some thoughts about my POS

yesterday's meeting with the pop ed class people was really refreshing. talked about alot of stuff and i've ideas swimming round my head now.

some conversations i had with denise brought me back to thinking about my interests in love and compassion and what to make of life.

niko and i had a common interest in interactive work with the public. his ideas came from the diggers - giving things out for free and instigate some kinda revolution. my ideas came from art practices i remembered reading and wanting to do them in my 3rd yr undergrad. n we talk about the possibility of working on our final projects together on something like this.

so now comes the question: what am i going to do for my final project. and how am i going to change my POS? (deadline next tuesday. am going to meet honor to talk about it.)

some of my thoughts:
- trying to change my POS to something more meleable. maybe my final project will not be about singapore. but a reflection? a reflection plus a project work.
- the idea of spirituality? can i put spirituality into art, into thinking about politics, into education, into changing the society?
- i think maybe i can leave my POS the way it is. the final project will just be a different thing. a reflection.

i think sometimes this studying of singapore is a little bit forced on myself. because i've found that it is really restrictive and it kinda stopped me from being creative. perhaps i need to add in some art or practical component. perhaps i should just follow what i really want to study. - love and compassion in spirituality and art - interactive, conceptual art. art that can be also not art. depending on how u see it. but which is interactive and hopefully beneficial to the people who come across it. possibly like what the diggers would do..

in terms of singapore, how would that connect?
what i've learned about singapore.
- globalization in sg.
- activism.. somewhat.
- art and theatre. and the dessent coming from these practitioners.
- civil society
- how community-based art is used n worked in sg (just a little0

how can this be connected to spirituality and art?
art and doing things.. hmmm..
thinking of it. alot of artists are activists.. kind of.

i dunno man. gotta let it sink abit.
