Dreamer and Imaginative A - Α #1

Ioannis Karozis

Sinossi

Essential elements in every human being are humor and fiction, from myth + creature. 
Fiction is the classification of any story that originates from the imagination, and, thus, is not based on history or facts. 
 So you do not have to be an author to write a book of humorous fiction. 
The advantages of this book are that it combines humor and fiction with real-life facts and inventions of the last century, related to achievements in aerospace and technology in general, of the future. 
The data were provided by space studies of institutes, and estimates, as they are realistic as there is continuous progress in the field of space rocket technology. 
With all that mentioned, the book has an advantage over other similar books that refer to the future of space technology and are humorous fiction, as it contains scientific data and results of studies that refer to the plans of the human race in space. 
A few decades ago, space travel cost hundreds of millions of dollars, but today it is quite affordable since, with a few thousand dollars, any of us can become a space tourist !!.

We Love Chinatown

Singapore Urban Sketchers

Established by the colonial government, southwest of the Singapore River, to cater to Singapore’s Chinese-majority immigrant population, Chinatown is today a bustling destination, much like its counterparts around the world. Designated a conservation area by the Urban Redevelopment Authority in 1989, the neighbourhood is still referred to as “Niu Che Shui”—literally “ox-cart water”, a reference to how the area received its water supply—by some. The pre-war shophouses that once housed coolies, opium dens and letter-writers are now occupied by a mix of old and new: restaurants, souvenir shops, spas, bars and boutiques. The food stalls on Smith Street pay homage to hawkers of the past, and early malls like People’s Park Complex have gone new age with rooftop gardens. Reflecting Singapore’s multi-ethnic nature, Chinatown also interestingly houses the country’s oldest Hindu temple, and the prominent Jamae Mosque. We Love Chinatown offers a glimpse into this vibrant neighbourhood, as seen through the eyes of the talented artists from Urban Sketchers Singapore.
