The recent buzz about creative labour, creative professions or creative writing has added a realistic dimension to our romantic reveries. The creative hype has also helped us see the situatedness of idealism and the trammels of real life.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Three superstar alumni, Calvert Fu (\u7b26\u5bb6\u6d5a), Joeie Chan, and Chan Ka Long (\u9673\u5609\u6717) came home and talked about what life was like after graduating from Bachelor of Arts (Hon) in Cultural Studies and Creative Industries #CSCI #\u6587\u5316\u7814\u7a76\u53ca\u5275\u610f\u7522\u696d (previously known as Liberal and Cultural Studies #LCS). How did they explore career opportunities and reconcile the unavoidable conflicts between creative ideals and mundane life?  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Calvert Fu (\u7b26\u5bb6\u6d5a) is a member of the a-cappella group Senza<\/em>. His personal creative oeuvre has been viewed over 15 million times on various social media platforms.\u00a0 He has been regularly performing in the biggest venues in Hong Kong, such as AsiaWorld Expo and the Hong Kong Coliseum.\u00a0 He frequently collaborates with other superstars such as \u5f35\u5b78\u53cb (Jacky Cheung), \u8a31\u5ef7\u93d7, AGA, \u9ea5\u6d5a\u9f8d (Juno Mak), \u67f3\u61c9\u5ef7, \u8fb2\u592b (Fama) and \u5433\u6797\u5cf0 etc.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our year 3 and 4 CSCI students and students from Associate Degree Cultural Studies (CULS) welcomed such a great occasion for meaningful exchanges with creative professionals. These three superstar alumni brought home the crucial point in earning a bachelor degree with CSCI: from time to time we could escape from life and take refuge in creative work\u2026 but at the end of the day, we need to work hard to make a career out of creativity for there is no life without art, and no art without life.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
