Here is my postcard in 2020.

I think technology will develop really fast in the coming 10 years, and people will figure out more about time and space.

So my idea is “Interactive film photographs”, which I don’t know what exactly it is (you didnt know what iPhone is 10 years ago!).

It is like a combination of videos and photos, or time machine (who knows?!), that people can interactive with.

P.S. I don’t think we need stamps to send postcard anymore.

spring break project

My spring break project is sketch on collage. Since I love collecting booklets, receipts, brochures and stuff. And keeping them in the drawer seems useless and messy. So i decide to make collages and print over them and draw on top of the paint. They become my mixed media visual journals. I made several for my winter break trips.

They simply tell what I did during the spring break. I had a day trip to philadelphia. And I went to photograph in DC. Also I went to movies, and started learning CSS so to create my online portfolio.

Since this is a spring break collection, they can form a BIG sketch.

[my friend kung fu fighting]

my questions:

1) Should we let photos explain themselves or let the photographers to explain them to us?

2) Is the prevailing digital image manipulation taking away the photographic integrity?

Toys are more than child’s play.

Toys are tools.

Toys are art.

Toys are for everyone.

Toys create endless possibilities.

Toys help strengthen skills.

Toys provide inspirations.

And they are fun!
