ASM ARTSCIENCE AWARDS
A milestone event that took 21 years to materialize.
This is very dear to my heart, as much as to my brain.
Around 1997, I was involved as a member of a group of artists & scientists who initiated ALAMI - a pioneering science-inspired art platform for the convergence or synergy between the arts & sciences. It was the brainchild of Dato Mazlan Othman. The 'problem statements' for the initiative are too long to put here. We did 3 series of Alami before it dissolved when Dato Mazlan had to take an important post in UN. Since 2018 the initial efforts of ALAMI have been groomed into another milestone event - the artscience awards. I feel very blessed to b one of the judges. I took it as a humbling learning experience and also an opportunity to b inspired by the entries. Hopefully, insyaAllah it will grow into an important event for Msia & the region, complimented by an exhibition & a publication. Doakan ya.
