MIT

Yes my dream is to go to the MIT Media Lab.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=txl4QR0GDnU

For about 20 years I have been trying to answer the question "What do you want to be when you grow up?"

I have never had a real dream job or a certain dream for the future. My phylosophy untill now has been "why not?/ try it and see what heppens/ experience/ search / discover." But no goal. Anyway now that I am studying with people that are about to graduate I entered the "what am I gonna do with my future" way of thinking. And many (in korea) see a safe job at Samsung or LG or Hyundai as the best thing that could happen. Others are brave and their dream is to start a company. I have still 2 years left so I am not worried. yet.

I can't stop talking about my Entertainment design class. I just love it. Kim Sun Chul showed me a different world that changed my way of thinking, it's hard to tell how and what it is but I think it has to do with technology and human emotions. 2 fields that I never considered much while designing. But designing for the future! researching the newest technologies and connecting it to humans through emotions. During this class I had to imagine the future, even small details and finding out future needs. At the same time as I had to read Calvino and find my own design phylosophy. I have never liked a class so much. I have never dedicated my free time for a home work. And thanks to Eunji and Doha we have been travelling with our thoughts for entire nights. What will humans care about in the future, what are the relations that will never change, wich part of us will remain and wich will be digital? He suggested to take a look at the Media Lab MIT

I started to watch Sci-Fi and futuristic movies. (really?) yes, I'm still working on trying to enjoy the lame story lines and hollywood style hours of action. But what is it that makes me love with these movies? The fact that behind every single scene there is a thought. Someone has been thinking as I have been thinking, how will the future look like? How will we live? what are the shapes of the future. and many times I arrived to the same conclusion as them, so I wonder, how did they get there? That would be an amazing job. Designer in the film industry. Using my creativity.

I have almost always been thought that everything has to be rational. Rational thinking --> good decision. But I learned today in my human engineering class that most of the times humans don't make rational decisions. So what do we follow? How do we make decisions? No one knows exactley. And when you have to find a new shape, it doesn't really work either. What is inspiration and how can I translate emotions into shapes?

I'm quite fed up by rational thinking and efficency these days. Even though I get angry if my computer is slow.

I could go on for ages writing about this subject. But I have to use my time efficently to have time to be unefficient.

Anyway Media Lab äger och jag vill dit. Det är min dröm.

Seoraksan bilder 2

Kategori: Allmänt

These are pictures I got from other people, I guess mainly it's food, rocks and pose pictures. But it's ok.

The trip started on Buddha's Birthday --> holiday --> traffic jam --> 9 hours instead of 3

we had lunchbreak on the way with ramion fro everyone!!

here I learned how to use the ramion pakage as a bowl for eating.

I the evening we arrived and the camping place was full so we drove further and finally set up our tents along the Sokcho beach. It was windy and cold and we had to wake up at 4 am, just 5 hours sleep TT TT

breakfast and prepare lunchbox at 4am.

after half an hour drive and 1 h hiking we reached the start.

ah! no holds....you have to trust your feet.

long way to go..

the other group was climbing this.

Mun and Profe were first

and finally I had almost finished too!

Finally we reached the top! Higher Than Now, is the name of the club, and I am not responsible for the logotype...

going down! always a little bit scary.

Exhausted. Best picture. Describes how dead I was and how beautiful.

Dinnerrrrrrrr. Lice

We were supposed to climb the day after but it was raining so we went to a temple and did some touristic stuff

And finally we went to a restaurant famous for this dish: Nengmyon. A cold soup with buckwheat noodles and vegetables. Smaskigt!

Förklaring av multi pitch

Kategori: Allmänt

Det finns flera olika sätt att klättra, när man klättrar multi pitch då är det oftast längre sträckor bestående av flera delar (pitch) därav namnet mulit-pitch. Vanligtvis när man klättrar korta sträckor är det en person som klättrar och en som säkrar. Men i MP säkrar man varandra. Här är en video som förklarar

OLED competition

Kategori:

Yes it's done! Incredible but true, in 10 days 동하 (Dong Ha) and me we made it and submitted 8 hours before the deadline. The competition was created by LG and the brief was to design a lamp with OLED technology. For the last week every afternoon and evening/night I spent it working on this project, it's been hard but I enjoyed every part of it because working with Dong Ha is really easy. We think in a similar way and we have a lot of fun while working. I'm really proud of our job :-) now we just have to wait until June to see the results. Thank you thank u thank u 동하!!

Friendship festival

Kategori:

Lots of food from all over the world. I had Moroccan couscous, some pancake from El Salvador and spring rolls from Thailand. And a caipirosca from brazil. All in Seoul <3 all the European stands had sausages. Pretty boring. And Congo had the best music.
