500年前必有渊源


- photo taken in end 2008.

Dec 2008, I walked pass Suzhou Creek in Shanghai, and saw this stencil which stated: "Graphic Design, call 15926386911". Together with other typical stencil 'advertisements' at the back alley. I thought it was quite funny, that there were really someone out there selling design service like this. So I took a picture and uploaded to my flickr few months ago.

Yesterday, someone emailed me and told me that the stencil was actually done by him! That was his real mobile no, and he did that for an art show back then during summer 2008. By a very odd chance he was googling his mobile number and found a link to my flickr.


- the email.

Everything I Do Always Comes Back to Me. You never know what will lead to by some tiny things you did today, maybe life is still full of surprises... And the best thing is, we both share a same surname '卢' . Haha, like he said, maybe we have some affair in our past life ( 看来500年前必有渊源 ). Meet LuRui from Wuhan, China.

no surprises



A heart that's full up like a landfill,
a job that slowly kills you,
bruises that won't heal.
You look so tired-unhappy,
bring down the government,
they don't, they don't speak for us.
I'll take a quiet life,
a handshake of carbon monoxide,

with no alarms and no surprises,
no alarms and no surprises,
no alarms and no surprises,
Silence, silence.

This is my final fit,
my final bellyache

with no alarms and no surprises,
no alarms and no surprises,
no alarms and no surprises please.

Such a pretty house
and such a pretty garden.

No alarms and no surprises (get me outta here),
no alarms and no surprises (get me outta here),
no alarms and no surprises, please.

browsing copy



Last few weeks Roy passed me this book and got me to doodle on it for his 'Browsing Copy' project. The time line is really tight when it comes to me, so in the end I just go with the fastest method: cut, paste and spray. Since the original title is 'A Century of Thai Cinema', my idea was just to make the whole book feels like a movie countdown. Nothing marvelous...

Everything was a bit too rush, but I do enjoy the busyness. I should have think about more short term projects like this, at least I had a slightly more meaningful weekend.

悲伤的采购

订了一季 又到下季
为何人大了就要成为工作的奴隶
最爱作的不可发挥
我的感觉 逐渐流逝
从前曾话过要如何欣赏世界的美丽
现在只懂得放假去消费

如果继续这样
我还是我吗 我还喜欢我吗
或者我应该死去吧
总好过变得更差
如果继续这样
你还愿意吗 和我奏着结他
日子不应该这样吧
而现实就是这样可怕
