Knowledge Totem Pole carved by Coast Salish artist Cicero August, British Columbia Parliament Buildings, Victoria, British Columbia.
The last few days have been a flurry of activity with building on the river and wet lands. But, in between I have gone to a bunch of new places and back to some of my favorite venues.
Xavier & I love to salsa. So we did a search and wham, we found >Latin Palace Dance Club. Couples were dancing in dressy attire to wonderful salsa music. Wearing a tuxedo without a shirt and me in a short cocktail dress, it so reminded Xavier & me of Miami clubs.
A stopover at Organica to catch the last hour of DJ Qee's set woke us up with a nice psy jolt! So good to hear Qee's dynamic sounds and see old friends.
A brand new club called Fear FM sent me a tp. I got to meet owner/builder Cypher Webb. Beautifully built by Cypher, he was also spinning an awesome set of hardstyle and goth rock. I had a blast there. Cypher is also recruiting DJ's so peeps, give him a shout!
It was so late on Thursday night (Fri morn?) that I just had to stop off and say hi to DJ Xavi at The Cave. Owner Tasty Hax was there, too. I run into her at every party!
Friday afternoon, I got a tp from one of the builders. I ended up at Blackhearts 80's club. I love the funkiness of this club. So simple. It feels like a rock n roll club. Halloween was coming and the Pillsbury Dough Boy showed up! LOL!
Late night, and Xavier & I headed for DJ Nebulae's set at Piranha. Xavi loves this club. He set his JMD Effects hud on and we were in psy heaven. We always have fun at Shad's club!
In between all the craziness, I hit New Berlin's Electro Smog. Gee... I can't seem to get enough of this place. Zap Hax was hosting and DJ djleftydc Denja was spinning a sweet set of tunes.
Another new place I landed upon was Le Ghetto Hype. This is a fun club of alternative and eclectic tunes. Owner DJ Frederick Neberle & partner ARNAUD Mureaux have built a wonderful place to hang.
Off to Divaz Lounge! DJ 8wall Wrigglesworth just sent me a tp! OMG, 8wall is spinning at Divaz.
I met 8wall at Dance Island last year and then over at Nutrie. He spins a very chill set of house and minimal tunes.
But, the highlight of my night was at Old Factory listening to DJ Jeangilles Anthony. This frenchman is an artist. Beautiful industrial noise layered with a hardstyle beat... then transcending into experimental music... psychedelic experimental noise. LOL! and I fell asleep there... just couldn't leave!
Late night on Friday, Xavier and I ended up at DJ Digital Francis' Le Pardis de Digital Nation. It was an after party and Digi was spinning. Xavi & Digi started a "stump me" game. I think Digital was very impressed with Xavier's musical knowledge. They bro-downed the entire night leaving me and DJ Snowkitty dumbfounded... 'cause neither of us knew any of the tunes. LOL! I think Xavier has a new favorite dj now!
Showing someone their political/family orientation which they either don't know or have lost touch with. I simplify it to conservative or liberal. Red for conservative and blue for liberal, kind of like the current --blue state/Democrat -- red state/Republican-- description. I also like the --right brain/blue -- left brain/red --orientation descriptions if you are familiar with those from psychology.
This self knowledge would help us not to more deeply ingrain our prejudices in futile conflicts. For example, if a person knows they are more conservative they know that they must restrain their inclination to attack those that have strengths or weaknesses in the liberal vein. That could mean being less critical of new ideas. It could mean being less critical of more free ideas of personal behavior. Another common and more serious problem is overreacting to violations of legislated law or other traditional doctrines. For closer views see: flickr.com/photos/21702692@N05/2101757001/

