face because you are being an idiot.
Below are 40 snippets from moments in my dating life when I was called crazy by a guy for expressing a very real emotion.
I have a feeling you'll relate!
1.
I'm not being unreasonable, we've been dating for six months and I want to know where this is going.
2.
I'm not a slut.
You said you didn't want to be exclusive so I'm keeping my options open.
3.
I'm not jealous.
You're making out with another girl right in front of me and we had sex last night.
4.
I'm not being needy, we had plans and you never showed up.
5.
I'm not being aggressive.
I called you once after we had sex and I haven't heard from you in days.
6.
I'm not a prude — threesomes are just not my thing.
7.
I'm not a tease, but a family member died and I need some emotional support right now.
8.
I'm not being frigid, I just had a really bad day and you don't even care.
9.
I'm not being difficult.
I just don't want to go clubbing for the third time this week because I just got my period, the cramps are killing me,
and I feel like Shamu.
10.
I'm not a bitch.
I just won't apologize for something that wasn't my fault.
11.
I'm not insecure, it just makes me uncomfortable that you keep talking about how hot my friends are.
12.
I'm not possessive, I just don't think you should be adding random girls on Instagram and hitting them up behind my back and flirting with
them while lying to me about it when we're supposed to be exclusive.
13.
It's not that I don't trust you, it's that you lied to me and it's not the first time.
14.
I'm not trying to be naggy, you just hurt my feelings and I want to talk about it so we can move forward.
15.
No, I'm not on my period.
But asking me if I am and telling me to chill out when I have every right to be upset will make me even angrier.
16.
I'm not stupid, so why do you keep talking down to me like I am?
17.
I'm not delusional, she's calling you as we speak.
18.
I'm not overreacting, you cheated on me and gave me HPV.
19.
I'm not being overly sensitive — you dumped me on my birthday!
20.
I'm not seeking attention by deleting you off of social media.
We just broke up and you're already posting pictures with another girl and it's hurting me to see it.
21.
I'm not closed off.
I actually really like you but I've been hurt before so I'm being careful with my heart.
22.
I'm not asking you to be my boyfriend, but it confuses me when you call me all day, want to see me all the time and spend the night,
ask me about my past relationships, hold me at night, kiss me on my forehead, hold my hand, take me out,
get jealous if any boys text me and want to know everything I'm up to.
23.
I'm not overbearing.
You're the one who asked me to sleep over all week.
24.
I'm not possessive, but we're in the middle of dinner and you're texting your old booty call,
saying we have to end the night short because she's going through some stuff and needs you.
25.
I'm not being clingy, I just haven't seen you in weeks and I miss you.
26.
I'm not overthinking, it's just that you face timed me for hours every night before bed when you were away,
and when you were back in town for your birthday you invited me to some couple's dinner that you brought another girl to.
27.
I'm not too attached, you just made me feel special and then it hurt me to find out that there were other girls in the picture.
28.
I'm not being immature, I'm just upset and need some space so I don't say anything I'm going to regret.
29.
I'm not obsessed.
You're just leading me on because you enjoy the attention but you secretly have no actual intent of pursuing a relationship.
30.
I'm not a stalker.
We're in the same industry and hang in the same circle of friends.
You're at MY friend's party with our mutual friend who happens to be MY best friend.
31.
I'm not being petty.
I blog about dating and relationships for a living so I have to do my job regardless of what we're going through.
How many times do I have to tell you that it's not about you?
(Except right now. Lol)
32.
I'm not @Daddyissues_ the enhanced Instagram character I pretend to be online everyday and I really wish you cared enough to get to know
the real me.
33.
I'm not intense, I just really liked you and I thought we were on the same page.
I never got the heads up about when you stopped feeling the same way.
34.
I'm not out of line, I just think I deserved an explanation about why you stopped answering my calls and making an effort after we'd been
inseparable for the past couple months.
35.
I'm not mad, I'm just really hurt and I wish you cared enough to fix it.
36.
I'm not trying to make you feel bad, I just feel humiliated for putting myself out there and then having my feelings dismissed.
