Kinetica Art Fair

went to Kinetica art fair on the other day. It was really interesting to see interactive arts, or dynamic arts. This is the place. It’s difficult to explain with words, so pictures…. There are some interactive arts, like getting information from real world and convert it into graphics etc… Or something which moves reacting human’s move. Or something….unknown, but just getting closer to you. And collaboration with other arts. And robots. And…moving stuff. …So, anyway, I enjoyed it so much!

Ikebana (Japanese flower arrangement)

My friend invited me to Ikebana (Japanese flower arrangement) exhibition! It was in Hamstead. …Before that, we went to eat crape which is really popular in Hamstead.

I’m gonna try sweet one next time. So, ikebata exhibition was in a church. The combination of Japanese and Western was really nice. All flowers were so unique […]

Unlucky, but lucky day

Today was a bit strange day. Unlucky, and lucky. In the morning, I woke up and opened the online course schedule… and found that introduction to the new project was moved to today’s afternoon, that had been empty. Nooooo. I was going to leave at lunch time and join with my friends for Chinese lunch….unlucky But I’m gonna leave at lunch anyway… deciding that, I went to talk to the tutor. And he told me that “One problem happened and I’m not sure we can have the brief today. So introduction first, and not sure about later.” Yes! Lucky! After […]

Alan Aldridge at Design Museum

The event has closed already, but I went to see Alan Aldridge at Design Museum. So the image of Alan Aldridge is basically the Beatles..but I hadn’t looked at his art works in detail. It was amazing, the more you looked at, the more you find detailed elements. You can find a lot of things inside such a small painting. By the way, he is an art director for the band called “Incubus” and designed their jacket, and it looks there was “i dig incubus” contest…I don’t know much about the contest, but there was an artwork for that displayed […]

Chinese new year, Snow.

I went to see Chinese New Year event with my friends on Sunday. Wow…lots of people…one bad thing being in the UK is that I can’t see anything once I go into a crowd…everyone is much taller than me. I couldn’t see the dragons, so I bought a small dragon instead…Cute…I can be patient with this. It was a bit strange weather, it was snowing while I could see the sun. And today I found it when I woke up! Wow…trains and buses have stopped…I can’t go to uni… I heard there was little snow in London though. It’s so […]
