Lover of Chai (Little India, Singapore)

We love chai here. Extra ginger. Extra spicy, please, the way Lakshmi makes in Bangalore.

Sitting on a bench watching the sea and people pass by. Early Sunday morning in East Coast Park. Without warning, a man sauntered in front of my view, carrying two sticks he transformed into elegant dancing flags. He made the sidewalk in front of me his own and began whirling like a dervish in jeans and sneakers. I was struck how he refused to let an increasingly busy sidewalk deter him. Or the cast on his right foot inhibit his act. He swung the red and yellow flag back and forth. Back and forth, helping it propel his body like a sail does a boat. We made eye contact briefly and he half-smiled, knowing that I wanted a photo. The next loop, he strutted with more confidence as if nobody was looking and I smiled in disbelief.

Hello Roden-ites, and welcome to the 40th issue of Roden — the issue of amore. Where I — Craig Mod — blast you with love. Books I love. People I love. Films I love. Software and photographs I love. Because, good lord, I could use a love blast right about now and I suspect a few of you might, too.

“There’s not really a beginning to things anymore than there’s an ending. We are in the middle of a continuum. Time is an illusion. But, we humans create patterns. We impose order on chaos so we can get our work done. I did posters in high school for musical performances, but had no notion of becoming a graphic artist or any other kind of artist for that matter, and I stopped doing art and went off to Cal Berkeley to study Classics, but got thrown out and became a printer instead. After a while-with the means of production in my hands as Karl Marx suggested-I started doing again what I’d all along really liked doing though it had never crossed my mind that you could make a living doing what you liked. So for me it’s Crafts Period all day long every day. “The Kitchen” isn’t really the first poster, but it’s the first poster that started out as a poster, and got printed for a client, and I was paid for. Someday there will indeed be a last poster, and somebody somewhere will do what they’ve been waiting to do all along with those little signs on the museum wall that say: David Lance Goines (1945 - ) and they’ll start filling in the space at the end. And it will make them very happy but I won’t care.”

Trust in Simplicity

“Whatever grows will grow, whatever dies will die, whatever works will work, whatever flies will fly, whatever fails will fail, what's meant to soar will soar. I am planting seeds, nothing more.”
