“ A journey, after all, neither begins in the instant we set out, nor ends when we have reached our doorstep once again. It starts much earlier and is really never over because the film of memory continues running on the inside of us long after we have come to a physical standstill. Indeed, there exists something like a contagion of travel, and the disease is essentially incurable.
— Ryszard Kapuściński, Travels with Herodotus

“ To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything and your heart will be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact you must give it to no one, not even an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements. Lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket, safe, dark, motionless, airless, it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. To love is to be vulnerable.

NYC Pecha Kucha meet, 9/14 at 8.30PM

Unfortunately, I will be missing this event but you are lucky to be in NYC on 9/14, I would highly recommend checking it out. If you do go, let me know what you thought.

For those not familiar with Pecha Kucha yet, it is a Japanese phrase for “the sound of conversation.” The concept was birthed by Astrid Klein and Mark Dytham of Klein Dytham Architecture and was created to serve as a forum for designers to meet and exchange their ideas in Tokyo.  The idea is simple and wonderful: 20 X 20.  Each speaker has 20 seconds per slide slide for a total of 20 slides to present their work to the audience. Overtime, Pecha Kucha Nights popped up all over the world.  Pecha Kucha New York aims to be muli-disciplinary covering variety of topics, as you can see below.
