A sorta short story :: 001

"Today, I got caught in a heavy shower while walking along the street. Fortunately, I had my umbrella and my rain-cape; however, both were in the boot of my car, which was parked some way away. While I was running to get them, I thought about the strange epilogue life signals us all: we always have the necessary resources to face the storms that life throws at us, but most of the time, those resources are locked up in the depths of our heart, and we waste an enormous amount of time trying to find them. By the time we've found them, we have already been defeated by adversity."

You know now; always be prepared.

The Coen Brothers should do a collaboration with Alan Ball.

The Coen Brothers have got to be in my TOP 3 list of favorite filmmakers. It all started with Fargo, one of my all time favorite movie (I heart Willliam H. Macy since then. And am I the only one who sees the resemblance in William and Flanders from Simpsons?). The brilliance in the variety of odd characters they create, the cinematography and of course the storyline. Their latest film was released on October 2nd 2009, but I'm pretty sure its VISA has been declined here in Malaysia, and will forever be. Cause yea.. A Serious Man is about Jews. Ah Long in SS2 will get it for us, surely :)

I'm eager to write more about the brothers, but my brain is currently re-booting from the long weekend. So I'll bake that another day.

Kid, I hope you will be like this pencil when you grow up.

Qualities of a pencil:

"First quality: now and then, we have to stop writing and use a sharpener. That makes the pencil suffer a little but afterwards, he's much sharper. So you, too, must learn to bear certain pains and sorrows, because they will make you a better person.

Second quality: the pencil always allows us to use an eraser to rub out any mistakes. This means that correcting something we did is not necessarily a bad thing; it helps to keep us on the road to justice.

Third quality: what really matters in a pencil is not the wooden exterior, but the graphite inside. So always pay attention to what is happening inside you.

Fourth quality: it always leaves a mark. In just the same way you should know that everything you do in life will leave a mark, so try to be conscious of that in your every action."

Gaki no tsukai - 5 Rangers

Known as the 5 Rangers, this Japanese comedy is a series of 13 episodes, about 6min each. @aletbahaya recommended to watch all episodes to get the humor, and indeed, you MUST watch all episodes. Also if you are into fashion/costumes, this is for you.
Give yourself an hour to watch them all, bend your mind like the Japanese would, and allow yourself to have a good giggle. Seems that the actors are longtime comedians and well known to the country.

Nico Digi - VQ1005

So I've been showing my moody faces at office for the past few months, due to too many irritating reasons. One day OK, one day KO. Lucky me, it's an "all girls" office so they have all been very understanding and supportive of my PMS days. And even if I hide my bad days with a smile on, the girls just know when I am down, for the real.
Last friday, after our french toast teatime, @dramajess took me out for a ciggie break and had a nice little chat. It's nice when people actually take the time to ask you "how you've been doing girl?", or "how was your day?". Too many people tend to forget the importance of that.. as we chatted away, @dramajess pulled out a little (but BIG in meaning) present she got for me :D JOY JOY (as she'd always say)
This tiny Nico Digi - VQ1005 camera, which i had never seen before. You see, @dramajess has always been very supportive of my blog, AND my passion for photography. She knew i had resorted to using a disposable camera until I'd have the "duit" to buy myself a digital one. This present is to inspire me with my passion and through my little down days. This gesture is priceless Jess, extremely thoughtful of you. THANKS A MILLION ON DA ROCK!!!

Look now what I've shot over the past few days. Didn't get a picture of @dramajess that day cause she was sick at home. She's feeling better now and indeed good karma got her back. Future is looking bright for you next month woman :)

Gummo :: Cock-a-Doodle-Doo

This movie has got to be one of the most hyperrealistic yet surreal film in my library. It was a VHS tape we bought in 2002. Alas my VHS tape player has literally exploded 3 years ago. Made in 1997, it was written and directed by Harmony Korine who created a collage of vignettes depicting offbeat characters living series of randomness rather than having a linear narrative. It isn't for the soft soul, it is twisted as a pig's tail. In all, it is disturbing yet splendid and very memorable.



The plot itself has very little to say, but the documentary-like cinematography draws us into another universe during the entire film. Gummo exploits a range of issues such as: profanity, animal cruelty, grief, homophobia, sexual abuse, mental illness, violence and much, much more.. such an unusual style, as provocative as it could be, and eccentric in variety. Whether you love the film or hate it, you'll probably find yourself watching the entire thing anyway. Here's Rabbit opening the credit:



"Gummo premiered at the 24th Telluride Film Festival on August 29, 1997. During the screening, numerous people got up and left during the initial cat drowning sequence."

The Cove :: Flipper the dolphin ideology?

