Creative Technologist
Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 22/03/2019
» Since his debut last July with the interactive wall Click Canvas at Yelo House, Natthakit "Kimbab" Kangsadansenanon has gone on to produce The Crown Pavilion, which he co-created with Conscious for Awakening Bangkok 2018 and Pixercise for Bhiraj Tower. The 26-year-old "creative technologist" revealed his latest work at Heineken 2.0 Barcade last weekend. A guest lecturer at several leading universities, Kimbab continues to produce interactive works that are an intersection of creativity, human experience technology and games. We catch up with him to ask about his unique creations and whether he still finds it difficult to explain what he does.

Hitting High Notes
Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 12/10/2018
» This year saw finalists from Southeast Asia, South Korea, India, Australia and China perform at Aloft Seoul Myeongdong on Sep 20. Hanita Bhambri delivered a powerful performance of Let Me Go and is this year's winner. Through Aloft's partnership with Universal Music Group, she gets a music video and a digital release of her single to kick start her career. Although Nontree "Nate" Paitoonvongvira, who represented SEA, didn't win, he wowed the audience with a catchy performance so much that we want (you) to get to know him. You may remember him performing a jazz rendition of Britney Spears' Toxic on The Voice but there's more to this singer/interior designer.

Doodler dream
Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 01/02/2019
» They say a picture is worth 1,000 words but perhaps this classic idiom needs an update. Let's go with, "a Line sticker is worth 1,000 words and some cash too if you know how to make them". Mouthful, I know, but read on and all will become clear.

Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 15/02/2019
» Living up to its name, Siam Discovery The Exploratorium continues to bring art and creativity to the city with their latest event "Siam Discovery: Discovery Street Culture". As part of the event, a core member of UFO907, noted graffiti crew from New York, is having his first exhibition titled "Zero To Hero" in Thailand, after two main exhibitions in Japan.

Back to the Grind
Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 04/01/2019
» There is already a lot of sound advice on how to prepare yourself for going back to work after a long holiday. I, too, want to help ease your (and my) post-vacation blues in my own way by reminding you of the good things to come this year.

The road to redemption
Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 21/09/2018
» Akkarin "Rung" Puri spent almost half of his life behind bars. Instead of hiding his dark past, he's open about his ex-inmate status and uses it to inspire convicts to change their way and campaign for understanding and, more importantly, second chance for them to be part of society again. A guitar maker (Be Light Guitar; fb.com/belightguitar) and speaker at prisons, Rung talked to us about his long road to redemption.

Winding down at White Wood Beach
Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 11/08/2017
» Renaissance Phuket Resort & Spa manages to blend in with its green surrounding and yet also sprouts an air of chicness. The vast and airy lobby building which has turtle-shell roofs and understated art pieces looks out onto a beautiful pond and, from a distance, villas amid lush greenery to block prying eyes. On our way to a low-rise building where our Deluxe Rooms were waiting, we walked past white sands, lush bushes and palm trees.

The art of poking fun
Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 01/06/2018
» Tanawat "Pop" Prakammanu, 26, works as a graphic designer at an advertising agency in Bangkok and runs his Facebook page Prakammanu (fb.com/Prakammanu), where he showcases his drawings in his spare time. He went viral after publishing an action-filled Avengers-inspired comic with a cast full of figures in Thai politics from PM Prayut Chan-o-cha to student activist Netiwit Chotiphatphaisal. Pop poked fun at them with sharp humour (even though he insists he's a casual observer) and witty dialogues. His latest effort has been shared more than 100,000 times. His page isn't the first to poke fun at Thai politics but we think it's definitely worth checking out especially if you want to see Uncle Tu having a fist-fight with Thaksin Shinawatra. We talked to Pop about his serious art of poking fun but at, his request, no serious political comment.

Since then, the brothers have branched out with a café in Esplanade Ratchada and a dessert shop in CentralWorld while Coro Field thrives as an example of what agriculture 4.0 looks like. We talked to them about their green ambition to plant a seed for modern farming while helping Thai farmers.
