Yeah, one of my most love-hate things. Sorrting out the p-10 accounts and balancing monies.
Such a drag -- at first. Then at the middle of it, it feels so rewarding because you get things in place. Now, I think it looks quite organised!

Dance @ The Hub
Chanced upon this little get-together.
Interesting spectacle. I am not sure what this is but there were about 50 people dancing to 'pop' music but dancing like Line dancing style.
People would watch and then some might join in or laugh along at the sight.
Also this was a diverse age group!(young and middle-age group)
I really liked how the group of people interpreted Ng Eng Teng's public sculpture. The base of the sculpture became a mini-platform to hold bags and offer a space to sit on. This is very inventive way of using the art.

The cultural medallion winners...
(image: Record shop in Perth)
So just a little update on the current show at p-10. We are going to have the talk on the 26th Nov where Seok Tin will share with us thoughts on her work.
It should be in Mandarin and English. Maybe if time allows, we can have a real-time translation set-up.
Maybe if more time allows, webcasting... maybe.

3 pics from Valentine Willie Fine Art Gallery
* Found a book by REdza and Saba | interesting stuff, wanna find it here.
* Met Chang Hwang and Nansi @ this Lee Foundation building which is Popular bookshop!
* Well, Hoy Chong told us about Valentine Willie's resource room - we thought we want to check it out. A humble one compared to AAA - but really a good start. We met Daniel who is in charge of it and he was very kind of give us some catalogues and books which they published. (hey people, make an appointment to drop by to check this collection out.)
Well, Jen and me went to KL last week to do some additional research on some of the "happenings" which the RAP members brought up.
We went to the Isolation House installation @ RAP by Chin Chow, Balai, Notthatbalai and Valentine Willie Fine Art.
Unfortunately, I forgot to bring my battery for my camera so only could use my mobile phone cam. Here are the pics from the trip.

A Historic moment
So - as i thought it would be another day after the opening of Theatreworks new place on the previous night.
Some quite nice events happened.
Chee Kian came by p-10 to have a look at the documentation of Koeh Sia Yong's talk.
He said that he was glad to have seen it as it was a historic moment. Then it hit me... hey! He's right - (always happen to overlook things since I get too hands on with projects that it kind of hit you after).
Anyhow - right. This was probably the ending which I was looking for - the difference between history, historicisation and chancing on the historic moment. I highlighted some of the concepts/points behind the Errata exhibition in the curatorial essay.
That historic moment, Koeh Sia Yong's talk - was a meeting point for a lot of the things which I was writing. In short, it was the meeting point for the "director", the "history book", the "artist", the "painting, the "researcher"... and somehow at the end of that - made it all worth while.

Errata _ Publication and workshop
Well, was busy with the Errata publication and scanning images + printing the picture cards for the secondary school workshop tomorrow.
That should be fun and worth reporting.
Anyhow, that was the few things which we were busy with over this few days.

Did bumped into Guoliang and Donna @ the coffeeshop.

Almost sold a copy of FOCAS 5.

Getting close to Tang Dawu
This pic from the RAP visit | COnversations: Malaysia - photo by Jennifer Teo.
We were visiting SAM and went to the resource room with Dawu's work and documentation photo (from Koh... who else has them?)
Oh yes - was surprised that many of the RAP members know quite a bit about Dawu's work.
Then, I realised that not even SAM doesn't have much information and works by Dawu.
Another project waiting to be realised... to see the whole body of Dawu's work will be another goal in the near future.
I ZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzsleep!. Gd nite.

A Saturday - very busy one.
Finally finished a whole lot of things... they were all chained-events!
First it was the Errata Exhibition then it was the Malaysian artist residencies and the Septfest forum.
Saturday was the Septfest forum: It was a bit disappointing - we did get started but the most important part was not realised. "The Discussion!"
Then we visited NAFA show, Textrapolis and then the talk. Chai Hiang's work was the best piece in the show. I liked the Vertical Submarine piece too. It is more successful than the piece in Tickleart. The talk was a bit weird - wished I attended the whole thing somehow.
Anyhow, then we went to Dawu's show in Miu Studio. I like the works on the show, there were some performances by some students but got stopped by the Takashimaya Security guards.
Then sent the Saubin to the train station - only to miss the train again. (for the second time!) It was funny.
Overall, it was a weird saturday - I felt lost ... metaphorically between the Septfest Forum and Dawu's exhibition.
Oh, recently went to see the andriod show in Sculpture square. A big disappointment. A lot of the pieces were not working. I know this is media art thing ... but really, even the augmented reality pieces were quite lame and not working! Wonder why I bother to say this anyway.