The recent documentary The Cove has been one of many teatime talks lately. It won the Audience Award for Best Documentary at the 2009 Sundance Film Festival. I have not yet seen the documentary, but from the look of the trailer it does seem like a pretty fierce production work .

Documentary :: The Cove

However, I am still feeling very controversial about this documentary. This line made me feel the documentary was exaggeratedly dramatized: "When we first got to the country we had no idea who was following us..do you think they know we're here?...we didn't know if it was the whalers, or the Japanese mafia." This wouldn't happen if you did your homework on who you might piss off in the Japanese fishing business before you get there. From the trailer, it just seems the documentary focuses more about the secretive, the forbidden, the mafia, the drama, the hidden camera perspective which gets any human being hyped about because we all love voyeurism now don't we. The Cove better be full of relevant facts, and from all perspectives.

For your information, mercury is not only found in dolphins, but also in tuna and swordfish, yet we still love our tuna mayo sandwiches, don't we? I guess tunas are just too butt-ugly to make a documentary about. I can't help but commenting on this rather selfish westernized thinking. You have to accept reality and actually respect the cultures of different countries. In India, we all know that cows are sacred and will always be. Have you seen them making movies and protesting about our culture of beef eating? And gawd knows how the reckless slaughtering of many cows would flip your stomach upside down if you saw it for yourself.

Good on the people who actually dig dedicating their lives to riding dolphins and holding on tight to them so the fishermen won't be able to hunt them down. As for the rest who sit home, criticize and rage against a minority of Japanese for having a different culture than yours, I recommend you focus your energy on doing something more productive and actually relevant to the life you are living and directing. Get your own flight ticket to Japan and hunt down the fishermen if you really care. But don't complain if the whole of India comes after you for having that grilled steak while waiting to board your flight at the airport.


The team of "The Cove" better be serious extremist vegetarians.

This man is living in fame. Dan Deacon is best known for his live shows where he keeps his electronic music devices to ground level, mixing with the crowd at his feet. He loves to get the crowd involved with his sets, and will very often get everyone to do crazy performances, such as getting the crowd to run in a huge circle making a human spiral. And it works everytime, INSANE!

He studied electro-accoustic and computer music composition at the Conservatory of Music at Purchase College in New York. He also shared classes with the talented Soviet-born singer/songwriter Regina Spektor. I know..waaaaah o.O

His music videos are damn raw, but there are few questionable "easter eggs" which keeps the interest going. Check it out, straight to the tripping point.

This world needs a new kind of army - The Army of the Kind.

Lately, I had slowly stepped away from being nice candy to everybody as I have let myself be the "doormat" way too much. I can blame others, but I blame myself most, I'm like that, I'm neurotic. After a series of disappointing events the past years, I recently learnt to prioritise my values and to actually take a stand to apply them in my life. To sum it up, it's about living life, in FULL honesty. FULL STOP.

Last night proved to be another inspiring moment. I watched the latest Pixar film "UP" together with @ellyberrie. I had absolutely no expectations from it, did not know the story behind, and that made it even more extraordinary. I teared up twice, of joy and marvel. I laughed out loud so hard, like that contagious laugh only @tianna aka Tee-Rex can trigger in me. It was by far the best Pixar work, so much goodness to it, in so many aspects. A phenomenal work which reminds us of kindness and love, and the importance to live the adventure of life to the fullest. I am having a kind day, by choice. Kindness is the golden chain by which society is bound together. And as Plato once said:

"Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle."

Captain Abu Raed :: I see magic.

Was there a rabbit in the hat? I think not. It's another kind of magic..
I've been having serious goosebumps hearing about this film. Captain Abu Raed (2007) was written and directed by Amin Matalqa, and is the first feature film produced in Jordan in more than 50 years. The film has won high recognition through numerous awards since its first release, including the Sundance Film Festival Award 2008.

I'm a little baffled that the movie has only been released in US and other few countries this August 2009. I doubt it will be shown here, nevertheless, I'll get my hands on it one way or another. I recently saw an interview of Amin Matalqa with Riz Khan on Al-Jazeera while having lunch at mamak. I'll tell you that was the best lunch time I've had in a while :) Some of the kids acting in the movie were discovered in refugee camps and orphanages. In one of Amin's interview, he recalls his first encounter with this little boy (one of the main cast), and he asked the boy:
« What do you want to be when you grow up?
and the little boy replied joyfully:
- I want to be a captain!»
Amin smiled, it was an obvious match.
Watch the trailer here, and let's a organize a communal viewing I say. This makes me smile.

Speech Debelle: she fresh like a cucumber in yogurt.