Door on the left is where the tour exited. There's a door/ office in the middle which was active for staff.
-----
I guess like many night photographers, the idea of finding, exploring and shooting a great tunnel really appeals. This tour, organised by TfL (Transport for London), could've gone a long way to addressing that but for their insane decision to ban DSLRs from the station.
You might already have read about it, it's been trending on twitter and there's a lot of negative stories on various photography forums.
Here's the tale, with a little bit of opinion thrown in.
TfL uses the location for training and alongside that they manage to fit in some film location work. Like, it's the station that appeared in V for Vendetta and Die Another Day. Generally, though, it's closed to the public.
When the idea of tours was thrown around in the TfL office, someone obviously twigged that tours without photography would be a non-starter. The visitors on location backed that up, with every couple- and it was mostly couples- on our tour carrying at least one imaging device. At the same time, the corporate bods must've figured that with photo sharing at a high, lots of high quality images floating around the web would do harm to future tours. Why does that matter? £20/ ticket x 2500 tickets (TfL stats) makes quite a compelling argument.
So, what to do? A ban on DSLRs is the only option that's logistically possible to enforce but with very capable compact-looking cameras available like the M9 (haha) or the more realistic X100/ PEN/ GF1 units it doesn't stack up.
On location, the notices (and staff) gave little away, claiming the DSLR ban was due to "their combination of high-quality sensor and high resolution". A TfL employee I spoke to after the tour said it was due to them wanting to disallow urbexers from high quality images which could provide information about access points for illicit entry.
Subsequently, in a statement to The Verge TfL has expanded their actions saying: "there was not a ban on taking photos during tours. However, there were restrictions on professional cameras and tripods because we were concerned that people using them could delay the tours for others, as it was a very tight schedule."
Smacks of an excuse to me.
First of all DSLRs are de rigeur these days, used as an everyday imaging device by countless people. That doesn't mean that every DSLR user is an avid photographer seeking to get the cleanest possible shot at great lengths.
Discount the guys who bought a DSLR because that's what the man in the shop said they should buy and you're left with those who bought one consciously, to record great pictures. Within that group there will be users who are unable to approach a situation pragmatically; who don't see the potential in live documentary or abstraction, but these guys will be far outnumbered by those who can quickly line up their shot in the knowledge that an errant leg, arm or head can be dealt with in PP.
In the absence of owning a compact I had it in mind to take the D300 w/ 35mm f/2 and bluff 'n' blag my way through. Mother-in-law came to the rescue (how often can you say that?) with her Sony CyberShot thingy, the results from which are what you're seeing here.
Given their inferior quality, I felt compelled to upload my images in their highest resolution... also thought it might be a good time to experiment with the whole Creative Commons licensing model...
Feel free to download and share as you deem fit - know any urbexers? :)

As part of the required course knowledge pupils need to be able to outline the process involved in taking a square wooden blank and preparing it for turning between centres. These pictures depict that process chronologically.
Stage 1 * Preparation of wooden blank. Cut to size. Sand square. Mark across diagonals. Centre punch the centre point. Use spring dividers to mark circumference. Repeat on other end.
Stage 2 * Plane off corners down to circumference line. This takes cross section from square to octagon. This reduces force on cutting toll in initial prep of blank. Mount between fork [driven] centre and dead [or live ] centre at tailstock end. Apply grease a dead centre end. apply force from tailstock end to force fork into material at driven end. Adjust toolstock height to suit. Check for clearance.
Stage 3 * Roughout using scraper to diameter. Use combination of gouges and skew chisels to add beads and other decorative detailing as required. Ensure spindle speed is appropriate for material and cross section under consideration. Obey all safety instructions.

I must have been mad but the other guys who missed out wanted to go so I thought what the hell, lets go again and maybe capture something different. So thats what I did today.
A real time capsule but nature is taking back a lot of the rooms with full on decay and collapsed floors. Not to mention a shotgun wielding farmer and a bull roaming the enclosure to make matters worse. No chase today - bull was curiously watching us run away but did not decide to pursue.

