Korean Financial Regulator Planning to Directly Regulate Cryptocurrency Exchanges
The Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU) under the Financial Services Commission (FSC) has disclosed a plan to directly regulate cryptocurrency exchanges and bring them into the regulatory system. Currently, the FIU indirectly controls cryptocurrency exchanges through administrative guidance to banks.An FIU official said on Aug. 6 that the government will enhance the transparency of cryptocurrency transactions by introducing a "cryptocurrency exchange licensing system" recommended by the Financial Action Task Force (FATF).Lee Tae-hoon, head of administration and planning at the FIU, said, "If an amendment to the Act on Reporting and Use of Certain Financial Transaction Information, which reflects the FATF's international standards for cryptocurrencies, passes the National Assembly, it will be possible to prevent money laundering through cryptocurrencies."Lee was speaking at a public hearing on the enactment of a law to improve transparency in virtual asset trading held at the National Assembly Member's Office building."If the amendment is approved by lawmakers, we can raise the effectiveness of regulations by shifting from the current indirect regulation through commercial banks to direct regulation," Lee said.In this regard, crypto exchanges and legal circles pointed…
The City of Seoul Will Create a Cryptocurrency for Citizen Rewards
The Seoul Metropolitan Government will establish its first blockchain-based administrative services in November, according to a report in the Korean-language blockinpress.At a conference held last month and attended by city officials and representatives of the private sector, specifics of the roll out were discussed, with timelines and goals established. The meeting seemed to revive an initiative that had lost some momentum since first being announced late last year.Three priorities were set for completion by the November deadline. The city's blockchain points system will be introduced and residents of Seoul will receive S-coins for the use of public services. They will be able to redeem those points for rewards. Services that generate the coins include paying taxes and participating in public opinion polls.Seoul's point system will integrated with ZeroPay, a city-government sponsored QR-code-enabled network established last December. It allows customers to pay for goods and services using their phones and does not charge merchants commissions.In addition to the S-coin, a blockchain service for submitting qualifications without paper documents is also on the list for completion by November, as is the enhancing of the Seoul Citizens Card with…
Singapore Considers Tax Waiver on Cryptocurrency Purchases
Singapore's Inland Revenue Authority (IRAS) recently put forward a proposal to waive sales tax on goods or services paid for in cryptocurrency or similar digital assets. The proposal intends to help spur development within the local blockchain and cryptocurrency industry.Existing tax laws have historically resulted in Singaporean residents being excluded from initial coin offerings (ICO's) launched in the country. Singapore's goods and services tax (GST) means residents wanting to get involved in ICO's have to pay seven percent tax on their purchases."The IRAS recognizes that taxing cryptocurrencies which function as a medium of exchange results in two tax points – once on the purchase of the cryptocurrency and again on its use as payment for goods and services subject to GST," stated a draft e-tax guide from the IRAS.Singapore has long been seen as a highly crypto-positive nation for its favorable laws regarding cryptocurrency but still lags behind competing regions like Japan and Hong Kong. If the new tax policy is implemented, it will align the Asian financial hub with other progressive crypto nations and boost blockchain innovation on home soil.A Strong Contrast to…

The bulls were charging during Asian trading today as bitcoin reached $11,800 according to Tradingview.Daily volume has cranked up to $20 billion once again as millions of dollars in BTC shorts on BitMEX were liquidated. On the daily chart, bitcoin is now into its seventh consecutive green candle which has pushed it back above the 50-day moving average indicating a strengthening of the uptrend.The CME futures chart could offer an indication of where the next resistance levels lie and trader 'CryptoFibonacci' has been eyeing it:"Another gap created to the downside.

SEC Commissioner: US Could Draw Crypto Policy From These Countries
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) could learn from other countries when finalizing its own crypto regulation, Commissioner Hester Peirce explains. While highlighting peculiar and notable features of the U.S. system, the commissioner emphasizes cross-border considerations, detailing applicable crypto frameworks of several countries.Importance of Cross-Border ConsiderationsSEC Commissioner Hester Peirce explained last week her agency's approach to regulating crypto assets and how the U.S. could draw from other countries' regulatory frameworks in setting its own policies. Her speech was given in Singapore at the "SUSS Convergence Forum: Inclusive Blockchain, Finance, and Emerging Technologies," hosted by Singapore University of Social Sciences (SUSS).Among the topics she discussed was cross-border crypto regulation. Peirce, known in the crypto community as Crypto Mom, suggested that "The U.S. SEC can look to our counterparts overseas for ideas in untangling some of our most difficult legal and policy questions in this area.""Because so much of the activity is taking place outside the United States, we have to think about our regulation with a sensitivity for cross-border considerations, cooperation, and what I call co-learning." Peirce elaborated:Crypto regulation affords…

