anis (my sis) was right.
when you have twitter, there's nothing to blog about.
HAHA.
update:
I attended "the architecture of Daniel Libeskind, Berlin and New York" lecture by a professor from Oxford Brookes; John Stevenson. (former prof of one of our lecturers) It was held at our Dewan Kuliah this morning. pretty inspiring lecture he gave out to us.
He described to us in detail what the Jewish Museum in Berlin meant philosophically and architecturally. In many ways, i agreed to almost everything that he said.
"architecture should be experiential.... to capture memories of space"
I remember how chaotic the museum was, to the point that I just wanted to lay in a box-shaped space or rather, a green area to "reformat" the feelings I had at the moment I stepped outside the museum, about 8 months ago. The spaces were too irregular that made me feel uncomfortable and somehow I felt how confused the jewish felt. (the end of the journey explained how Hitler killed most of the them) It's still very clear to me. I felt it.

2 lines of continuity and hope for Berlin
check out the shear wall in the making.. cool huh
the facade that meant continuity of people, but could also mean scars.
device to avoid birds from shitting.

the old and new museum
the first impression
yes.
its amazing how Libeskind is capable of changing one's emotion through his architecture.
anyway, just thought i could drop off some words.
the new york and chicago urban workshop has been canceled, :(
that's the bad news- no new york.
but here's the heads up : workshop in Oxford Brookes Uni, UK.
lets all pray for that one!
