潛游於過去的人

要是一個人花他／她的一生不斷往過去看，
他／她的世界會是怎樣呢？

除了吃飯和見人，什麼時候都活在過去，
連夢境也是。

什麼累

做什麼都可以很累，
什麼也不做都很累。
你是什麼累？

補假

專心補假，
差點以為自己辭了工。

這個內地的online magazine好像很好看．

很抽身的眼光來看世界，又不失情感．

最重要是簡短易看．

學問

「陳寅恪那時候雙目失明，沒法到校園上課，修讀的同學都要到他家裏，坐在小木椅上聽講；不止同學來，其他系的教授也來，學生和老師之別僅在於身分名稱，

在學問面前，每個人都有求知的權利和欲望。

」

「那時候的紅衛兵曾經在校園廣貼大字報痛陳先生「誤人子弟」，理由之一是他曾經討論楊貴妃入宮時是否處女，狂妄的年輕人當然不明白，陳先生在意的是引領學生思考唐代的宮闈禮制與三綱五常，

一粒沙看宇宙，但在俗人眼內，一粒沙畢竟只是一粒沙

超型的工程 ： 南海一號

還有什麼工程比這個更型?!

沉箱入水包裹古船
穿底梁如“水下穿針”
“華天龍”吊臂全回轉
氣囊助浮還可做軌道
“南海一號”的新家──廣東海上絲綢之路博物館，有一個很夢幻的名字──“水晶宮”。

很重自然味道的人造「大自然」景像

Muslim pilgrims surround the Kaaba while performing Friday prayer inside the Grand Mosque in Mecca December 14, 2007.

你知道我在說什麼嗎？

“made in china”

看畢黃子華棟篤笑後，皆同友人及她爸爸到鬧市中吃飯，
高談闊論，什麼都談，
談到設計和中國：

世界上只有中國才願意致力生產這麼大量的劣質產品，
皆因她過去幾十年所失去／摧毀的實在太多，
這一世界大工廠誓要以光速生產劣質產品,為之以最快的速度賺回她在歷史上所失去的一切。

眼見充斥滿家的劣質”made in china”貨，
一臉無奈。
唯有寄望這個世界大工廠快追趕上來，讓我家人在有生之年嚐到使用”made in china”的優質產品的閒適生活。

人呀人，什麼時候才可閒下來過活？

談設計

在設計談設計，實在沒什麼可談。
更何況只談平面、產品…設計。
反而，抽離設計自身以外來看設計，
可談之處則多得很，
一切恍然變得很立體。

它被懸浮在中間，一切都被看穿了。

近的、遠的、長的、闊的……….

一切都被看破，也很好談，很耐看。

baubaus & modern design

Baubaus
The school was founded by Walter Gropius at the conservative city of Weimar in 1919 as a merger of the Weimar School of Arts and Crafts and the Weimar Academy of Fine Arts. His opening manifesto proclaimed “to create a new guild of craftsmen, without the class distinctions which raise an arrogant barrier between craftsman and artist”.
Most of the contents of the pre-war Weimar workshops had been sold during World War I. The early intention was for the Bauhaus to be a combined architecture school, crafts school, and academy of the arts. Much internal and external conflict followed.
Gropius argued that a new period of history had begun with the end of the war. He wanted to create a new architectural style to reflect this new era. His style in architecture and consumer goods was to be functional, cheap and consistent with mass production. To these ends, Gropius wanted to reunite art and craft to arrive at high-end functional products with artistic pretensions. The Bauhaus issued a magazine called “Bauhaus” and a series of books called “Bauhausbücher”. Since the country lacked the quantity of raw materials that the United States and Great Britain had, they had to rely on the proficiency of its skilled labor force and ability to export innovative and high quality goods. Therefore designers were needed and so was a new type of art education. The school’s philosophy basically stated that the artist should be trained to work with the industry.

帶點社會主義…

i become an exhibition designer!

當一本書放在一個空間。

錯有錯著，把牆拆掉，效果更好。
幸好找到一個可靠的contractor, 學懂很多，日後有更多東西可玩啊。

exhibition design 跟書藉設計的道理如出一轍，
內容最重要，也要代入讀者的角色，
不同的在於，
時間上，一方是短暫的，一方是永久的，
空間上，一方能承載一個（多個）人，一方卻承載在一個人的手裡。

歸於平淡

也安於平靜。

漂亮的

喜歡看著喜歡自己工作的人，
因為他們的微笑都是漂亮的，發自內心，十分好看。

心地和作品

一個人要是心地不好，不論怎樣也難做出好的東西。

更談不上是一件作品。

心地真壞。

surrealist techniques

Exquisite corpse “exquisite cadaver”
Exquisite corpse (also known as “exquisite cadaver” or “rotating corpse”) is a method by which a collection of words or images are collectively assembled, the result being known as the exquisite corpse or cadavre exquis in French. Each collaborator adds to a composition in sequence, either by following a rule (e.g. “The adjective noun adverb verb the adjective noun”) or by being allowed to see the end of what the previous person contributed.

he technique was invented by Surrealists in 1925, and is similar to an old parlour game called Consequences in which players write in turn on a sheet of paper, fold it to conceal part of the writing, and then pass it to the next player for a further contribution.
