Virtual Reality

The roof-top paintings are marvelous … ooops, those are wallpapers, not masterpieces. The shopping mall is wonderful … hey, it’s a copycat from shopping mall in Las Vegas and Tokyo. The “gaming” hall is huge … but no one is gaming, and thousands of people are gambling. The square is romantic as well … oh, there are so many construction sites around, it’s not Venice after all.

Located in Macau, it’s the world’s biggest virtual reality resort / hotel.

Cocktail Party in Museum

There was a news on TV couple of days ago concerning the museums in our city. Basically, it was reported that the local government wants to pass the responsibility of running museums to the private sector; such that they can draw in more citizens to visit the various attractions. One of the new ideas is to run cocktail parties in the museums.

Geez … exactly 10 years ago this week, I was in one museum cocktail party in Prague … exchanging business cards with some Eastern Europe computer software companies. You see, our city has not developed a bit in art scene for the whole 10 years, and still we keep kidding ourselves that we are in the best time of recent 20 years. Looks like we all have to pray …

And when talking about Prague, of course every one shall visit the old Town Square and the Charles Bridge Tower.
