Sanur, Bali

 Tarum Natural Dye Studio
 Roots and plants to make the dyes.

Boxes of bobbins...Looms to make fabric
 Outside the studio.

And Happy December 1st! Winter is so nice from a distance : P 

This first song is M83 - Run Into Flowers. It's an excellent song, partly because musically it is just right and so sweet, but also because it makes everything around me move in slow motion and feel like a movie when it's playing. It's like we're at a pivotal part of the movie, where nothing is changing but everything is changing; The sun just starts peeping out from under the clouds, wind picks up, birds fly by, for a few minutes it all just falls into place. Let me know if it has the same effect on you or if you think I need to go to the doc to get my head examined...

This next one is a little bit peppier...ah, who am I kidding, anything called Ready for the Weekend is probably packing a punch. This song is something I would've listened to a few years ago and then would've really started getting ready for the weekend (it's Wednesday at 7:30 AM), but instrumentally this song isn't quite as spastic and is something that can totally be digested and appreciated even at 7:30 in the morning (along with your second cup of coffee, sometimes we need that extra push)...

And for a "no fail win" from you guys here's Cold Cave's - Life Magazine which is totally rockin' on many levels! X

Sari Organic. 7:30 AM.  
You have to get there early to get the good seat and take in the mountainous views before they're closed off by the clouds. 
 Tacked photos cover some walls...
Sorry. I ate my bowl of fresh fruit, homemade yogurt, homemade bread and jam before I could pull the camera out. It's that good...
Full belly, he gets all of the leftovers...
 Canang Sari on the steps in front. Don't mind my shadow : )
Therapies Son - Rose Red Rose thanks to the tasteful ears of Transparent Records and Michael's iTunes: ) it's a weird video and totally awesome song!!

I just started listening to some of my old tunes again. Finally charged my iPod that has just been sitting around forever, and this magical tune - Au's rr vs. D from my brother Sean started playing...