37.
I'm not an emotional wreck.
I'm just a human with feelings who expresses herself differently than you do.
38.
I'm not being dramatic.
You're just treating me like shit and I need to move on.
39.
I'm not too much.
Maybe you're just not enough.
40.
I'm not crazy, you're just an asshole.

Former President Barack Obama and his family take a private jet from Bali to Java - Duration: 2:23.
Former President Barack Obama and his family wrapped up their five-day vacation on Indonesia's
resort island of Bali and headed to the historic city of Yogyakarta on Wednesday during a nostalgic
trip to the country where Obama lived for several years as a child.
Obama, his wife Michelle and daughters Malia and Sasha drove to a luxury hotel in downtown
Yogyakarta after arriving on a private jet at the city's military airport, said Indonesian
air force base commander Air Vice Marshal Novyan Samyoga.
The family then went to visit the ninth-century Borobudur Temple in Magelang on Wednesday
where they were seen snapping photos.
Samyoga was among local officials who greeted the Obamas at the tarmac.
He said the family looked relaxed and was smiling in response to onlookers who greeted
them with cheers.
He said that Secret Service agents did not have special requests for the Obamas' activities
on the main Java island, but about 650 Indonesian security forces were deployed to secure the
family in Yogyakarta, an ancient city where Obama's mother, Ann Dunham, spent years on
her anthropological research.
Obama moved to Indonesia in 1967 at age six after his divorced mother remarried an Indonesian
man.
She stayed on after the marriage broke up, working as an anthropologist and development
aid worker, but Obama returned to Hawaii when he was 10 to live with his grandparents.
Obama and his family were seen on a river rafting as they vacationed in Bali on Monday.
They also visited several tourist attractions, including a museum and rice terraces in Ubud,
an arts and culture center amid hills and rice paddies.
In Yogjakarta, the Obamas also plan to visit the Hindu temple of Prambanan during their
two-day holiday, Samyoga said.
President Joko 'Jokowi' Widodo has invited the Obamas to visit the Bogor Palace in West
Java during their trip in Indonesia.
Obama is also scheduled to speak at an Indonesian Diaspora Congress in Jakarta on July 1.

(subs) Yagudin - 2010 -PART3- "100 questions to an adult" - Duration: 12:38.
The next question.
Hello Alexei. My name is Zhenya. When did you understand, that the state needs you as an athlete?
I guess they need us only when we win.
Though I want to say that a kind of the Olympic stipend or slash pension exists in our country.
Yet it exists for the Olympic champions, as for other athletes... I don't know.
How much is it?
Well, I don't like to speak about money in our country, I always depart from this question. So using the rules of our show, I depart about how much.
You know, Alexei, looking into somebody's pocket is likely not good indeed, yet according to the rules of our show we should note the first refusal.
Y: Thank you, the voice from up above. H: You are welcome, Alexei. You still have a right to refuse to answer two questions.
We continue the talk. The next question, the red microphone.
Hello Alexei. My name is Ira. I'd like to ask you: are you offended, that the sport has took so much of your health?
No, because thanks to the sport I sit here and socialize with you.
In my situation the sport has given an enormous chance, has opened many doors in my life where I can go.
If there was no sport... I was dreaming of being a long distance trucker, when I was a child.
Maybe I would be going along those bumpy roads somewhere between Moscow and Peter. E95 highway.
Yet not many are as successful as me or Zhenya.
Millions of children do sports. Many of them maybe not ruin their health,
but do cross that line, when the sport demands more than their body can give, and they can't win.
So as for education, their education isn't very good and as for sport, they didn't succeed to win.
Yet I'm lucky. I'm lucky, because the sport bent to me,
and I have many opportunities in my life thanks to the Olympic title, so I am not offended.
G: Thank you very much. H: The question on the right.
Hello Alexei. My name is Anya, and I'd like to ask: do you beep, when you go through a wanding station?
You are prepared! In America I do. Maybe their stations are more delicate.
