raining Amsterdam

There is keep raining slightly with gender wind in the journey of Amsterdam, but it is doesn't matter for this amazing trip when I walk in the alley. I prefer raining night in the city, to see the wet street reflect windows' light of street store. It's obviously sparse populated in that time and the canal doesn't looks that special anymore when it be compared with this raining night.

First three idea of artwork that can communication with artpiece, audience and artist

Uni-direction communication?

To create an art work that can reactive audience behavior is a simple purpose, the difficult thing is how to make it interesting?

First at all, I consider a very uncomplicated concept, use the audience's route to display the reaction, I build a spiral staircase and hanging many bulbs around it and set sensor in each stair step, when people walk through the stair, a part of bulbs will turn off.

When people keep walking, the light will keep change to effect the route and display a dynamic art piece.

"Do you miss Farnham?"

那天從London回Canterbury時天色早已黑透了，在路上順道去了Sainsbury買了兩瓶可樂，結帳時碰巧遇到Halo，雖然我們一起從Farnham搬到了Canterbury，但他是BA的學生所以通常也不會見到，他用那在Farnham時慣用的熱情跟我打招呼，我們穿過停車場走到緊鄰Great Stour河旁的小路，他往左我往右，我們互道再見後往反方向離開，走了幾步後他叫住我

Halo："Do you miss Farnham?"

我："Yes, I do."

[PSEAD]Friday, London, Southbank, raining day

Milliennium Bridge

To London, I always have a  expect image about this city, history, art, culture, Sherlock and Thames River, this is my third time to London and first time so close to Thames.

Walk through Southbank, under London Bridge, there have two different museum located there, Design Museum and Tate Modern, design one and art one.

Design Museum

Design museum display a lot of product, designed stuff, media, technology around our life, you can see the newest invent and idea of this world, something interesting, creatively, and disable helpful.

Tate Modern

The Tate Morden collect more fine art work, a lot of gallery to show different art topic, and the wonderful thing is the amazing interior, clean but atmosphere, the route between these two museum with wonderful river scene, and in my opinion, the most English thing in that day is the lightly rain.

[PSEAD] be a maker

Nowadays people own a lot of knowledge from books, website and everywhere, knowledge become easy to get, but people forget to create to think to invent events from regular life.

The documentary 'maker' told people how interesting and important for make something by yourself, they said maker movement is third industrial revolution, the revolution can change the world again.

The film encourage  people make new things by tools, means you have to create by hands, I think it's can really inspired people to consider how and what methods to solve problems we have.

Because when you try to make some device to improve the world, you will find more opportunity and more idea of the process and methods, this is a sense of create value, to develop material and technique.

Linking different people and culture is a difficult topic, we have to thinking what cause those problem and make them visible, first we tried to use 'language' to be our topic, we wanna raise that different language should not stop people connect each other.
