BLAST. DELVE. EXPLORE. CAPTURE. GATHER. COLLABORATE. CAPTIVATE. CREATE. MAKE. SUCCEED. BLAST.

Hello,

BLAST! Welcome on board to MaySW launched on this day today 8/8/11- supposedly an auspicious lucky Chinese date.

A blog that ventures to display materials for creative idea generation to build a succession of designs, however random it may be; from place to place, person to person, item to item, art to art, nature to nature, bit to bit.

Some background info behind MaySW

So, keeping it quite short, the ultimate intention is to create and achieve. And since I have an abundance of jumbled ideas locked in my head, I feel it is time to document and collaborate these details, and future details, in a technological way. From scattered to organised scatter.

After travelling extensively across the globe, hopping along from beaches to mountains to glaciers to deserts to cities to villages from the undeveloped to the developed and back to the undeveloped, I’ve opened my eyes to (at least four of them) and have lingered in my memory an array of cultures and customs. As a result I can say, yep..I’ve learnt a very hefty amount criss-crossing from all sides of the spectrum. Having admired all of these cultures for each of their own unique flavours, characteristics and variety, I’ve surprised myself as I have established that I am able to pinpoint certain aspects of these cultures I do favour over others. It's time to explore these chosen aspects > GO.

This site will encapsulate the above, as well as bury deeply into Textiles (with some fashion) and Art. These final two elements have remained with me for a number of years either exposed or discretely in my head.

Thanks for reading and join me on my creative quest. This learning curve is growing > Watch the fruition.

It'll be a BLAST.
