» Sensory light and instrumental melodies greet us as we lift each black curtain to see projections of blooming flowers, flowing sea waves and crows. As we continue to navigate along the dark hallway, we come out in a playground filled with sea creatures, light balls, transforming hieroglyphics and more. Bangkok's brand-new playground -- teamLab IsLands: Dance! Art Museum, Learn & Play! Interactive Theme Park -- is set to enthral its young visitors and the whole family through interactivity and co-creation.
Tanwarin's latest a delight, full of tantalising surprises
Life, Melalin Mahavongtrakul, Published on 26/09/2014
» There's a turmoil of emotions, daring and unexpected in Tanwarin Sukkhapisit's latest comedy-drama Love Sud Jin Fin Sugoi. This film (whose title is a linguistic potpourri, an English word mixed with Japanese and Thai slang terms) is packed with familiar faces (the Thai cast members) and also features an appearance by Japanese rock star Makoto Koshinaka. It focuses on the tangled relationships among a group of friends, most of whom seem to be harbouring a secret crush on another member of the group. Then there's the added complication of gender: in this film, gender is not an obstacle automatically preventing one character from being strongly attracted to another.
