Polish Artist Artur Zmijewski creates video works that
can be both intriguing and disturbing. In “Singing Lesson 2,” the
artist films deaf teenagers as they learn to sing choral music by Bach.
These are excerpts from the 16-minute work.
Click now to watch the video because I’m not sure if it’ll be available in archives.

What is Deaf Pixel? Come visit the site to find more about it!
Why Deaf Pixel? As a webmaster of Deaf Resource Center, I am finding more and more deaf related websites via ezines, news, submission, press releases, and almost never from search engines like Google because it takes a very very long time to get indexed on major search engines!
One method to speed up the website on search engines is to be linked by websites with higher PR (Page Rank). Deaf Resource Center currently has a PR of 6, and DeafPixel has a PR of 5. So having two links from both websites will certainly speed up the time to get your website not only indexed, but to show up higher on certain search keywords.
So check out DeafPixel and looking forward to your website submission!

I received the TDI Big Blue Book yesterday. I checked the New York Listing.
I recognized many names and addresses in Rochester, NY. Over 90% are still listed with the 716 area code! Un-freaking-believable!
When was the Rochester area code 585 in operation? November 15, 2001! Over FIVE years ago!
How difficult would it be to set up a database function matching Rochester NY zip codes to the area code, and then automate the area code change?
Why wait for the subscribers to change? And I can see that many don’t even bother. Even my fax number is wrong. Fine with me to make junk faxers waste their money.
Callers beware - odds are that you’ll be wasting long distance charges on wrong phone number, and can’t even hear the operator telling you that it’s a wrong number.
Remember - Rochester NY area code is 585!

I’ve gotten over 100 spams comments in the last 24 hours. It’s not good enough that the comments are moderated as not only I get them in email, but I have to log on and go through the junk and delete them.
So I’ve activated a plugin that’s available in WordPress 2.0 called Akismet.
Presto! No more spam!
If your comments are legitimate, it will bypass Akismet. However, I will be monitoring Akismet to avoid “false positive”.
