The Adventure

For my exam project I choose to work on a quote by Arthur C. Clarke: 

"Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic."

I want to explore the relationship between technology and magic and I research on the new nanotechnology of pineapple. Scientists have revealed that the fiber from its leaf and stem can be made into stronger, lighter, and more sustainable materials for cars and other products. This amazing study is still hard to believe but it is in great progress now. 

During my research I have grown interests in the role of scientists. They are both the pioneers of technology and also maybe the craziest dreamers. To them, technology and magic is definitely indistinguishable, for their job is to study how these unknown ‘magic’ works. Once resolved, magic can be applied and turns into technology. I made a stop motion animation to celebrate this inspiring potential of pineapple and also to show my thoughts about and respects to the scientists; they are not only the pioneers of technology, but also the creative dreamers that see developing possibilities in everything.  

 

Christmas trip to Holland

I went on a trip to Holland during Christmas last year. Strangely I started shopping in Brighton on the day to Holland but didn't buy anything clothes at all there! The wool jumper I bought was very nice and warm though, and I wore it throughout my trip : ) I also drew down some other funny bits during the trip, including the lovely people I met there. Thank you so much my friend to invite me to Holland ^^

My guerrilla gardening film

I join a guerrilla gardening event on 09 October, 2011, which is the International Tulip Guerrilla Gardening Day. We did guerrilla gardening around Oval, London. It was a lovely experience to green and beautify the city : ) 

Lost time

Lost time is never found again. We moved to a new apartment in June 2009, leaving the old house in which lots of precious memories lies. Sometimes I do miss it, even just merely looking at the old furniture in that old house will trace me back to the days we've spent there. 

 

 

 

 

The Tension

How well do we know our friends?  No matter how close the friendship is, there is always an invisible boundary, or a certain tension among friends. While sharing common interests with and expressing inner feeling to friends, secrets, suspects and pressure also exist.
