Development art for the Thai film "Khan Kluay". The art team and I worked together for a year just getting the look of the film down. Basing images on the script that co-director Aaron Sorensen, and writer Ariel Prendergast , and I were putting together.
There were some amazing artists at Kantana, including my pal, production designer, Prachanue "The Nue" Noree, who helped lead the art team.
Khan Kluay is different from a lot of my other work in that it was designed for the "Wide Screen" cinema, trying to get the feeling of a "Thai Epic". But still following the same simple "Shape Principles" of design. Designing for wide screen is fun, but challenging. At the time we were trying to make the compositions work for both the movie theaters, and the cut-off on people tv's at home.

A followup to my photo during the interesting loading of these vessels destined for scrap. The Development Way is a semi-submersible -- the floating cargo is nudged into position, then she lifts back out of the water and everything is welded and secured in place for the trip to China.
Something I hadn't noticed until I shot this closer detail is that the Straits Logger has another three small vessels loaded on top of her.

GoServ Global Development Director Chris Caswell talks about GoServ and Sukup Manufacturing Company's Safe T Home® and the 500 Safe T Homes that survived the earthquake in Haiti, how Sukup employees gladly work to produce the parts and how charitable groups help with the costs and labor to build the homes where needed around the world and nationally, while at the Farm Progress Show in Boone, IA, on August 31, 2022. They showcase a highly modified grain bin resistant to earthquakes, termites, and moisture. Grain bin houses or silo homes have provided disaster relief to families worldwide with day-to-day shelter for those who need a safe place to live.
A devastating earthquake hit Haiti in 2010, destroying homes, businesses, and facilities. During the recovery period, their teams saw an opportunity to build cost-effective refugee housing that would withstand natural disasters.
These homes have withstood Hurricane Matthew's 145-mile-per-hour winds for the 8-hour duration with minimal damage. Since then, they have provided nearly 300 silo homes in Haiti, as well as homes in Uganda for refugee children fleeing from South Sudan, Peru, and Kenya.
A Safe T Home® costs $5,700 for nonprofits intending to use the grain bin house for humanitarian efforts. Approximately ten homes fit on one shipping container. Other installation costs for shipping and building the cement foundation can bring the prices to roughly $7,500 for one of these homes.
The overall round design withstands high winds, while the near-zero seismic load is virtually earthquake-proof. Inside, 254 sq. ft. provides families with long-term refugee housing or short-term disaster relief.
These homes made of 20-gauge galvanized steel have a 75-year life expectancy. These silo homes measure 18 ft. in diameter with eight ft. sidewalls. They stand 13.5 ft. from the bottom to the roof peak.
The double roof system deflects heat, redirects rainwater, and ventilates the interior space regardless of wind direction. The roof can support 5,000 pounds for families who wish to add a sleeping or storage loft. Outside, three container spaces for cement and other heavy material provide up to 18,000 pounds of ballast to weigh the structure down against wind or waves. Window gardens can grow on the ballast material.
The galvanized building material provides 100 percent termite, fire, and weatherproof. The metal windows have lockable covers for security and 16-gauge, galvanized steel screens. Each home includes a solar panel, giving families renewable energy for lighting.
Homes also have water collection potential. Louvers in the heat shield capture rainwater for cooking, bathing, or growing crops.
GoServ Global is a nonprofit organization.

Long straight stretches of red road characterise travel through the Australian outback and this 260km stretch along the Kennedy Development Road between Hughenden and Lynd in outback Queensland is pretty typical. The road includes sections covered in fine red dust called “Bull Dust” and these sections are particularly hazardous when vehicles meet and the dust obscures vision … just another reason to be vigilant when driving in the outback of Australia!!