More than half the year is behind us and the cryptocurrency ecosystem continues to move forward, showing relentless growth over the last six months. 2019 has also seen a new theme arise as speculators believe the cryptocurrency ecosystem is experiencing an influx of institutional interest and regulatory crackdowns. A variety of cryptocurrency research reports analyzing the first two quarters of the year show the space has seen a lot of growth, despite regulatory headwinds.The Cryptoconomy 2019: Institutionalization, Facebook and Exchange TokensCoinshares and cryptocurrency corporation Circle have recently published very detailed research reports concerning the digital asset space over the last six months. Over the last few weeks, the market capitalization of all cryptocurrencies has ranged between $250-300 billion. The U.K.-based firm Coinshares' H1 report says that the last six months should be considered a net positive for the young industry. "The continuing professionalisation of the protocol services and corresponding technologies has been impressive and most assets have reacted by recovering substantially from last year's brutal bear market," explains Coinshares' H1 study. It notes that there's been "no shortage of speculation" when it…

Analyst Says: Bitcoin Bull Run 'Hasn't Started'
Bitcoin proponents discarded fresh criticism from gold bug Peter Schiff this week after he suggested the cryptocurrency was losing popularity despite its price rise.SCHIFF: BITCOIN VOLUME 'MUCH LOWER' THAN 2017As a Twitter discussion which began July 29 revealed, Schiff, who is well known as a cryptocurrency skeptic, claimed Bitcoin's 2019 bull run produced lower volumes than the previous one in December 2017. "If Bitcoin really is gaining in popularity, why was volume on the most recent rally so much lower than during the 2017 rally?" he wrote. "If interest and adoption have peaked, so too has price. That's why this rally peaked so far below the 2017 high, and why the 2019 low will not hold!"Schiff's suspicions quickly raised eyebrows among commentators. As reported, the past weeks have in fact seen daily Bitcoin network volumes hit repeated all-time highs. Financial counsellor Phillip Kennedy was the first to counter the accusations, linking to volume statistics from monitoring resource CoinMarketCap. July volumes, he noted, were 300% higher than those of December 2017. Schiff then countered with data from Blockchain.com, which provides limited volume calculations presenting a much lower…
Philippines' UnionBank Launches Payments-Focused Stablecoin
In a bid to drive greater financial inclusion, Philippines-based UnionBank has launched a payments-focused stablecoin pegged to the Philippine peso.A report from PhilStar Global on July 26 revealed that the new, bank-backed cryptocurrency — dubbed PHX — is being implemented on UnionBank's i2i platform. Rural banks and Philippines' main financial networkI2i is an acronym for island-to-island, institution-to-institution, and individual-to-individual and is the name given to the blockchain-based clearing system that connects UnionBank to rural banks in the country.Arvie de Vera, UnionBank's senior vice president, has outlined that the UnionBank-issued PHX is designed to function as "a stable store of value, medium of exchange and is a programmable token with self-executing logic. It enables transparent and automatic execution of payments." According to PhilStar Global, buy, transfer, redemption transactions and domestic remittances using PHX have been already been completed by three rural banks — Summit Rural Bank in Luzon, Progressive Bank in Visayas and Cantilan Bank in Mindanao — on the i2i network. De Vera has added that the stablecoin resolves reconciliation issues and eases audit and compliance issues. Initially, the currency will be available to i2i network…
PwC: Proposed Crypto Tax Cut in Singapore to Help Crypto Business
Singapore's plans to exempt certain digital currencies from the Goods and Services Tax (GST) would benefit cryptocurrency-related businesses, according to a partner in PwC Hong Kong's corporate tax practice.As reported by Hong Kong's English language newspaper South China Morning Post on July 29, Gwenda Ho argued that the Singapore government's proposal to drop the seven per cent GST for cryptocurrencies when using them to pay for goods and services would have a positive impact on crypto exchanges, asset managers and blockchain entrepreneurs.Per Ho, the adoption of the proposed law would also put Singapore's sales tax regime on an equal footing with those of other jurisdictions such as Hong Kong, Australia, Japan, Switzerland, and the European Union. Ho stated that, as long as the token has the features of a digital payment token as defined by the rules, such proceeds from initial coin offerings could also be exempted from GST. Ho continued:"While this proposal would improve Singapore's competitiveness in its GST treatment on cryptocurrencies, Hong Kong in comparison is completely free of any sales tax so there is one less tax issue to be concerned about for cryptocurrency industry participants."Singapore's Inland Revenue…
US Defense Department to Develop Blockchain Cybersecurity Shield
The U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) is looking to forge a blockchain cybersecurity shield.In a report published on July 12 titled Digital Modernization Strategy, the DoD outlined several ways to advance the nation's digital defenses. This includes the integration of cloud and quantum computing, artificial intelligence, and improved communications through distributed ledgers.In fact, DARPA, the research wing of the Department is already experimenting with the technology "to create a more efficient, robust, and secure platform," to secure messaging and process transactions, reports Decrypt.Specifically, blockchain may be deployed between units and headquarters as well as intelligence officers and the Pentagon. As part of the Digital Identity Management program, the agency may also issue a digital token that authenticates an agent's identity.The DoD is also experimenting with the technology to facilitate the creation of an unhackable code to secure its databases.As part of the second Cryptographic Modernization program, in effect since 2000, the Department is replacing old hardware and cryptographic systems to meet the challenges of the improved computing power of the nation's adversaries.Citing the trustless, transparent, and immutable attributes of blockchain the Department writes:"Blockchain…

