barcamp: Consciousness

Simply speaking, Consciousness is the study about the relation between our mind and our body. Sometimes, we physically situated at somewhere but our minds go to somewhere eles... A PolyU professor shared about Consciousness in barcamphk 2010!

One key point to understand why we do something is to differentiate the following four:
- fear
- desire
- need
- joy

For example, we went to the student canteen of PolyU for lunch yesterday... Why?
From my point of view, we need to lunch and that's our need but we can lunch anywhere instead of the student canteen. So, this is not caused by need. Is it joyful? Yup, pretty joyful when chatting with other barcampers... but we can chat anywhere. Is it the desire? or is it fear? Desire to have free lunch? or fear of paying for a lunch? em... 50/50 in this case :P but I think it should be my desire of free lunch :P

PLus ... wanna post 2 pictures of the 军声砂石画 (being introduced during the tour)... that's pretty new to me.



This kind of art gives EXTREMELY HIGH "dpi". Yes, dot per inch.... Since it uses raw materials like woods, sands and rocks as the painting materials, the texture of the objects in the painting is pretty close to the texture of real objects. The following is a close-up of the bottom right corner of the painting above and you can find that there are many sands.
