Get a job in Lille anyone tempted?
The office where im working at the moment is looking for an architect, my boss asked me if i had any connections with youngs architects from abroad...so i thought it might interest some easa people!
Its quite an uncommon office as we deal the most of the time with projects from others architects, we are specialized in the facades, so imagine Zaha Hadid is calling us to make the facade of her new building !!(and not only her haha)and we work as well as a typical architecture office.
The team is awesome, you learn a lot, you are really in charge of a project etc...
and the last but not least, Lille is a very brilliant city!, if you don't speak french its alright.
so if anybody is interested contact me
j.bart(at)vansanten(dot)fr
have a look at the website (it ain't finish yet)
www.vansanten.fr

looking forward to seeing you all this summer

A word of caution, some of the videos capture some brutal scenes, but i would recomend the film shot from a helicopter, though it focuses only around the town hall it gives an indication just how many people were in the city yesterday/last night. Consider that this is one of four screens that were erected. news.bbc.co.uk

Bad Buzz. Its a pain to lose a years work. I hope most people had files backed up externally. Its going to be interesting to see what will replace it.

It's hard to imagine how many problems this is causing! I hope you did a backup and had your models elsewhere. I just had a lecture with Axel Killian from TU delft yesterday and after hearing about the fire I told him about it. He thought I was joking, and I felt like it was a joke. So we found pictures on flickr and he saw his office burning. Quite sureal. Good luck! And se you in CPH erasmus students!

well for most neutrals the game was dull, but late on justice was done with the Russians coming out on top. Which left just a couple of questions, what would happen to the city now there were 150,000 (estimates keep rising) pissed up pissed off Rangers fans who essentially couldn't move due to sheer weight of numbers? Today Manchester isn't quite the city it was. Personally I think it was handled well by the city and the mess/clean up is only to be expected for such numbers. again here are some links to vids/pics and comment: news.bbc.co.uk news.uk.msn.com www.telegraph.co.uk news.sky.com www.independent.co.uk www.itv.com

by kotryna_lt @ 2008-05-14 20:14

couldn't help it, but i trust in your ability to forgive me for the small little stab at ye ;) i also am looking forward to a couple of weeks of nice entertainment and sportsmanship and may the better team win, both tonight and at the tournament and while i am not much of an UEFA fan, i do look forward for the CL final next week. enjoy the night!

while I know the blog is not technically (most definately) the place for me to emphasise my football (religious) beliefs, I can't help but rise to the bait. For me the only important European football match takes place on 21st May in Moscow. I, like most other United fans, live in the knowledge that United > England. As a pure football fan I can say Croatia did me a favour, it means this summer I can enjoy the games for what they are without distraction. For the record my money is on Holland, but then again it has been since about Euro...

while you still can ;) i'll be having a beer or two during the European Cup next month, cheering for my team, that are actually playing...

www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk www.itv.com www.iht.com I think I'll be heading out amongst it all tonight. There was talk the council underestimated the interest and attendance. Should be interesting to find out how the city is coping with the influx of such numbers into a few key parts of teh city centre.

Here is a link to BBC videos covering the cities build up to the UEFA cup final tonight. Its the second time in 7 years a major European final has been held in the city, but its fair to say that with the 100,000+ Rangers fans expected (today's wave started flooding in about 4am and promptly began the drinking session of a life time) it is a more rowdy affair then the all (classic) Italian European cup final at Old Traffod. Good luck to both Rangers and Zenit, here's to football and good natured banter! news.bbc.co.uk

Just saw it on our schools web. Hope everybody got out... We will prepare for a Dutch erasmus invasion!

by jerome @ 2008-05-13 22:41

sorry to see this happen. any ideas how it started. am sure along with the building is lots and lots of really important stuff belonging to students and i imagine that the stress of this loss will really hurt some people. look out for each other, expect that this will be very hard for people to get over. go for a walk, go to nature, take break, invite others for a stroll by a stream. be gentle.... time helps...
by duncan @ 2008-05-13 20:55

Seems we are now the 'generation before the fire'... building is now completely lost... its now 8pm and still burning: soon its gonna be the 12hr of fire. I think there's gonna be a lot of Dutch Erasmus students next year..

It seems that the Revolution is well and truly underway... (Careful now, that has always been a fully loaded word) Judging by whats going on in the US these days, its seems that the eco-revolution has truly taken off with a Bang... From this years upcoming USGBC GREEN BUILD EXPO to "George Clooney, Julia Roberts, Robert F Kennedy Jnr, and Al Gore, and the call for A NEW AMERICAN REVOLUTION" Which was the front cover of Vanity Fair's recent GREEN Issue In it (or possibly another edition, not sure, as don't read the mag myself) there is the following 6 page interview with Bill McDonough: Industrial Revolution,...

Wow, it looks really bad, hopefully nobody's hurt Did you leave a cigarette lit Marten!

shit! not a good way to finish the year...and not the first fire there either...I remember the pavilion went up in smokee not too long ago, ouch

Well done SF - this result was a hard-fought one and deserves a hearty bout of cross border congratulation.
by hugo_irl @ 2008-05-12 15:18

We just got news from our Dept. of Foreign Affairs that they will grant free visas to our guests to attend easa008! not only will this be of financial benefit to our guests but the accompanying support of the Dept. will be very useful should any problems arise. they will send us an official letter which we will scan and issue to all of our guests to add to their application documents. they will obviously inform the embassies/consulates directly too. once we receive this letter we will begin to issue our letters of invitation, along with any other important information regarding...
by irish_sean @ 2008-05-12 12:54

yes, you are right. I double checked every information available on the net about these issues and it resulted to me that our embassy is in Athens. Can you please give me a hint about what visa category it's better to apply for ? At this step of the processing, this would be the most important information. thanks, Klejdi* :-) PS. I used the name of the character of a wonderful book "Odin Modvalsen" when I signed up and have no chance to set it to my real name...
by odin modvalsen @ 2008-05-11 01:19

No, there is not an Irish embassy in Skopje. The one for the Macedonian citizens is in Bratislava, so we're going to send our documents there. I think you should ask in your ministry of foreign affairs in which country's Irish embassy you should apply for visa, I think it's not just any country.. Cheers :)
by nevenka_mkd @ 2008-05-10 17:53

Hello, I think we're neighbors down here...do you have any irish embassy in skopje ? Tirana doesn't have one and to get the visa one has to apply at the closest irish embassy - I think..I mean, people here apply through the Irish Emb. in Athens - Greece. An embassy in Skopje would be a really good reason to make a 3-day trip back in Macedonia, as I often visit there. Where do you get your visas from ? cheers