Payday advances are costly but convenient at the best, together with beginning of a downwards debt spiral at the worst. When you are strapped, where else is it possible to switch? You may have more choices than you might think.
Take note: High-cost credit that is short-term improper for sustained borrowing over long stretches and could be pricey as a way of longer-term borrowing from the bank.
When an expenditure crops up and you also end up in short supply of money, pay day loans should be considered a resort that is last. They're simple and fast, but eye-wateringly pricey. Continue reading "15 options to payday advances"

Scientific Achievement
Measurements of 25Mg variable temperature solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (VT ss-NMR), and muon spin relaxation (μSR) in 3 spinel oxides reveal experimental magnesium hoping barriers as low as ∼0.6 eV, in agreement with independent density functional theory (DFT) predictions.
Significance and Impact
The measured barriers of magnesium cation migration are sufficiently low to support electrode function at reasonable particle sizes, challenging the existing notion that cation migration in oxides is the primary limiting factor hindering the development of functional, high-energy magnesium cathodes.
Research Details
- Three spinel oxides containing Mg and either Mn or Cr were synthesized with high control of cation distribution in the structure.
- The dynamics within the oxides, independently probed by NMR and mSR, are consistent with migration barriers for magnesium cations that are as low as 0.6 eV. The observed values are consistent with predictions by DFT.
- Cation ordering led to the lowest migration barriers.
- Deintercalation of magnesium was possible in the oxides with the lowest migration barriers.

Customers can sit inside the bar and order their favorite foods from a limited menu. Saturday they served 2,000 wings.
Owner Jeff Hulsmann said things won't be completely back to normal until the kitchen is done.
"We'll have a grand re-opening when we rebuild our kitchen. So right now we are still under a fire investigation, everybody kind of blames everybody else. They all want to find out the cause and effect and figure out who's paying. We don't who's paying yet, but we don't care who's paying, we are insured. It will just take us longer to open our kitchen because of the investigation," said Hulsmann.
Hulsmann anticipates those repairs will be done between 2.5 and 3 months.

