Meat Hair

Yikes! What artists will do... Meat-hair-art. Yes, the artist is German.

Vientiane, Lao PDR

I have been in Laos for only a couple of days, and so far it is an absolutely wonderful place.

After all the confusion, noise and pollution of Bangkok (which I was in for just one night), Vientiane is a lovely change. The people are much less well off than others in the region, but that also makes for a much nicer experience for visitors.

For a sample of the first part of my trip (from packing to the first days in Vientiane), my pictures are now online.

We're off to the northern part of Laos on Sunday (a team of 12 people are travelling on this project), which is gearing up to be wonderful.

Vancouver Gamelan Music

Here are a couple of videos that I took of the Vancouver Gamelan Orchestra Extravaganza that was put on by the Indonesian consulate in Vancouver.

Panoramas

There's some really cool (and free!) panorama software from UBC that I have found, and thought I would post two of my panoramas:

Bali - Mt. Batur

Bhutan - Sinchi-La

Cuba

We just returned from an awesome week-long vacation to Cuba with Krista and Chris. Life was a beach, and reality was far-far away (making a great vacation).

Photos are online here!
