“… I remember seeing the sun rising and how the sunlight gave shape to the land. I looked down towards the ocean as the hull of the ship cut through very dark waters. Suddenly, I saw a large figure following the ship. It was a humpback whale. At that moment, it felt like a secret I wanted to keep all to myself - you just want to hold on to moments like that and not tell anyone else, you know? ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
So I asked myself, “Why was I feeling that way?”. Was it because of this natural instinct from being a photojournalist where you would want to be the first person to get that photograph, hoping that nobody else would? So that was a mindset that I tried to switch off and leave behind.” ⁣⁣

“The abstinence-only s*x education is very prevalent and it’s so difficult to undo it. It’s not just about teaching the kids, it’s about teaching the parents and the providers of the syllabus to the kids. They don’t understand what it is and why it’s effective – why abstinence-only s*x education is terrible. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Parents are the gatekeepers, really. People think the biggest issue is incurring the wrath of conservative parents, but in all my years of teaching, I’ve never had any issue with any parent. In fact, it’s all been positive – nobody has ever come up to me and said: “How dare you teach my kid this stuff?⁣⁣
⁣⁣
So it’s kind of like an unfounded fear. People think that parents are going to react a certain way and that there’s going to be a backlash, but not at all! The kids come out more balanced and having a better understanding of how things work.”⁣⁣
⁣⁣
S*x educator June Low is the creator, writer and host of Malaysia’s first online s*x-ed show “Popek-Popek”. She started the show after finding the lack of s*x education detrimental to rural communities in Malaysia, where she previously often travelled to conduct workshops. ⁣⁣At the time of the interview, June was working on her masters in Kyoto University, Japan.⁣

“The land will accept almost anything that you plant on it, and it has this strange ability to regulate itself in terms of not letting one w**d overrun another, I’m not quite sure how it does it.⁣⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣⁣
That is one thing that I’ve observed about the land. So if we are here on this soil, I think it’s aspirational to reflect some of its best qualities and one of them is definitely its ability to accommodate an incredible amount of diversity, its adaptability. ⁣⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣⁣
But the thing about the land is that it’s not infinitely giving - there is a limit to which you can exploit it. We plant this huge mono-crop here and we what do we get? We get increasing monocultures and increasing polarization. So I’m sure there’s a relationship between our culture and the way that we are exploiting the land. There’s a lot to learn from this relationship.” ⁣⁣⁣⁣

Artist Sharon Chin on the parallels between the soil that we live on, and the people who live on it. Read the full interview in Process Magazine Volume Two “Forms of Contemplation”. Link in bio.⁣ 🌍 🌳

⁣
The Argentinian painter took many connecting flights to become Else’s artist-in-residence, so it is no wonder that he named his exhibit “Culture Shock”. ⁣
⁣
In his maiden trip to the continent, Franco observed the nuances of life in Kuala Lumpur and his native Buenos Aires, where he was piqued by its similarity and disparity. We spoke to him about his return to oil-painting after a 10-year hiatus, and the over 30 canvases he created to showcase his experience in the tropics.⁣

As musician Fikri Fadzil () releases his latest work “Dari Pinggiran” on all your favourite streaming platforms, we look back at his interview in Process Magazine Volume One (Second Edition):⁣
⁣
“And back then, it was really expensive to release an album. There were no home studios or GarageBand – you’d have to rent a studio for hours and hours, which took a lot of money. ⁣
⁣
We had to do everything by ourselves. I come from a multimedia background, so I can work on all aspects of The Wknd if I have to. I would do stuff ranging from audio engineering to graphic design. So I suppose I had to become comfortable with wearing different hats, doing different things.”⁣

“I was just hanging out with some Swedish friends and I asked them a lot about Sweden, like what do they do to relax and stuff. So they told me about the system they use which is called ‘fika’.⁣
⁣
They told me that the term is used quite casually in a lot of contexts, for example if you are going meet a girl on a casual date, nothing super serious - it’s called fika. It’s like, just an opportunity for you to go out, pick up a coffee, and have a break. Let’s do fika. So the idea to them is that it’s technically a short break.⁣
⁣
So we were toying with the idea. We like the word “fika” because we’re in the centre of the city where it’s super busy with all these office buildings and the tourists who are walking around need to have a break too, right? So they come to our store, and take a breather. So that’s where Feeka came about.”⁣
⁣
Founder Alex Anthony on how Feeka got its name. More photos from “(10)” here - to get a copy of the zine, purchase a limited edition Feeka x Process t-shirt, or a bag of Feeka Tenth Anniversary Blend coffee beans at Feeka The Five or Jalan Mesui today! ☕️☕️☕️

In what he calls “happy accidents”, creative programmer Max Jala sees computers not only as means to create, but rather as an active participant in the creative process.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
He practices creative coding, which is the use of development code to create interactive art forms. “There’s all this logic that you put into the code and if you happen to write buggy code somewhere in the program, the output will not be what you intended it to be. Sometimes good, sometimes bad - but that’s where the good surprises, the happy accidents can come from.” ⁣⁣

“I’ve been quite fascinated by technology and its implementation into architecture, cities and built environments ever since I was in architecture school. The fourth industrial revolution has been a hot topic for the past few years and I think it is a very relevant area to explore today in projecting our way forward. ⁣
⁣
Currently we are doing a lot of research on future-proof design and speculative future cities, tapping into various technological branches such as artificial intelligence, robotic manufacturing, digital fabrication, sensors, smart mobilities and infrastructure, algorithm-aided design, and material intelligence. ⁣
⁣
My own personal interest in these topics definitely play an important role in the manifestation of the research findings into the design works I do.”⁣

I guess you could say Volume Two is now officially launched! Which story from Volume Two: “Forms of Contemplation” did you like best? 📬

“One of the things I realised after moving here was that my thoughts can reach a conclusion. And if you let an idea simmer, it naturally resolves itself and the outcome from that resolution is often more satisfying and not so labour intensive. ⁣ ⁣ It’s funny because the ideas take more time to form, but you spend less time executing it because you’re much more sure of what you want to do.” - Sharon Chin on how a slower pace of living has impacted her life as an artist. ⁣ ⁣ Read more of the interview in Process Magazine Volume Two: “Forms of Contemplation”, out now.
