"Nevertheless, for us to be able to continue motoring on down this road, we must not only repair our vehicle this time; we also have to change our driving style and revise our destination." - Ars Electronica 2010
I like the concept of Ars Electronica 2010 - Repair. I'd like to take it in life, as in the way of
In order to extricate myself from the profound crises of my life, I need models of the future that also encompass the readiness and the ability to make repairs, and not just when it’s already too late.
Isn t it the effect how Art change and influence life unobtrusively and imperceptibly, as an encouragement, like few things happened in life recently.

On the 18th Oct, in office. A thought bumped in head that I suddenly wanted to listen Giong's cd, that took one simultaneously from my drawer. By the time I'd like to play it publicly to share with my colleagues. One of them said: Hey renfeng, guess what? Limgion was nominated by the prize of the best movie background music of Taipei Golden Horse Film Festival last night - such a good news and nice encounter.
I texted him a congratulations. We knew eachother since 2007 when we were working on Creative Commons together, when I fortunatedly was able to take a break from dealing with boring Internet topic in NIIEPA - IPv6, Internet Governance, ICANN, ALS Taiwan, iSecurity...
It was funny that my colleague at that time even found a short description about me and me boss from ICANN Wiki... had no idea who upload it at all...
The Creative Commons times was a good time. We set up ccGarden together, and had a few great parties.

Mom didn t feel well during my trip in London. While I was back, she'd been already better but sill not totally well. I, therefore, asked a friend's advise of a good Chinese Herbal doctor, and made my mom to see him. But, as usual, she didn t.
On the same day that I just got good news about Lim, mom made me a phone call, so I took a chance to ask her health condition. She hung up my phone impatiently, which I could understand that she just doesn t want my too worried. I explained her that it is normal for my worry as being her daughter and asked her permission. Hence, she phoned me again said she knows my stance and she is happy that I care about her.
Right after she hung up my phone at the second time, my iPohne played " The Beatles - Love Me Do " automatically... without my permission... weird but... doesn t matter :)
To those old good times and the coming ones - as the engergy drive us repair, keep on going.
