BY LUCIENGREY ON AUGUST 7, 2017 • ( LEAVE A COMMENT ) The White Building or Bodeng in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. This shot is a panorama from the roof, it was the first time I was in the building and I was helping with the sound on a short documentary. This was the end nearest to Aeon Mall, the end which…
When was the last time you saw something good on television? Over here television is made up of fifty percent docu-soap crap, forty percent cheaply made american imports and the rest is somewhere between ok and decent. Good is not an adjective I’ve been able to use for a long time while talking about television.…
There has been a lot of talk about the new president of the Philippines and he really is a bit of an enigma, many people are coming out strongly on one side or the other so let’s have a little look at what’s really going on here, if we can. I recently read an article…

I can watch something unfold before me and yet when I discuss this with the person by my side they have experienced it…
Nothing feels as good as expertly placing a needle on a good piece of vinyl, hearing the carefully muted thud and the slight crackle as your childhood ebbed away. I bet it was something hip. ‘Madchester EP’ by The Mondays or the ‘Dirty’ by Sonic Youth? Maybe you were cool as fig rolls and had…
Time is a strange concept really, I gave it bit of thought quite a few years ago then left it alone. What I came to is probably not original but Im sure it can be thought about anyway. You see I know there are both cyclical and linear theories of time but I was thinking…
