A little information about the title - Death of School.
Considering that this is my final year, it is an ode to my 20.5 years that I have spent studying in Singapore.
I will be updating CHUNKS and CHUNKS of things that I have written thus far; on scrappy little pieces of paper, thumbing on my cellphone, rants on Facebook... all onto this blog.

Here's a little titbit of what my FYP's going to be about:
A set of two books, unlike any other book that will divulge the secrets behind the relationships in my life. It sounds juicy, but it's not. It is philosophical, with ideas and concepts coming from the theory of metaphysics such as 'the other and the gaze'...etc...
Ironically, I'm not studying sociology. I'm an art student with a major in visual communications. And this book WILL speak to all (but I think most would just want to touch it). I feel that there is a symbiotic relationship between structure and content, hence the ultimate visual goal is for me to craft an artist book, where its content emanates like a ray of light from the sturdy construction and structure of the book.
Content wise, I'm looking into the connections of relationships between myself and the people whom I know. Reminding myself that no human being is capable of surviving alone, where connections are vital to keep ourselves living the sanest way as possible. Remembering the past, living in the present, and pondering about the future will probably be part of my book. These information will be presented through the art of systems, where I will tear apart and analyze my relationships and place meaning and value into it. Thus creating a masterpiece full of sociological studies, using myself as the studied object, and the people around me as the environment that I am living in.
