Virtual Ping Pong

20111031001

The main reason why I don’t play Ping Pong is that I can barely touch the ball with my bat. But I’ve decided to have another try with the Virtual Ping Pong, as it features no Ping Pang table or ball at all, but instead requires the users to swing the bat in air according to the sound played by a recorder. In other words, the Virtual Ping Pong is kind of a game that you need to use your imagination to play. So are you ready? Let’s start now.

Convenient Holder by Giha Woo

20111028005

Highly organized… As somebody who wants everything kept in a good order and also to have them convenient for reaching, I really love Giha Woo’s concept of the “Snick”. It comes with a shape cut by a knife, but actually allows the users to place their things in either the inside or the outside. Hence both your long items and short accessories are just at hand, simple enough to get and use.

Babushka Paper Portrait

20111029021

Is there anything cannot be accomplished with paper? As the development of paper art is quickly pushed forward, it’s more difficult to figure out what the paper material cannot do. Shown here is Yulia Brodskaya’s latest work “Babushka”. It may seem quite simple on screen, but in fact each detail is subtly finished with various shapes and colors of paper. To make the portrait is difficult, but what is harder is to create the artwork. Congratulations, Yulia Brodskaya, you’ve gotten an imaginative creativity.

Transparent Church

20111026001

Church usually means something grave and quite to me, and I seldom imagined that a church could also be “floating”, with all its components seeming to float in the air. The church is 10 meters high and made of 100 layers and 2000 columns of steel, which create four see-through walls and thus bring the church with a romantic name of “Reading between the Lines”. When viewing in the landscape, the church seems to dissolve in the air. If you look at the landscape from within the church, well, all the surrounding scenery is redefined by abstract lines.
