Same time yesterday

… I was at Capsquare with Azry to check out on the exhibitions for KL Design Week. We arrived in the middle of after office traffic rush, finding parking was a breeze. It was still early so we walked about and went to see Shafina, whose temporary office (she claims so) is currently at Capsquare since she is in the midst of organizing the KL Flickr booth for KL Design Week

They have this idea of ‘geotagging’ the photos to the map of Klang Valley (with the name of the places in Frutiger font as used in Flickr logo) based on where the photographers originate from, which I think is really neat. The whole sort of analogue imitating digital thing. Think of Johanna’s analogue Twitter project.

They also have this analogue commenting & tagging going on printed photos where they supply Post-Its for people to comment and paste on the blank space under the photos. 

This one made me chuckle the most. You may want to embiggen the photo by clicking on it so you could see my point.

To KL Flickr-ites, this is a mighty fine job you have done! It would have been fun if you documented the construction process of the geotag wall like Cody Hudson documented his installation (via Kitsune Noir):