In Russia... only in Domodedovo airport, as far as I remember. Yet Sheremetievo has new devices now, so in Sheremetievo as well.
I often see people who hear: "Put off all the metallic things," - yet they leave their belts on them, their watches or glasses.
Many people are waiting, but they put off the things one by one, and something beeps again...
I know in advance... (we often fly) I put off everything, even my shoes...
they say: "You don't need to put off the shoes." I say: "I need." And it beeps. She asks: "What else do you have?"
I put up my hands, I say: "It's my hip." Yet usually they recognise me, they check it at once: "Yes, OK."
Sometimes I ask them: "Show it to me! Show how it looks like!" Sometimes they show. So yes, sometimes I beep.
What is the most difficult for you in the figure skating?
I think the most difficult in the figure skating will be retiring from it. This step will be difficult.
Retiring from the competitions was a very difficult step for me. I did it because of my health, I couldn't bear pain any more.
I couldn't skate on the same level, what was needed for serious competitions. It was a really difficult step.
As for the skating, I can't say, that something is harder or easier.
Jumps are one thing, the stamina (so that one could do it from beginning to the end) is another thing. Everything is OK.
I think the most difficult is ahead, the most difficult moment will come, when I'll have to put off the skates,
to hang them on a nail and to say: "Enough". So the most difficult is ahead, thanks to God.
One more question, the yellow microphone.
Hello, my name is Elizaveta. Can you show your tongue?
Alexei Yagudin is the guest of the show "100 questions to an adult" today.
Alexei, unfortunately the time for the questions from the participants of the show is over.
Now you have a right to ask any of children your questions. You are welcome.
A question to the girl (about the tongue): why?
Just for fun.
Ah, I've got it. Thank you.
Alexei, is that all or would you like to ask something else?
I would ask this girl: what do you think about man's tears or disappointment? does a man have such a right or he doesn't?
I think he has.
I just think some people are more emotional, some are less emotional, everyone expresses oneself his own way.
Many of us will be breaking hearts, somebody will be breaking our hearts. Yet such is life, we can't escape from it.
So let it be, may these unpleasant situations teach us something, because I was getting much information from these moments as well.
So the last question is usual, as the voice from up above says: was it interesting for you?
Yes. Y: Thank you.
Alexei Yagudin is the guest of the show "100 questions to an adult". We are seeing our guest off. Alexei, I am waiting for you at the entry.
Thank you.
I ask you to stop here for a while, Alexei, I have a question: which of the questions was the most difficult for you today?
Frankly, none of them. I was absolutely calm, I understood what I should say.
I didn't think, that I should worm out of it, no, there were estimable questions, I knew what I should answer,
and I can't say, that there was a question which knocked me off my stride.
Did you hear some traditional questions today, questions which you are tired to answer?
"How did you start skating?" It is a frequent question. About the figure skating. I've been skating for 26 years,
so when I hear again "how did you start skating?", "what did you want to be?"...
yet it is OK for me, this is an absolutely new audience, I am absolutely new for them, so it was interesting for them.
OK. You succeeded to answer 17 questions out of 100 which were planned. If you'll be invited again to such an audience, will you agree to come?
Yes, with pleasure. And it seems to me, that now, when I know more about this show, I'll succeed to answer 100 questions in the available time.
Now I'd like to ask the participants of the show: guys, would you like to invite Alexei again? Yes.
OK. Thank you, that we hear so many voices.
Now guys, could you tell, please, why did you like Alexei so much?
Alexei, you impressed us today, actually! We all know, that athletes often are not very talkative,
and you didn't need to think each time when you answered a question. Thank you very much for your openness. Y: Thank you.
It seemed to me, that you are a very young man who has reached his goals, and today I understood, that you are very adult and serious man.
I am already 30 years old.
Alexei, it was nice to meet you, to see you, and I have a dream, I'd like to become a reporter on TV,
and I'd like to meet you again and to do an interview, a real one. It would be a pleasure.
Y: I can give my contacts. Now. B: Cool! Thank you.
Who else would like to speak?
