The Impact of Kickstarter, Creative Commons & Creators Project



PBS Off BookIn the art world, traditional funding models are dissolving, new forms of expressing ownership have arisen to accomodate for remix culture, and artists are finding ways to connect physical art experiences and traditions to the internet.

In the digital era, the experience of art from the perspective of the artist and the art audience is shifting rapidly, and bringing more people into the creative process.

Si por un momento me volviéra el Viento.



Mientras haya un momento a solas, se puede pensar en lo que se pretender hacer, hay momentos en donde las cosas no son como parecen y lo que entiendes no es como parece, así es que te encontré a  ti, las flores, las palabras no tienen  sentido, mas sin embargo los actos son los importantes, que triste que con el pasar de los tiempos, las cosas efímeras como las flores, pierdan el sentido, que las palabras dulces se oculten detrás de un no quiero y que la única manera de robar tu atención sea conquistarte con las acciones y las palabras.

De un mundo diferente, de colores exquisitos nos encontramos tu y yo, tal parece que la vida nos pone en la disyuntiva de que hacer, en lados alejados, en mundos encontrados, aquí estamos, uno detrás del otro, ocultando parte de nuestra historia y mostrando solo lo necesario, es aquí donde te encuentro y me encuentras, nuestra historia, mil lagrimas, nuestra vida, mil momentos, nuestro futuro, es incierto, mas sin embargo en esta noche, Te pienso, como un sueño, miro tus ojos, recorro con ellos cada centímetro de tu imagen, cada cabello que recorre tu rostro, cada poro de tu piel, es así que te miro y suspiro, es así que pienso mil cosas en mi mente, tratando de descubrirte, tratando de entenderte y tratando de estar junto a ti, te veo y suspiro, quisiera que como la magia, pudiera traspasar el tiempo y el espacio y llegar a ti.



Lagrimas en mi vida, lagrimas en la tuya, una vida pasada, un recuerdo tormentoso, una vida sin sonrisas, esto es parte de nuestra vida, pero debemos levantarnos, subir a lo mas alto y desde ahí dejarnos caer al vacío, sentir el viento en nuestros rostros, dejar de temer y por una vez, mirar el aire en el que flotamos, de que sirve sentir el suelo, si al caer la perspectiva que se tiene no es muy admirable, es mejor flotar en esa caída, por lo menos no importa cuanto dure, al menos en ese momento seremos libres, libres para creer, libres para sentir y libres para permitirnos creer.

Yo no deseo conquistarte con rosas, ni con obsequios, ni con palabras, yo deseo solo formar parte de ti una vez mas, volverme a ti y vivir aunque sea un instante unido a ti.


Porque no importaría dar todo, si pudiera estar junto a ti.

Bye-bye, Diploma :)

PROUDLY ENDED MY DIPLOMA!! (2 weeks ago) Oh how I miss my little blog here. Oh my oh my taktahu nak tulis apa. Muahahahaha diploma habis. Muahahahaha!! Since I'm too suck for creative writing, should I go for interpersonal communication or human resource? or creative advertising? Hmm.. If only I can do photography. -.-"

My dearest kawan-kawan bujang, DMC6F :')
3 years doing my Diploma in Media and Communication Studies was superduperextremely diplomagasm! (Ok I just made that up) 3 years.. 2.5 years to be exact, in Lendu has taught me alot! Met tons of beautiful and handsome people, and some douches but saya sayang semua! :3 All the ups and downs, black and white, ying and yang, thick and thin, uni chums and lovestories will always be remembered. Good times, brahh. Good times :)

