save the last waltz for me
Did the vacuum cleaner dance today, and made me think that dirt is formed in areas where we use, and collect in areas we don't. So would it be possible to design a room such that dirt collects itself in the dustbin?
CALL FOR SPONSORSHIP FOR CALL FOR SUBMISSION
Taking eco-living to the next stage, eco-living should not just be about recycling unwanted material or cutting down on resource usage, but also maximizing the use of "wasted" energies and turn them into useful energies. This call for submission is a step towards a lifestyle which wasted energies may be turned to do useful work.
The Challenge CAT A : To design a room or an entire house that makes use of air movements generated by the movements of its inhabitants during urban-living related activities to naturally collect dust in places in the space that facilitate easy cleaning. The design should reflect how our everyday lives interact with our living spaces through activities that satisfy various needs which are integral to urban living. The design should also reflect manufacturing processes that do not consume any more energy resources than is needed to put together a current-day living space that satisfies the same needs.
The Challenge CAT B : To design an office space that makes use of unwanted heat from machines and radiation in the air to perform tasks that make the office environment more inhabitable. Any new facility introduced should not consume additional energy or resources in its usage. The manufacture of any new facility may consume energy resources up to the amount of energy resources it is able to recycle within a 5-year period. Designs may assume the existence of mass-production facilities for the production of any new equipment needed to create this office space.

rainy night
went to a fabulous late dinner today! the food was great and the place was great... and there were a couple of people preparing for a live...
anyway, it started raining after dinner. and it's raining now and the wind is pretty strong tonight. and it sounds like the wind is knocking on my door.
