反思婚礼浪漫：澳大利亚摄影师为盲人新娘制作触觉婚礼专辑_我的网站

A | 1月11日：如果你是一个婚礼摄影师，你会如何服务一个失明的顾客？最近，一名澳大利亚摄影师和一名摄影师联手为失明的新娘制作了一张特殊的触觉婚礼专辑。 London, Oct 18 (UNI) "The Seven Moons of Maali Almeida" by Sri Lankan Shehan Karunatilaka, a supernatural satire set amid a murderous civil war in the island nation, has won the Booker Prize.

The novel is about a photographer who wakes up dead, with a week to ask his friends to find his photos and expose the brutality of war, BBC and other media reported.

Camilla, the Queen Consort, presented the prize, and the author said it had been "an honour and a privilege" to be on the shortlist.

Karunatilaka said as he accepted his prize: "My hope is that in the not too distant future... Sri Lanka has understood that these ideas of corruption and race-baiting and cronyism have not worked and will never work."

The writer said he decided in 2009 to write "a ghost story where the dead could offer their perspective" after the end of the Sri Lankan civil war, "when there was a raging debate over how many civilians died and whose fault it was".

"I hope it's in print in 10 years... if it is, I hope it's written in a Sri Lanka that learns from its stories, and that Seven Moons will be in the fantasy section of the bookshop, next to the dragons, the unicorns and will not be mistaken for realism or political satire," the BBC reported

He added that he had "self-censored" a couple of short stories after author Salman Rushdie was stabbed in August, having faced years of death threats for his novel "The Satanic Verses", which some Muslims see as blasphemous.

"I was in the process of publishing a collection of short stories when this incident happened, and I discovered a couple which I don't think was offensive to any religion," Karunatilaka said.

"But my wife said, can you not do that? You've got two young kids. This story is not that good. Just leave it out."

He added that "this is something that hangs over all of us if we're writing in South Asia, especially writing about politics or religion", the BBC said.

Head judge Neil MacGregor praised the "scope and the skill, the daring, the audacity and hilarity" of the novel, calling it an "afterlife noir" which "takes the reader on a rollercoaster journey through life and death".

He said the judges' decision had been unanimous, adding all of the shortlisted books were "all really about one question, and that is what's the point of an individual life?"

The prestigious £50,000 prize, for a single work of fiction published in the UK in English, also gives the other five writers on the shortlist £2,500 each.

"The Seven Moons of Maali" is Karunatilaka's second novel, having previously won awards including the Commonwealth Book Prize for his debut book Chinaman, which was called the "second best cricket book of all time" by cricketers' almanac Wisden.

Born in 1975, the writer has also worked as an advertising copywriter, and his songs, scripts and stories have been published in Rolling Stone, GQ and National Geographic.

MacGregor, a former director of London's National Gallery and the British Museum, added that the judges read all 170 books put forward for the prize, then whittled them down to 30. They then re-read those, before deciding on the final six, which they read for a third time, the report said.

The other nominees were: "Glory" by NoViolet Bulawayo, "The Trees" by Percival Everett, "Treacle Walker" by Alan Garner, "Small Things Like These" by Claire Keegan and "Oh William!" by Elizabeth Strout.

The Booker-winning novel tells the story of the photographer of its title, who in 1990 wakes up dead in what seems like a celestial visa office. With no idea who killed him, Maali has seven moons to contact the people he loves most and lead them to a hidden cache of photos of civil war atrocities that will rock Sri Lanka, the Daily Mirror reported.

The judges were unanimous in their decision to award the prize to Karunatilaka, according to the chair.

Receiving his prize, Karunatilaka addressed the people of Sri Lanka in Tamil and Sinhalese. He summarised what he said in English: “I write these books for you… Let’s keep sharing these stories.”

The Seven Moons of Maali Almeida is published by the independent press Sort of Books. This year is the first time a book by the publisher has been longlisted for the prize.

Karunatilaka has become the second Sri Lankan-born author to win, following Michael Ondaatje, who won in 1992 with "The English Patient".

In his Guardian review, Tomiwa Owolade said the book’s “scenarios are often absurd … but executed with a humour and pathos that ground the reader”. He added: “Karunatilaka has done artistic justice to a terrible period in his country’s history.”

Karunatilaka, was born in Galle, Sri Lanka, in 1975 and grew up in Colombo.

UNI MR。根据外国媒体peta pixel新闻，摄影师james day和摄影师shaun拍摄了一对名叫steph和rob的夫妇的婚礼。斯蒂芬患有锥杆营养不良症。这是一种遗传性眼病。

B | 在见到丈夫罗布之前，她完全失明了。为了创造一个斯蒂芬可以珍惜的婚礼视频，工作室将拍摄尽可能多的音频和叙事在婚礼当天。“从佩塔像素，”詹姆斯和我们自己将试图向斯蒂芬描述每一个细节，从太阳的方向到风景，亲戚脸上的表情，斯蒂芬穿着多漂亮，”摄影师说。每次我们向斯蒂芬描述一个场景时，都会提醒我们，能够亲眼看到这些细节是多么幸运。当我们注视着爱人的眼睛，当我们的孩子长大，当波涛翻滚，太阳升起时，我们如何看待别人的眼光？Day还想出了一个主意，每天给Steph提供10种织物，每种织物都含有不同的油。通过触摸和闻，斯蒂芬可以回到婚礼中那些特殊的时刻。在佩塔皮克斯结婚几周后，这对夫妇第一次飞到澳大利亚的私人影院放映他们的婚礼电影。Day给了这对来自澳大利亚视觉公司的纹理印花和触觉婚礼专辑。肖恩说：“这些照片让斯蒂芬和她的母亲琳达可以用手在印刷品上触摸凸起的轮廓和阴影区域，这样他们就可以真正想象照片中的场景。尽管他们看不到颜色，但他们可以触摸和想象婚礼当天的彩虹。
