    Shoeboat Films Presents: The Strike Movie

    FOR ALL CARNIES: In case you haven’t heard yet, or didn’t get the email from Tanya, Cameron has finished the “Strike” movie, so the final release is available now! Here’s what Cameron has to say:

    The full, recently completed ‘Strike’ movie is now AVAILABLE TO BUY for 15.00 UK pounds. One hour long, this also includes limited edition picture disk and box, deleted scenes and full packaging and postage. Due to its length, political nature and amount of work that has gone into it – this will NOT be available on YouTube as part of the Shoeboat Films ‘Carnivology’ series and is only available exclusively to World Carnival staff as a souvenir of the event. Other large Carnivology movies will follow if there is sufficient demand.

    If you want to buy a copy of this DVD please email Cameron and he will reply with details on how to make payment and will organize the delivery for those who choose to buy a limited copy of ‘Strike’.

    Let’s support Cameron and hope he will produce some more fine movies in the future!

  • Spring in Beijing

    Spring in Beijing

    For other a month now, even more actually, since the end of the Chinese New Year I’ve been wasting my time in Beijing. Yeah, back in China!

    This post is not about me and what I am doing here, but about the spring time. After the month of March with weather changing from warm to cold and vice versa, we finally get the true spring time. Oh, by the way, a friend of mine from Japan told me, they call this type of weather ä¸?å¯?å??温 -ã??san kan shi on, literally meaning “three cold four warm” and referring to three cold days followed by four warm and so on.

    Beijing is actually looking very nice during spring with all the trees in blossom and if you get lucky to see a cloudless day – even better! If you have time I would strongly advise you to forget about everything and head to the nearest park. There’s one thing I really like in Beijing and this is parks – clean and amazingly well arranged. Feng-shui masters must have worked well before designing all these parks, I mean, when entering one of these hundred years old parks you feel GOOD! And I’ve been to one yesterday myself, the Ritan park, they say it’s one of the oldest in Beijing – had a great time!

    Enjoy your spring – wherever you are in the Northern Hemisphere!
