Tuesday, September 27th, 2011

The Busking Project have travelled the world in search of the world’s street art, finding the beauty in each of the people they meet, recording it, editing it, then sharing it for the world to see. With 114 high definition videos, they certainly have a beautiful collection of interesting and inspiring people, like the Hong Kong Rose Sculptor.

They are interested in the discussion of what it means to be a street performer and are interviewing anyone they can to find a wide variety of opinions and ideas about what it means to busk.

This is awesome. Tricks? Techniques? Who cares, how weird is it to get a hula hoop point of view?

Like:

My entire world consists of this woman and she keeps rolling around inside of me. Weird. I definitely haven’t had any dreams like that. I feel like a hamster ball… Like I’m the hamster ball, and the woman is the hamster. But we’re not on a journey, we’re just standing there. Weird. Anyway.

Thai Iced Tea (awesome pouring skills)

Graceful display of pouring techniques from the Chatuchak Weekend Market in Thailand.

From youtube:

Watch in HD!!! Largest Market in Thailand that covers 35 acres which sits in the Bangkok metropolitan area. It contains upwards of 5,000 stalls and this is just one of them where these guys make great Thai iced tea…
*edit
In Malaysia its called Teh Tarik. I have been getting various emails from different people stating this practice of making tea like this is actually from Malaysia. Many locals when I visited this market just stated it was Thai iced tea, I appreciate everyone’s feedback on this

 

thanks my buddy Mark from Portland for the link ;) Mark is heading up for a visit to MADSKILLZ VANCOUVER happening next weekend. woot woot.
