meeting after the media art exhibit
A very pleasant Mauj meeting was held on the cool green lawns of the Indus Valley school of Art and Architecture after opening of the media art show sponsored by Vasl
We discussed Sharjah, a bit of Europe and most of Karachi
Trying to work out how this event organized by Mauj in November needs to be
Decided on a small informal event inviting the friends of Mauj
and having a very exciting interactive project related to computers, mobile phones, live feeds.....
will go on thursday to check out the venue at the Arts council
Mai Safoora
What a fabulous story about Mai Safoora near Safoora Goth by writer Abbas Jalbani in the Dawn Oct 6 edition, what fascinated me was the sculpture of the wine jug at Safoora Chowk, the online version does not have the picture unfortunately

This is a must addition to the urban history of Karachi!

2008/9/27 Atteqa Malik:
dont know but he said it was difficult to meet before he left, had a chat with him
he said he would write to Shireen Pasha
and ask Nilofer to speak a bit about her work in media art as well
we need to discuss what format are we using: rent a big screen tv or a projector and a screen, what kind of panel format we will have to show work, cause it cant be just talk talk talk,
what about our proposal to Kara? when and how do we write it, should we make a wiki?
We want peace
Peace
a word that we are vowing to use work towards in all our exchanges from now on

bomb blast at Islamabad Marriott
A terrible and unfortunate thing to happen. this is definitely going to affect a lot of cultural and sporting events scheduled all over Pakistan in the coming months in terms of overseas participation. Pakistanis die, Pakistanis get bad media publicity and Pakistanis suffer! but Pakistanis continue to keep their head above the water
