Flo(at)

It’s almost the end of the semester….Physical self recently floats more rapidly than my virtual self, meaning I have to be more realistic on my physical world working on my own businesses and taking care the things that I is “more relevant” to me (it’s actually a really redundant term, since nothing [or everything] is really relevant to one).

Sometimes I feel life is like a magic orb. When business hits, everything suddenly get sucked by that orb, and my concentrations and attention all get sucked into that orb. I found myself inside, and the flow surrounds me is really fast — too fast to feel though. Outside the orb I saw everyone, calm and smoothly moving from phase to phase, point to point. I have remembered that I called that serenes, maybe not…

Sometimes I am really confused by the two different flows in the orb and outside the orb. Like sometimes I meet a no solution math question…Every formula and equation look so right, but answer never comes out. —that to me is like the nature of reality, the more you think, the more confusing it becomes!

……Life is linear, time is linear, and facts are linear. These principles make me crave for balances, the balances for the restless mind, and unsettled internal flows. “You are so confused…” I sometimes hear it from the deepest core of my body.

Confusion sounds like the wrong world to describe my state, but that’s the closest word that describes it…maybe it’s not confusion at all…

The flow inside myself is still chaotic, but to find the true peacefulness, I must close my eyes, shut my ears and walk steadily.

“Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance you must keep riding” — Einstein.

My First Flipbook

This is my first flipbook project from Design For Motion class. Just want to challenge my creativity as each character transforms.
A lot of fun in this project, and also a lot of blood and tears…

One of my childhood

Yesterday school was locked down. Downtown was damp….

With nothing to do, I decided to stay home and watch an old-school anime.

Mazinkaiser is one of my favourite robot. It recalls a lot of my childhood memories (especially robots fighting aliens..)

The storylines looks pretty childish, with the main 23-year-old character sometimes act and speak like an elementary child, but the shots are not childish at all. All villains in the movie fights like frenzy serial killers, and the blood spilling out like free when human character dies. Even when Dark General (the boss) dies, his sword sticks right into his face, and blood splashes out like crazy, which makes me a little uncomfortable.

I think this kind of anime will totally be marked as 18+ in North America, so weird that Asian marks it as PG…

The drift of dragonfly # 12

You told me emptiness is another way to fulfill the congested space of human soul. So the space of mind could be adjusted and get ready for changes. Changing meant something is different from the original. Something new is being added into the original, but you told me changing meant old variables being shifted around. New things were part of the old variables. Everything new was not being produced, but shifted its variables to become new…Emptiness is the breathing space for those variables, you said.

Human mind is incredible, you told me. Each person’s essence is being cultivated in a gap of consciousness surrounded by 4 very tall walls. Once one’s traits fill up the little gap, they have no space to escape. So they chose to show it to the people around, till the traits were totally drained. Another new personality would being cultivated…

Emptiness is different, you said, looking seriously into the night. It filled the gap, and spilled when the gap is full, but it never appeared to show in the reality. It is just a vacancy to tell the mind that the gap is ready to cultivate more personalities and emotions.

…People say they feel empty are never true, you sighed. When a shift happens or an inspiration happens because of emptiness. It’s not called feeling empty. It is loneliness.
