The word "geek" or "otaku" doesn't seem enough to describe who I am. Yes I'm obsessed with objects, in particular stationery and photography related objects/images, but there are more beyond logos and I strive to escape from Plato's cave knowing how limited I am as a human being, so what you see here is only the shadow of my self, which is beyond description. Anyway, corporeal objects are shadows of another existence, they (things I adhere to) often amuse me because they reflect the higher/true self behind in tiny little ways. I enjoy reflections from objects.
Here's my recent adventures:
- a book given to me as a gift from a Japanese colleague – Love & Free by Ayumu Takahashi
- from 9 o'clock: Futurama tin toy figure acquired in September NY Gift Show
- a light bulb burned out for over 6 months in Times Square store and nobody aware of it. Its a souvenir I need to remind myself to talk to them about operations issues. I used a marker to write on the glass surface the story
- GTD Action Magnet: My own design, a set of 5 strong magnets designed to be used as reminders of the GTD practise. It will be on production in January and arrive our store exclusively. I shall post more about this once it gets more solid
- White Xmas wreath decorated with white LED light on the surface, blue LED on the background: a proud combination I did for this year's Xmas, it is now hanging on my front door
- Reindeer and slate: I love the white/red combination, so when I saw this display in Festival Walk mall, I took this moody picture right away
- Crabtree & Evelyn Xmas shopping bag: I love the drawing a lot! Someday I will paint something similar but with my own twist
- Coffee at 9pm: after dinner, exhausted but motivated, a boost of energy for the rest of the night's work
- Antique Dymo and stamps: they are sort of same in certain sense – labeling. All acquired as my antique stationery collection
