Bergen, Norway

These 2 days, I was asked to do some research on subjects "Bergen, a city in Norway" and "Light Rail" because there will be a visual identity project working for a new launch of light rail there. And what I am doing is just enabling me get knowing about some background of it first. During finding, there is a railway from Oslo to Bergen which is most appreciated by travellers for it's beautiful scenics. Really want to have a try! link

Just funny

I Gave You My Heart, You Gave It Away!

Penthouse

As the guest house is fully booked, and I didn't find another place yet, I had to move to the penthouse. Though it's half of the normal price, there was just a bed and a hanging light. The thing is there is no door! This is a gay house actually! I can see they are walking pass just with underwear and a piece of towel. It's really a "Penthouse"!

The first day in Kontrapunkt

1 Dec. 2006. It's my first day in Kontrapunkt. Exciting!!! link

In the Carstens Guest House

It's Copenhagen. I stayed at the Carstens Guest House for the first few nights. It located at the city centre. The place was clean n tidy. The city's not that cold at the moment, around at 8-10C. But it's almost cloudy these days. The winter daytime here was so short that the dawn began at about 7:30am and it"s all dark at about 5pm. The time ran 7 hours behind that in Hong Kong. Through my room's window, I can see the sunrise, but it's already 8am.

I can fly...

Almost a month delay due to the slow processing of the work visa, I take the fly finally and start this adventurous trip on 28 Nov. 2006.

A wind band

It's a youth wind band performance in Covent Garden, London. I liked the solo part. I don't know why, it's just so touching to me!

Tokyo street singer

I have long been wanting to share this video clip which I took during the trip in Japan and I find it here the right platform to do it now. Many young people performed in the park, whatever drama, story telling, music and etc. And I was excited that the band is so high standard! I loved that atmosphere. I almost spent couples of hours there. It's full of energy and joy!

The Tokyo Type Directors Club Seminar...

The 2 days seminar finished. There are speakers from Japan, UK and Hong Kong. Each of them had their own design journey, which enabling audiences look into their minds of creativity. It's really a good platform for ideas sharing! By the way, there are some valuable things to learn, such as their experimenting ideas on typography, graphic design and the process of rebranding the company image – Suntory (A group of many Japanese beverage brands). But I think there are things not being well at the same time. What I got sometimes are quite fragmented ideas or stories. Sometimes, I am not quite sure about their stand point or concluding idea finally. Maybe, there are problems in language translation, the "old man" voice is really unbearable: sometimes disconnected, boring tone, which just made my mind travel around. Anyway, no talk no gain, just being critical!!! The motifs of this seminar is so good and hope will have more enjoyable activities of this kind in the future...
