記得當年

還記得那時辦完了大同的workshop，已經過了好一陣子，心裡手裡都還在發癢，想找點什麼東西來玩玩。碰巧的第一屆的Muji就開辦了。

好吧！那就以這個比賽為主題，開始做了一連串的發想過程。

參與者就是我們這群常混再一起的傢伙。閒閒沒事幹～

雖然MUJI主題已定，可是我們操作workshop的方式是以日常生活為主。

所以我們就展開了一連串的觀察，舉凡習慣、問題、解決等等，全都觀察。

真的很好玩。這個過程中，很自然的，大家的能力都表現了出來。

像C的點子多，A的領導能力，F的觀察與總結能力等等，哇！超懷念的拉～！

有些事情，現再不做，以後就後悔。我很高興，有些事，我已經做過。

而且，還想在做。做設計真的很快樂。

Pecha Kucha night at SF

This was one of my wish when the beginning of this year.
I still remember the time when my friend imported PK night to Taiwan.
I said to them that it would be one of my wish this year to stand in front of PK night.
I missed one chance in Taiwan.
After I came to U.S.. I think it should be done here.
I join first PK night at June and started to prepare next time.
I was lucky to met Paul at Alberto's birthday party.
Paul is host of PK night at SF.
I said to him that I want to join PK night to present.
He was so nice and encouraged me to do that.
I signed up to Alberto that I would present at July.
Today was the day I presented.
There were many people there, and I felt nervous for sure.
If you asked me to mark me a score?
I would said 80.
Because I had been practice and done well.
After party, my roommate asked me why I look upset.
I said that during party time, I wanted to find somebody to chat.
But it looks a little bit different with my idea.
I thought there would be a chance to let people know who I am.
And maybe they will interest about me and come to ask me something.
But actually, they didn't. It looks so hard to get into their world.
My roommate said that I should live in reality instead of my day dream.
I think he was right and I should give myself a reward.
I saw twice of my video.
I really done well today.
Specially I used a second language to express myself.

Lucasart studio and Palace of fine art

Last friday......We went to visit Lucasart Studio and Palace of fine art.

I am sorry that too many stuff happened everyday that I cannot updated my blog on time.

But maybe it's good thing because that I tried my best to enjoy every second.

Ok..... Talking about Lucasart Studio . 

It's a very famous company was builded by Starwars' director Geoge Lucas.

There were three company which were included in this studio, Lucas film, Games and light&magic.

Thanks for Chin Ko for hosting this tour and Angus for sharing us this trip.

Due to Chin is a concept artist.We saw many amusing paintings and sculptures.

And we also took a picture with master Youda's sculpture.

In Games place, they always keep light dark and everyone got many cool toys.

About light & magic, because they do movies special effects.

Every movies they joined, they will post a poster on the wall.

And that poster were so many that you cannot believe that so many movies made by special effects.

It was pity that we cannot go into their office to say hi, but I feel satisfied.

After this tour, we went to Palace of fine art, just around the corner.

It was so nice that you can see movie use it for scene(The Rock).

I took some pictures that hope you can enjoy it.

Design party at airport SF

Friday was a very good day.
We took one day off to visit Lucasart studio.
And Thursday we went to join a party at airport museum SF.
It was a small presentation party which held in Aviation museum.
There were several famous design company were invited to present.
Such as Lunar, fuse project, whipsaw, Ideo, smart design etc..
At first, I thought that it was a party and if your company didn't be invited, you may not allow to join.
But thanks for Shifen, told me that I can join it.
So be it, I went to airport with some of my roommate.
During party time, I saw Hiro stood there, but I was shame to introduce myself.
So I didn't come to say hello.
But He remember me and ask Shifen to call me.
He was a so nice elder and I am so jealous at Shifen who can stay in his company.
I videoed some presentation and I will put one of it to blog.
Hope you can enjoy it.

And the element is ?

Stay in U.S. I didn't spent many time to think about design.

All I do is trying to live in this moment.

I watch my friend cook cake or any kind of food.

I travel to other place to see how people live there.

Recently, I start trying to do some video cutting.

And yesterday I saw Universal Studio.

This experience let me feel something different.

It is queer. I am not thinking about design stuff but I have learned something familiar.

Like cooking, you need to management what kind of food that you need put and which one first.

How many you need to put in there?

Scenes that I saw at Universal Studio, it was familiar just like cooking or jut like design.

Everything is about element, balance and beauty(or you can said what kind of feeling that you want to express). I like it.

Yes, the life here, I like it very much.
