3D Audio Android App
I met Ted Chen and Phyo Ko Ko at the Singapore Mini-Maker Faire last week. They are behind this really cool Android app called “3D Audio” that allows you to listen to your music in 3D mode. You can control where you want your stereo sound to come from, two sound channels for left and …

Lumino Kinetic + Beyond
This was a Masters thesis project by a Japanese lady done last year in 2012. It is an incredibly beautiful work of art/design. It makes use of the properties of light to create an animated light sculpture in a piece of crystal placed on top of a mobile phone screen. The science behind this work …
Of neighbourhoods past and present
Gosh. I can’t remember the last time I attempted creative writing. I wrote this 1,500 word piece for poskod.sg, based on my field research for the book ‘A House is not a Home’. I tried to adapt the writing style to fit the online magazine – a personal and prosaic style. I still think my writing …

“Abstraction” – my diploma graduation theatre project
The publicity event poster for the diploma graduation project I’m working on with my classmates as well as theatre students. I’m responsible for the sound operation for this show and designed a GUI in Pure Data to playback and mix sounds in real time. The theatre student I’m working with is rather experienced in mixing …

iLight Marina Bay 2012
I like the idea of a light festival that promotes a sense of place making as well as the idea of sustainable energy. Marina Bay is Singapore’s newest financial centre, and the iconic Marina Bay Sands symbolises the first world status of Singapore. This is a good location to use site-specific art to engage the …