Where Islamic studies is the only form of learning
For More of This and Other Stories, Grab Your Copy of the Standard Newspaper.Billow dropped out of school in Class One, but his determination drove him to learn and memorise the Quran. "We teach the children to memorise the Quran but that alone is not enough. They need to learn skills in a formal system so that they have a chance in modern life," says Billow, who uses the most basic teaching aids to do his work. Punctuality The instruction materials are not your ordinary books but wooden planks on which verses of the Quran are scribbled using paint made from crushed charcoal mixed with water to form paste. There is only one Quran which is shared among the learners. One notable feature of the Duksi system is the way time is managed. Starting at five in the morning, the children learn up to 7am after which they go back home for breakfast. They should be back to school in half an hours time, to continue with studies until 10am when they take another one hour break. They then learn for one hour from 11am, then break for 60-minute lunch. They then learn until 4pm after which they break for supper to return at 6pm to learn around a bonfire until 8pm when they break for the night. The school runs from Monday to Thursday and leaves Friday free for worship. Billow says the minimum enrolment age is five years. The oldest child in the current class is a 10-year-old. The other feature in the system is the cane with which Billow disciplines errant learners. "We do not use it a lot, just a bit to ensure that there is discipline during class time," he says. Still, parents in Balatraha fear their children are missing out. They want the government to hear their cry, and give their children formal education. "It is so ironical that when it comes to education, the government cannot reach us. But on the Huduma Number, election and census, they got here. What an irony?" says Mohammed Osman, a parent. Humanitarian organisation Save The Children says ways are being sought to integrate the Duksi system into the formal education, especially among the nomadic pastoralist communities. Aden Abdullahi, the organisation's head of Wajir office, said this will offer nomadic children a chance to learn the key aspects of education, especially health and environment. Wajir County's Education officials acknowledge there may be need to put up a school there but "there are a lot of factors to consider". Security Hussein Osman, the Wajir Director of Education, said the number of children and the safety standards involved are considered before a decision to put up a school is made. "After we have ascertained all these, we register the school and then ask the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) to post teachers," he said.

IDTechEx has released its latest report Electric Vehicles 2020-2030, including electric vehicle forecasts in 100 categories.
Peter Harrop, who led the research team, said car manufacturers were still playing catch-up to leading electric vehicle manufacturers.
"Traditional automotive companies wish to keep the internal combustion engine going for a bit longer," he said. "Many have revealed how far they are behind Tesla in pure electric by bringing out what are essentially copies of Tesla powertrains from six years ago but not all. Hyundai Kia, for example, has one-year waiting lists for its excellent pure-electric cars. They will clear that delay, releasing pent-up demand. Others will rapidly copy that success."
The report's executive summary highlights the future of EV manufacturers including Tesla leadership and IDTechEx's estimate of timeline to 2035, as well as looking at the correctness of Tesla's strategy.
Harrop also noted that they are forecasting plug-in car sales at zero in 2030 attributable to pure-electric vehicles rapid advancement in technology.

Who says that XML has a negligible effect on performance anymore? It's probably true that in traditional document processing scenarios the percentage of overall app time spent actually parsing and transforming XML is so small that optimizing it would be pointless, but in high volume messaging and database scenarios there's clear evidence that XML processing is often a bottleneck. The main current dispute is over whether a single binary format can meet a wide enough range of needs to be worth standardizing. I suspect there will also be a fun debate over whether tightly coupling the components of a distributed application via schemas is worth the performance gains that a schema-driven efficient serialization format would offer. The W3C EXI WG has collected a mountain of data on the question of how much performance and compression improvement one gets under different scenarios, but it's not yet released in a conveniently usable form AFAIK.

