My own heart is filled with a million wonders.
Beholding this sight,
what madness now keeps me
from becoming totally mad?
-- Jalaluddin ar-Rumi (1203-1273)
Finally, it's here. Students, architects, artists and designers alike will flock to Shah Alam tomorrow for the 21st Architectural Workshop, celebrating all architectural schools in Malaysia and whatever they stand for under the theme Rumi. As for our team, Serangkai, all preparations are now put to its final phase, ready to be wrapped with anxiousness and hope.
Our short film is finally done, Alhamdulillah. I'm not so sure of the screening, in fact perhaps there will be no screenings at all if the organisers aren't concerned enough to show the submissions, but we just hope for the best, insya Allah. I have also submmited a photo for the photography contest, of theme is to interpret a Malay poetry of your own selection.
For everything else it's expected to be an eventful celebration of arts, with a week long of exhibitions, games, installations, performances and all that sort under the name of architecture.
I'm expecting to return to Shah Alam later tonight, insya Allah with some of my friends. The whole team will arrive tomorrow, as will the teams, observers, supporters and such from every known architecture school in Malaysia.
Dance, Rumi. Let the week begins.
Posted in Seri Iskandar. Rumi stands for both the Malay-Roman script used widely today, and the great Sufi poet Mewlana Jalaluddin ar-Rumi, whose poem and philosophy transcends all time and boundaries. www.rumi2009.com
