24 rooms in 350 square feet?
Is it possible to turn a 350 square feet efficiency into a luxury condominium with 24 rooms configurations?
Buying a brand new flat would’ve been a cheaper solution, but this very same apartment turned condo holds sentimental value to Honk Kong based architect, Gary Chang. And Chang also stated ”I see my place as an ongoing experiment”. As seen in the gallery, the flat screen...
The problem of consciousness
The problem of consciousness is understanding how this world is there for us. It shows up in our senses. It shows up in our thoughts. Our feelings and interests and concerns are directed to and embrace this world around us. We think, we feel, the world shows up for us. That’s the problem of consciousness. That is a real problem that needs to be studied, and it’s a special...
Merry Funken Xmas!
Finally I got some sleep. I went to bed in a good state of mind with a light headache, a relieved heart and head.
F U Ian….L U Ar
And I also got to wake up early to my nephews and niece jumping in bed. Most people would be furious but for me it made my morning. After a hell of a week/weekend seeing these little bundle of joy all excited by xmas is heart warming.
It might actually be a...

IGLOOFEST 2010
The antidote for this year’s winter chills is in its 4th phase of development, and bitting temperature wont stop the throngs of winter lovers descending on Montreal. Igloofest is launching a massive musical vaccination campaign for the last 3 weeks of January to help you ”ice-scape” the pandemic.
Do not forget to come experience Igloofest’s zany...

Forêt des mals aimées
Il ne reste plus rien, plus rien que quelques souvenirs du plus épinel de ma vie, du cercle éternel qui vieillit ici toujours comme au passé, il revient pour me terasser j’irai pieds nus marcher dans la forêt des mals aimées.
Adieu ivresse, adieu éouvance. Adieu rescapé de la chance. Je couperai ma barbe à coups de barbelé.
Mon coeur est piraté...
Béatrice Martin, 18 year old young singer and pianist launched her first eponymous project known as Coeur de Pirate. She has been invading Montreal’s scene with some few concerts sharing the scene with Renaud Bastien from Malajube and Julie Brunet. She is seen as the new Pierre Lapointe but listening to her music I feel its a false comparison to be making.
On stage she has a coolness...

Delicious!
Francoise Nielly lives in a world of images. She has explored the different facets of “image” all her life , through painting, photography, roughs, illustrations and virtual, computer generated animated graphics. It is clear now that painting is her direction and her passion. She gets her sense of space and construction from her father, who was an architect.

Chaque soir!
Chaque soir tu me fais danser, je te jure tu me fais danser. Tu m’as oublié! Tu me vois étrange. Un jour on ce réveille plus jamais pareille!
Plus jamais pareille
Qu’on ce dévisage
Ce soir il faudrait danser et oublier ce monde insensé. Je ne t’ai jamais oublié. C’est juste que ça me hante que je sois devenu étrangé. Mon bateau est entrain de couler et y a juste toi...

On record, Tonstartssbandht are a fog horn, a bee hive and plenty of reverb. Live, they’re a kick in the head and a wicked hangover.

RIP...Beat Me Up Thursdays

After 3 years at Saphir every Thursday, Mary has made the decision that it is time to move on and to move up, and start on a BRAND NEW PROJECT that has all sorts of...