Dan warung D'bukit menjadi saksi perpisahan kami :') #emosi

Viva la vida was, okay. Even though kena sembur sikit sebanyak but hello, Sir Latiff kot? Handsomeee. Hihihihihihihihihihihi. :3 Heh heh but overall, our final presentation went well. OrphanCARE seemed satisfied with our job (HOPEFULLY!), report paling tebal dalam kelas, Sir Kimi and Sir Latif were happy with it, booth cantik :p , groupmates best, whats not to love? Oh btw this is the second shot, because the first one Sir Kimi simpan dalam poket dia, hewhewhewhew. :3 So far, I got all A's for all his subjects for 3 semesters so.... I love Sir Kimi. Weeeeee!! His sarcasm and evil laugh might get your nerves for some times but seemed like we all has got used to it so yeah, we love you Sir Kimi!! And Sir Latif, the sexiest lecturer alive. Can't say much later Zaza , Zaty datang bakar rumah. Zzzz

Oh not to forget, as what I promised you before, Zaheera Harun. Oh yes, that bitch is one hell of a bitch :p This young lady I knew since part one, started with the menyampah moment and suddenly became friends yang entah macamana jadi, and we started to go to class together, "jom?" "jom." each other, work together, makan together, ponteng together, cried together (kadang-kadang dgn fatin yusof :p),  stay up together, cuci mata.. zaza sorang, laugh together, shop together, dress to impress (AGM part1) together, kena kutuk together, gemuk together plus, sleepovers bagai.  Beautiful lady with beautiful attitude, cuma kadang kadang dia macam minta kaki pun ada, but it's been a pleasure to work with you for the past 6 semesters. Crime partner tak kira masa, thanks for everything my dear classmate, groupmate, housemate, and roommate :) 

Done with my IELTS as well, but but but but.. Ok, no comment. Got my new IC!! Pun no comment. Since I'm currently having some sort of "the time of my life" now, I totally forgot how to blog. Ngaaahahahaha~ Too lazy to self-shot, editing and stuffs. My goodness, what happened to me!! Ke mana sifat perasan anda, Illy?!! 

Since everything seems to falling back to places, syukur alhamdullillah ke hadrat Ilahi. Thank you Allah (SWT) for all the blessings. 




P/S : My friend needs some money for her dad's heart treatment. He deals w/ gout for years and just got hypertension,diabetes and heart problem recently. Need 25k for treatments. DM/PM me to do your part. #RT

The Antikythera Mechanism



antikythera-mechanism.grMore than a hundred years ago an extraordinary mechanism was found by sponge divers at the bottom of the sea near the island of Antikythera. It astonished the whole international community of experts on the ancient world.

For decades, scientific investigation failed to yield much light, however research over the last half century has begun to reveal its secrets.

The machine dates from around the end of the 2nd century B.C. and is the most sophisticated mechanism known from the ancient world. Nothing as complex is known for the next thousand years. The Antikythera Mechanism is now understood to be dedicated to astronomical phenomena and operates as a complex mechanical “computer” which tracks the cycles of the Solar System.

POEMAS y REFLEXIONES ALA VIDA






EL SENTIDO DE LA VIDA


 La pregunta infinita: el sentido de la vida
Tiene una respuesta sencilla: aquello que vos digas

No busques bajo las piedras ni en los rayos del sol

No busques en tus vecinos ni en el trabajo ni en la pasión

Que el sentido de la vida lo tienes tú en el bolsillo

En tus pensamientos, en el alma, en tu corazón
Y está escrito en la clave que se lee con el amor

Si pones el sentido de la vida en manos de otro

Correrás el riesgo no pequeño de perderlo

Si crees que la vida no tiene sentido en el dolor

Piensa de nuevo: entenderás la lección

Si pierdes su sentido en la desesperación
No cojas lo primero del fondo del abismo
Que el sentido de la vida volverá por sí mismo



La vida, mi romance

Un día al despertar, abriendo la ventana

ha entrado la luz de la conciencia universal

el saber que estaba vivo, respiraba, palpitaba

que tenía sueños, deseos, pasiones y sentimientos

que todo lo que veía era asombroso
que todo lo que tocaba remitía a mi ser
y era parte de todo, y todo era parte de mí

