This post sums up my approach to my work pretty well: Life as Coffee.

Google Maps Street-Level View
Aww… it’s my jeep, nestled next to the Hansen Family Van at our abode in Austin, TX. Eerily enough, you can find this photo yourself by clicking here. I guess Google’s been sending vans around with cameras on the roof, documenting city streets across America. Now you too can stalk your friends from the comfort of your living room…
This photo would’ve been taken between August and November of last year, while I studied at the Piko Fellowship with Chris Hansen.

Vancouver Weather
The weather this weekend reminds me of an early Sunday only three weeks ago. Davies and I woke to piles of snow on the mountains, too good to resist. We hopped in my Jeep, put it in 4×4, and headed for Grouse Mountain (which neither of us had skiied). We slushed through a parking lot buried in snow, piled up the tram and enjoyed a day of freshies in steep, new terrain.
Taken with the Chris CrappyCam 2000, aka his Sony cell phone
At day’s end back down the tram, the parking lot was bare, the sun was out, people were walking their dogs.
And how else do you cap off a classic Vancouver day? With a fine meal of course… after a crisp view of the ocean, bathing in the sun.
Ah, Vancouver…
How does the world change when we evolve from a culture of production, to a culture of innovation? We Think.

Attacks in Rwanda
Attacks in Rwanda during the commemoration of the genocide… Stuff like this is a sign of how complex and ongoing the rebuilding process is, and by correlation, how difficult it is to convey the story of what’s going on there accurately and clearly. This if the first attacks I’ve heard of since starting my film. Hopefully it’s the last…

I Saw What I Saw
Sara Groves… she’s not someone I’d heard of, but this video about Rwanda is quite beautiful. It describes well how I feel about Rwanda, and the emotion inside visiting a place like that for the first time, full of contradictions.
