Photographing Jugglers – my journey

12th
Aug. × ’10

Inspired by an email, I’ve decided to share a bit about taking photographs of jugglers.

My website grew into one of the most popular juggling website over the next [...]

Every EJC 2010 photo with links to high resolution versions.

2nd
Aug. × ’10

Many people on Facebook and elsewhere are asking for full resolution versions of my EJC photos. The best way to view the photos quickly is by using Facebook, as that way you can see who is tagged in each photo. The other way is to go to each individual blog post, and scroll through them [...]

“This (new song for May)” – a new song for May

29th
May. × ’10

Edit: I think youtube converted the bitrate of the music in this video badly, and the sound suffers. Next time I’ll upload a 41,000 video instead of a 48,000 video. In my list of 50 goals and plans for 2010 I wrote “6.1 Write an album’s-worth of new songs and record them by the end [...]

Social Venn

18th
May. × ’10

Many people are talking about privacy issues on Facebook, and I agree with most of their points. I’m not unhappy with Facebook or any privacy issues, because I’ve always considered everything I do or say or put online to be 100% public immediately. I’ve always used my own name when signing up to any internet [...]

24th
Mar. × ’10

This is the intro episode of a new podcast project I’m planning to do. The truth is that I’ve already recorded a dozen episodes of the podcast, and could have published them weeks ago, but I’ve only just got round to recording the “first” episode. I guess when I’m at home I’m not in travel-mode, [...]

Here’s what I plan to do in 2010. 1 – Work and travel: 1.1 – Keep working on cruise ships, though structuring the my time away better than last year to maximize time in Berlin/with friends/doing my own thing. 1.2 – [...]

Jan. × ’10

After working hard at my chosen career for the past six years I’ve reached the point where I have a surplus of time and money, so have to use both to achieve all the things I can while both at home and while traveling. And so, after making a list of all I’ve accomplished in [...]

19th
Oct. × ’09

Over at the diabolo.ca forum someone posted a video of diabolo act that I posted here a few weeks ago. After adding a bit about the history of the routine, Marky J asked a good question: My show is isn’t really choreographed that tightly and the tricks I attempt normally depend on the crowd, conditions, [...]