Cuba-born and New York-based saxophonist and clarinet player Paquito D'Rivera has balanced a career in Latin jazz with commissions as a classical composer and appearances with symphony orchestras. Classical New Jersey wrote, "whether playing Bach or post-bop, D'Rivera's mastery of the instruments and [his] expressive capability is unquestionable." D'Rivera inherited his understanding of music from his father, Tito, a classical saxophonist and conductor. At the age of five, he began being tutored in musical theory by his father. Within a year, he was playing well enough to be paid as a musician. By the age of seven, he became the youngest musician to endorse a musical instrument (Selmer saxophones). Three years later, he performed with the National Theater Orchestra of Havana. Although he initially played soprano saxophone, D'Rivera switched to the alto after teaching himself to play via the book Jimmy Dorsey Saxophone Method: A School of Rhythmic Saxophone Playing. Strengthening his knowledge of music and playing techniques, D'Rivera began studying at the Havana Conservatory of Music in 1960. In 1965, he became a featured soloist with the Cuban National Symphony Orchestra. After playing with the Cuban Army Band, he joined pianist Chu Chu Valdez to found the Orchestra Cubana de Musica Moderna, and served as the band's conductor for two years. In 1973, he joined eight members of the Orchestra Cubana de Musica Moderna to form Irakere. The group, which fused jazz, rock, classical, and traditional Cuban music, became the first post-Castro Cuban group to sign with an American record label. Along with the band, D'Rivera toured the world and Irakere became a top-rated jazz ensemble. In 1979, the group joined American jazz and rock performers for a music festival, Havana Jam, that was recorded and released the following year. In 1981, D'Rivera defected from Cuba and moved to the United States. Before long, he was playing with such American musicians as Dizzy Gillespie, David Amram, and Mario Bauza. According to Bauza, D'Rivera is "the only musician I know on the scene playing the real Latin jazz, all others are playing Afro-Cuban jazz." D'Rivera's debut solo album, Blowin', released in June 1981, was followed by Mariel a year later. Time magazine wrote, "the bopped-up, romantic, salty and sensuous jazz that he makes recognizes no real political boundary. It has its roots equally in the hothouse Latin rhythms of his homeland and in the high flying horns of Charlie Parker, John Coltrane, and Lee Konitz." In 1988, D'Rivera was invited to become a charter member of Gillespie's 15-piece all-star group, the United Nations Orchestra. The same year, he was a guest soloist with the National Symphony Orchestra for their world premier performance of Roger Kellaway's David Street Blues at the John F. Kennedy Center. He continued to be involved with a variety of projects. In addition to performing with the Paquito D'Rivera Big Band, the Paquito D'Rivera Quintet, a chamber music group, Triangulo, and a calypso and salsa band, the Caribbean Jazz Project, he began to accept commissions to compose for chamber groups and orchestras. In 1989, he composed "New York Suite" for the Gerald Danovich Saxophone Quartet, and five years later, he composed "Aires Tropicales" for the Aspen Wind Quintet. The piece has subsequently been performed by at least four quintets. In 1997, D'Rivera's album Portraits of Cuba received a Grammy award as "Best Latin Jazz Performance." During the summer of 1999, he collaborated with Germany's Chamber Orchestra Werneck in a series of programs, D'Rivera Meets Mozart. D'Rivera was artist-in-residence for the New Jersey Performing Arts Commission and artistic director in charge of jazz programming for the New Jersey Chamber Music Society. His autobiography, My Saxual Life, was published by the Spanish book publisher Seix Barral, along with a novel, En Tus Brazos Morenos, scheduled to follow shortly afterwards. The album Live at the Blue Note appeared in the spring of 2000, and Habanera followed in early 2001. In 2001, D'Rivera released the Clarinetist, Vol. 1, his first recording to rely exclusively on the strengths of its woodwind namesake. 2002 saw the release of Brazilian Dreams, a live recording featuring the New York Voices and trumpeter Claudio Roditi. It was followed by the swinging Big Band Time in 2003, Music of Both Worlds, Tribute to Cal Tjader and Riberas in 2004. and the Jazz Chamber Trio in 2005. ~ Craig Harris