Y así floté hasta mi patio con el hálito del enamorado

un recién nacido a la belleza esencial

como si siempre hubiera estado dormido

y ahora con un bostezo fenomenal

moría la ignorancia que arruinaba mi espíritu
para suplantar enojos con caricias,
para trocar tiempo por libertad,
para abrir los ojos, absorber tantos colores, tanta bondad
tanta existencia que me envuelve como brisa
un pájaro cantando sin necesitar un por qué

Y salí a la calle a bañarme de luz, a danzar

a tomar de la mano a la vida y con ella bailar

el vals de la existencia, por siempre jamás

descalzo con los pies en el suelo pero
la cabeza en las nubes, en los cielos, en el mar
abrazando mi vida de la cintura, apretarla,
mirarla a los ojos y besarla en la boca
Un romance vitalicio, los versos de este poema
que quien sepa entenderá, el poema de la vida





La vida nace de mí


Henchido mi corazón que sabe amar, perdonar, adorar

Alta mi frente por dar sin esperar recibir nada a cambio

Orgulloso mi espíritu por navegar la vida con coraje

Y también por fluir en sus aguas dejándome llevar


Rocío en mis ojos, donde todo se vuelve cristal líquido

Hormigueo en las yemas de mis dedos sólo por tocar

El pensamiento sirve a fin de entender y aceptar

que en la vida estamos de paseo y siempre es carnaval








Mi vida y yo





Mi vida y yo nos dimos la mano y nos hicimos amigos

luego de tanto pelear, de ella darme todo y yo pedir más

Creí que mis amigos eran la Angustia y la Soledad

Pero ellos me lo negaron todo, ¿una alegría? ¡jamás!


Le confesé todas mis penurias, mis llantos y dolor

La vida asentía con infinita paciencia, dandome aliento

Y me dijo que yo tenía su regalo más valioso: el tiempo

y que con él podía comprarlo todo, pagando con honor


Mi vida y yo somos uno, como hermanos gemelos

Y me da todos los gustos dulces de caramelo

Siempre y cuando ande a su compás con mi alma


Sin querer sacar tajada, ni aventajarla, ni burlarla





LA VIDA
SONREIR, AMAR, SUFRIR, SOÑAR,
PARTES DE NUESTRAS VIDAS
QUE LABRAMOS CON ESMERO,
A VECES CON RESULTADOS CERTEROS
Y OTRAS SIN TANTO TRIUNFAR,
PERO EN TODOS LOS CASOS VIVIMOS
Y AHÍ ESTÁ EL MILAGRO,
VIVR, SOÑAR, AMAR Y CAMINAR,
ESO ES LA VIDA LUCHAR...
 Creo que aunque es breve es lo más preciso para definir lo que es para mi la vida y sus expectativas o sueños.....








EN EL CAMINO 
APRENDÍ

En el camino aprendí, que llegar alto no es crecer, que mirar no es siempre ver, ni escuchar es oír ni lamentarse es sentir, ni acostumbrarse es querer. En el camino aprendí... que andar solo no es soledad que cobardía no es paz, ni ser feliz es sonreír, y que peor que mentir, es silenciar la verdad. En el camino aprendí... que puede un sueño de amor abrirse como una flor, y como una flor morir, pero en su breve existir, es todo aroma y color. En el camino aprendí... que la humildad no es sumisión la humildad, la humildad es ese don que suele confundir. No es lo mismo ser servil, que un buen servidor. Cuando vayan mal las cosas como a veces suelen ir, cuando ofrezca tu camino solo cuestas que subir, cuando tengas poco pero mucho que pagar y precises sonreír aun teniendo que llorar cuando el dolor te agobie y no puedas ya sufrir ... Descansar acaso debes pero nunca desistir Cuando todo este peor ...Mas debemos insistir  







UN POEMA ALA VIDA



La vida es una oportunidad, aprovéchala. 
La vida es belleza, admírala. 
La vida es beatitud, saboréala. 
La vida es un sueño, hazlo realidad. 
La vida es un reto, afróntalo. 
La vida es un deber, cúmplelo. 
La vida es un juego, juégalo. 
La vida es preciosa, cuídala. 
La vida es riqueza, consérvala. 
La vida es amor, gózala. 
La vida es un misterio, desvélalo. 
La vida es promesa, cúmplela. 
La vida es tristeza, supérala. 
La vida es un himno, cántalo. 
La vida es un combate, acéptalo. 
La vida es una tragedia, domínala. 
La vida es una aventura, disfrútala. 
La vida es felicidad, merécela. 
La vida es la vida, defiéndela.

