Lecture & workshop at AUB

Lecture poster

So my darlings, as you just read in the poster, I will be giving a lecture & workshop at AUB, in the department of Fine Arts & Art History, this wednesday from 3:30 to 6:00 pm. So all of you who are interested are most welcome to attend and participate.

The planned schedule is as follows:

• 3:30-4:15 lecture about the use of art & blogging to make social impacts, or for self-knowledge and better understanding of our society and surroundings.
• 4:15-6:00 workshop focusing on illustration/sketching as a way of self representation in social situations that bother us.

If you want to participate to the workshop, don’t forget your pencils, papers and try to prepare a storyboard of 5 scenes depicting a story that happened with you, that has impacted you on a social/political level to discuss and develop during the workshop.

Here’s the link to the lecture announcement on the class’ blog and on AUB bulletin.

See you there

No matter what I do, I can’t seem to learn the exact limits of my car! And because 5 years ago a parking attendant told me to go back, and I trusted him and went back and ended up hitting the car behind me, I don’t ever trust parking attendants. But I know I need to work on this distance optical thing. Now I’m not sure if defining the car limits is really related to gender, but at least I’m fully aware that I do NOT know the limits of my car. And here’s a nice song to brighten up your Monday (More Than Words, Extreme), Enjoy!

(I MIGHT be slow in posting during this week because I have sooooo much to do [lecture+workshop-CC presentation-CCF exhibition-freelance work], so please forgive me, I promise you’ll be on my mind all the time!) So here’s another song to express the situation I’m in (Under Pressure, Queen & David Bowie)

Now if this gets boring, you can push the challenge to level 2 by combining Y.A.S.’ song in the background “wa7ad, tnein, tleteh, arb3a, setteh, tna3sh, setteh, tna3sh… (it can get really confusing!) Yea so I have really exhausted all the possible ways of passing time in traffic, and yesterday evening, from Beirut to Jounieh, was HELL! Hope the weekend will make it up. Have a lovely weekend all

Unmissable!
