iDIVIDUALLY oUTING

THURSDAY
22nd JAN 09
went over to kepong (part of KL) to take some photos before the holidays start ...
since the chosen water meter are every where ...
and since everyone went to Petaling street , Timesquare , Pavilion and etc ...
i was thinking to go other than the places ...
so i made decision on going to Kepong ...
it is part of kl too ...

okie ...
since we got clearer tutorial and also discussion with the members ...
so ... our ideas had became more solid on water meter ...
and since we can't get different type of water meter ,
but the problem had overcome by we decide to get different narration of characteristic , and emotion which portray the interaction between the surrounding people to water meter ...
and these emotion or so called interaction between it could represent the KL city life ...

so ...
i went outing individually to get some supporting visuals ...
and here's there are i found interesting ...


the shy shy water meter ,
covered by broken cloth ,
found at near by Kepong KTM


the systematic one ...


the dirty one ...


the sharing is caring ...


although water meter is small , but it strong ...
because it could protect others ...


water meter is not cheap ...
because it steal by others ...
losting in KL ...


water meters need food ...


water meter need to bath too ...


and the lonely one ...

hm ... something funny to share here ...
was the day when i capture for the water meter ...
aunties used one kind of eyes looking on me ...
i guess they are curious on why a stupid fellow capturing the water meter every where ...
but then i heard a funny conversation behind ...

aunty A : you see ... the girl capture what there ...
aunty B : aiyo ... u cannot see meh ? she is capture the water meter larhh ...
aunty A : har ? why want to capture the water meter ? siao (gila) arhh ?
aunty B replied : no arh ... she is government workers ... i think the government want to come for change a new water meter for us liao ...
aunty A : oorhh ... yea hor ..

haha ... they thought i am government workers who capture photo to report to change the water meter ...
during that time ... i really feel i wanna laugh like gorilla ...
hohoh ...
thats all for the outing ...

1st oUTING

WEDNESDAY
14th JAN09

was planned to have the 1st outdoor research ,
instead of think in a box , why not go out to explore more ...?
planned to capture photos separately from group members ...
because different people , we see things differently ...
it might special for me , but it doesn't special for you ...

so ... i went to few places to explore the hidden objects that i wanted to find ...
tugu negara , pavilion , the streets near by sg wang and timesquare ...


object : the pahlawan ...
i was wonder who how can they made this so alike with human ?


found object 2 : buttons
it gave me the feels of differen design of button ,
create different lifestyle to the cities ,
besides , it connected to the cloth , to protect our body ...


found object : the pillar
it look like pillar ,
but it look like the cheese also ...


object : the pattern wall
it creates the feel of buziness ,
and also the routine of the cities life ...
cities have their routine which ran everyday life ...


found object : shoelace
it connect from left to right ...
portrayed about races can be always connected together ..
besides , it connected people together ...


found object : plat number
the plat number changed one to another while the car is registered
it represent about the buziness of the cities life ...
never stop of busy life ...


the "no" sign in kl ...
restriction in Kl ...
without anyone of these ,
we cant live in a peaceful life with different races here ...
"NO" is negative but portray a positive message ...


object : i dunno what is this call ...
shud b door sumthing ...
it connected each other ...


the walkway to elevator ...
juz found it interesting with a number there ...


and comes to this ...
no named for this thing ...
connected and stick together gether with each other ...


road sign ...
the most represent kl sign ...


the walkway ...
the stone pattern ...
create the lifestyle .. the journey at kl ...


lampost ...
the lifestyle in kl ...
full with lights ... and shine ...


no named object ...
found it interesting ...


the flowers ...
nt really related to projects ...




and last but not least found this 2man ...
silver and green man standing freeze on the street ...
felt it was kind a pastiche from western country ...

overall ...
what i found from this street is
- the cities ... are full with excitement ...
full with buziness , and you won't know what will happen at the next moment ...
the buziness of the cities life make me feel tension ...

thats all for today's trip ...