RAP in town | Very Special Arts | Lina Adam
WEll, great to have met with the RAP members finally.
The talk by them on Tuesday has seen a relatively luke warm turn up. (31 attended)
Like we said earlier on, it is much like a first step and that we can through the residency find the time and space to "interact and exchange" with each other.
As part of the programme, Jennifer and Kit has been taking them on a whirl wind tour of Singapore art sites.
More updates on this I suppose. Another thing, this week alone, there are 3 openings which I know of. (Very Special Arts, Print making Society and Lina Adam's solo show)
Alright - I guess that's all for now. We got more images which we can share about the residency.

Nothing wrong here
Hey, just a word out - we have been over-working for the exhibition @ Singapore History Museum. Won't complain too much on that now.
The stuff to do has been crazy! But Jen sent out an e-mail asking for volunteers and the response has been fantastic.
We feel really encouraged by the response to volunteer on the Errata project. It is a lot of tedious work on the project and we are so thankful that the volunteers are really giving their time and efforts for the project. THanks a million you all!
Now that we are at "crunch" time and installing the work... I am keeping my fingers crossed and going through the collection to see what might be missed out.

Malaysian invasion?!
Finally, the Malaysian artists are coming to p-10!
We've been trying to work out something with them for the longest time... so we're really glad the residency is finally happening (thanks to ANA).
The 3 'artists' who are coming are Chai Chang Hwang, Phuan Thai Meng and the artists of RAP. They are all based in KL and have been very active in getting the scene going there. So, we're sure their residency time here would be interesting and eye-opening for us all as they share more about their world there while learning more about ours.
The dates are (more or less) set for mid-Aug to mid-Sep and we are sorting out the details. We are aiming to announce the 'full' programme at the end of this month. So, listen out for it!
Also, we're looking for more partners/sponsors for this as well as a nice place to house them. So, if you would like to get involved in this, do let us know.
Thanks and blog again soon. - Jen

Yeah, baby - documentation and documentations time and Amanda too!
Um... Let's see // Been out of blogging for a while.
It has been a busy month or so, mostly my work with tsunamii.net's new project, Virtual Marathon. (Just did a project Presentation in Perth at Curtin) Some good discussion there... Maybe if there is time, I will fill it up in my own blog. (started that recently...) click here to go
Then was getting the p-10 forum off the floor!! So maybe there will be a chance for some "pre-discussion" before the forum discussion @ Exchange 05.
Eh, somebody from Bulgaria was looking at the p-10 site! Then there was a chain of browsing the p-10 site from our malaysian friends... (wonder if it could be Ruma Air Panas!) Can't wait till our Malaysian colleagues come over to do some work here. I am quite excited about that -- since it is something which is long overdue. Thanks to ANA.
Maybe this could be an informal call to friends and colleagues who are interested in working with the Malaysian art exchange project... could come forth to do some discussions.
enuff, said, before i am accused of hogging the blog.

Just the other day...
Been a busy week, we are preparing with WITA for a "talk series" - called "The Exchange"! Designing the poster.
Lots of reading and finishing the curatorial essay for the ERRATA project.
Did we mentioned the p-10 computer is KAPUT >> Virus-infected. I rescued the data, but still have no time to get it up and going. (HELP anyone?)
I became a skyper - believer ever since the zero-gravity project where we used it.
Then this article came out!
"Here's how they plan to cripple the Vonages and Skype's, according to friends of mine who have spent 20+ years in engineering positions at telephone companies, cable companies and internet service providers. As the phone and cable companies begin offering their own VoIP services in real volume, they plan to "tag" their own VoIP packets so that at least within their own networks, their VoIP service will have COS (Class of Service) assignments with their routers, switches, etc. They also plan on implementing distinct Virtual Local Area Networks (VLANs) for the tagged packets.
Tagged packets get both less restrictive rules for passage and a private highway lane to drive on." for full article click this link

p-10 UPDATEs:
p-FISH - it seems that our fishes have given birth to baby fishes. Visible ones are: 1 small fish and 3 tiny fishes (hiding in the log).
!! Congrats to Charles and Lin on their wedding !! Finaalllyy!
Other interesting stuff:
Saw this cool robot, which controlled by Bluetooth - and kind of cute too!

Crazy blast
On another note, today was a blast, talk by Lim Yew Kuan (founder committee), Koeh Sia Yong (last president of Equator Art Society) and Ho Ho Yeen (Modern Art society founding member). THen there was a talk by Han San Yuan on War memories.
Amazing blast from the past: but new things were uncovered. Suddenly, we are not so much of "cultural orphans" ... more like culturally displaced.

