Selection of life fragments
Spring has been one busy season so far.
To me, spring is is the season in which Hong Kong begins to show its truest colours. Epic rain and thunder start to become a regular fixture, it’s still cool enough to hike and take in the scenery. Boat trips and BBQs start again, humidity levels creep up. And lots more rain.
Living for the weekend (or for the many public holidays) is practically a religion. But that’s a trait that seems to pervade all seasons here…
My dad always says that you don’t truly know a place until you’ve seen it in all four seasons. I’ve now experienced 3 out of 4, and each has been unique - let’s see what summer has to offer!
The very ‘special’ and expensive flat in Hong Kong made by Cheung Kong (Holdings) Limited. This flat sold with the top roof but the owner is unable to use it for personal purpose (like BBQ) since the owner will not allowed to build railings due to legal reason, of course, if you want to commit suicide, you can use it…
The pictures also show the small door of kitchen and you can see an unknown space for kind of storage purpose?
Most exciting part is when you open the window of the kitchen, you will see the public corridor outside the flat…
The cost? Thirty million for this “luxury” flat.

Clouds of knotted sound by Ronald van der Meijs
A sculpture of sound
Materials: 2 Technics DJ turntables, brass, bronze, two bowls, water, rubber
Dimensions: 95 x 102 x 35 cmThe installation consists out of two different sound bowls which produce there sound in an analogous manner. The two different tones are dueling with each other around the installation. This results in various sound fields with so called ‘sound knots’ in the room. This creates a sculpture of various sound fields where you can walk through. The bowls are filled with water to give a more clean tone. Because the bowls are loose on a rubber ring, they acquired additional weight by the water for more stability. The tone of the bowls caused wave patterns in the water that corresponds to the nodes in space.
