  • This month: Talk Show at ICA

    Thursday, May 7, 2009 6:15AM / Members only

    So many things happened recently, I feel losing all energy... sorry for being silence.

    If anyone like 'Act of speech' and you're around London, don't miss this month 'Talk Show' at Institute of Contemporary Art (ICA). Normally I'll not help out to 'promote' art events :) , however, I think this theme would be interesting for many AnD's peer.

    The first performance I attended was Robert Ashley's Foreign Experiences. As a fan of Laurie Anderson many years ago, this Robert's 1994 piece is surprising me with Duet version performed by Sam Ashley and Jacqueline Humbert.

    Well, if you know ICA theatre, you'll disagree me in terms of their acoustic and sound system :)

    If anyone have feedback / comments about this event, please let me know, esp. I can only attend a few events..

  • Pseudo lab 1 - research on steam of consciousness writing versus elderly dyslexia

    Tuesday, Mar 3, 2009 8:42AM / Members only


    I always shame to speak/write/think in English, even though I spent decades to learn it. Simply just not work.

    This lab is testing my intuitive in this language, which I write what I think/react/inspired by the sound/voice/chat with people and surrounding within the project period, by employed sort of ’steam of consciousness’ writing, to express my thinking/feeling without concern on grammar and vocabulary.

    I’ve started with only one short writing There is a line, before the project day.


    ——————————————————————-
    ⎢There is a line
    ⎢can never cross

    ⎢You

    ⎢Me

    ⎢Mine

    ⎢Yours

    ⎢But that’s nothing wrong

    Would you ⎢
    name the line ⎢
    read me the line ⎢

    cross the line ⎢

    ——————————————————————-

    Would you mind to give me a hand?

    Then I’ll hold it
    and tag along with you
    until you hate me


    Would you mind to give me a hand?

    ——————————————————————-

    There is a word I can’t spell
    Which spread out across the Universe

    You know what
    I know nothing about it, in real
    Even I always say


    Oh my G..

    ——————————————————————-

    My blood is brownish red

    Coffee wash my vein
    Caffeine live and breathe
    The grinder activates my heart

    Coffee colors brown
    Caffeine colors red

    But I can’t sure the color of my heart

    ——————————————————————-

    The room full of the smell of sunshine
    brightening up the corner

    The corner brighten for an hour
    still white on grey, doesn’t wash out

    I am watching the corner for an hour
    then I lose the room
    from front to rear, top to bottom


    I lose the room
    but smell

    ——————————————————————-

    Perhaps you are a good listener
    please give me 3 minutes

    count from now
    go out to the corridor
    and listen


    I tried, before you came
    then I heard your footsteps

    3 minutes after

    ——————————————————————-

    You may know nothing about me
    But you can know me
    privately

    Just come to my private view

    It will be privately, for public
    as you know, publicly
    not about private

    ——————————————————————-

    Know Zen, heard about it
    at least, you say

    Who care?
    Especially youth, you say

    Zen is
    for whom care
    not about age

    ——————————————————————-

    Am I too complicated?

    I am so stupid, to keep it simple
    Spending whole life to pretend
    an intelligent
    No time to learn how to keep it simple

    Does Intelligent’s life simple?

    ——————————————————————-

    You come to me, ask why
    for a question I don’t understand

    Why I don’t understand your question? You ask
    for a question I don’t understand


    Is that my question?

    ——————————————————————-

    Can you see the gap?
    When I saw it, first time
    I thought about it, all night long

    A man pass the gap from right, a woman from left
    they both disappear in seconds

    I’m sure you can find the gap here
    somewhere in/out the room


    I found it in/out my mind

    ——————————————————————-

    Several bags of coffee beans
    wait to be ground

    They’re all labeled, differently
    and you read them, one by one

    The label


    When you finish a cup
    What do you think remains in your mouth
    Over the tongue

    Coffee
    or label with Star?

