Ghosts of Gone Birds

Some of the unluckiest of our feathered friends, driven to extinction centuries ago, are being brought to life again by artists such as Sir Peter Blake, Jamie Hewlett and Ralph Steadman for a London exhibition. Film-maker Ceri Levy has organised it in the hope of raising awareness of the plight of endangered birds. "Birds connect with us far more than we realise," he says . "People respond to them – everybody has a story about a bird."

Ghosts of Gone Birds is at the Rochelle School, London E2, from 2 to 23 November. Visit facebook.com/ghostsofgonebirds

Steve Jobs 1955-2011

Tenho que agradecer a maneira como Steve Jobs foi capaz de mudar a minha maneira de ver o mundo. Os produtos saídos da sua imaginação mostraram-nos que é possível conciliar trabalho, divertimento, produtividade, emoção, inventividade, tudo numa só máquina. Foi tornando cada novo cliente um fã capaz de defender a marca com unhas e dentes. Steve Jobs foi mais que um inventor ou mesmo um vendedor. Foi, isso sim, um grande evangelizador, capaz de tornar a sua marca uma religião.
Deu-nos também aquele que, para qualquer cinéfilo, é o seu maior legado, a Pixar. A cada nova ideia Steve Jobs reescrevia a história da humanidade.
No dia em que desapareceu um dos maiores visionários da nossa Era, apenas posso prestar a minha homenagem ao som de outro génio que viu o seu tempo chegar ao fim cedo demais.
