Photos by Eric J.W. Li Last week, I visited the Vancouver Christmas Market for the very first time. I was ecstatic. A cozy, rainy date night enjoying German fare at Vancouver’s gorgeous waterfront—what’s not to love? Upon entering, I felt like I was in a mock-up straight from Western Europe. The smell of dried lavender…
Two new National Film Board of Canada (NFB) virtual reality works will be presented at the Sundance Film Festival from Jan. 23-Feb. 2, along with an award-winning short doc set in British Columbia’s Haida Gwaii. Recognizing creators who push the boundaries of storytelling with new and immersive technologies, New Frontiers is featuring the world premiere…
Another midday grew to the vault of heaven Sparse, rainy snow tingled in my fingertips Hushed in the breath, dived in the nightfall Hauls in the round, drown into my shattered dreams 停留 三点午后沉得像夕阳散尽的苍穹 指尖划过了砂糖粒儿的雨雪 经过了沉默 停留的是整宿 也缓存犹如光伏般 层层加码旧梦
Words Sherry M. Lai My first ever online purchase was a white lace bodycon long-sleeve dress from Forever 21. That was back in 2012 when Instagram was still growing, Justin Bieber was in trouble (as always), and Forever 21 was reaching its peak, not its downfall. After filing for bankruptcy on October 3, 2019, Forever…
My name is Kevin. I’m 46 years old, and I’m in my first year attending the Radio Arts and Entertainment Program at BCIT. I know what you’re thinking: OK, Boomer. Technically, I’m not a Boomer, I’m Gen X, and I don’t care if you’re on my lawn. The only two requests I have are: a)…
Photo design by Tracy Ngo These are great to eat throughout the week, but since we use wheat wraps instead of rice, they also freeze quite well. Doubling the recipe is a great idea if you want to throw half in the freezer for later. The peanut satay makes a nice dipping sauce and can…
Zach Whitbread is a twenty-something-year-old frog who’s a complicated mess of music, scribbles, hopes, and horrors. He’s currently a fourth term computing student, but when he’s not dying at BCIT, he spends his time writing, drawing, and creating. Lately, his focus is on pixel art and custom cassettes for video game soundtracks. For a short…
Photography by Eric J.W. Li Amine Doulfikar is a powerhouse. The fourth-year BCIT electrical engineering student actively leads two clubs, teaches mixed martial arts (MMA) and professionally competes in MMA tournaments outside of academia. The Moroccan-born Canadian not only balances it all, but he also excels. In Morocco, seven-year-old Amine was deemed responsible for all…
On October 26, American indie singer Noah Kahan played for an early crowd at the Commodore Ballroom late this October. The indie artist fuses the sounds of folk and pop to create a calming acoustic discography. His wit filled the ballroom with laughter, and his humour shined throughout his performance. Kahan has a variety of…
The launch of the Disney+ streaming service was possibly the most anticipated event of 2019. Initially, I was hesitant to join the bandwagon, but I was only able to resist the temptation for two days. It launched on November 12, and ten million people had subscribed by November 14. You’re never too old for Disney…
