Logo and Web Design

These days I was working on a new design for the web page of the Korean Cultural Center Cluj-Napoca. I post a preview showing the new logo. Zilele acestea am lucrat la un design nou pentru site-ul Centrului Cultural Coreean din Cluj Napoca. Postez o imagine cu un logo nou. Mai multe imagini in curand !

Needed Time to Reinvent

After returning at the end of August to Europe from Seoul, South Korea, I restarted my work on some projects [multiple spheres] inspired by my Korean experience. The recent inactivity from my website is justified simply by my need to “reinvent” my creation from the basics due to major changes of my personality after encountering a highly dynamic and superior culture. While I sincerely hope to be able to complete my plans, from now on I will start posting information about my new projects.

Dupa revenirea mea in Europa la sfarsitul lunii august din Seul, Coreea de Sud, mi-am reinceput proiectele [domenii multiple] inspirate din experienta acumulata in Coreea. Inactivitatea recenta de pe site-ul meu se explica pur si simplu din nevoia simtita pentru a-mi “reinventa” creatia de la zero, din cauza schimbarilor personalitatii mele dupa contactul cu o cultura dinamica mult superioara. De vreme ce sper sa imi pot duce planurile la bun sfarsit, voi incepe sa postez informatii despre proiectele mele noi.

Manga Fashion

Held on 9-10 May 2009, the Manga Festival of Seoul, South Korea, reunited fans of Asian animation around their usual meeting point, Yangjae Station. Thousands of fans had the chance to view an extravagant parade of Manga Fashion, more commonly known as Harajuku Fashion due to its Japanese origins. Posing for the photographers, playing games and having fashion contests, they managed to impress the viewers. Controversial fashion, an extreme form of art, or just frustrated teenagers, call them however you like... but you will never be one of them!!!

Tinut intre 9-10 mai 2009, Festivalul Manga din Seul, Coreea de Sud, a reunit fanii animatiei asiatice in jurul punctului obisnuit de intalnire, Statia Yangjae. Mii de fani au avut sansa sa vada o extravaganta parada a Modei Manga, cunoscuta deseori sub numele de Moda Harajuku datorita originii japoneze. Pozand pentru fotografi, jucandu-se si avand concursuri de moda, au reusit sa ii impresioneze pe spectatori.Moda controversata, o forma extrema de arta sau doar adolescenti frustrati, ii puteti numi cum vreti... dar nu veti fi niciodata unul dintre ei!!!

Gyeongbokgung

Gyeongbokgung is one of the five royal palaces built by the Joseon Dynasty in Seoul, South Korea. It was constructed by King Taejo in 1395 and after being destroyed by the Japanese invasion of 1592, it was rebuilt in 1868. The restoration process ended up with a unique architectural complex composed by more than 300 buildings, but the Japanese occupation from the beginning of the XX-th Century damaged the palace’s layout. Today, the restored buildings of the most important areas are opened to visitors, being the most impressive piece of traditional Korean architecture preserved in Seoul.

Gyeongbokgung este unul dintre cele cinci palate regale construite de dinastia Joseon in Seul, Coreea de Sud. A fost construit de Regele Taejo in 1395. Dupa ce a fost distrus de invazia japoneza din 1592, a fost reconstruit in 1868. Procesul de restaurare a dus la crearea unui ansamblu compus din peste 300 de cladiri, dar ocupatia japoneza de la inceputul secolului XX a afectat grav palatul. Astazi cladirile restaurate ale locatiilor de o importanta majora sunt deschise vizitatorilor, oferind imaginea celei mai spectaculoase piese de arhitectura traditionala coreana pastrata in Seul.

literature

After the long break since the “Parallel Destinies” short novel written between December 2004 and January 2005, I resumed my activity in the domain of literature, working on a new novel. Some of the fragments of the script written for the “obscurus”  animation in 2008 will be probably embodied in a chapter of the new work. Soon, I will upload newly written paragraphs.  

Dupa o puaza lunga de la scrierea nuvelei "Destine Paralele" intre decembrie 2004 si ianuarie 2005, mi-am reluat activitatea in domeniul literaturii, lucrand la un roman. Cateva din fragmentele scenariului scris pentru animatia "obscurus" in 2008 vor fi probabil incorporate intr-un capitol al creatiei noi. In curand, voi posta fragmente noi.
