The new invention: Telectroscope




Telectroscope is the most original piece of art and spectacular invention ever! Now people in London and New York can take a peek of each other from the giant telescope. World is really changing, you can actually see people from the other side of the world, Amazing! The telectroscope tunnel itself run deep under the Atlantic Ocean, it blew my mind and I'm dying to try it out. Someone please take me either to London or NY please :p

for the sake of not forgetting.

i think i really need this wallpaper in my room so I wont forget what I have to do since other calendar never really work for me. this one I think is big enough =D

"The calendar plays an important role in our daily life, we might not always be aware, but it strongly influences how we structure our days. Without a calendar our lives would be more ineffiecient and confusing to live. By merging qualities from an everyday item like a wallpaper with functions from a calendar that we use daily, something ordinary like a wall becomes alive and personal." (Christiaan Postma)

PoeiOei's collection of bags are all handcrafted from Indonesia (my country) with genuine leather and batik tulis. Below are some pictures of the bags that I fall in love with especially the new collection of summer '08, which is the laptop case.

Long Time.

It has been quiet sometimes that I haven't update this blog. After all the workloads of assignments, I finally had a chance to blog again. So, some weeks ago I submitted my Design Research Report assignment, which was about Sustainable Design. Here are the link if you would like to download the document file of my research report. 

From last week, my lecture gave back my report and gave me some feedback about what kind of things that I have to add and fix for my report. She said that my report is good but I have to add more of literature review, in-text citations, footnotes and proposed theoretical framework. Also, I did a mistake on doing the referencing. I was suppose to use the Chicago format and then without realizing it, I used the Harvard format (Stupid, I know) so I have to fix it. 

That's all that I have to do for improving my report and I think next week I have to pass the improve report again to my lecture. I hope this time I won't do any stupid mistake :)

black balloons.

The Victorian Government is running a campaign about energy saving for their homes.

This Save Energy campaign is encouraging us to save energy at home to cut greenhouse gas emissions and reduce the impact of climate change. The balloons that are featured in the campaign represents 50 grams of greenhouse gas/each. By saving energy, you'll save money, as well as help protect our environment from the impacts of climate change.

Here you can view the television commercials from both the 2006 and 2007 seasons of the
Victorian Energy Savings Campaign.





i really like how this commercial educated us and not being too formal or serious. there is still a sense of entertainment in it (esp. the black balloons).
