FRIDAY FEB, 6th 2009

 « Test your addiction to the cellphone »

« Turn your cellphone offfor 24 hours ! How long can you resist? »

During this first day, you will come back to a quality of life you had lost with less stress and more human communication. It is also an opportunity to debate on how useless it is to equip your children with a cellphone: the wrong security excuse ! Risk for his or her health! And to launch this preventing message :

«Not more than 2 minutes on the cellphone, no headakes » (1)

«No SMS in public places, otherwise an anti cellphone law decision may hang it up."

The target is to increase cellphone user awareness so as to prevent a policy similar to the anti smoking French regulations of Jan 2nd 2008 to happen. More and more silent zone may result in even less respect for others.

NIRTH OF THIS IDEA

Phil Marso an independent writer and at the origin of this public meeting
since 2001 is organizing 3 days to reflect on the cellphone, which has changed the way human beings communicate.

MIND ATTACK : PERSONAL ROBERY

Phil Marso published in 1999 an investigation story about the cellphone « Tueur de Portable sans mobile apparent » (Ed.Megacom-ik), . It is the first whodunit that uses the cellphone into a crime scene. Ten years later, the same author publishes « Braquage de neurones ! Tu meurs ! ».
This piece of writing targets teenager prevention against buying and using cellphones, wifi, 3G, etc. earlier than ever.
