During my childhood, the house on the top of the hillside threw me tons of questions. Things like who lived there and what part of the house the protruded thing would be when looked closer. I can’t even count how man times I had to turn back because I couldn’t cross… [More]

For people in the modern world, morning refers to the time from when you wake up to when you begin work. Although the bulk of the time is spent doing mechanical technical, automated and limited activities, just like anything else in the world, there are different vintage… [More]

A space of my own… a resting area of my own… Everyone has their own refuge. The fond memories that surround me and a glass of wine… I escape from the chaotic day-to-day life and get myself on a small time machine in search of my own place of refuge – my own memories. The camera is both a memory and a magic box that offers a space of my own… [More]

I am in search of a legendary work. It is literally a legend. Some say it is just an illusion, some say it didn’t exist at all. That may be so. It surely isn’t seen anywhere today. However, I cannot imagine that it never existed or that it vanished. Never! Why… [More]

Everyone has one’s ups and downs. A partner is a source of comfort in painful times. The streetlight at dark night and the moon are my partners that give me strength. A partner that lightens my path forward and guides me when I am lost in the dark. Streetlight and the moon – partners that brighten the dark night. Partners that shed light on us and direct us when we are crying in the night, with no clue as to where to do. The first kiss under the streetlight, fond memories under the bright moon, the way back home from a light drink… [More]

A few years before the dawn of the 20th century (not 21st century!), the former director of the United States Patents and Trademark Office wrote a serious letter to the President. ‘I think all the inventions that we can think of have been invented. I think it is time to close down the office.’ Holy cow! Putting aside the fact that the proposal carried the risk of making himself unemployed overnight, where did he get the courage to conclude that there were no inventions to be made further in a time when there was no TV, computer, airplane, digital camera, camcorder or mobile phone!… [More]

Sometimes I wish I had a navigator that can guide my life full of ups and downs. “Watch out! A curvy road 100 meters ahead!” Just like a navigation system that has a bird’s eye view of the road conditions that directs me how I should drive. How great would it be if someone can tell me which way to go? “Turn left at the next stop. Turn right at the next intersection!” Do these fish know where they are going? Trapped in mundane everyday life and heading towards the same direction, I wonder if I am… [More]

The Noble Prize winning philosopher Bertrand Russell had talked about the usefulness of ‘useless knowledge’ – how the seemingly useless knowledge encourages deliberation and enriches one’s life. For example, Bertrand talked about how apricot bears fruit earlier than other fruit and how its Latin root is the same as precocious… which dynasty in China started growing apricots among others, saying that such miscellaneous knowledge helps to make apricot jam tastier!… [More]
