Chinese Ink painting

Chinese ink painting is a famous art in China. I have tried to paint some before, but it's not as easy as it seemed. I think we need a special technique to paint with Chinese ink, and we can't use an ordinary paper. The paper must be rice paper because some said if we use an ordinary paper the ink will spread.

Fingerprint Building

I saw this picture in my friend's phone, and did some research about this building. It was called Fingerprint building, and the location of this building will be in Thailand. It disappoint me when i saw that this picture is only a digital drawing, it's not real. But, even though this is only a digital drawing, the idea of using a fingerprint as an architecture of a building is unpredictable.

Summary of Steven Johnson video

In this video, Steven Johnson is talking about the picture of grand cafe he took at the distance of 10 blocks. It is the first coffeehouse that open in England in 1650. He said that the English coffeehouse was crucial to the development and spread of one of the great intellectual flowerings of the last 500 years, which is now called the Enlightenment. Coffeehouse played such a big role in the birth of the Enlightenment, because before the spread of coffee and tea through British culture, what people drank was alcohol. In the 1650 era, alcohol was the daytime beverage of choice. There is another thing that makes the coffeehouse important, it is the architecture of the space. It was a space where people would get together from different backgrounds, different fields of expertise, and share. After that he talked about the guy named Timothy Prestero who owned an organization called Design That Matters. He also talked about a researcher named Kevin Dunbar. Then he talked about the history of GPS.
