Dongeng Geologi

http://rovicky.wordpress.com/
Hey hey..., since I am studying Disaster Preparedness, Mitigation and Management here at AIT, and I realized that the FoS I've chosen is a bit far from my past focus of study (I mainly focused on urban space development), though it's still in the frame of urban planning, I still think that I really stupid in this area, then I started to look for references related to my field of study.

Most of disasters are natural disaster, and most of natural disasters are caused by geological phenomenon, so when I searching for it suddenly I stopped in this blog. Much much informations inside, and what I really love from this blog is the writer (Mr. Rovicky - Geologist) makes all the scientific explanation in very simple language, so common people like me can easily undertand.

It maybe also useful for you to broaden up your knowledge in geology... Really, all the explanations are in simple language :)

Merapi Visit




Hello fellas!

Actually this should be a long time ago post, but I am so sorry I just catch the mood to post this now. Hihihi... It belong to my after graduate project White Canvas Shoes that I planned to visit many interesting places in the world, especially in my home town Yogyakarta.

After the big volcano eruption in the late 2010, Merapi settlement area became devastated, almost all houses damaged, and many people died (for unnecessary reasons, in my opinion, because there was a lot of warnings long long before the lava and hot cloud strikes the village). But people activity in Merapi now still running and developing to be volcano tourism destination. Kinda love this new attraction of Yogyakarta tourism, but still a bit afraid of the risk in the area.

These pictures included my first trip to Merapi after the eruption on April 16th 2011, and the second trip to the temporary shelter on June 25th 2011. I felt sad when I visited the damaged houses, and a bit spooky, it feels like every single thing left in the houses can whisper...
