Chapter 10: Berlin

Samsung Electronics has provided the author of this article with the mentioned digital imaging device.

Hey there! Long time no see :) Anyway, I’m back, not that any of you were waiting for me, but hey… I like lying to myself.

Anyway, as you may now I’m argentine and I’ve lived my whole life in Argentina. Well, until past may when I moved to Switzerland. Fact is, i had to go and get my Visa in Berlin. I made a very short trip there and I took some of the photos you can see now.

What can I say about Berlin…. it’s just one of those cities that is so cool you always have to come back. I was there three times and I simply love it. It might not be the nicest city in the world, but it’s just so interesting and so full of life.. ohh…. I just want to go back there for a few more days!

Anyway… what if I just post of the pictures. Much better than reading what I have to say, huh? ;)

The traffic lights are funny. People are represented with this green man with a hat. Of course you can buy T-shirts and all type of merchandising featuring this man :)

Another trademark of Berlin is the bear. Of course there is also lots of merchandising featuring him.

South Africa – From Cape Town to Winelands

Samsung Electronics has provided the author of this article with the mentioned digital imaging device.

Samsung ST550(TL225) │ 1/750s │ f3.7 │ 5.3mm │ ISO 80

My group has decided to spend a day in the wine valley to discover how the good South African wine is produced.

Samsung ST550(TL225) │ 1/60s │ f4.4 │ 13.7mm │ ISO 80

Samsung ST550(TL225) │ 1/180s │ f3.5 │ 4.9mm │ ISO 80

From Cape Town we went to Stellenbosch, situated about 50 kilometers east. It is the second oldest European settlement in the Western Cape province.

Samsung ST550(TL225) │ 1/15s │ f3.5 │ 4.9mm │ ISO 400

The South African wine industry produces about 1,000,000,000 litres of wine annually. Stellenbosch is the primary location for viticulture and viticulture research.

The small city looks like a cenarium. The time seems to be stopped there.

Samsung ST550(TL225) │ 1/180s │ f9.1 │ 4.9mm │ ISO 80

We visited the Village Museum. It shows the four historical Stellenbosch house’s built in four different city moments:

THE SCHREUDEURHUIS – 1680 – 1720

BLETTERMANHUIS – 1750 – 1790

GROSVENOR HOUSE – 1800 to 1830

OM BERGH – 1850 – 1870

Samsung ST550(TL225) │ 1/350s │ f4.9 │ 16.3mm │ ISO 80

We visited three different wine yards and understood a little bit more about wine production…

Samsung ST550(TL225) │ 1/45s │ f3.5 │ 4.9mm │ ISO 200

All vineyards offer wine tasting, we taste lots of kinds of wine and almost got drunk.

The third post will be…from Wineland to Durban…

kisses and hugs

Samsung T10 Sample Video

This is a sample video recorded by Samsung T10 in Germany.

Samsung Smile Index in Austria :D

It turned out that people living in Vienna are the smile champion in Austria. This interesting result came from Samsung Smile Index.

A survey of the smile index was conducted by Samsung Electronics Austria and Peter Hajek, a renowned market researcher, in some of the main cities in Austria, September 2010.

Researchers installed 2 pieces of Samsung digital camera PL150(TL210) on the street nearby the traffic lights. When those who wait for the green light were smiling, one of the cameras took pictures and the other recorded the smiling people automatically in Smile shot mode.

Its result showed that the smile champion in Austria was placed in order as follows: Vienna, Graz, Eisenstadt, Salzburg, Klagenfurt etc.

And when it comes to the smile this study showed that women smile more than men in all regions. Let’s take a look at the chart below.

Gerald Reitmayr, Head of Consumer Electronics, Samsung Electronics Austria, explained “With the Samsung Smile Index, we wanted to investigate not only the technology aspect but also the social and psychology components of theme ‘Smile’.”

About the digital camera Samsung PL150(TL210)

In addition to the Smile Shot Function, the new Samsung digital camera PL150(TL210) also has Dual Display. Thanks to the front additional display, PL150(TL210) is capable of the perfect self-portraits.

South Africa – Cape Town

Samsung Electronics has provided the author of this article with the mentioned digital imaging device.

I’ve just started work in a new architecture practice and suddenly I travelled to South Africa for a short period of work!

The mission was discover how the FIFA WORLD CUP is organized, how the city is transformed just for 4 weeks…why the South Africans had been so proud to host this big event…

Samsung ST550(TL225) │ 1/500s │ f/4.7 │ ISO 80 │ 4.7mm

Samsung ST550(TL225) │ 1/180s │ f/3.5 │ ISO 80 │ 4.9mm

This new architecture practice is involved in some stadium projects for 2014 FIFA WORLD CUP BRAZIL, so nothing better than visit a previous host country to learn!

We went to South Africa to visit three cities: Cape Town, Durban and Jo’burg.

Cape Town is an amazing city. We Brazilians say that CT is an Rio de Janeiro that who worked!

The city is guarded by imposing Table Mountain.

Samsung ST550(TL225) │ 1/500s │ f/4.9 │ ISO 80 │ 16.3mm

Samsung ST550(TL225) │ 1/350s │ f/4.4 │ ISO 80 │ 13.7mm

As a foreigner view, the city is perfect, but is known that the recent past is still present in everyday society.

The Cape Town Stadium is located in a place called Green Point, where before the WC, was a Golf field and the old Green Point Stadium.

It’s almost 2500m far from the city centre.

Samsung ST550(TL225) │ 1/125s │ f/5.7 │ ISO 80 │ 20.7mm

Samsung ST550(TL225) │ 1/500s │ f/4.9 │ ISO 80 │ 16.3mm

Despite of The Fan Fest area organized in the city centre, the point for tourists was the Waterfront, a place where there are lots of good restaurants and shops, but in this place, you feel that you are in London, Paris, or other European country, not in South Africa.

Let’s go back to the main interest in this trip…the stadiums.

The Cape Town Stadium – Green Point -”African Reinassence Stadium – is an amazing structure!

Designed for almost 66000 spectators, the stadium was the main stage for important games, as the semi-final…

Unfortunately…the stadium pictures were in my stolen memory card…so have a look in a few city pictures.

Let me keep some more information for the next posts…Wine Valley…
