Watch this video of an architect exploring design. It would be extremely presumptuous for me to equate myself, and I’m not. but I often get asked by others, why do I get so critical, or why do I spend so much thought into something, with a tone that suggests I shouldn’t. This is why. A lot can be achieved if even just a little more of us gave this a shot.

it is important, that as a developed, developing society, that the police is able to trust, control, manage the a crowd of demonstrators, as oppose to promptly shut them out. this is part of the democracy a society lives in. not additional.
the notion of threat towards this, is a reflection of the notion of power with those that be.

Just came across this dance, from what I gather seem to be popular in Ibero-Americano countries (Spanish/Portugal speaking countries, colonies).

A video worth watching. A quick analysis worth listening.

Thanks Nini Marini for the picture, and hospitality.
Yesterday, I was at a studio as a guest judge to shoot for a TV show, where people pitch their ideas to get (partial) funding for them to make it happen. Their project must be in view of for the betterment of Malaysia, or society. Besides that, the standard measurement were whether that idea was scalable and sustainable. I self-questioned the notion 2 months ago when I first received this TV invitation with a post, read here.
It’s been something on my head for a while as (if you’ve been following this blog), you’d notice how I’ve always highlighted Ory Okolloh’s quick story (watch here, at 12 minutes 40 seconds) about the people she was supporting back home. At the same time, some of the best ideas we are witnessing and living today, look around you, have no element or vision of its scale or sustenance upon its inception or early days.
Sure, that is not to say there’s should be an open ended subjective way to decide upon support, within or beyond funding, for any idea that. Beyond the context of just Sejuta Impian show, there indeed can be perimeters to decide. Just don’t forget that most great living ideas, were often beyond the grasp of comprehension.
Watch the video. Because sometimes, the idea is not the thought but the person.

It’s not much in terms of core creation, but albeit it’s a compilation, that in itself too is creation. The production of this idea, the video, is a light testament to how far can creativity go.
*Amazing shot at 1:20.

I was in Iceland last July and was quite impressed by their brand of humor, or more accurately, the quirkiness of their advertisements. I remember taking an amount of photographs before being scolded by the immigration officer for boarding the flight at the eleventh hour. What happened to those photos is something I’ll explain later, but above is a video from tourism that I imagine will draw in some numbers.
Note how some people in the video are wearing only single layer clothing, which I trust was done to debunk the impression that it’s all cold, all year round everywhere there.

Yesterday was the International Women’s Day and I managed to sneak to one event by Kakiseni that was commemorating it. The organizers had also release a set of good videos online. At some point, I hope it will be used as a case study in Malaysia for promotions/marketing via youtube, something I forecasted in early 2008 as an amazing tool to get word out (including vlogs).
Anyhow the video above is related to Butoh performance and the one below relates to media studies of women on film/stage (perception, stereotype, expectations, image), something I either blogged or tweeted about recently.
Below was Michael from Kakiseni meeting me and some others some time ago to discuss the flashmob element in their campaign. Click here to know more about their overall campaign as there’s an array of interesting stuff they’re doing this coming weeks that you can go to.
