The stock backpack is kind of plain looking. But at the same time it still needs to be able to hold the cargo container. So, recessed details it is.

Circa 3:50PM. After our light harp demonstration today for a class on tangible user interfaces I realized that there was a bunch of strange stuff in my backpack.

Crumpler Belly backpack, size L, in orange/white. This is a model not sold in the USA (I bought it from a store in the UK). It is an extremely well made backpack that will surely last a very, very long time. The quality of the materials is first rate. The shape and two-tone appearance is pleasingly unusual.

 

My "day pack" sized backpack of 15+ years finally had it and so I began my search for a replacement. There are SO MANY choices out there today, it's mind boggling. I had a hard time finding something that I liked for combined visual appeal, great utility, comfortable design, and solid quality, all at a reasonable price. A friend of mine tipped me off to a company named "Crumpler", which I'd seen once before but thought they only did small bags, like ones for cameras. They have a rather limited backpack line here in the USA, most of which are meant to carry cameras and then reconfigure for carrying other items if you wish. But in Europe, they have a number of other designs that you cannot get in the USA. The "Belly" is one of them. Weird name, I know. "Hey, check this out--I've got a belly on my back!" ;-)

 

Thankfully I found a source in the UK that could ship to the USA. And I happened to catch them with a great discount, as the Belly model has been discontinued. So, despite the high overseas shipping cost, I still got a great deal. The "orange/white" scheme was the only color left in size L (the M-medium size was just a little too small for what I wanted). It took me a while to warm up to the orange/white scheme as I thought the white was too much, but then I saw some customer photos on-line that showed the white to be more subdued. Thankfully, it is!

 

This is the kind of backpack I could see owning for the next 30 years, unless it gets lost or irreparably damaged somehow. It is so well constructed, that with decent care it should last a lifetime. It's a very distinctive style you just don't see anywhere else, and I've never seen this color combination before. Not that I'm a "unique style" monger, mind you. ;-)

 

Anyway, Crumpler is a personal bag company started by a man named Stuart Crumpler, in Australia. Go to their website to read up on the guy and the company back story. It's pretty neat. And the founder seems to be still actively involved with the designs.

A small excercise in off-camera flash. The ribbon on the backpack is the St. George's ribbon — one of the most recognized and respected symbols of military valor in Russia. (More info: Russia Honors War Heroes as May 9th Approaches)

A rare portrait. The topic of how to carry your camera gear while backpacking is one of endless discussion among photographers... what to take and where to put it. I've chosen to go with the "Crumpler" photo bag which grants quick and easy access to my camera and two lenses. It can get a bit tiring on longer days, but is still worth it.

How much does your life weigh? Imagine for a second that you're carrying a backpack. I want you to pack it with all the stuff that you have in your life... you start with the little things. The shelves, the drawers, the knickknacks, then you start adding larger stuff. Clothes, tabletop appliances, lamps, your TV... the backpack should be getting pretty heavy now. You go bigger. Your couch, your car, your home... I want you to stuff it all into that backpack. Now I want you to fill it with people. Start with casual acquaintances, friends of friends, folks around the office... and then you move into the people you trust with your most intimate secrets. Your brothers, your sisters, your children, your parents and finally your husband, your wife, your boyfriend, your girlfriend. You get them into that backpack, feel the weight of that bag. Make no mistake your relationships are the heaviest components in your life. All those negotiations and arguments and secrets, the compromises. The slower we move the faster we die. Make no mistake, moving is living. Some animals were meant to carry each other to live symbiotically over a lifetime. Star crossed lovers, monogamous swans. We are not swans. We are sharks.
