Toys R You
Life, Sasiwimon Boonruang, Published on 15/03/2013
» At birth it is an astronaut, a figure just landed and alien to its surroundings. With a large and faceless head, it's generic yet eye-catching. As time goes on, the blank canvas gathers character and it morphs into being, perhaps growing up to be a hilltribe doll or martial arts legend or a Star Wars character. This is a platform toy, which is all the rage among international design and toy enthusiasts.

The art of travel
Life, Published on 15/03/2013
» Our first guess is that a documentary about young backpackers embarking on a cross-continental journey must be more or less about seeking the meaning of life. But after one of the characters throws us such a great dilemma as "to poop, or not to poop" _ a quandary facing most travellers in a tight spot to catch a train _ it's no longer that easy to surmise where this film will take us.
