Wong Kar-Wai calendar
A collection of monthly calendars. Each calendar contains visual elements sourced from and inspired by the work of filmmaker Wong Kar-Wai. A new calendar will be added at the beginning of every month in both printable and desktop wallpaper versions.
This is a group project by members of wongkarwai.net.
In 2005, each artist chose one WKW film as inspiration for the calendar.
In 2006, each artist chose two WKW films and created a visual mashup.
In 2007, each artist chose a director other than WKW and remixed his/her works with WKW's films.
In 2008, each artist is choosing a line of text from a WKW film as the basis for the calendar.
I made the following calendars:
April 2005. Read about its making. I also made an April Fools version.
May 2006. Read about its making.
January 2007. Read about its making.
