"Sounds like we've been together for a very loooong time! I too see this as a new chapter, a very welcomed one. Well, this gallery would be another reason for you to stop by Singapore ;)" - Kevin Lim

"Aaron, thanks for the insight. Before we go deeper, I wish to explain that this is a conceptual idea meant to demonstrate my thought process. Nothing is set in stone. OK, now that that's out of the way, let's continue... As you probably know, QR codes aren't new at all, and it's not surprising that not everyone is aware, or let alone uses it. Because of this, we'll have to study how such tags would be adopted in the Singapore setting. Part of the goal of this gallery would be to keep traditional users, while finding new ones, who (for now until proper studies are conducted) could be young, mobile, and tech savvy. Visitors differ in levels of sophistication as well as expectations, and part of my job would be to engage each segment. From time to time I'll put out ideas which could be relevant for the library industry as well. Keep your thoughts coming :)" - Kevin Lim

"I hear you. A lot of friends aren't museum goers, and even I don't go on a regular basis. Being from outside the industry, I have my hunches, will have to conduct research, and hopefully determine best approaches to build relevance / motivation. Oh yeah, we can definitely catch up in the flesh now!" - Kevin Lim

Malaysia Design Archive is a project to map the development of graphic design in Malaysia from the period before independence (1957) until now. It is a space to trace and document Malaysian ‘endangered’ design legacy, to preserve our historical past, as well as to create a resource of Malaysian design work. This is also another way to protect our history, provide us with space to question its meaning, recurring imagery, icons used, ideas, and how it is connected to the our political landscape at the time. This project aims to highlight the importance of archiving as a way protect and preserve our own visual history. What is our design history? Do we have one? - Kevin Lim

Omnipresence 3D Security System - http://www.gizmag.com/video-s...
While it’s not quite to the level of the Esper Machine in Blade Runner, the integration of the ImmerVision 360 degree Panamorph lens into Feeling Software’s Omnipresence 3D Security System is as close as we’ve seen. Designed to serve as a visual platform for complex, critical security systems such as airports, nuclear facilities, and universities the marriage of the two technologies eliminates blind spots to provide a system that can apparently see it all. - Kevin Lim

Transmedia Activism: Politics, Avatar and Harry Potter - http://www.jawbone.tv/feature...
Whether it's the Trollope Society or the Aqua Teen Hunger Force fan club, fandoms often become forums in which participants move beyond their shared love of a particular piece of content to start discussing real world issues. However, it's only relatively recently that people have started using them for concerted political action. - Kevin Lim

At Indiana U., a Class on Game Design Has Students Playing to Win - Wired Campus - The Chronicle of Higher Education - http://chronicle.com/blogPos...
Class time is spent completing quests (such as presentations of games or research), fighting monsters (taking tests or quizzes), and "crafting" (writing game-analysis papers and a video-game concept document). The 40-person class is divided into six "zones," named after influential game designers, in which students complete group tasks. Mr. Sheldon says last semester's students performed a full letter grade better in the course than students had under the traditional approach -- the class average was a B instead of a C. - Kevin Lim

The acquisition of @ takes one more step. It relies on the assumption that physical possession of an object as a requirement for an acquisition is no longer necessary, and therefore it sets curators free to tag the world and acknowledge things that “cannot be had”—because they are too big (buildings, Boeing 747’s, satellites), or because they are in the air and belong to everybody and to no one, like the @—as art objects befitting MoMA’s collection. - Kevin Lim