I'd like to say, that it was nice to listen to your answers, I'd like to see you again in this show, because I didn't have time to ask my questions.
Alexei, according to our tradition, our guest has the final word. Summarise the talk, please. You have 30 seconds.
It is strange, that I had a minute to speak about me, but I have only a half to summarise the talk. It is always needed more time for summarising than for describing oneself.
I'm happy, that I've spent these hours with you. You are young people of an absolutely different age.
It was very interesting to hear what's going on in your heads and what questions you have.
I'd like to wish you... I had such a sense of purpose as well. We should always understand what do we want from ourselves,
we should set goals and do our best to reach them, and set new ones when those are reached. So remember, guys, that always everything depends on you, only on you.
You should overcome yourselves, overbear, should do these first steps, may they be difficult, but... you are the future,
so never lose hope, believe in yourselves. Good luck to all of you!
The world-class Merited Master of Sport, the Olympic champion Alexei Yagudin was the guest of the show "100 questions to an adult" today. See you next week, friends!

NASA ALIENS: Is this an alien spaceship on Mars or NASA debris? - Duration: 4:55.
Nasa's Curiosity rover has snapped a photo of a mysterious object on the surface of Mars,
which conspiracy theorists believe could be evidence of aliens.
The high-definition image appears to show the object glinting against Mars' rocky landscape.
While many people believe that the object is made by aliens, others have suggested that
it is merely the rover's own entry debris.
The image was taken in March, but was posted on Reddit this week, sparking a huge online
debate about what it shows.
Prosaic Origin, the Reddit user who posted the image, wrote: 'Uh Nasa?
UFO caught on Mars Rover mission?
Is this real?'
His post has received 79 replies, many of which back up his thoughts that it could be
aliens.

This isn't the first time that conspiracy theorists have claimed that images taken by
the Curiosity rover show aliens.
Yesterday, alien hunters claimed that the rover had taken images of thigh bones protruding
from the red planet's surface.
The pictures were presented in a video from conspiracy theorist group Martian Archaeology
alongside several other Curiosity images that appear to show 'signs of life'.
These include reported signs of lichen and fungi and other biological life growing on
Mars.
Fans of the video have posted their views in the comment section.
TJ Devereaux wrote: 'After years of research and study, I'm convinced now, more then ever,
that there much more to Mars then what Nasa admits to.
'I'm certain life, including water, and intelligent life forms, once occupied the planet, and...

Structured data training: an introduction - Duration: 5:47.
Welcome to our course about structured data.
We're going to dive into structured data in this lesson
and after this lesson you'll be able to explain the concept of holistic SEO,
which is what we use to encompass everything we do
and you'll be able to grasp the basic beginnings of what structured data is.
So let me talk about holistic SEO.
Holistic SEO is the way that we do SEO at Yoast.
To understand that you have to first understand Google's mission.
Google's mission is to organize the world's information
and make it universally accessible and useful.
Now we as SEOs we aim to improve a website's organic position,
so a position in the free, or what we call "organic results".
And we try to do that in a way that we do not use any scorched-earth tactics,
we do not spam, we do not by links,
we do not do stuff that Google does not condone.
We prefer sustainable SEO.
And to do that you have to focus on all the aspects of website optimization
and you have to actually be the best result.
Holistic SEO to us is many things combined into one.
It's technical excellence,
it's quality content, it's good UX and good UI,
is flawless security, it's awesome PR and social,
it's all these things combined.
But it as I said one of the things in there is technical excellence.
So technical SEO is an integral part of good SEO.
Now we have a course on technical SEO
in which we explain things like canonical and robots.txt,
we'd talk about meta tags and all these things,
but in that course we do not talk about structured data.
That's what this course is for.
We talk about structured data
and specifically structured data as it relates to Schema.org
and the things that Google can work with and does stuff with in their search results.
So what will you learn?
You'll explain what structured data is and why is it important for SEO.
You'll understand the use of structured data throughout the web
and you will be able to implement your own structured data on your WordPress site.
