So. Here we are again. It just occurred to me that it has been 15 days since I last posted about something, when I actually wanted to write more posts about some more things. But anyway… here we are again. In September 2019, I went to an event called “Berlin Graphic Days” in Kreuzberg and […]

Happy New Year 2020! I wish everyone peace and wholeness this year forward. While so little has changed in our physical space from 23:59 the year before to 00:01 the next year (today’s magenta sky looks similarly tantalizing with one of yesterday); and the concept of weeks, months, years, etc. is the way it is […]

Berlin on a Tuesday
March 27, 2018. After 16 hours of sitting on an almost empty bus, mostly filled with Russian-speaking passengers (effectively nullifying me from any sort of linguistic comprehension during the entire ride), I finally stepped out at Berlin’s central bus station. “It is a vacation,” I assured myself. “It is my vacation.”

Beberapa saat yang lalu, saya menonton lagi paparan Tom Fisher (University of Minnesota) tentang Desain dan Etika Berarsitektur yang disampaikan dalam acara Solutions for the Other 90%, yang dulu juga pernah disampaikan di salah satu kelas Etika Profesi. Fisher mengungkapkan bahwa sebagai arsitek dan desainer, keberpihakan kita dalam merancang secara nyata memberikan efek yang permanen […]
“You know, Zaha Hadid did something in Vienna too.” A friend of mine, who isn’t an architect but strangely very knowledgeable, told me. “Let’s go there since you’re into those stuff.” He continued. – That’s my first encounter with Zaha’s design: the library of Wirtschaftsuniversität Wien/University of Economics Vienna. I don’t know if it’s just […]