Madre Teresa de Calcuta.

Hublot | 5 Million Dollar Watch



Randolph Jonsson, gizmag.comHublot says that the unique diamond-crusted Big Bang watch is the most “precious” timepiece it’s ever created in its 32-year history.

So just what goes into a US$5 million watch? For starters, the 1.73-inch (44-mm) diameter 18K white gold case is packed with 302 baguette diamonds. The 18K white gold dial holds another 179 baguettes. The 18K bracelet that holds it on the lucky owner’s wrist is set with a staggering 782 more baguette diamonds, plus an additional six emerald-cut diamonds, all greater than 3 carats each. Throw in the 18K white gold crown’s 1.06 carat rose-cut diamond, plus its 12 additional baguettes and you have a market-cornering 1,282 diamonds in total, more than 100 carats in baguettes alone, and all of grade A VVS clarity.

After a year spent searching for the largest stones, Hublot, in collaboration with Geneva’s Atelier Bunter, spent 14 months total on the Big Bang's construction. This included the efforts of 12 cutters and five setters who worked on it full-time for seven months!

Alas, if you had any designs on acquiring this marvel for yourself, you're too late. The Hour Glass, a luxury watch dealer in Singapore, took that honor and plans to display it in its Asian stores. If you want a look at Hublot's finest, evidently you'll just have to follow the money.

Jarno Smeets Flies Like a Bird



humanbirdwings.netJarno Smeets, a mechanical engineer from the Netherlands, wants to fly.

“When I was younger, my granddad was actually working on some sketches for a flying bicycle. A helicopter, human powered by a bike mechanism. As a child I was always very intrigued by these drawings, back then I really believed that my granddad would once be able to fly on this bike. Only later I realized that this would be a very difficult thing to accomplish. The images of his flying bike have always been floating around in the back of my mind. So, for that great dream my grandpa gave me, he is still my biggest inspiration for starting this ‘Human Birdwings’ project.”

Jarno’s Grandad’s sketch

“When I was studying in England, my knowledge about mechanical and electronical engineering started to expand. I soon discovered that flapping wings without external powersupport would be impossible. During the more boring lectures I started sketching and writing down ideas about how wings could be powerassisted by actuators during their flapping movement. Back then there were no easy accessible components to, for example, collect arm movement data. The last few years a lot of exciting consumer devices, like Wii controllers and Smartphones, have been developped which changed my original ideas drastically.”



Making the wings in the workshop.



Jarno tests the flapping of the wings with the electronic mechanism with the Wii controllers. It works! He can fully control the wings with his arms.



An HTC phone and a Wii remote are programmed to work together in order to let them flap the wings at the precise movement.



Jarno talks with Bert Otten professor in Neuromechanics at the Univeristy of Groningen about the ability to fly like birds.

Sipho Mabona | The Plague


Mabona OrgamiIn his latest installation The Plague, Sipho Mabona materializes the hypnotic ambivalence of money: the quotidian dollar-bill which accomplishes our daily business begins folding in on itself, gains awesome complexity and takes flight as a foreboding swarm of monetary locusts.

Money has gone from being an elementary medium of exchange to being a means of exploitation: a colossal cloud of hot money [and incomprehensible financial instruments] buzzes above the global economy like a biblical swarm of locust. Thus money as bane. Yet money per se, plain as the one-dollar-bill, always retains its basic ability to function as a pragmatic unit of accounting for goods & services. Hence money as blessing.

Each single specimen was folded from an uncut square of (US) currency sheet and took Mabona 4 to 5 hours to complete.