So we have three modules in this course:
Module 1 is, "What is structured data?",
Module 2 is, "Implementing structured data"
and Module 3 is the "Practical use of structured data."
That's a whole lot of structured data, but what is structured data?
Structured data is basically metadata.
It's how we tell Google what we're talking about .
We make structured data using a schema, a taxonomy if you wish,
like there is a taxonomy and biology of animals and species.
Schema.org is a taxonomy of everything.
So in this course we'll go over all of that
and we'll tell you which parts of this whole Schema.org set up are useful to you now.
Now this is an evolving thing.
Schema.org is rapidly evolving.
So we'll cover what Google does as we record this video,
but we will also give you the tools
to see where Google and other search engines are improving this,
to see how you could use it in the future.
Now that's a whole lot of things to take in,
so do a bit more reading and do your exercises.
So after each lesson I will come in
and ask the questions about the things I didn't understand in your story.
So I'm a bit confused by your use of both structured data and Schema.org.
So what's the difference?
Schema.org is one method of structured data.
It's the only one we will talk about in this course.
But there are other methods.
Yeah absolutely, so way back in the past we used to have microformats
which was another way of marking things up, as cards or whatever
and there are multiple ways of doing structured data,
there are multiple taxonomies for things.
A structured data is usually the combination of a taxonomy like Schema.org
and a type of markup.
JSON-LD is the one we'll cover in this course, but we'll talk about that later.
So schema.org is the one method of structured data
we're talking about in this course.
Then I have another question.
Thinking about structured data,
I think it's a SEO tactic in which you actually communicate with Google.
I think that makes it different from other tactics
like writing for the search engines.
It's weird actually because we're doing stuff specifically for the search engines,
which is something we've always told people not to do.
At the same time structured data can be read by everyone.
So structured data is useful for a lot more things than just Google.
So Pinterest reads your structure data,
Facebook reads your structured data, Apple reads it...
And Google is okay with--
Yeah, because it's an open way of improving the web
and improving the way that search engines and machines can read web pages,
just as well as people can.
So it's a very active SEO strategy, right?
It's a very, very active SEO strategy, it's a lot of work.
So let's go do it.
Okay.
Bye-bye.
You've got a lot of reading and exercises to do,
so we'll go do that and then we'll see you in the next lesson.

ASL FEMA - Reasons to Apply for an SBA Loan - Duration: 5:37.
Reasons to Apply for an SBA Loan
The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) has an important responsibility
in helping disaster survivors recover.
If you have experienced damages or loss from the recent disaster
and have registered with FEMA, you may be referred to SBA.
If you are contacted by SBA regarding a low-interest disaster loan application,
it is important to complete and submit the application as soon as possible.
This will make sure your recovery process
moves forward and you have possible options for more help.
Even if you do not believe you need a loan, you should complete and submit the application.
If SBA decides you can get a loan, you are not required to accept the money.
Homeowners and renters who submit an SBA application and have been denied for a loan
may be referred to FEMA and could possibly get other
FEMA grants and program assistance for disaster related car repairs,
clothing, household items and other expenses.
Insurance can help, but it is SBA's, a government agency, responsibility to loan money to help
with long term rebuilding of disaster damaged private property.
SBA offers low-interest disaster loans to businesses of all sizes,
most private nonprofit organizations, homeowners and renters.
A homeowner may be able to get a disaster loan for up to $200,000
to repair or replace disaster damaged private property.
Homeowners or renters may be able to get up to $40,000
to repair or replace disaster damaged personal property.
SBA may be able to help homeowners and renters replace important personal items such as
personal property – including automobiles – damaged or destroyed in the disaster.
SBA also offers low-interest working capital loans (called Economic Injury Disaster Loans)
to small businesses and most private nonprofit organizations
having difficulty paying bills as a result of the disaster.
To apply for an SBA low-interest disaster loan, you can apply online using the
Electronic Loan Application via SBA's secure website at https://disasterloan.sba.gov/ela.
You can also visit a FEMA disaster recovery center (DRC)
and meet with an SBA representative in person.
