My man, Daniel Gunthorpe shows off all his research on poi manipulation in one take. (And then adds some more on the end.) He’s studying at Circoarts in NZ, and he is also a bit good at triple contact staff. Can’t wait to blog that.

He’s all about the parallel same-time!

Around the time of the Firedrums Festival in Santa Cruz, California, The Vulcan in Oakland, California was flooded with visitors from all around the world. There were even more people at the Vulcan than seen in this video.  So you should watch for the next one —> here

A long-awaited video from Costa Rica featuring Burning Dan, Alien Jon, Baz, and Nick Playpoi spinning to the music of Reza Moosavi. Amazingly high quality cinematography and video editing skills by Matthew Boyd If Baraka were a poi video, it would look like this

Sa is an italian poi manipulator. He’s 20 and started his juggling path all alone only 3 years ago; after meeting Ronan he has decided to study and find new poi and contact manipulation forms. He lives in Milan.

This is his youtube channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/Santiagopoi

Glad to see more researchers with poi.

This is a nicely put together small documentary that I would like to see as a large one on object manipulation in general. It features interviews with a few spinners and jugglers from the San Francisco Bay Area of California,  on their favorite subject of fire and object manipulation.

I especially like Jordan’s realization about his life. : )

Everyone at the Vulcan wishing you a merry Christmas from “scenic” East Oakland, California. Featuring Brian Thompson and Matt McCorkle of Code RED: Circus Conspiracy, who you may know from a previous post on MoM for their Isolation Hoop Report of January 2009. This is the third video of the series to say happy holidays, made by Noel Yee featured in his Christmas Partner poi video. (more…)
