Life

I talked a little bit about life in the last post.
I will try to leave a few comments to help me remember some thoughts about life.

The environmental issues, national issues, are one of the most common topics in our era.
These problems are to be solved in order to realise the better life for more people. That's great.

But if you push forward the benefit as a community too much, it's easy to ignore the importance of individual lives.
When your grandma is suffering from bad disease, you wouldn't care about environmental issues, or national health.

Being objective, and being critical may be important in design process.
Being subjective, and being emotional may be also important in living process as an individual.
And design is for better life.

Optical Illusion






I almost love optical illusion, either 2 dimensional or 3 dimensional way.
I Designed the sticker and was going to sell it somewhere, but I didn't.
Anyway, this sticker project is spin-off of my anti-social project in Goldsmiths College.
Because i was purely interested in the visual side of this project, then tried to utilise the aesthetic side of it.

These illusion helps us to escape from mundane visual life.

It's almost like having a dream while you're awake.

Some people insist the importance of better life, but not individual-level but national, or even earth-level.
We sometimes need to have small dreams in our lives, which make us aware of the benefit, or joy of being here.
