The Laughter Of TAO



During my recent visits to Hong Kong ,I have come across the exhibition of Chinese Contemporary Artist Yue Min Jun.His work  was very impressive and had a very current way of depicting what he had to say.All the paintings left me with mixed feelings of sadness ,loneliness and at the same time a devilish urge to set free of these rather heartbreaking notes.
 As it is widely believed in psychology and science ;even a fake smile sends signals to your brain that, it is not all that bad.Yue Min Jun is reflecting this, in his "Silly Smile"series.Tao is definitely not smiling but ,at least he is trying..I just wanted to reach out and, take his pain away..

Look out for Yue Min Jun's new works..

Scan Me !!!



      Business cards are about to disappear from our lives, just as love letters left us during last twenty years.New way of introducing yourself will be ,scanning each other.Instead of reaching out for the small rectangle cards ,we will be pointing out our smartphones to someone's QR code.It is impossible to compare the amount of the information you can get via QR code ,as it is unlimited.

 So far ,it has been said that QR codes are populer amongs men as sixty percent of the readers are men users.Patience is also required ,as you can not succeed in scanning  all the time because of certain aspects like low light and shaky hands. But ,these lowdowns are predicted to be developed very soon.


I can imagine smart executive men men wearing cufflinks similar to the ones  above ,rather than carrying business cards in the future.
Storing information such as your medical details also can be a lifesaver ,if you happen to have an accident.If medics find out your QR code on a bracelet ,it will help them scan your emergency info and find out all your history of your past.I think it is time to get used to these black and white graphics .They will be around for a long run.


First Choice - I got a feeling
