// Kuala Lumpur: Family Edition//
What you may or may not have realized about me yet is that I am half Chinese. The Chinese side of my family have lived in Malaysia for ages — primarily in some combination of Kuala Lumpur, Penang and Ipoh.
Most of childhood summers were spent running around my grandparent’s home in KL and eating the most delicious food that I have ever had the pleasure of eating, including but not limited to INSANE AMOUNTS of roti canai from our local spot.
Each time I go home to KL, I trawl through books of old family photographs and ask my family members about their lives. [2012 promises an exciting update on the latter].
Here are some amazing pictures of pictures of my family in KL in the 50s and 60s that I saw at my uncle’s home in London recently. INCREDIBLE!

See…? Here is dad at the Francis Alys exhibition at the Museo de Arte de Lima. December, 2011.
Great interview with photographer Magnus Reed over at FvF.
Most interesting are his thoughts on whether or not it is easier to be a photographer today or back in the 80s when he got his start relatively casually.
I think in many professions this is a good question to consider — now, we have so much access to tools and networks, but it can almost be overwhelming and there are so many paths forward. I think it is just a question of choosing and going forward stubbornly and adjusting as life happens.