SBA has staff at all recovery centers to help with your applications.
To locate the nearest center, call the FEMA Helpline at 800-621-3362 (VRS)
(TTY call 800-462-7585),
use the FEMA app for smart phones,
or go online to www.fema.gov/DRC.
For additional details on the locations of recovery centers and the loan application process,
you can call the SBA Customer Service Center at 800-659-2955 (VRS)
(or TTY 800-877-8339)
or send an email to disastercustomerservice@sba.gov.
You may be able to get additional money to help pay for the cost of improvements
that will protect your property from future damage.
Examples of improvements include retaining walls, seawalls, sump pumps, etc.
SBA mitigation loan money would be in addition to what your previously approved
disaster loan amount was, but it may not be more than 20% of the total amount of damage
to your private and personal property that has been verified by SBA.
SBA's approval of any improvement is required before any loan increase can happen.
You should not wait for an insurance settlement before submitting an SBA loan application.
You can begin your recovery immediately with a low-interest SBA disaster loan.
Your SBA loan amount will be lower depending on what amount of money your insurance company
or other sources pay you for your losses.
SBA can help businesses and private nonprofit organizations with up to $2 million
to repair or replace disaster-damaged real estate and other business assets.
Eligible small businesses and nonprofits may apply for economic injury disaster loans
to help meet working capital needs to help pay bills or replace business items lost in the disaster.

【ART VS. ILLUSTRATION】Thoughts of an Art Student - Duration: 13:46.
A month ago I uploaded my video about my experience on studying art.
I am so happy about the large amount of of feedback I received, even if it is sad that
so many of you had the same or similar experience.
But I figured that some people misunderstood the point that I was trying to make.
It was not about bashing studying art or art itself.
Not at all.
I said it in the beginning of the video that I define art as something that can be projected
onto anything by anyone.
I see it as a category under which people can discuss anything in a certain way and
achieve perspectives and thoughts they probably would have never had if that wasn't possible.
Just because - in my opinion - you are able to call anything art, that doesn't mean you
have to like everything.
Not everyone has to give a piece the same value.
It is up to the observer.
But if more people like it, that means there is a market on which it is valuable.
If the right people like it, it might even be displayed in a museum because there is
another market for that as well.
There are a lot of conditions to consider what makes something valuable (Name,Look,Execution
etc.)
In short: Art is a term to classify an object or performance and make it comparable with
other things under that same perspective.
Rating that object or performance good or bad is something that happens after that attribution
was made.
It's important for me to see it this way, so I won't get angry when - for example - I
visit a museum, because I can accept something I don't like as a part of the art category,
but I am still an independent human being who can decide to like it or not, to give
it value or not.
While I am super grateful that most of you watched the whole video and understood what
I said, I feel the need to make this video because there were a lot of people as well
who were not really getting my point or even misinterpreting it.
So I chose some comments that summarize some accusations I found the most, and elaborate
on what made me come to the conclusion that art isn't as superior as some people would
like to think.
Most common question Why am I studying art and not illustration?
From what I've learned from my brother, who is studying illustration and design, he
made very similar experiences.
The difference between the two seems to be that illustration and design openly talk about
the market they are working for, while in art I always get to hear "Do what interests
you", "Question things", "Break conventions".
But in reality, they judge your work by the demand of the art market.
The rough point of my video was, that art likes to deny that such a market exists and
that it shapes the way people judge the work of others, especially how Professors judge
art students.
If everyone was more open about it when giving feedback, you'd know what you would be working
towards.
But keep in mind: I am studying art to become a teacher.
What I expected to learn in that regard is a topic for a whole nother video.
But considering that, ...
In the beginning I thought I could work freely, and unaffected by museums, exhibitions or
an art market in general.
But I figured out quickly, that as a teacher apparently my work would be to justify and
sell the art on the market to future students.
So after all my work is still rated after the standards of the art market.
Last but not least, to get into art you need a qualification, which you get through a portfolio
and an exam.
I applied to both design and art.
Design declined me twice, art accepted me ;)
Next up is a longer comment.
