The Fengshui master told me that homes are living things. He eyed me and sending my uncertainty, said that: for all the doubters and skeptical out there, Fengshui is very much like science. Symbiosis is science. The never ending give and take of yin and yang shows that the way we inhabit houses represents the act of symbiosis Leave the house in his hands, he said. After all, his craft was the one unique attempt in history to understand the creature that is -- the home. A home without a human is a dead home, and we are the motors crucial for its function.  talk about how fengshui of homes (dead land) are vastly different from fengshui of nature (live land)

Meng has always been the first one to finish his tasks. His mother proudly said so. Even as a child, he knew of the repercussions that would come if he did not finish sweeping the corners first before gathering up the dust, he knew of the dangers of dropping grades in a public school -- not that his grades are what define him, but rather, the result of being excluded from the high performer classes would cast him into the muddied spirit of rowdiness in the normal classes. That, mother had warned, would corrupt his destiny, his potential, and ultimately, his life.  he had to attempt his best to do what was expected of him. In times where my mental capacity constrains me. Instead of facing it head on,  I work on my body. I hurt, and the part of the brain that registers pain. It Needs to find a closure that is yet to be possible (that I can’t give). I can only transpose its notes into music i can perform, my body an instrument sweating profusely, feeling the physicality of my men...

  社区项目（考察日志） 合木-手心咖啡 2023.12.01     14:00-15:30 接待人：九姑娘和一位合木合伙人 考察团队：Joe、小青、竹静、冬冬 考察会议概述：     在简单的介绍和互相认识之后，九姑娘首先向我们讲述合木是一个着力于为残障群体（尤其视障群体）创新就业开发和推动的组织。表达了项目启动的初心是发现残障人士就业的困境、正常融入到社会时遇到的各种问题等，基于这些问题，合木通过“手心咖啡”这个空间/品牌，为残障人士打造一个就业的平台，也为他们打开了重新走出社会的一扇大门。     九姑娘带我们看了咖啡厅的空间，介绍了一些设计的细节，如盲人道的设计是为消费者而设的，希望消费者能更好地感受视障群体；移动咖啡车为视障群体友好设计了隔层方便按顺序取工具，以及视障群体冲咖啡时使用提示软件等。空间还划分了另一个部分是作为价值观的体现，“合木，每个人的价值都值得被看见”，其中通过三个主要角度来呈现，分别是让残障人士从受助的角色转成助人的角色、不因身体某部分受限而限制身体其他部分的表达、以积极的心态面对和分享自己的故事。     合木不断在摸索中成长壮大，从简易的摆摊，到设计“手心咖啡”的空间，再发展到移动咖啡车的设计，还有后续其他关于残障群体多元的产品研发，一步步地积累经验，不但体现出残障群体融入社会的需求，也体现了关于残障群体的社会建设还有很大的提升空间。这也是这个项目能持续发展的一个关键。     合木除了发现问题，还能很好地利用资源整合解决问题，不断为残障群体提供多维度的帮助。例如以“手心咖啡”作为突破口，协助残障人士研发产品，开发他们的就业潜力，进行有效的心理基础建设，帮助解决生活出行问题并提升他们融入社会的信心。九姑娘分享到，在对残障人士的伸出援手时，都需要考虑到残障人士靠社区关系生存的一个特性。例如，改造房屋的项目介入设计师后，需要设计师除了考虑空间使用功能，还要考虑潜在的、切实的社会关系问题，从而设计出更优的方案。     九姑娘和合伙人展示给我们的除了是实际的空间/设备设计成果，还有他们对该项目的热诚，她...

  MANOJ: The rise of community education in the anti-poaching movement   Through: the instruction of political changes  Exposure to mainstream modernisation The rise of NGOs, infiltrating the sense of community by reshaping ideals and recalibrating new common purposes for the villagers. They start learning humanity’s benefit from conservation, they begin evaluating the opportunity cost: eco-tourism as a venue to make a living. SEKSAN: We first started this kebun with the heart to step out and helping ourselves attain the community we want. We are the components of this community, and we cannot wait to rely on people in power, or those with titles to help us. Some departments will take a lifetime before they follow through their promises to us.  Don’t worry about community. Just start doing. When I started Kebun Bangsar a lot of people were teaching me about how to do engagement in communities, and i find that those were all very western ideas— within 1km u have to do...
