Check out Xperience's video for his song 60/40, partly shot at Last Word Books!


Hell yeah, now he's on tour with Macklemore.

Maybe they'll make our bookstore famous-er!

Stoked they put Don't Stop Printing's post-apocalyptic graffiti boom-box in at the end.

MotorhomeDiaries.com


Met these kids at the Seattle Anarchist Book Fair a few weeks back and wanted to throw a link up to their very interesting project. That and I'm totally envious. Anyone want to donate an awesome video camera to me and my ongoing projects?

From their site:

"The Motorhome Diaries is the story of three friends, Jason Talley, Pete Eyre & Adam Mueller, who took to the road in early 2009 to search for freedom in America in their motorhome they call MARV. Along the way they talk with the growing number of people who advocate a voluntary society – one where government violence is replaced by freedom and peace.

Driving from the urban jungles to picturesque small towns and everywhere in-between, they they cover the historic shift in power from individuals to the government and the growing movement of those who are fighting back to reclaim their freedom.

They consider their project to be a near real-time documentary since they will post quickly edited videos online so their trip can be viewed on MotorhomeDiaries.com. There, you can read their frequently posted content. Videos, photos and media will be posted rapid fire.

If you would like to support or meet up with Jason, Pete and Adam along the way, please e-mail them."

Parkour

TJ just showed me this, though I'd loosely heard of it before and grew up practicing a form of it in the woods around my cabin. Hell, TJ and I were doing it on lava rocks up a Hawaiian riverbed this afternoon. I really want to train my girls in this most practical artform. What amazing body movement and relation to setting. I'm impressed. Seems like a good way for urban youth to work out aggression in a positive way. Wish I was twelve again.

from wikipedia
(Le) Parkour (sometimes abbreviated to PK) or l'art du déplacement[1] (English: the art of movement) is a physical art of French origin, the aim of which is to move from point A to point B as efficiently and quickly as possible, using principally the abilities of the human body.[2] It is meant to help one overcome obstacles, which can be anything in the surrounding environment — from branches and rocks to rails and concrete walls — so parkour can be practiced in both rural and urban areas. Male parkour practitioners are recognized as traceurs and female as traceuses.[3]