An Overview of the Treatment of Mesothelioma
Mesothelioma is an orphan disease. That means it is extremely rare. Only about 3,000 cases are diagnosed in the United States each year. If you have been diagnosed with any form of mesothelioma cancer, it is important to find specialists who are experienced at treating this rare disease. The leading cancer treatment hospitals are usually the best place to find doctors and other experts. These experts can determine how far along your disease is (its stage). They then use that information to outline your treatment options.
Supportive or palliative care
Some mesothelioma treatments are aimed at easing the pain and trying to extend a patient's life with the hope of someday curing the disease. Others, known as palliative treatments, are solely aimed at easing symptoms, and do not try to stop the cancer. Surgery, radiation and chemotherapy can be used both ways (either as treatment or as palliation of symptoms).
You may choose supportive or palliative care if the disease has progressed very far and your health is too fragile for surgery or chemotherapy, or if you decide that you simply don't want aggressive treatment. Mesothelioma patients given supportive care generally live four to nine months after they are diagnosed.
Sometimes supportive care seems like the only option, but if you want to try to beat the cancer and have been told that your options are limited, it is important to get a second opinion from another team of doctors experienced in treating mesothelioma. Although mesothelioma cancer is a very rare disease, new treatments are being developed. Be sure you know all your options.
Traditional cancer treatments
The methods used to treat disease, such as radiation and chemotherapy, are called modalities. Therapy that involves more than one form of treatment is called multimodality treatment. Multimodality treatment is believed to have the best chance of extending a patient's life. It is also the most aggressive and complicated.
For several years now, traditional cancer treatment, which combines surgery, chemotherapy and radiation, has more than doubled the mesothelioma survival rate to an average of 18 months. But let's face it – 18 months to live, even with aggressive treatment, is a very scary figure.
Thanks to strong lobbying by mesothelioma lawyers and others fighting for mesothelioma victims' rights, more money has gone into research lately. New chemotherapy drugs and other treatments are giving patients hope. Many mesothelioma patients are now living for four or five years. There is hope that longer survival rates are on the horizon.
Diagnosis methods
Some of the methods used to diagnose mesothelioma, such as paracentesis and thoracentesis, are also considered treatment methods because they drain fluid from the chest or abdominal cavity. This can help reduce swelling and pain and, in the case of a thoracentesis or thoracoscopy, ease shortness of breath.
Radiation can be used to kill the cancerous cells; however, it's not possible to eradicate all the cancerous cells without endangering the patient by destroying healthy cells. The side effects of radiation therapy include fatigue, difficulty swallowing, shortness of breath, digestive problems, hair loss, skin irritation and stiffness.
In chemotherapy, the patient is given drugs that will kill the cancerous cells either by mouth or through intravenous injection. Treatment with traditional drugs alone has not been effective in prolonging the lives of patients with mesothelioma, but that may be changing. In 2004, the FDA approved the use of Alimta, a new medication, in combination with cisplatin. In clinical trials, the combination of Alimta and cisplatin was shown to prolong the lives of patients with mesothelioma by a median of three months.
Like most cancers, mesothelioma is most treatable in the earliest stages, but it is seldom diagnosed until it has reached more advanced stages. When mesothelioma is discovered in the earliest stages, surgery is the most commonly recommended treatment option; however, that rarely happens. In fact, only about 20-30% of those with mesothelioma are candidates for surgery.
Complementary and alternative treatments
You probably remember that when Steve McQueen was diagnosed with malignant peritoneal mesothelioma back in the late '70s, he reportedly went down to Mexico to try untested "alternative" treatments, though, unfortunately, without success.
Some types of complementary and alternative treatments may be helpful and your doctor or hospital may be able to direct you to trusted practitioners. Others can jeopardize your health. So, it is very important to consult with your doctor before trying any of these treatments.
Complementary and alternative treatments refer to non-traditional approaches such as using holistic medicine, modified diets, acupuncture, herbs, meditation, or guided imagery to help fight mesothelioma cancer. Many patients with mesothelioma find some benefit in eating a healthy diet, including the suggestion by the American Cancer Society that patients with cancer eat at least five servings of fruit and vegetables daily. They may also find that relaxation techniques such as meditation can help alleviate stress and lessen the side effects of chemotherapy and radiation.
When these treatments are used alone or instead of traditional medicine, they are known as alternative treatments. When they are used in combination with more traditional medicine, they are known as complementary or integrative treatments.
Most people choose complementary therapies. Today, some hospitals offer complementary or integrative medicine along with traditional treatments.
You should always ask your doctor's advice before trying any type of complementary treatments, including over-the-counter herbs, vitamins, and nutritional supplements, because even these simple remedies might interfere with your current treatments. Sometimes certain herbs shouldn't be taken for a week or two before surgery, for example, or they might be safe once chemotherapy is over but dangerous while you're undergoing treatment. So, make sure your doctor knows everything you are considering. He or she can help you decide whether to try complementary therapies and at what point during your treatment they are safe to try.
The National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine (NCCAM), part of the National Institutes of Health, is beginning to study many of these practices in an effort to find ways to use proven complementary and alternative practices in combination with conventional medical practices and to encourage the study of proven practices in medical and nursing schools.
Promising new treatments and clinical trials
Clinical trials are one of the last testing steps a new cancer treatment must go through before it is released to the general public to use. They often use traditional cancer treatments – surgery, chemotherapy and radiation – but in different ways to try to find more effective remedies. Other clinical trials for mesothelioma include new drugs or experimental therapies such as photodynamic therapy, gene therapy or other experimental approaches.
Many leading cancer treatment centers and drug companies are conducting clinical trials in the hope of helping mesothelioma patients live longer. You might be eligible to participate in one. Ask your doctor about different experimental treatments at the cancer center where you are being treated, or at others across the country.
Clinical trials require you to meet certain eligibility requirements. For example, you might need to be at a certain stage of the disease in order to participate. It's important to research these trials as quickly as you can by talking to your medical team, searching for information on the web and calling cancer centers.
There are benefits and disadvantages in being involved in a clinical trial, but many people feel that the benefit of being able to try a new drug that is promising enough to merit a clinical trial outweighs the negatives.
New chemotherapy drugs
One new drug that has shown promise in early trials is coramsine. Animal studies have shown that coramsine is effective in both slowing the rate of tumor growth and preventing the growth of more cancerous cells. The company that makes coramsine is about to begin testing it in humans.
One of the more traditional treatments for cancer has been the use of chemicals produced by the body's immune system against the cancerous cells. The most common of these are interferon and interleukin-2. While they are often effective in treating other kinds of cancer, they've had only limited success in treating mesothelioma. Recently, however, researchers have found that introducing interleukin-2 directly into the space between the lungs and the ribs may slow the growth of tumors. There are a number of clinical trials ongoing.
Heat Therapy
Clinical trials have shown that mesothelioma cells are more susceptible to anticancer drugs that are heated to temperatures as high as 109 degrees. There are two ways that this is accomplished. The first is to heat the drugs themselves before injecting them. The other is to heat the pleural cavity before the drugs are injected.
Gene Therapy
There are a number of different kinds of gene therapy being investigated. One of the most promising involves genetically changing the structure of a virus so that the cells that are invaded by the virus become more susceptible to drugs used to treat cancer.
Photodynamic Therapy
Photodynamic therapy is being studied for use against several kinds of cancer, including malignant mesothelioma. It involves the injection of photo-sensitive substance into the pleural cavity. The molecules of this substance are absorbed by the cancerous cells, making them susceptible to light. They are then subjected to a low intensity laser or high-intensity light which kills off the mesothelioma cells.
More information about clinical trials for mesothelioma can be found here.

