Flow arts – poi, staff, clubs, juggling, contact, etc – are all arts for the body. Yet, this amazing, flexible, beautiful and vital piece of the puzzles goes ignored for the longest time! This is a recurring trait that I see over and over among new budding flow artists. It […]

Bali Poi Retreat, 2011

Nick finally OK’d Karen’s video that’s been floating around the Facebooks in secret (shh) for the last month or so and I can now officially share it with the world. Honestly, don’t go to Bali. It’s a  horrible place and there is no fun to be had there whatsoever. It’s […]

Epic Garden Party

October’s garden party was magical, crazy and exciting! Also, there was fire and pretty lights and awesome people. Skins shot some pictures – check them out here: Skins’ Blog. Here’s a sampler! We all wore “Carpe Awesome” tshirts to celebrate Burning Dan’s awesomeness too! Videos will undoubtedly come soon!

Garden Party

So Kat and I shot a bunch of footage at the last Epic Garden Party and haven’t had a chance to edit it. We recently got together and did some hardcore Premiere sessions in which she taught me a bunch of awesome things. I did some tweaking and post-production of […]

Southern Lights – Full-Fat Edition

Right. Now that I actually have time to post a *real* entry about SL, here goes. To begin with, I wasn’t going to go to Southern Lights as I was quite simply too poor to afford a ticket. Thankfully, the gorgeous Safire stepped in and offered me one of hers […]

Southern Lights “lite”

I can’t post a full writeup of the Southern Lights festival I went to but I *did* draw a map of what I roughly remember it being like.

Aberdeen Fun

A couple of weeks ago, I travelled up to Aberdeen in sunny Scotland to catch up with (and meet) my friend Cat, whom (or is it who) I initially got to know through the Playpoi Bali retreat, and a bunch of other disparate strangers all of the flow arts persuasion. […]