« I'm getting older now, I'm starting to make sense of it. »
Speech Debelle has got the humbleness in the rap and that's a first innit now? There's no argument that her songwriting, lyric and diction all together stand strong and represent Europe in style; she's Brit-British yep. She slides playful whispers on her words with a youthful warmth and confidence. She pierces a deeper darkened honesty with each rhyme done. She's fresh to the flex and still humble. I said that already, but it's worth saying in twice really. Cause when you're not a hiphop fan in general, rap artists can only take your grip with their authentic original skills and style. That's when they get your appreciative recognition.
Speech Debelle :: The Key



In her case, it's the offbeat, upbeat, jazzy, folky production of the album that makes her stand on her own boulder. She's humble in her dresser too. It's a good change from today's fashion rumble.

If you ain't convinced of her astounding talent, do me a favor and GIVE THIS VIDEO A GO. A live street performance proves a true artist. High props to the band too. Start the day with it, it's breezy.

My First Whateverthatwas Anonymous Session.

Sundays are my favorites, for I rise early in the morning and get a full on day going. I wasn't always an early birdie, but I really enjoy making the most of my days now. I attended a workshop preview with @ovidiawang in the afternoon at 95%. We arrived late probably due to our sense of loss in direction when looking for Wisma Dicklin.

After we sign in for a quickadeequak registration, girl guides us to the meeting room. Not the typical workshop seating layout I expected. @ovidiawang and I found ourselves seating on the two last chairs of the semi-circle facing the lecturer, @MsJanet, at the two very ends of eachother. I am surprised they didn't label the chairs with our names..Hmm. The truth is @MsJanet knew more about what/who/why I was brought to that meeting more than I actually did. So what is 95percent? 95% according to 95percent:

"It is said that if you give a man a fish he eats for a day. But if you teach a man to fish, he will eat for a lifetime. We go beyond that. We lead him to discover why he wants a fish. Once he understands why catching fish is important to him, he will search out the best way, or even create his own way, of catching fish.

At 95%, we provide skills trainings that are built on a foundation of personal growth. This empowers the individual while developing the skills."

It's about generating the most inventive ideas and carry them forward while taking risks, whether your ideas succeed or fail. This workshop is definelty most relevant for the advertising field, whether you do copywriting or design. Yet, it has proven to improve varied personal skills in many other fields. It's learning how to generate and have the courage to execute a creative/innovative idea, without popping a pile.

Great publicity shared by @MsJanet yesterday:

I do this OCT - On Company Time

Being in the creative department, I consider this time researching and blogging valuable and relevant to my work. I need to reboot and rejenerate my creative cells every now and then. Besides swinging by creative/designers websites and magazines, it is a must to educate myself with other irrelevant randomness. Because when you dig your nose for an idea, you often get the lightbulb triggered by the most random and unrelated subjects to your work.

@natashanair directed my attention to this article in CREATIVE REVIEW online magazine. Created by the Sydney based ad agency Publicis Mojo, here is one of the six typographical posters that was sent to CR recently.

See now how my random research OCT could be just as handy for future work. From urbandictionary.com:

DROP THE NEEDLE: to play a vynil record.

CLAP BACK: to return fire (eg: if someone shoots at you, you clap back at their ass.)

EAR WORM: a song that is stuck in your head.

COLD LAMPIN: innactive, chillin' similar to the cool temperature of a light in a lamp that has not been used in some time.

CHEVROLEG: the kind of vehicle you own when you can't afford a car.

LOCK BLOCK: when one person prematurely tries to open the passenger door on a vehicle while the driver simultaneously unlocks the door, causing it to relock and keep the passenger outside.

GREEN THE LIGHT: used by a frustrated person who believes he/she can ask the help of a higher power to make a traffic light turn green for him/her. It originates from firemen who actually have the power to make the light turn green.

That's my own creative poster time, inspired by the creative and the randomness. Quickly done OCT, no time wasted.

Metric - Live It Out

Lotsa splashing rock alternative bands come from Canada, like Metric. Bands which have brought a live stage to life. Of Metric's discography, I have to say Live It Out has got the most punch of all. It conclusively made it hard to beat, but the latest release Fantasies still remains one of the best album for 2009.

You see, Metric always manages to add that pinch of unknown spice within a song and breaks the conventional song structure we are all so familiar with (the verse, the chorus, then verse II, then the chorus again, then the breaker, then the chorus..i haven't got any decent musical technical terms in my catalogue besides THIS. Nevertheless, I'm sure you all get where I'm at.). I strongly sense from those videos, that Metric is better live than recorded. Emily Haines has got much more attitude and honesty in her singing when on stage. Plus the stage production / lighting. Shit like that always bring me to tears, of ecstatic happiness. On the album, it's a little more controlled, better pitch maybe. But we like them loud and raw. Just like that:

Kenapa ko takleh multi-task? Because you are men.

