Adam Teale: News From Above

some ants from Kanchanaburi - munching out on some moths they’d caught

music: Bob Brozman - ’some sort of Space Age Cowboy music’

The epic video Cary & I (with a lot of Dad’s effort) put together way back in 1997 of almost everyone in our school year at Telopea Park High School, Canberra, A.C.T. Australia.

Big thanks to Dad for holding on to the tape!!

If anyone would like a DVD just let me know and I’ll put it in the mail

Last weekend I managed to escape work for a few days and get away to Koh Chang, Thailand, with Lisa and Nic (visiting on their ways to the rest of the world from australia). On one of the days we hired some scooters and spent the day burning around the island.

I’ll definitely be doing this again!

Mai’s finally got off his ass and put some of his cool content online - via viddler.com!

This is a great clip of the Amphawa Market - the floating markets in/near Bangkok.

Nice to hear he’s used a bit of a Bob Brozman & Rene Lacaille in there!

Nice work Khun Mai!

After the great times in France I managed to get down to Phuket the day after I got back to Thailand. I met up with Ben and Salvo who had been travelling down Krabbi way for a few days. We saw one of the best fireworks shows I have ever seen!

Will get some photos up soon

just a little clip to show/prove that I actually skied in France. Here is Bec and I ‘extremeing’ it up/down the mountains of Montriond. Kickass camera work by fellow extreme snow man Jez! Keep an eye out for my mass airtime!

Tim and i experimented with mounting a chrome / mirror ball to a video camera.
We were thinking about if it would be possible to use the image as some sort of reflection to map to a car’s reflection in 2D.
Anyway, its all low res, but pretty interesting to look at.

The element shot:

Then after a polar to rectangular conversion:

a clip from my phone chasing down Nick Barton on a motorbike taxi

Nick seems to hold on far better than I - and the bull is a lot more hostile:

Here’s a quick vid of where I went to the other day:
