I guess I've always been very conscious of time. Units of time have been agreed upon, but each individual relates to those in a different manner. How can technology empower individuals so these may be increasingly aware of social performance as a constant negotiation of slightly desynchronized time units as opposed to constantly try to impose a unified rule of time.

The year of the Tiger
Integration to any alien culture is a progressive process. Singapore is no exception. It started roughly. Jet lag kills me. New year's eve went by like an out of body experience.
Soon after I started to see the sights. And what sights. This place is beautiful! (although I guess I can find beautiness anywhere. Its always there).
During the week I'm an architect. During the weekend I'm an explorer. Still, I've been living a quiet life. Relaxation above all. My pool and my bicycle are great companions, as is my Liverpoolmaniac flatmate.
Southeast Asia is a fascinating region, and Singapore is the melting pot. Everyone is here. The malay, the chinese, the Philippinos, Indians, Indonesians, vietnamese, you name it. There is one thing they all celebrate: CHINESE NEW YEAR! (even the indians and the portuguese join in for the party)
Come discover a bit about this fascinating event on the second chapter of my INDOCHINA videos.
