40 minute video accompanying the Jewels CD, which explains how Einstürzende Neubauten uses a card system called Dave to help them with strategies for developing new songs.
Also the bit at 5’29” is genius – playing a spring with a leather glove gaffer taped to a drill!

This is a view of the road into Rakaia Gorge, which leads into where that previous Planet Dust photo was taken.
It’s funny, there is a small town not far from here called WIND WHISTLE and for good reason. The West Coast gets pounded by Nor Westers, which dump all their rain on the West Coast and then dry warm gale-force winds blast through the back country and out on to the Canterbury Plains. As a kid I knew not to cause trouble during a Nor Wester as the dry conditions meant everyone has a short fuse!
But it also creates some beautiful cloud formations, know as the Nor West Arch….
This is an iPhone photo from back out on the plains:
repost, with next update – tonights sunset
the sun disappeared behind distant clouds before it hit the horizon….
Will wait for a clear sunset before I update the charty map thing in the original post

Peketa, Kaikoura #longexposure last week…
I had to wait ages/keep shooting to get a shot without truck lights in shot.
The light trail in this shot is due to a wave almost catching me! I was on the waters edge and had to grab the tripod & camera & run, while the shutter was still open… I love shooting at night – planning to do a lot more of it.
