While waking by the Moscone Center garage I heard some shuffling sound and saw a hand ruffling from a temporary shelter built on a row of bike racks.

I was trying to identify representative works of a friend, so I just went to his FB profile to see what he has bragged about recently.

How would individual cells of our bodies work together as individuals?
The sense of self might be an evolutionary construct to help that happen, without other (deep) philosophical or religious reasons.

Mr. ???? walking

Mr. ???? was introduced to me during an early morning dream on January 23 2023.
I forgot his name after waking up but still remember his face and his motion on an elliptical machine.
This is an exercise of recording (the vibe of) his face with a walking body motion.

Asian competitive advantage for SIGGRAPH

I liked to joke that Asian folks have a competitive advantage for SIGGRAPH since its deadline is usually before the lunar new year, but this year proves a rare exception.

Neither matters that much to me anymore, though.

Stick caterpillar dream on January 18 2023

I dreamed about a caterpillar crawling with its front part sticking up stiff due to fungal infection, which I captured by a physical acrylic painting on the evening and digitally drew and animated a few days later.

Dream on January 19 2023

This is the second dream I had (or remembered) after 4:40 am and I already forgot the first one.
Found myself sweating and heart pumping fast both times.

Sometimes I am envious about people who can stay in bed after waking up in the morning; I either feel bored at that time or have to record a vivid dream before it is gone.
