Congratulations on becoming rich!

In which I teach you 3 Chinese New Year greetings. Also, this was unscripted (mostly). I also can’t do one-take videos…

Software update

This video is brought to you in Japanese, Chinese, Cantonese and English. Also, my fish died… at the fins of the jumper fish.

Colossal computer coding

Jumping fish, lazing cat, right-handed piano keyboard playing and more than 2000 lines of source code written.

You can try to guess what’s the music piece I’m practising on. I’m almost ready… and I’ll have a recording up then.

BarcampSG7

I attended the 7th Barcamp event in Singapore. Went for the talks on ebooks, personal growth, ADHD and getting the help of your users.

Teresa Deak, PicsieChick

In the September 2011 issue of my magazine, I had an interview with Teresa Deak, a photographer who likes to take macro shots. I also have some photos of my visit to the Asian Civilisations Museum that’s exclusive to the magazine. So go download it now.

The demo mentioned in the video is 74293945 by T-Rex.

Terracotta Warriors

I went to the Asian Civilisation Museum to see the Terracotta Warriors exhibit. You also get to see the Singapore Merlion.

Rain, then after (short film)

It rained suddenly just when I wanted to capture some outdoor footage. I might as well make use of the wet weather…

Also, I dug up my 10 (?) year old keyboard!

University degrees and debt

Make the time and money you spend while studying in university count. The value of a degree doesn’t fluctuate much, year to year. But if you take just one year longer to obtain that degree, it means you’ve wasted one year of your life and another few thousands of dollars in tuition fees. Which means it takes that much longer for you to repay the tuition fee loan (if you took out one).

How to order tea or coffee in Singapore

In which you learn some Malay/Indonesian/Hokkien/Chinese words. This is when you’re ordering tea or coffee from a local coffee shop or drinks stall in Singapore. Not Starbucks.

What’s the longest beverage customisation you’ve ever ordered?

Dave interview, optical illusions and Gestalt theory

In the August 2011 issue of Singularity, I interviewed Dave Doolin from Website In A Weekend. Also, I show you a couple of optical illusions (you can see more in the magazine). Which brings me to the Gestalt theory, where you see shapes when none was supposed to be there.

Also, my cat makes a special guest appearance.
