Once again my work life (two jobs, as with so many others in the world) has interfered with my Esperanto studies and plans. I was finally able to force a break to visit lernu!, which I hadn't done in a while... and I was pleasantly surprised to see one special component of the 2010 Summer Esperanto Study this July in Slovakia: a "Instigi Kreemon" (inspire creativity) seminar:

This past week I got an unexpected reaction to my plans for my net-studio, which was to be called Konstelacio.
All over a planned website, no less.
Just what we didn't need during any Universala Kongreso: a vandalized bust of Zamenhof.
But here it is, complete with photo:

Very briefly: Vinilkosmo has apparently woken up to the reality of the music biz, and this URL should say it all:

When I first began studying Esperanto in 2005, my hope that was that I would be able to create something with it — say new movies or the like. I did finally create one video short last year, in response to the financial crisis involving certain U.S. banking giants deemed "too big to fail," among other things.
I guess you know you are still very much a "komencanto" when you make naive assumptions about words in Esperanto.
Especially when you decide to use Esperanto in a hobby like digital movie making, as I am doing.
Mi nun estas sendependa video–reĝisoro. Bv. regardi la pruvon…
It has happened, folks. My first video employing Esperanto (in the intertitles and supertitles) is up for the viewing now:

The last time I blogged about China Radio International's Esperanto offerings, I had a hangup with the way their wrote and read their reports.
But now… I can't access their shows at all.
Ĝi estas oficiala: nun eksistas esperantlingva versio de Fajrovulpo (Mozilla Firefox)!
Last year, I purchased from the UEA Katalogo a short video DVD (12 minutes) about a teacher in Togo who looked to improve the educational system in his country.
Now said teacher, an Esperantist, is in trouble. With the UEA, no less.
