We spoke with Grecy Pérez, director of the Silbo Gomero chair, dedicated to carrying out studies and disseminating this communicative practice. The University of La Laguna and the Cabildo of La Gomera have signed an agreement to formalize the launch of an institutional chair on the Gomero whistle dedicated to carrying out studies and disseminating this communicative practice. The institutional chair, which will be directed by Professor Grecy Pérez Amores, from the Department of Sociology and Anthropology, will have a financial endowment from the Cabildo of La Gomera of 30,000 euros. The idea is that through the new academic direction the chair investigates more anthropological aspects and leaves the philological aspects of previous stages a little aside. This initiative was created in its day as a cultural chair, and now it has become institutional in nature, that is, with a permanent financial endowment and greater projection within the university environment. In fact, the president of the Cabildo of La Gomera himself maintained that for the chair to have a long run it must necessarily be linked to the university, where research and new knowledge are generated.
Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity The agreement includes a program of activities that must be approved by the mixed commission created as a result of this agreement, and which includes training proposals for people interested in the Gomero whistle as Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity recognized by UNESCO. , both in course and workshop format for the debate and presentation of research results. Likewise, the launch of a website for the chair has also been planned to disseminate the projects carried out in this area, and which in turn serves

Project implementation In the research part, the implementation of the first phase of the project 'Study of the attitudes and interest of teachers in the Canary Islands in the implementation of the Gomero whistle among the curricular contents of ESO' stands out. The agreement also includes the implementation of the first phase of another project, in this case dedicated to 'Analysis, codification and valuation of the census of whistlers', with the idea of working with the census already developed in previous years to delve deeper into data, detect gaps and analyze results. Filmmaker Javier Chavanel talks to us about the latest film releases and the end of the actors' strike.
The filmmaker Javier Chavanel talks to us this week about Saben That, the new film by David Trueba based on the life of the comedian Eugenio, in a film that shows the artist's doubts and the role of his wife, who is the one who believes in his talent. . The work of actor David Verdaguer stands out as outstanding, as he manages to transform into the character, "making us laugh with the jokes we already know." Likewise, he reviews the new film by Carlota Pereda, author of Piglets , which is now presented to us by La Ermita , from the hand of Filmax. A film that, in Chavanel's opinion, deserves a distinction in a career "that goes like a motorcycle" End of the actors' strike Chavanel echoes the end of the actors' strike, after 118 days of conflict and which has been the longest in history. This break has disrupted the plans of many production companies, so he predicts that 2024 will be "a bit of a wasteland" in terms of releases. In any case, the agreement has left both parties satisfied, with a salary increase for the middle classes of actors and a greater participation in the profits. Likewise, the use of artificial intelligence is limited, prohibiting the impersonation of actors.