Pause the video to read it in full.
But I'll highlight the relevant parts that I'll talk about.
If I had wanted to get compliments at uni I would've taken some stains on paper plus
an esoteric explanation with me, like everyone else there.
I was prepared for a negative reaction, that it wouldn't be accepted.
What bothered me was the behaviour and the kind of questions I had to deal with.
But I also said that I took it with me because they wanted to see what I was working on in
my private life.
That was their specific request.
I wasn't whining about being criticized in the first place, I mentioned that to illustrate
the contrast between my private work and what I do for Uni.
And of course to demonstrate how absurd and random the feedback was.
But more importantly, the point of the video was to question the common believe, that art
was automatically better than just pretty things.
People accuse illustration to just exist for the sake of being pretty and catch attention
on the illustration market.
But a similar accusation can be made about art being created for the sake of being art
and thus sell on the art market.
The difference is that illustration can be more objectively rated based on the craft,
skills and purpose at least.
To understand art you often have to swallow what people tell you without questioning.
I mean, you can question those things, but be prepared to make enemies.
It's simply an unpopular thing to do.
You say it's more than that.
I just wish the people who grade me would get that step right.
I don't really get your point.
Not that I disagree, because art, in order to sell, definitely needs an added value.
What bugs me is what makes people think they can just judge using phrases like "Oh it's
pretty and so there is not story behind it", while swallowing every tiny piece of crap
that they are told when they look at, say, folded towels in a museum.
That's quite a double standard: You absolutely cannot tell, only guess, what the story behind
these towels is by just looking at them.
Nor can you really do so for the painting I did.
In that regard there is no difference between art and illustration, only prejudice.
But it goes further: Every person can gets something else out of an art piece.
One person might brush it off as just some towels, someone else might see something in
them that no-one else can.
At that point it doesn't even matter anymore whether the artist actually had anything in
mind.
Furthermore, the argument fails when talking about movements like Dadaism, or Art Brut,
where drawings and paintings were created by laypeople, children and patients of psychiatric
hospitals which were later declared and sold as art by Jean Dubuffets.
It's just like Joseph Beuys said: "Everyone is an artist".
We are at a point where it's pointless to say something's not art because we should
know by now that it heavily depends on Zeitgeist, what gets praised and what gets trashed.
The past has shown us again and again, and it's always the same mistake.
Again: Just because something's pretty doesn't mean that it's unsubstantial.
The other side of the coin is that just because somethings ugly, you can't assume there
is automatically some added intellectual value.
In art it is has somehow become mainstream to portray ugly people, because the art market
is buying it.
And of course, if the market wants it, then do it, but stop claiming that ugly is automatically
innovative or more authentic than pretty.
But what is ugly and pretty anyway?
Isn't that in the eye of the beholder?
All I want to say is: Develope your own taste and don't let people tell you something
is more worthy to be liked.
You are independent, make up your own mind.
If you still come to your conclusion, then that's fine.
But do so without any preconceived notions ingrained by any authority, or just to supposedly
separate yourself from one mainstream, only to land in another one.
I study to become a teacher.
A teacher in my opinion should have the authority to teach, and therefore it would be beneficial
if a teacher was able to argue artistic decisions out of choice and not out of inability.
Unfortunately, nowadays I experienced that when studying art, you learn absolutely nothing
that enables you to actually improve your skills.
There is no challenge.
You bring yourself and from moment on you just learn to sell yourself.
The only way to improve is learning drawing and painting privately, but risks are high
that your work looks too good aka like an illustration.
Then you have to downscale your skill to make it look like art.
I have actually been fairly successful so far, because as it turns out, it's really
easy to work on concepts of art if nobody rates the execution.
That is why I want to make people question: "Do I like these stains on canvas because
it was sold to me by an industry that is believed to be about real personal authentic expression,
while on the other hand the same industry dictates a strict line of what is art and
what's not?"
It's not about bashing anything.
But I just think it is unfair to bash illustration as something anyone could do and present art
as higher authority.
Thank you!
