早上醒來醒去,總是醒不過來,
做了一個很忙碌的夢,在小街走來走去,
上落樓梯,穿過一扇木門,在公園坐下來了
在咖啡室碰到不太熟識的朋友,跟朋友的女朋友自我介紹了一番,也沒有管他們要不要聽, 好奇怪啊..
在身旁有一個人,但是看不見,陪著我在小巷子裏走來走去,那把聲音叫我去這一邊,去那一邊,叫那個人,不如做這件事.但是連在做夢中的我也感覺眼皮乏力,睜不開眼睛, 睜開了眼睛也對不到焦點…是很努力,我很想回答,很想被理解. 但是畢竟是太累了,那是一種身不由自己的感覺…你有沒有試過這樣的感覺
….
安靜的星期六下午是個下雨天
直到早上.已經享受了好一陣子放晴的日子.
幾個小時之前姐姐還在電話那邊問我那個沙灘有沒有更衣洗澡的設備
…..
建築-城市-歷史-經歷-記憶
從前有一個外來人把他多年的經歷,事情和當地歷史寫下來,
讀過後, 感到若要真正認識一個城市,去瞭解他/她建築,那是從養份開始的,
是一層一層的,像在剝洋蔥,用自己的手一片一片拿著,放下,看下去
原來沒有一個中心,沒有總結,沒有最終目的真理…
所有的故事,點滴,和片片的真實, 已經建立在那不斷變化的社會層面上
是在人物,角色,街道,房間上,互相不斷的交錯,成為一片一片的實體,載著記憶,故事
四年前到過那裏旅遊
現在才開始感到有可能真正的去認識她
她叫拉薩...

mkw
最近周末的下午有空的时候总会跑到 k在工厂区 的 art studio坐坐
(其实那个art studio还有a 和 t的份儿,但每次也碰不到他们)
特别是不想到学校工作,但又不想待在家里看电视和半睡半醒的看书
其中k 和 w 必定会在弄她们自己的 art work exercise
而我就会坐在那个很舒服的黑色沙发上看书
难免也会小睡一会儿
这张所谓 art post polaroid, 算是一个新突破..哈哈

new toy - lamellaphone
Here is my new toy - lamellaphone (a kind of music instrument from Africa) 
Below is a photo taken from The Pitt Rivers Musuem at Oxford
http://www.prm.ox.ac.uk/
Description from Wikipedia:
Lamellaphone (also called "Lamellophone") describes any of a family of musical instruments. The name comes from the Latin root "lamella" for "plate", and the Greek root "phone" for "sound". The name derives from the way the sound is produced: the instrument has a series of thin plates, or "tongues", each of which is fixed at one end and has the other end free. When the musician depresses the free end of a plate with a finger, and then allows the finger to slip off, the released plate vibrates. A tongue may be plucked either from the top or from the bottom.
A large number of lamellaphones originate in Africa, where they are known under different names including "sanza", "kisanji", "likembe", "mbira", "mbila", and "kalimba". They play an important role in African Music. They were reported as early as the 16th century, but there is no doubt they have a much longer history. The Caribbean marimbula is also of this family.

Artist Gonkar Gyatso
This is one of the Tibetan Artists I met from this Tibetan Study conference I recently attended.
His name is Gonkar Gyatso.
I particular like his new series.
Below show two of them that he has shown in his presentation.
His new series will be shown later this year in this gallery. Watch out for people who will be in London.