Women are better at multi-tasking than men are, at work and in life. That's a fact. We can jaga a career, family, friends, hobbies, household choirs and anything else, you name it, we can DO IT simultaneously. Nike should consider endorsing more women for the simple fact that we JUST DO IT without being affected by other tasks in our lives. Yep, we've got multiple channels in our brain that allow us to think, do and listen at the very same time. Take Sir Ken in his speech at TEDTalks about Creativity, I quote (a lot lately):

« There's a shaft of nerves that joins the two hemispheres of the brain called the corpus collasum, and it's thicker in women. Falling off from Hellenistic era. I think this is probably why women are better at multi-tasking. Because you are, aren't you? There's a raft of research, but I know from my personal life.
If my wife (Terri) is cooking a meal at home.. (pause) ..which is not often.. (pause) ..thankfully.(LOL) No but she's good at some things. But if she's cooking, she's dealing with people on the phone, she's talking to the kids, she's painting the ceilings, she's...doing open heart surgery, over here.(LOL) If I am cooking, the door is shut, the kids are out, the phone is on the hook and if she comes in I get annoyed. I say Terri pleease, I'm trying to fry an egg in here!(LOL again) Give me a break!»

Kids aren't afraid of being wrong.

Following my latest post about being right v.s wrong, and how that affects our creativity and originality, I'd like to share one of Sir Ken's anecdotes which makes me laugh every single time. I will post his video from TEDTalks in the next post, but this quote is for the lazy ones who don't believe the video IS really worth watching:

«I heard a great story recently, of a little girl who was in a drawing lesson. She was six and she was at the back drawing. The teacher said this little girl hardly ever paid attention, but in this drawing lesson she did. So the teacher was fascinated, she went over to her and said:
- What are you drawing?
And the girl said:
- I'm drawing a picture of god.
And the teacher said:
- But nobody knows what God looks like.
And the girl said:
- They would in a minute!»

PRICELESS :))

Fail. Fail again. Fail better.

I recently got the book "It's not how good you are, it's how good you want to be.", a best-seller by Paul Arden, whom in 1977 became Executive Creative Director at Saatchi & Saatchi. The few books he has compiled are brief recollections of his learning in the business during those 15years. (We should also mention he was in advertising for 18years previous to that.) @alushaness was given the book "Whatever you think, think the opposite" by her dad as an inspirational guidance to her transition in her career path. Thumbs up for that!

I wanted to share an extract of the book I got. That it's wrong to be right, and it's right to be wrong :


«BEING right is based upon knowledge and experience and is often provable. Knowledge comes from the past, so it's safe. It is also out of date. It's the opposite of originality. Experience is built from solutions to old situations and problems. The old situations are probably different from the present ones, so that old solutions will have to be bent to fit new problems (and probably fit badly). Also the likelihood is that, if you've got the experience, you'll probably use it.

This is lazy.

Experience is the opposite of being creative. If you can prove you're right, you're set in concrete. You cannot move with the times or with other people. Being right is also being boring. Your mind is closed. You are not open to new ideas. You are rooted in your own rightness, which is arrogant. Arrogance is a valuable tool, but only if used very sparingly. Worst of all, being right has a tone of morality about it. To be anything else sounds weak or fallible, and people who are right would hate to be thought fallible.

So: it's wrong to be right, because people who are right are rooted in the past, rigid-minded, dull and smug. There's no talking to them.»


«START being wrong and suddenly anything is possible. You're no longer trying to be infallible. You're in the unknown. There's no way of knowing what can happen, but there's more chance of it being amazing than if you try to be right. Of course, being wrong there's a risk. People worry about suggesting stupid ideas because of what others will think. You will have been in meetings where new thinking has been called for, at your original suggestion. Instead of saying, "That's the kind of suggestion that leads us to a novel solution", the room goes quiet, they look up to the ceiling, roll their eyes and return to the discussion.

Risks are a measure of people. People who won't take them are trying to preserve what they have. People who do take them often end up by having more. Some risks have a future, and some people call them wrong. But being right may be like walking backwards proving where you've been.

Being wrong isn't in the future, or in the past. Being wrong isn't anywhere but being here.
Best place to be, eh?»

It relates back to the importance of creativity, which supports Sir Ken Robinson's speech on TEDTalks, "SCHOOLS KILL CREATIVITY". We have all been taught from a young age that making mistakes will make you fail, in school, and later in life. But in reality, only children will take a chance at failure. If they don't know (from experience and teaching, unlike us adults), they'll have a go. Children are not afraid to take risks, they are not frightened of being wrong. If you are not prepared to be wrong, you'll never come up with something original. And this is the reason why children are at their highest creativity state, when they take a chance without worrying for the consequences.

The next meeting, I'm throwing my idea on a paper plane.