While I'm very grateful you liked that work of mine I still wonder:
You were accusing me of drawing that pretty painting just for the sake of being pretty
and appealing to the masses, assuming there is no story behind it.
At the same time I explicitly told you in the video that this painting that you love
has absolutely no story, no personality behind it.
I put no effort into it and it was just done for the artsy people at my uni to like.
I might understand now why modern art is so popular nowadays.
I hope I could show you that sometimes illustration and art can both be done in a calculated manner.
Both are markets.
A lot of artists are getting praised years after they died.
Not because their art suddenly changed but the demand and taste of the market.
People were listening to authorities and not to their own taste.
I did an experiment in my second semester.
I had a different prof where I took paintings with me that you can see on screen right now.
Those were criticized massively and I was directed to change.
Two weeks later I still had them hanging around because I used them as reference for a next
project and suddenly the same teacher asked me why I wouldn't want pursue that direction
more, because they had potential and reminded them of Baselitz (who, by the way, said some
horrible things about female artist but is still a highly regarded personality.
But that's another topic).
So my profs often have absolutely no idea themselves what they are looking for.
More importantly they are also not looking for uniqueness, since you need to drop names
that influenced you in order to survive and sell.
It's actually the other way around, if you wanted to be unique studying art just do manga,
the fewest do it because everyone knows how dangerous it is and you will come out of it
with a stronger personality because everyone will discourage you from doing it.
What kind of world would we live in if some people were born being able to express themselves
and others could never achieve that?
I think expressing yourself isn't even something you would need to learn, it's very intuitive
if you look at preschool art.
The hard part is the execution, to create something that truly represents your thoughts
or feelings.
How you rate it, if it moves you or not is personal taste which you have every right
to but if you can't appreciate the story behind realistic paintings because you want
to concentrate on the accuracy, then I guess it's not the artist fault.
Last but not least I want to treat you with a few examples to illustrate what made me
question the art industry.
Sources will be in the description.
It's stuff that I came across while studying for university.
So when people tell me why my work isn't art and they hold up glorified standards of
authenticity and added values, I just recommend to do some research if those values are actually
true or not and what practice you are actually trying to defend.
There are prominent examples that should make you question art authorities.
Objects that were mistaken for art, art that has been destroyed by cleaning personnel,
because they didn't identify it as art.
Or even people that sell invisible art.
Those are stories that maybe some of you have heard of.
But I want to give you some concrete examples.
Richard Prince, an artist who got famous for photographing an already existing photograph
by swiss photographer Hannes Schmid and selling it for 1 Million, and a another one from the
same series for 3.4 Million.
Furthermore, in 2015 he took pictures of instagram posts to print them in canvas size and sell
them, giving no royalties to the original artists.
So Facebook is not the only one you should worry about using your pictures ;)
Roy lichtenstein is also very famous for taking comic panels by comic artists without giving
credit or royalties and turning them into paintings.
To make it even more spicy, in 2010 Manager of Intellectual Property for the Estate of
Roy Lichtenstein accused Elsinore Music of copyright infringement while there were just
using the same source material for their album cover art.
Why isn't that labeled plagiarism you ask?
The legitimacy comes from illustration being degraded to "not art", which frames this
process as a transformation, instead of a copy.
I am not sure why it would add uniqueness and authenticity, when an established artist
basically rips off one of these illustrations and put it on canvas, when the original artists
never had the chance to declare their work art in the first place, because they have
no authority.
Art people might argue they took "low art" illustration and turning it into "high art"
without even mentioning the market behind all of it.
But I smell double standards and injustice by the action to call one thing art and exclude
something else.
Duchamps toilet should have already made clear that art is a perspective and not a rating.
So again I cannot tell you what to consider art but all I can do is ask you to think for
yourself.
I could go on with more examples, but I am happy you listened to me for this long already,
so I am going to stop here.
Since I received a lot of comments about comfort zones, I want to talk about that topic as
well so I am probably going to make some similar videos in the future.
Anyway I hoped you like it or found it interesting and I hope to see you next time :)
