Bootz & Burma - Round Seven

June 21st, 2006

Here is Bootz reading some Dr. Seuss to Soledad, who is mostly covered up by blankets. During the day, he reads literature related to the political situation in Burma, but the tedium invariably leads him to read light-hearted stuff in the wee hours.

Again, the full video playlist uploaded thus far is on YouTube, and the photo gallery is on Flickr.

Bootz & Burma - Round Six

June 20th, 2006

Stopped by for a bit before work today.

I can’t imagine how tired he is. He still seems to have energy, though.

Bootz & Burma - Round Five

June 19th, 2006

I can’t imagine how exhausted Bootz is, as I have slept and I’m totally fried. I stopped by this evening for a couple of hours.

Stay tuned…

Bootz & Burma - Round Four

June 19th, 2006

This was a fun night/morning. Dave Wake, Holly, Dena Aronson and Kathleen were present, among others. Naomi, Daav & I jammed some guitar. Enjoy the videos of the night/morning below:

Me arriving just before midnight…

Daav Wakay & Bootz read Monty Python excertps. Quite amusing.

Here’s a good one of Rachel & Bootz alternating words…

More to come…

Bootz & Burma - Round Three

June 18th, 2006

When I visited Future Green today, I found out Bootz had slept for 1.5 hours at some point the previous evening, and he was looking better rested. Again, there were many people present, some of whom had known him his whole life, and it was a festive event. As usual, we took great pains to make sure he was not only paying attention to the task at hand, but not getting bored or tired.

The video below is of me balancing a Tibetan singing bowl on Bootz’s head, and what transpired thereafter:

And, in case anyone is interested in watching other videos of this event, I’ve got a playlist set up at YouTube.
