When you thought that internet was going to obliterate all sorts of existing media, you were mistaken. It is silently, slowly killing them one by one by being the second screen – by being there in support of what’s showing on the TV.
One day, it will be the only TV.
I don’t know but it’s creeping in unimaginable ways. First, browsing while taking a crap. Now, 9GAG while in the shower!

Four of us from Chikka visited Smart by invitation from Edmond Gozo – the Experience Engineer of Smart. He told us he’ll show us something on the works related to the Design Thinking workshop we recently held under him.
The term, D, was inspired by the d.school (Institute of Design at Stanford). With school supplies and cardboard-styrofoam construction materials abound, it seemed more like a playroom at a pre-school wherein you get to do something from scratch the whole day. It was a teleport from the traditional meeting room wherein there’s a table, chairs, and an intercom at the middle.
Sticky notes were flaking the walls with drawings and ideas of existing and conceptual products. This is where ideas get churned and grinded, I thought.
Although still at the prototype stage, it is not the physicality of the room that will get to be replicated at various locations in the building – it is the mindset, the distinct experience of people using the room. The room becomes a means to cultivate the change in the culture of people.
In simple experiments like this we enable ourselves to progress and accept changes that are inevitable.
When I was younger, the rise of technology pointed to a future where we would all enjoy more leisure time but in fact, the more we can do the busier we become.

I was a kid of 22. I had my share of birthday blues – watched a pirated movie, ate at Pizza Hut, bought myself a guitar, too.
And then, Jaycelle.
In 2006, I started a blog in Blogger called Happy Obituary Documentaries. It hosted a short-lived documentaries of random pictures I liked to take at that time.
One particular content that’s been lost in time are the graffiti and vandalism on the walls of the now-gone stadium of Montano Hall in Cavite City.
The stuff were mostly teenage angst and raging hormones to the point of murder.
