Our meeting with Ahmed Omar on Tuesday the 31st of May was very enjoyable. He is a very talented young media artist currently finishing his studies at the University of Southern California. He is working on an interactive project dealing with scavenger children in Pakistan for the 3 months of summer this year.

He showed us his ideas and I was amazed that in terms of conceptualizing and designing the structure of his projects he is way advanced than most of us.What he has going for him is the fact that he applies his aesthetic and technical judgements in the best possible way. It would be great to have him liasoning with Mauj as he can give us very stimulating input.
