To the members of the États de Cézembre and of the Assemblée Générale of Cézembre:
Greetings and felicitations, and may you bask on the warm sands and bathe in the cool seas of our wonderful province. I come to address you all a bit more than a mere seven months into my residence here, perhaps naive and also perhaps unsullied by the rigors of conflict, and desirous of a third way to create a sum larger than the current parts.
The focus of my speech is to think globally and act locally.
To that end, within the constraints set upon us by history, tradition, and the vagaries of legal and legislative systems at larger levels, there are things that can be done in Cézembre towards the common good of our province and to the world beyond.
One such activity, as suggested by the honorable Dude de Cézembre, Üc Tärfâ, is to form a Cèzembre Joint Cultural Commission perhaps to rebuild the Cézembrian Art Gallery that has been neglected for many years.
This gallery would be a great resource to l’Üniversità Talossán, for which I have proposed that the main campus be granted lands upon our isle. I invite all Talossan scholars to post their vitae on www.linkedin.com for review and consideration for faculty positions, and to the council of el Acadiméu Talossán dels Írts és dals Siensiâs to review and participate in University activities.
A resource for these blossoming intellectual and cultural endeavors has been established at www.cezembre.org. That URL is a placeholder for now, which will migrate soon (perhaps to IP 69.15.83.183) onto a linux based server (which in and of itself will be a symbol of openness), and while the computer science department of l’Üniversità Talossán has the opportunity to experiment with that infrastructure, there will also be repository of culture created and maintained by all.
All these activities may in some way establish some mediation in our kulturkampf along the coast of Brittany, and perhaps provide some insight to others.
I thank all Cézembreans for their esprit de corps,
X. Pôl Brigâ
