"L'esprit envahi de souvenirs et préoccupé par l'avenir perd la fraicheur de l'instant présent.Nous sommes alors incapables de reconnaitre la simplicité lumineuse de l'esprit qui est toujours présente derrière le rideau des pensées."

Matthieu Ricard

Oiseaux du paradis...

The Birds-of-Paradise Project reveals the astounding beauty of 39 of the most exquisitely specialized animals on earth. After 8 years and 18 expeditions to New Guinea, Australia, and nearby islands, Cornell Lab scientist Ed Scholes and National Geographic photojournalist Tim Laman succeeded in capturing images of all 39 species in the bird-of-paradise family for the first time ever. This trailer gives a sense of their monumental undertaking and the spectacular footage that resulted. Filmed by Tim Laman, Ed Scholes, and Eric Liner.

So cute !

La pluie...

Fais bécot !

Chasse neige dans le Jura..

Dans la vidéo, on va le voir fraiser à La Chaumusse, dans la rampe qui conduit au col de la Savine, sur le viaduc de Morbier, en gare de Morez, et enfin en gare de Saint Laurent en Grandvaux. A Morez, on le verra dégager les voies de service, et ensuite opérer une manœuvre de retournement pour repartir en direction de Saint Laurent.

Lancer de cailloux !

Baka Gbiné.

Mastered mix from the new album, Kopolo. Out Now! The Baka musicians from Gbiné have come a long way since the release of their last album Gati Bongo. Whereas none of them had ever performed outside their forest home before Gati Bongo was recorded, since it's release they have toured in UK, Belgium and Holland as well as around Cameroon and Congo. They have formed a tight rhythm section which melds with their polyphonic vocal harmonies to create their own unique style as can be heard on the new recording. Although there is now keen competition at Gbiné to play in the band, the rhythm section has become a fixed line-up of Sangowé Elvis on drum kit, Ndia Arbitre on percussion, Barma Jean-Marie on bass and Ndeké Norbert on rhythm guitar. Pelembir Dieudonné is still the most prolific of the song-writers and dynamic of the performers, but others are treading on his heels including his son Freddie (who can be seen singing on the video of "Ewoundo". Mbeh Prosper again provides most of the lead guitar with a bit of help here and there from Baka Beyond's Martin Cradick, who also recorded it all on location deep in the rainforest near the Cameroon-Congo border and mixed and produced it at The Vortex in UK. Although Baka Gbiné have been developing their performance of traditional music and dance, this album is another collection of contemporary guitar based songs guaranteed to get your body moving and your spirits rising. Gati Bongo has been in the iTunes World charts since its release back in 2006. It's sales have helped finance projects set up with the Baka at Gbiné and Global Music Exchange (http://www.1heart.org) which have really made a difference to the lives and social standing of the Baka. Every time Martin returns to Cameroon to continue work with the Baka he is asked when the next album will be ready. Well here's one track from it!

Emotion...

Jim Stenson, I found this video online, I did not film it but I thought it was so special I had to put a song behind it. To me, the female Lab is trying so hard to befriend the child, I believe this is the first time they met, I DONT KNOW. The boy is cautious but curious at the same time. The person who filmed the original contacted me in January 2012 She is the mom, her name is Ana and her sons name is Hernan, the dogs name is Himalaya. I kept Ana's laugh of amazement when the dog puts her paw on the boys shoulder as if to say, I love you, everything will be ok. FYI: I was told by a beautiful little DS girl that " God didn't make a mistake when he made me" She was a "Gift from God". I had to edit the video to fit the song but its all original content and BTW this is my first VIDEO edit. Im just sayin :) If you saw it once, check it out again. I think you'll like it. Much love to all who appreciate it for what it is. BTW you can find the original uncut version on here by searching, Haciendose amigos! Thanks Ana.
