I always have this kind of envy towards certain groups of people. Particularly groups of creative kids who are able to live their live on what they are passionate for. Arts and music. I feel like, oh why can’t I be one of them? Why can’t I hang out with the cool guys? Why am I alone here doing things I like?
I mean, among me and my close friends here in UTP, it seems that I’m the only guy who are into web+graphic design and stuff. Oh yeah luckily my roommate is also into this art stuff. But it is not enough. I need to find new friends. haha
I always have this kind of dream of having some kind of team/group, creative team or something like that. Just look at some local art group out there. ( Just because you think Facebook is the ‘one step ahead‘, don’t be too arrogant to browse through MySpace. There are a lot potential there.) Bunch of kids doing the things the love. Of course there are a lot of posers too. Selling crappy t-shirts just to be famous among the community. I know, I used to plan of having this clothing thing works with some of friends early this year. Not actually working though. The excuse? We are too far apart from each other. I’m here in UTP, the other guy in KL and the other one in..er JB? Failed. Those kids are cool though.
My local idol for now is art:tech from the famous 84cube. Just look at his Fotopages. I actually browsed all the way to his first post, just to see how fun his life is. And I love his artworks+doodles. Oh I’m so jealous. 84cube is a big name now. Been stalking them from the beginning. One of them, Nvrmndo, is (was?) a UTP student too. There is one team in UTP though, at least from what I know. Paperme. Cool guys with potential. Been watching one of the designer too – Melongray. And oh, the vocalist of the band is also one of the member.
See, this is kind of thing that I want. How fun is that to design a poster for a gig, a cover album for local indie band and stuff like that. Contribution to the creative community.
Recently there was Colourama. Organized by Bangkit and Weareenvy. A very brilliant event I must say. Go on, read more about the event. Looking at the photo in the Organiser post makes me envy so much. It must be so much fun to organize this kind of event – together with your friends – without the unnecessary pressure of birocracy or whatsoever (well, maybe there were some?)
Next is RANtAi Revelation. I’m going with Nazir later. Want to join? Girls only. Haha. Kidding. ok, not.
Now, we need something like this in UTP. Possible? There was one event last few weeks. Art fest or something like that. I went to take a look, but.. sorry to say, not that interesting. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t want to be an ass here. But we need something more lively – not only on the name. It wasn’t that ‘fest’ at all.
We need to gather, independent of any formal club in UTP, and do something cool.
*tiba-tiba rasa semangat nak tulis benda camni. haha
PreviousThe end of semester
Next Three more to go
“I always have this kind of dream of having some kind of team/group, creative team or something like that”
me too. I have this kind of dream since I was in high school but too bad bcoz most of my friends are not interested.
btw, art:tech also one of my idols. I’m a fan of his photowerk~
same here dude.
i love all his doodles.
yeah art:tech is so cool
::cool2! c u then
::btw aku da roger Din….boleh la kite bertige borak panjang haha
dude.
here like nerds/passive..
ske main bola je.
zero about photoshop/arts.
Oh, poor flisterz.
Hehe..
Saya pun ada minat gak benda2 mcm ni.. Dan ada thoughts macam kamu jugak but then I discover the other part inside of me yang minat medical knowledge dan bio-based sciences.
best2…
ko ada bakat…g la join memana group.
mber aku ada gak ajak establish clothing label sndri…tapi aku reject gak ats sbb yg sama.
“We are too far apart from each other”
bnda ni smua nak kna ada komitmen.
ko dah tgk movie KAMI? dulu ada bca post ko pasal KAMI the series. apa pndpt ko pasal ending dia dlm movie?
*sory myibuk kat blog ko ;p
@nazir: ok cool. ajak la lagi sape2.aweks aweks haha
@haziq: maybe there are. just working on their own perhaps? that’s why kena gather.
@Fath: wah kan best kalau ade semangat mcm tu utk engineering ni. haha
@med: yeah. commitment yg padu. Oh tak tengok lagi movie tu. kesian gile
Eventho MMU ni nmpak cambest tapi bape kerat je yang sama spesis dengan aku.
Event2 malay club kebanyakannya bergantung pada 2-3 org designer je. So design lebih kurang serupa je style dia..
Maybe kat cyberjaya banyak kot.
Hey there friends, thanks for reviewing colourama over at your blog. it But by reading ur post this time seemed that youre quite down with urseelf. Well, u dont have any reason to be like that coz we’re all connected! thanks to the internet! it works!
ouh. I pun ada gak pegi event camni skali-skala. I pegi rantai since 2006. tapi rantai merdeka x pegi, sbb time tu tgh sewel. hahah.
maybe next year, or next two years, or bila i dah graduate, i nak buat exhibition skali ah. hoho.
yeah, i kinda agree with “live their live on what they are passionate for”. That what we should do.
we are in the same boat :l
but atleast i have my own art community here other we doesnt really hangout together.
But still, internet connect us. haha
i do have one site that sell tshirts, but now the progress are damn slow as all of my teammates are on their exams .
