WHAT ARE YOU DOING TODAY (PICS)
-
Wu-tang! Again and again. That's sweet.

You're a good man, @Tago-Mago - that's a kind offer.
To be honest, I don't know any of their albums. I could have gone to any of the shows, but I chose the debut because Kid Koala is also playing.

Local center has a Star Wars display in town. Had to check it out. Meh... Discounted tickets are a must. If you ever wondered how tall I am, Darth Vader, life size is in the pic just about 2ft away from me

I caught an event at the Sydney Film Festival on Saturday: George Miller and Hideo Kojima in conversation.
I'd seen it advertised, and I wanted to go, but I live 670 km (about 420 miles) from Sydney, and I have a dog, which makes spontaneous trips difficult. I dithered, and when I went to book it a day later, it had sold out.
I signed up to be informed about available tickets, and didn't expect to hear back. A few weeks ago, there was a very small release. I clicked the link immediately and there were twelve. I refreshed my browser to see what seats were available, and it was down to four. I managed to get one.
Kojima and Miller are friends. Kojima said that the original Mad Max metaphorically beat him up and made him want to be a film director. He didn't have the opportunity in eighties Japan, so he went into the games industry instead.
Miller came over as incredibly erudite. He would bounce between discussions of film grammar, anthropology, and theories of storytelling. I want to kidnap him so that I can pick his brain.

At our cabin. Our dear daughter was traveling to Iceland today. Fly fishing was of course in our agenda. But big wind. Constant. So it is not actually. So waiting. watching. And easy passivity. Am good at that. Not my wife. So she started taking pictures of everything and anything. Including me...
Cheers guys.
