The Refugee Camp

I only posted live stuff even though the sound quality is not so good on Zealots. I didn't like Fugees at first, I thought it was sampled to heavily. I was an idiot. The Fugees were awesome I wish I saw them live. I miss this musical era.

Cherokee Dump

Yup it's been two months. But that's how it goes. I went away and now I'm concentrating on flying. Or maybe I Don't have anything to say about all the bullshit. tobad we can't use bullshit to fuel our economy. Everyone is so happy with trendy clothes and facebook, what the fuck do we need ideas for?

I posted some crap on the web in a few different places.

Here's "The Carlitos" warming up with Cherokee! on a Saturday afternoon at Club Deluxe in San Fran.

I'm actually more proud of this next one which comprises of images on Freemont Street, dowtown Las Vegas. The strip is a dump, if you ever end up in Vegas, go downtown.



I've decided I'm going to make more of these living stop motion pieces. I'll post them here.

Genius Accident Dog

It doesn't happen very often, that some genius materializes some perfect notion. Such ideas are life changing, the very direction of history often hinges itself on such genius. It can be anything, we can all think of dozens of examples; the wheel, the plough, paper, refrigeration, radio, I won't go on.

No, it can't be wine or soap because those things weren't conceived for their purpose - there's some accidental quality about them. The dude who invented wine wasn't thinking, I want to taste a liquid that smells and tastes of the earth around me and if I consume enough possesses me with the power of the universe. No, he crushed some grapes like he did with everything he could get his hands on, left some in a corner he forgot about and drank it a couple months later. The community crusher soon became the town drunk and his real genius was wanting to turn everything around him into liquid - the rest was the spirits gift (npi).

The kind of thing I'm talking about, such as the radio, perform as conceived - no accident. The women watching those idiots carrying logs from the back to the front of the line so they could roll their fishing boat down the beach, was tired of waiting for someone to haul in the nets. So she shared her plan for the wheel. Oh no, it was no accident, she wanted to get things moving faster and free up the liquid makers time.

How many times did van Gogh paint those sunflowers? That was no accident, he knew what he was trying to convey and didn't quit until he achieved it and he was nuts. Which brings up another question, for another time.

La Linea, was no accident. Maybe I blew it up a bit with talk of the wheel but think about it... This dude, Osvaldo Cavandoli, materialized genius with a perfect, simple notion. Three minute entertainment, that can be broadcast in any country, to any demographic, at any time and produced for very little money. La Linea speaks a universal language and tells a story that everyone loves. Who doesn't have three minutes to laugh?

If you follow these rules to make a television program I wonder what would happen? Is that how Gags came to be, check out this driving dog, hard to argue with that!

Yup, this all hinges on a driving dog.

La Linea, Osvaldo Cavandoli.

XTC Sanford God

Great band, great song. This live clip isn't bad but there are much better quality recordings out there. This clip begs the question, what happened to some instruments and a good idea?

There is so much culture in today's counter-culture, you can't recognise it from the brand names. Betraying their songs lyrics, XTC have nothing to sell here.

Paper and Iron

Sanford on the other hand, has shit loads to sell, if you're buy'n?

We're such bigots today, as if not saying it makes us better. Repeat after me Y - T, now say it fast YT, YT, YT!

Sanford and Son

One of this weeks big news items asked, are liberals and atheists smarter? The answer seems pretty obvious given the question and subject matter. I wonder what Sanford would say of that, probably something like, sure they're smarter, they can be anything they like as long as they pay for it on the way out!

My understanding is that basically since the 60's academics have agreed, IQ tests were only a marker of your socio-economic status. In that case maybe the headlines should read, rich educated people don't believe in God.

Leaving me with the ammo for yet another Sanford style comment, something about why rich people don't believe in God - you follow?

Youtube Motion Malaga

So I think I'm going to get rid of my Facebook and Myspace pages and move everything over to blogger. At least I will limit my posts on Facebook and use it just for its friend network utilities. Blogger seems like a much cleaner slate by which you can post and add content. A few years ago I started adding Youtube clips, newspaper article's and whatever caught my attention to my my Facebook. I'm attempting to create a video journal, not of daily events or stories but of whatever comes to my mind whenever that is. When I look back through my Facebook posts what I find is a video record of what I was thinking and laughing about at the time.

This first video I'm posting is a link to a stop motion video I created. Laurie and I took close to 2500 digital snaps while we were visiting Malaga, Spain. This is a city my parents introduced me to 25 years ago, we ferried across from Ceuta in Morocco. I remember climbing the hill to see the Moorish castles overlooking the harbour and massive parks.

This was the perfect holiday - great seafood, rioja tinto, beaches and shopping. We rented an apartment in the old town, bought groceries from the markets and bounced from tapas bar to tapas bar. The beach is long and wide, you can walk out into the warm Mediterranean water for 50 meters, before you loose bottom. The great cathedral in the middle of the old town was of course a Mosque before the Catholics removed the Moors from power, with its giant minorette, it is still the focus of Malaga. In fact it took a 100 year siege before this, the last stronghold of the Moorish Kingdom fell to Christian forces. Christianity came to power late in the 15th century but thanks to a treaty signed after the surrender of Malaga, Moors remain in Malaga to this day and you can see their influence everywhere.

Many more, (no pun intended) left for Morocco and settled in Tangiers, Tetouan and other cities of Mediterranean Morocco. My father's people share this history and make their home in Tetouan. There you find the modern homes of all the great Andalusian orchestras among the same vibrant mix of culture that made Moorish Spain successful and colourful, for so long. Indeed, Mediterranean Morocco is what is left of Moorish Andulsia and the people who live there are Moors, a mix of Islamic, Jewish and Berber people who have lived in harmony for over 1000 years.

That is the world I imagined as we explored the city of Malaga for two weeks.

Wine Olympic French Tiger

My friend Holly has a cool blog about wine called, wine out loud. If you're like me and don't know a thing about wine but love to drink it, this is a great guide. This way you have a real wine steward to sort you out. What? You can't smell anything or at least as it relates to the wine your pouring down your throat. Holly spells it all out for you so you can just show up to your party, open your bottle and start showing off.

Please accept this as my first blog, actually second but the first doesn't really count.

There is one more week of the Winter Olympics in Vancouver, I'm obsessed with it. Even though I am Canadian I think this Olympics is shit. Some kind of commercial winter country club party. It reminds me of old fashioned zoo's where the animals were locked in cages easily seen by passers by. In this case the Olympians are the animals and the wealthy crackers are the real event. Crappy venues, great party.

oops that underline sucks - can't figure out how to un-link, so it stays. check out the article though. Hey I figured it out all you have to do is highlight, press the link button and link nothing instead of your link.

Not enough French at the Olympics you say, what is this the 70's? Cut off the dead weight before we all drown. Who cares anymore? These dinosaurs are trying to get something started again, what a non issue. This is smoke and mirrors and we fall for it every time - Nations and language are a non-issue, time to grow up and face the world. Morons, French and English.

Oh boy Tiger Woods, play golf, you're human and a savage one at that. Just like the rest of us. Idiot.
