“Ignore the mess of my working space, come in and look at my artwork” ~ Jaz
I graduated in 1997 as an illustrator in a local college. As we all know, that was the year we face an economy recession. Which meant job was hard to come by for a fresh graduate like me. Thus, my first job was as a lorry driver and pay was pretty as low as RM 300.

A contemporary interactive studio which has worked on various big names and project especially for TheKDU.
One cool studio that does anything from interactive to motion graphics. It’s all about their work that shouts loud. They did one music video for Swizz Beatz, which has one flashy tune and images, remind me of ‘Like That’ from Black Eyed Peas.

eco-ego
It sure does feels good to be back in Malaysia. And we did took a wholesome lot of pictures to share with you on a massive report that we will post up soon. In the meanwhile, enjoy eco-ego by Marukin-ad, Japan. While most of the time we are bombarded with tons of press ad through the hard way of not wasting our resources and polluting the environment, this time around, this website took a rather cute-simulation games approach, which might reminds you of The Sims. Beautiful graphics.
Advertising Goodness Blog
Found this interesting blog featuring ads around the globe. Was surprised Draft FCB from Malaysia was featured as well.
Museum of Contemporary Arts Taipei
One of the main discovery during our visit to Taipei, Taiwan was part of the team able to drop by MOCA, known as The Museum of Contemporary Art Taipei, which features modern art on a different set of theme everytime. It was very fortunate for them to witness a whole new set of new media installation during the period, all known as Zone V2. More updates to come. Stay and enjoy!
