been to the UtterRubbish at the Singapore Design Festival and I was very inspired.

AH. but damn today's their last day. my procrastination has robbed you guys of chances to visit the beautiful exhibits. but nevermind it's ok. here's something that lingered after the exhibit.

1. wefeelfine --> http://www.wefeelfine.org/

the artist, johnathan harris (according to the volunteer at the installation, is uber cute) designed this search program to scour every weblog in the vast Net to hunt down any sentence with the word "I feel" and records it in their database. the program will then discriminate the findings into categories like "happy" "sad" or "sexy" or "lonely" or "mad" and many many others. the feelings are also grouped according to the ages of the bloggers and the location. so you can find feelings from singapore females aged 20-29! and just a little titbit; Singapore is the saddest city in the world. on average.

2. FLOWmarket -->http://www.theflowmarket.com/

the installation at UtterRubbish was this minimalist retail space selling posters and bottled products. makes you think twice when consuming goods. here's some samples that i love.