    ——————————————————————-

    The Art of Loving
    I read, or say, never read
    because I didn’t read till end

    You think about Love
    or Loving? I doubt it

    Any different? You tell me


    No! I get it
    It’s Lov-ing! If you know the different
    it’s Love

    Don’t tell me the end
    and hope you never know

    ——————————————————————-

    You said my words are better than my works
    I smiled

    You said my works are better than me
    I laughed

    What can I say?
    They’re mine


    Unfortunately, that’s me

    ——————————————————————-

    I set up a lab, with aim
    which everyone will ask me

    I set up a lab, with aim
    an aim to find an aim

    No need to aim high

    ——————————————————————-

    I spend 50% time to think, think about you
    you feel nothing about me

    I spend 50% time to drink, drink with you
    you say you know me in depth

    Why I think so hard, drink so little

    ——————————————————————-

    You’re filming me
    when I’m recording you

    You hate your voice
    I hate my face

    Sadly, we can’t swap
    although I like your voice
    Off the record

    ——————————————————————-

    You can’t remember my name
    Hard to spell, difficult to pronounce
    horrible in shape

    The reason why people always
    be ignored, you think
    No matter how hard they tried, how great in work
    No one can be memorized, in this place


    It’s name, given by family
    please accept my apology
    plus a piece of

    memory stick

    ——————————————————————-

    My writing doesn’t make sense
    when you read it, you complained

    Its hurt
    The writing you read is the best of mine, I believe

    Perhaps I should reinforce my sense, except the primary five


    The sense of humor

    ——————————————————————-

    I had three dreams, before I grow up
    A lyrics writer
    A novelist
    An artist

    I gave up to write, in my mother language
    I decided to make, gave up my mother language

    Did you feel I betrayed you?
    My dear mother

  • PSEUDO something

    Tuesday, Feb 17, 2009 6:39AM / Members only

    Lazy again...

    I'm busying to work out an experimental project named "PSEUDO something" in a small project space...

    The idea is I'm running the space within a period of time, to invite people to read me a line, to chat, to improvise...

    It's a studio + lab! Instead of exploring about art + science, I intend to think about a stage of mind, artist vs audience, and the meaning of an art event as well...

    Nothing is concrete! I've just prepare equipments, materials and some very short writing. 50% prepared, 50% open up...

    It can be nothing, it's Pseudo!

    You never know with me. They could've given me a some weird neck probe. I didn't think it would be any good. If I see it, I'll let you know if I 1/2 like it.
  • posted on Thursday, May 7, 2009 6:54AM  [Report]

    hi. I was the artist, but work on the profession did not. My love for art is reflected in my modest drawing and watching other people's drawings

    well you're gonna have to change all the englis measurements to metric probably.

    1. boil the water and pour it into a bowl. then stir in the cocoa powder
    2. you're making a simple syrup: 1 part water to 1 part sugar. just make sure the water is hot just not boiled. once the sugar is dissolved
    you stir it into the bowl from #1. then put in your vodka
    3. do you have a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth? I'm guessing they want to make sure there arent any grandules of cocoa or sugar left. If not, then forget it. If so, strain your mixture into a jar or something with a lid.
    4. Not sure why you would strain it again. I think I might skip that part. the serving is confusing because it says shot glass and that's a martini glass I think. What the recipe describes is pousse style or a layered drink. Have you ever seen those drinks that have stripes in them? Each liquor or ingredient is separate? They pour the liquids by density, denser first. To diffuse the next liquors you pour down a spoon. I saw it done in an anime called Bartender, haha. It was a good anime I liked it. Here's the wiki for layerd drinks: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Layered_drink

    lol, well that is true, a brisk walk on a chilly morning will do it....

    personally - if it is 10 degrees out I'd rather breakfast in bed, its a much better way to wake up. haha

    it is possible easier for us down here because our populations are smaller and a lot of tv we get is US/UK we are always aware of the seasonal differences.

    personally I like it a little warmer about 20c suits me. Gee 10 degrees is getting chilly, the only time I was in London there was a heat wave (1988) but is it often cold?
