Fast Car, 20 years on
Fast Car
A refreshing take on Tracy Chapman's song
A refreshing take on Tracy Chapman's song
by a younger generation some 20 years later.
A concert version of the original song,
as relevant and poignant as it is today.

人生 光影
"All the variety, all the charm, all the beauty of life
are made up of light and shade."

都是由 光明和陰影 構成的

Learning: Schönau & Feldheim
Following the Chernobyl disaster a community around Schönau in Black Forest, Germany
decided to power on with solar or wind energy and sell the excess to the national grid.
Feldheim, one of many villages in Germany, not only has gone 100 percent
renewable in net consumption but that the village is completely off-grid.
Feldheim, one of many villages in Germany, not only has gone 100 percent
renewable in net consumption but that the village is completely off-grid.
However, the German government recently announced a 30% reduction in subsidies
to small energy producers, stifling similar green communities across the country.

Back, to the future..
While studying architecture at the University of Melbourne,
I participated as a volunteer in a UNESCO World Heritage project:
Vijayanagara Archeological Field Research
Hampi, Karnataka, India
Hampi, Karnataka, India
Two weeks in the field of ruins in what was
left of a once mighty Moghul Empire, Vijayanagara..
Surveying and recording every stone, detail and dilapidation,
understanding how a civilization once lived, thrived, and collapsed.
Little was I to comprehend
that journey into middle India was
the inflexion point deep in a young psyche
to guide and shape a life over the next 25 years.

Roast pork, home made in Melbourne
五香烧肉
That traditional, delicious roast pork with crunchy crackled skin and spiced layers that melt in your mouth, is easier to make than you think..
Simply turn it over and cut through the grid with a sharp knife..
If it takes you more than 30 minutes, I should invite you to dinner instead :o)
That traditional, delicious roast pork with crunchy crackled skin and spiced layers that melt in your mouth, is easier to make than you think..
- Ingredients: Belly pork, sea salt, five spice powder 五香粉 and olive oil.
- Turn over the belly pork, sliver the meat at 3x2cm grid, leaving the skin intact, attached.
- Mix sea salt with five spice powder, rub the mix over the meat and deeply into the grid.
- Turn pork over and lay onto baking paper, with skin up, and place into a baking tray.
- Spread olive oil generously and evenly over the skin.
- Pre-heat oven at 250°C with both grill and fan turned on.
- Position baking tray, with skin about 15~20cm directly below the top griller.
- Roasting time depends on size of serving - your eyes are the best to check..
- When the skin has crackled (like boiling with bubbles on the surface) and turned light brown, lower the heat down to ~200°C.
- When the skin turns dark brown, turn the grill off. Leave it for 10~15 minutes, turn the oven off.
Simply turn it over and cut through the grid with a sharp knife..
If it takes you more than 30 minutes, I should invite you to dinner instead :o)

Home.. Australia
I still call Australia home..
I've been to cities that never close down
from New York to Rio and old London town
But no matter how far or how wide I roam
I still call Australia home
I'm always traveling, I love being free
and so I keep leaving the sun and the sea.
But my heart lies waiting over the foam
I still call Australia home
All the sons and daughters spinning 'round the world
away from their families and friends
But as the world gets older and colder
it's good to know where your journey ends
Someday we'll all be together once more
when all of the ships come back to the shore
I realize something I've always known
I still call Australia, I still call Australia
I still call Australia home..
But as the world gets older and colder
it's good to know where your journey ends
Someday we'll all be together once more
when all of the ships come back to the shore
I realize something I've always known
I still call Australia, I still call Australia
I still call Australia home..

轉折點
If there were turning points in life
where one answers a calling,
2007 was a determinant.
Out there walkabout in the field,
site survey in the first project for the
UNFCCC Clean Development Mechanism.
