Going to San Francisco

Hello,

I’m thrilled to share I’m going to San Francisco to join SND 47th and present the studios latest project on; “designing something news”… For the first time the SND Creative Workshop 47, event is in two separate locations, the San Francisco Bay Area and Singapore.

The 47th Edition of the Society for News Design’s Creative Competition, SND47, takes place April 20–24 with a week of events, including SND’s first workshop in Southeast Asia — a landmark expansion of the organization’s global footprint.

The event the studio attends is at UC Berkeley’s Clark Kerr Campus, hosted by San Francisco Chronicle Creative Director and SND Vice President Alex K Fong. I’m honoured to be an invited speaker at SND 47.

The Society for News Design (SND) is an international organization for news media professionals and visual communicators.

“If you’re going to San Francisco, be sure to wear some flower in your hair”

I hear AI is everywhere in San Francisco, from Waymo, the business to the conversations. A different revolution from when ‘Going to San Francisco’, by Scott McKenzie was played in the flower power movement, not sure what Robots wear?

While staying I’m excited to sense the variety of culture with the world’s first Japantown, catch a glimpse of the aestethics; the Golden and the painted ladies and just experience the atmosphere and food!
