Wayang Kita-Kita - Poster Exhibition
Filmmaker Amir Muhammad and designer Liza Manshoor celebrate the 75th anniversary of Malay cinema by turning hundreds of "found" black & white stills from early Malay movies into quirky posters. The show implicitly acknowledges the crucial role of piracy in constructing our cultural memory.

Constitutional Amendments - Text Installation
The Malaysian Constitution has been amended over 600 times since 1957. The Centre for Independent Journalism's interactive exhibition highlights some of the more dubious changes and asks you to mark your preferences between the original and the amended ones. Do you dare make an informed choice?

First of all, HAPPY WORLD BOOK DAY EVERYONE!! :) Let's spread the joy of reading, not only today, but every other day by sharing great reads with your friends and family, also, if you have too many on your shelves, give them to those in need...I came across this on guardian.co.uk and thought that I'd share it with you...
