At fish and bird market - part 2

Karolus Naga and Doni Maulistya came to Malang. Together with my neighbour Benny Nur Susanto, we went to Pasar Burung Malang on a beautiful Saturday morning. 

We started with black coffee and some cigar to warm up.

Only two hours, but it was a nice experience with two maestros.

Down Is The New Up

" Eskalator adalah sebuah oksimoron (oxymoron): kombinasi dua unsur yang berlawanan. Eskalator membuat kita berpindah sementara kita tetap diam di tempat - jadi, perpindahan dalam diam. Gerakan eskalator telah memenuhi kebutuhan untuk berpindah ... Pada saat yang sama terpenuhilah kebutuhan untuk tidak berpindah demi mengadakan kontak fisik. Jadi, di mana lagi orang dapat sedikit bermesraan secara terang-terangan kalau bukan di eskalator. " - Tubuh di Mal (Chua Beng-Huat) - Kalam 15