I walk the countryside, its woods and ways
Armed with a little knowledge
Amidst a litter of ignorance
The black-arrow blackbird
Fletches across the path, its
Yellow beacon-bill, a sharp contrast
To the dark leafy way
I climb over elms leveled by the windage
Of thirty-some rook’s nests
Into the graveyard
Where only the ash trees rise and
Grey headstones reel crazily
Over a sea of sunken bones
Deer prints in Viner’s mud, down Old Denaby
What looks like otter’s, too
Cormorants gargoyle me
From flooded fence-posts
Strangers to my youth
Under one of the greatest viaducts in Britain
Long unused by the steam-trains hauling limestone
From the shining quarry
I find the blue bricks aerosoled art
Unsigned archways highlighted by
Slanting sunlight in a striking
Shock of the new that stuns me
Beneath the central span, the sinuous Don
Quietly winds through a Sylvanian landscape
Beckoning me homeward to its sweetened waters
Encroaching willows whisper the promise
"We’re not drinking the poison you knew,
The foul sewer your mother feared, come be
Baptised a South-Yorkshireman again”
It’s so appealing this quixotic Don silting at the feet
Of old steel mills and mine-workings re-forged to
Retail worlds and sports centres
And then there’s its sibling Dearne reborn into
A trout-stream, industrial muck forgotten
De-toxed, its bastard birth abandoned
A sudden wind riffles my notebook thumbing the
Poetry over to the fright of a blank page
I drop it carelessly onto the wet earth
Where its leaves are dampened like enthusiasm
This in the lover’s grove where
Couples used to lie on beds of shiny
Mermaid’s hair grass
Those secret hollows are gone, instead
Dirt tracks scar, tooled by swarms of
Mini-motorbikes
The once emerald green
Burned like tide-stranded
Kelp, on an unloved shore
Now pods of flesh-pierced adolescents squat
Licking spliff papers, swearing with every
Ungrammatical sentence
And this corner of my youth where old men used
To deg* on young love is now a desecrated temple.

Top left is the local flix where I had my first date at 8yrs old with Janet a stunning blond. I remember giving her chocolate cigarettes. Didn't enjoy much of the film, just lots of chocolatey kisses. The rock formation, we used as a stone slide, having to employ greaseproof bread-paper between trousers and limestone to achieve any kind of velocity ! The pit-wheel is the one that used to lower me into the coal seams of South Yorkshire.

Vie difficile de Francisco Madero. Dans la cohue de l'univers le puzzle de l'existence de Francisco Madero s'organise peu à peu.
Prologue: la pensée fixe ses propres limites - les cruautés des hommes dépendent de leurs sens. La vérité n'est ni pessimiste ni optimiste; Francisco Madero est venu au monde le jour où les feuilles commençaient à tomber. Astrologie: se dit du cancer.
Physique: une profonde peine dans le regard, un nez crochu, une crinière brillante de gel, retombant sur son nez. Ses traits sont assez ingrats… une peau de couleur saine; un grand front couleur ivoire… de saines dents blanches.
Sentiments: son amitié avec Salvador Novo est fragile, elle s'appuie davantage sur le passé que sur la confiance dans le présent… passe de longues heures avec François Couperin.
Goûts: a un amour aliéné pour les ombres. Ne connaît qu'un seul livre: "Autobiographie érotique" de Paul Benderson, la musique de François Couperin lui procure d'immenses plaisirs, Francisco Madero aime par dessus tout la peinture et spécialement “Le Portrait d'Émilie Flöge” de Gustave Klimt; Francisco Madero peut passer des heures à réfléchir sur des locutions anglaises comme "no knowledge" ou "woman nothing".
Rêves: c'est au détroit de Gibraltar que Francisco Madero se sent le mieux.
Haines: Francisco Madero a toujours refusé de rencontrer Oriane Proust.
Métier: pour Francisco Madero l'art est la seule chose qui puisse compter dans une existence.
Généralités: a épuisé toutes les possibilité érotiques de Salamis.
N'a qu'un enfant, qu'il ne voit presque plus depuis qu'il fait ses études - n'a jamais rien pu inventer. Francisco Madero écrit des pièces vocales pour Michael Howe.
Pensée: une phrase d'Emma Fournier lui revient en tête : "personne ne ressemble assez à un autre pour que l'on se comprenne tout à fait".