Sun protection
On the plane, you're closer to the sun, so sunscreen is very important. I apply several pumps of to my face and neck every two hours and right before I get off the aircraft. I love that it's a silky gel formula and not at all thick like most sunscreens. It's exactly what you need when you're flying across the world.

"Following three years of solid growth in the North American market, we are strengthening our commitment to operational excellence with a new dedicated team based in Denver, CO," said Black Crows Co-Founder and CEO Christophe Villemin. "Closer to our clients, we will continue to develop unique products and improved customer experience," he said.

Participants can also share a ski day with local and pro Crows' ambassadors. Follow @blackcrows_skis on Instagram for tour stop announcements.
In 2006, professional freeskiers Camille Jaccoux and Bruno Compagnet founded Black Crows in Chamonix, France. The line was introduced to the U.S. market in 2014.
"We are very honored by the strong dynamic that Black Crows and our products are now experiencing in North America. As a French brand of Chamonix, we really respect the culture of skiing here in America and to be part of it now is very important for us. We are still a small company, and our mission today is to structure our service so that all aspects of our brand are at the level of the quality of our products. This is what we are putting in place, this is essential," said Jaccoux.
VP of Sales and Marketing Thomas Fabre, COO and VP of HR Nathalie Dougados and CFO and CIO Romain Pollak recently joined the Black Crows leadership team. Co-Founders Camille Jaccoux and Bruno Compagnet, CEO Christophe Villemin and Creative Director Yorgo Tloupas remain at the helm of the brand.

Black Crows line of hardgoods and apparel will be on view at Outdoor Retailer Snow Show, Booth #42128-UL.

Her previous works have involved reshaping blurred images of events, such as the first moon landing or the conquering of the American West. However, in Chamber of Horrors we immediately recognize 1960s and '70s cinema as the inspiration. Evers acquires original prints from cinema showcases, through exchanges and the Internet; she then works on the surface of these prints with coloured pigments.
