The Imitation Game

I was quickly surfing for the storyline and the movie trailer, when I get heard about all of us is going to watching ‘The Imitation Game’. Well, I’m an ICT base student from secondary school, so I’m not quite surprise when I saw then name of “Alan Turing”. I do have a little knowledge about him and I’m not to say about how brilliant he creates such prefect machine named “Christopher”.

This movie really emotional, it gets me a lot, it really covers lots of issues, and the feeling was upside down like gets a ride of roller coaster. School violence and homosexual was the main part that was really reminds me allots.

I have the guts that confirmed every school do happened school violence case. When I heard a really depressing quote said by Alan, Do you know why people like violence? It is because it feels good. Humans find violence deeply satisfying. But remove the satisfaction, and the act becomes... hollow.

It reminds vividly me when I was 13, a teenage who believed when you get stronger, not bodies dare to bully you. This thinking was kind  naïve and straightforward, I’m not going to share who I bully or bully by someone else .This was happened , the class of boys always get to bully a poor guy a lots, apply gum on his chair, throwing his bag into dustbin and others, well I’m the one who assisted those hateful boys. When he gets suffering, we all gets laugh, maybe of the satisfaction but will feel very depress after that. As long this was happened few years, I was feel very sorry to that guy that I’m not helping him , I wish I can truly ask for apology to that guy, I’m not asking for a forgiveness , I just hope I can put down the heavy loads in my deepest heart .

Homosexual is quite sensitive been load out in Malaysia; luckily I was born in a family which really opens minded. I do have some homo friends, mostly of them are in the closet .Surprisely, I have met a pair of awesome homo couple, they shared their story, to me they are not just couple; they are like family to each other’s, like us. Mostly people are not acceptable homosexual, they said is a trend! Disgusting! A disease, need to be treat! For the deepest questioning, who want to be discriminate? I confirm nobody will, and I believe homo, they are born this ways just like us like heterosexual.

Imagine you forced a homo to become straight, he or she will gets married, but never happy. The Law of attraction is only applying on your own self, not the others. The conclusion, they might divorce soon ,suffer on their marriage or one of their life partners would not get any satisfaction of their life, marriage or sex.

I always remind myself, we all inspired each other’s, and there are no such things as perfection. I don’t really care who is homo either straight, as long they did not harm, they are always good person to me, like Alan Turing or Apple CEO Tim Cook, who really have a lots of contributions to the society, they are need to respect more than discriminate.



ART vs. Design: Are They The Same Thing?


I’m study Interior Architecture in UCSI, but my assignment majority more to Art field. Many people keep questioning me, art and design, are they the same thing? For me, no there are not, both of them have their own defining characteristics.  Art mostly have emotional context, it sometimes spark question, varied meaning, is an individual sport, has meaning and seldom usable. But design is more different to art, it solve problem, provide information, functional, can be taught and learned and purposely created for a client.

When art apply on architecture, I name itartistic design.” Well, La Sagrada Familia in Spain is the best building to describe as artistic design. I have done a compare between La Sagrada Familia and Falling Water, both of them are the best design to me, but different characteristic and definition. I always admired things that really do not feel existed. I always think La Sagrada Familia is better than Falling Water, why? Because if you look at the detail,  you might feel the creative and the patient of the architecture itself , the organic windows , pillars ,ceiling, it really takes a lots of time , that’s why it still haven’t  finish yet. Falling water is very chic, postmodern, is really base on the technique, how you apply the building without destroy the environment. Frank Lloyd Wright do have the skill that I must say, I think mostly people can come out this idea more.


When my lecturer ask us in class, how would you think art apply on architecture, do you like it? Mostly I heard the answer is no, is a waste. For me, it depends on the situation, not every building suitable, sometimes we should embrace more. Disneyland is a very dreamy place, mostly their building more to artistic design, imagine when Disneyland build with postmodern, Mickey and Minnie doesn’t come out from the castle anymore, but from a very chic building, what will pop out from your mind? Okay, I said mine, What the……Where’s my childhood, bring back my childhood!!


Let’s jump out of the box, apply design and art into fashion segment. If you really a fashion lover, you do know about Christian Dior” ,there’s  an ex designer name John Galliano, the current designer name Raf Simons, each designer  have their own design characteristic. If you compare both designer collections, you found out John’s collection more to artistic, dramatic more but Raf’s collection more to postmodern and chic. The fans of Christian Dior said Dior was totally losing a brilliant designer like John is the biggest mistake, but why Dior still hires Raf? It makes sense, because Raf benefits to the company more, postmodern and simple design really been acceptable more by society, but John’s collection more to display and exhibition.

For me, there’s no best design in the planet, because design is very subjective and wide. If your design caught attraction from others peoples, maybe is he or she was their cups of tea, while somebody don’t. Be grateful to your design and proud of it, one day somebody will embraced more to your design and bright your career.
