@ a130045

Education is good, but somehow the education system is a threat to our creativity. More evidently seen in the Asian culture.

Education in China

Bruce Goldstein (Eighth Edition) is a book that covers various aspects of perceptions of which it includes the basics/introduction of it.

Perception is the ability to be aware of something through the senses and Read more →

Lady Lazarus by Sylvia Plath

I have done it again. One year in every ten I manage it—–

A sort of walking miracle, my skin Bright as a Nazi lampshade, My right foot

Peel off the napkin O my enemy. Do I terrify?——-

@ Beverly Goh

Alright, not really. Zelda’s not present. I just made this post (first post of many like these) to feature some of the articles I have been reading to bring me closer to a concrete idea. That is, if I can stop myself from stirring the concrete before it sets. Might not be a terrible thing however — like most things, Read more →

Case Study : Littlebit x Korg Synth Kit

@ The Allan Show

Came across this on ARS Electronica

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vDxz8bpqOMU

Besides the interesting presentation by Reggie Watts, what I found interesting about this synthesizer is that it’s quite bare and the modular possibilities feel endless to me.
