22.01.2022 Wishing you all a safe and happy Christmas! With much love from the Karens !!

22.01.2022 We are saddened to hear the passing away of one of our Ukrainian community pioneers - Yurij Mishalow (1928-2010). Yurij became active early in the history of the Ukrainian community in Sydney in 1953 he was already on the board of the Ukrainian Students' Union and was writing articles for the Ukrainian newspaper, The Free Thought. He gained qualifications as an electronic engineer in 1955 from Sydney University, the first Ukrainian to graduate from this university. Yurij wo...rked professionally first at AWA, and then 21 years at ABC-TV, but he also made his professional services available to help with Ukrainian community events. An early adopter of computerisation, Yurij single-handedly created Ukrainian cyrillic fonts for use in typesetting of Ukrainian publications in Australia, when no such fonts were commonly available. Yurij Mishalow was active on various Ukrainian committees, including being involved with the Ukrainian Scout leadership in the 1950s, the board of the Ukrainian Central School in the 1960s, and the Ukrainian Study Group Forum in the 1990s. A modest, but very capable man, Yurij used his knowledge of audio to record his son Victor's, bandura playing in digital audio - a ground-breaking technique at that time. He helped Victor to professionally produce a number of mainstream records and CDs of bandura classical and folk music, which have been sold internationally. Perhaps his contribution to the Ukrainian community can also be measured in another way the legacy of his children, both who promote Ukrainian culture daughter Roxolana is active in Ukrainian schooling and eduction, and son Victor is a world-famous bandura player and musicologist. May Yurij rest in blessed peace.

19.01.2022 - . ... An interesting review of the new Ukrainian-Hollywood film "Zakhar Berkut", posted on the UA (,...) Facebook page (Reviews, impressions of Ukrainian books, films). From the sound of it, unless you like Ivan Franko's story characterised by Rambo-like flavours and enjoy American accents in films set in Europe, it may be better to just read the book.... ;-)

12.01.2022 This film should be seen by every young person of Ukrainian heritage. It is the best documentary available to graphically explain the difficult and problematic history of Ukraine during the time of the mid-20th Century when it was a victim of brutal invasion and suppression from both Russia and Germany. It is explains clearly the dilemma Ukrainians faced when confronted by regimes intent on conquering and enslaving the Ukrainian peoples. It will explain why millions of Ukra...inians chose to emigrate to the West after WWII rather than return to their "homeland"... Narrated by Hollywood actor of Ukrainian descent, Jack Palance, the film chronicles the struggle between the Nazi and Soviet regimes, from a Ukrainian perspective. The documentary recounts the events in Ukraine on the brink of the Second World War, during the Soviet occupation of Western Ukraine (19391941), the German-Soviet War, the Nazi occupation of Ukraine and the second Soviet occupation of Western Ukraine (1944). The impact of these events, which claimed 8 to 10 million Ukrainian lives, is depicted through segments on the scorched-earth policies of both powers; the tragedy of the Jews; and the 2.3 million Ukrainians taken as slave labourers (Ostarbeiters). The Ukrainians struggle against the Nazi occupiers and the Ukrainian Insurgent Armys fightagainst both totalitarian powersfor Ukraines independence are is portrayed. The film also deals with the forcible repatriation of Ukrainians to the Soviet Union, Displaced Persons (D.P.) camps and emigration. Between Hitler and Stalin features eyewitness accounts, documentary material, rare film footage, photos and documents obtained from myriad sources. The film is in English, though with Russian subtitles. The Ukrainian version was expunged from Youtube for some reason.

03.01.2022 One of the challenges when digitizing and restoring old photographs is dealing with prints made on patterned paper. The texture on the print shows up very clearly when scanning and is quite tricky to remove. There are a number of techniques that can be used, with most of them requiring making multiple, rotated scans or using different, manipulated layers in a graphics program. Consider using a techniqe called FFT (Fast Fourier Transform). The magic using this technique can be seen in the "before" and "after" images below. Because the details are very fine in the original (eg. notice the pearls in the necklace are smaller than the individual repeating texture pattern), techiques using "blurring" will destroy detail. However, you can see that the FFT technique removes the pattern, while leaving the details.