GraffiTML
Keyboards often eclipse pens as the writing tool of necessity. As computers continue to gain precedence in our lives, we fill a graveyard with lost penmanships and John Hancocks of decreasing legibility. John Geraci combines the personal imprint of handwriting with the connective possibilities of the Internet in his newly released project 'Grafedia,' developed at NYU's Interactive Telecommunications Program. Elaborating on themes explored in neighbornode--a wireless, localized bulletin network Geraci built in 2004--Grafedia turns the city of New York into a potential webpage. An author can write, draw, even tattoo, a hyperlink onto a public space in the form: my_original_thought@grafedia.net. The author also uploads media corresponding to or enhancing to the location, like an original photograph, to the Grafedia site. Passers who encounter a link can 'click' it by sending a text message to my_original_thought@grafedia.net. In turn, Grafedia beams the author's hidden media back to the inquiring wireless device. Since Grafedia's annotative marks are not anonymous but in fact scrawled by the hands of their authors, viewers are able to follow particular people and stories. And the cherry on top my original photograph? It's a lot fun. - Alyssa Wright

Notes and note.
Just arrived in Perth. Will be away for 1 week. (some work needs to be finished here. ) Meanwhile, p-10ers are working on the docu.center and planning for the year ahead.
Recently met up with the Parasite (artist run space in HK) people.. & had a talk last week by Lise from Spawasser HQ (Berlin) about the space there.
Well, all for now. Hope to find some time to blog a little these few days.

donations needed
was just trying to find out exactly how much more money is needed.
the UN website says they've already raised the estimated budget of US$256M they need. in fact, they got a total of US$3B or more.
so, there's no longer any need to donate money for tsunami relief.
but if you really feel like you have to donate some money to save the world, do have a look around.
the World Food Programme (WFP), for one, is still in need of funding. they seem to be short of funds for many of their operations (not tsunami relief - that's already covered under the donations to UN). so lots of people are still going hungry. also WFP claims to be the UN agency with the lowest overheads and about 90% of donations go directly to the people who need it. for more info, see http://www.wfp.org.

6 January // Handy work // can't help it, we wanna do something for the tsunami victims.
Hot day - but quiet enuff to get some real work done.
1st, went down to a sponsor's place to drop off a request for payment. :)
2nd, met dennis to get the circular saw, to get some handy-man job done... I hope... - Dennis was going to do some maintenance work on his work (the shop space conversion at the back, Space B)
3rd, Visited the temples around p-10, only managed 2, more another day.
4th, Lee wen was suggesting and proposing that we work with an artists initiative in Japan... (did some reflecting)
5th, worked a bit in the Space A ( gallery) - kind of now becoming a space to toy with some ideas - and documentation sorting space for p-10.
6th, sent e-mails, sms-notification about Heeman's talk this Saturday.
7th, made a temporary image gallery for seok tin's friend who will be writing about seok's work // resize the images...
8th, skipped the opening @ ICA (the ol' Earl Lu Gallery)
9th, photographed and document the going-ons in the Space A (The gallery)
* killed 2 mosquitoes... and thought about buying a rat trap. More on this in the later entries!

Spring Cleaning @ p-10
A day of spring cleaning @ p-10, now visitors, please take off your shoes! (again)
Let me explain, for the "And we took ourselves out of our hands (In search of the Miraculous)" show - curator, Guo Liang wanted visitors to wear their shoes in. While, we usually like our visitors to take them off, we respect curator's demands. :)
Taking the shoes off - meant many things to me.
1) Easy to keep p-10 clean.
2) We wanted the visitor to feel that they are entering into another space... consiously.
If there is no marking between the outside and inside, it would not make much sense. Thus, it was important to make this distinction.
More cleaning tomorrow. There will be some 'going-ons' in the exhibiting space, after the meeting the other day, we are using the space to sort out the p-10's past activities. We will process the stuff and work in that space. In a way, using this time and space to plan for our future activities. At this moment, our next exhibition will be held in June 2005 onwards.
What other activities?: There will still be talks.
I am consolidating clothes and stuff: If somebody wants it, take it - if not, the rest goes to the Salvation army. (although, most people are donating to the tsunami disaster, it is a bit too late now since they want cash not clothes.) So far, it's a bunch of old clothes, telephone, computer, etc. You may drop by to see this and if you think they are useful, please take it. If you have old stuff to consolidate, share or give to Salvation Army, you can do so. (but I can only take things which fit in my car.) ------===------ Guess that's all.
