Science should prioritise conservation efforts to safeguard these creatures and their habitats. Just like the water dear with an estimated 10,000 left in China, now is the time to act. Because no recreated vision from our distorted memory can ever replace the…

Embracing Artistic Chaos
If you could be a character from a book or film, who would you be? Why?
I’d Choose to Be Mr. Brainwash from “Exit Through the Gift Shop” if only for a moment. For me, Mr. Brainwash from the documentary (or is it mockumentary?) film “Exit Through the Gift Shop.” His enigmatic persona, boundless creativity, and relentless pursuit of artistic expression embody qualities that I aspire to cultivate…

The Art of Self-Awareness
What was the best compliment you’ve received?
The most unexpected critiques hold the keys to our greatest revelations. For me, it was a seemingly unassuming comment buried within my seventh-grade report card: “spasmodic worker.” At the time, I had to consult a dictionary to decipher the term. Yet, in its essence, it encapsulated a truth about my work ethic that I had yet to acknowledge.
