Fortnightly findings from the Editor in Chief.
Hello,
Woah, Adelaide, that was big…
Just got back from 10 hectic days in Adelaide documenting Gravity & Other Myths with their new show ‘Out of Chaos’ as well as a bunch of other shows and catching up with many friends old & new from the different sub-tribes of our subculture – shout out to all those, I didn’t get to catch up with.
Oh and there’s also now a whole lot of crew representing with CC merch, Big Ups!
I’ll tell you one thing, its hard to go to bed early!
Here are my fortnightly findings:
Found Contentment Through:
A quiet solo sit down/coffee moment during the mayhem.I’m a long black guy. I might live in Byron Shire, hipster capital of Australia but I don’t do almond, soy, oat, cashew, coconut, rice, lactose-free, skim, full cream or any other kind of milk nor do I drink it out of a terracotta avocado.
The Joy of:
My own bed.
* this may not be my own bedroom……..or maybe it is!
The satisfaction of:
Gravity and Other Myths
Realising you have nailed a photo shoot of a live show when you thought you mightn’t of. Sometimes you question whether you have ‘it in the bag’. I shot Gravity & Other Myths new show ‘Out of Chaos’ last week and got to the end of it asking that question, its satisfying when you then go through the shots and realise it is in fact ‘in the bag’.
Feeling gratitude for:
My dear old familia for having me on their couch for 10 days in the midst of their busiest month of the year – thank you T& K!
The lesson learnt:
Sleeping on someone’s couch isn’t the best way to get 8 hrs sleep especially when it’s so hard to go to bed early!
Reminded that:
There are so many shows, so many tickets to be sold!
Inspired by:
All the amazing artists, producers and crew inhabiting the Fringe Festivals.
Recently Revisited:
And on that note….
As always make sure you get off your computer, check out live shows and try and take a moment to check in with yourself and each other in real life,
Peace & respect,
Hamish
