HK based artists network -which found by co-founders in Rotten Tomatoes which has been sold by million dollars in 2004, a popular film reviews site in UK

interesting art project introduced by SXSW¬
cited form the site "The idea for this site originally came out of my own list in my diary, under the very same title: Things I have learned in my life so far. Astonishingly, I have only learned twenty or so things so far. Over the last five years I did manage to publish these maxims all over the world, in spaces normally occupied by advertisements and promotions: as billboards, projections, light-boxes, magazine spreads, annual report covers, fashion brochures, and, recently, as giant inflatable monkeys.

So here I extend this same question to you:

What have you learned in your life so far? What is it that you are fairly sure about? What is it that you believe in by now?
Please do write it down beautifully. Design it digitally, photograph it, draw it, scan it and upload it. Use any media that works for you, paint, sculpture, film…."

Interesting interview day ended up with enjoy percious famous chinese painting

Today, it supposed to be a job interview day...(Yap, I m looking for a job to make some money that I can make my India trip¬)

The opening is looking for a secretary, not what I expect and I don't have any experience of being a assistant, moreover,the working venue is in a *red light area* city, but the payment is quite good and the company doing something seems quite stable and prospectively well, therefore, I still decided to go for it.

The smart boss just glanced on my CV and talked to me for a few sentences, then I think he noticed that I am not a good secretary, hah... but he seems quite interested in my experience of art...then we begun to talk about art almost for the whole afternoon¬ hah¬¬
I impressed of collection and the standard of his collection! He got more than 200 paintings from the top Chinese painting authorities¬ coolio!!!
and he showed me around 10 favorites of collection, eg: Yong Lin, Wanghuang Sheng, Ziwu Wang etc.

Super cool, he's collection are super amazing, what he collect is not only just paintings from great artist, but also great works of the artist(u know, some time, the great artist not always can make great works, however, he just collects great works)

Such a cool day. saw quite a lot of awesome works which cannot easily to see in public!
