a fun little concert here in Indonesia….sexy ladies….and men and tranvestites dancing together……HOT HOT HOT…not to mention the music
me enjoying:
performance here:
Octora – an artist from central Java – did a “make-up” workshop during her residency at Cemeti. Megan and I were particpants…..had alot of fun. The goal of the workshop was to have the other partner “make-you-up”. So Megan did my make-up while I did hers…as you can see we had very different intentions for the other..but for some reason the one thing we had in common was that we looked like Trannies -Â you be the judge. after talking with Octora…turns out she wanted to create an “intimacy” between the partners (this is putting it in a nutshell) – very much reminded me of my pal Jenifer’s video piece “Inappropriate”. more info on Octora and the residency – click here
uh – my dream come true. once we checked into the Prambanan – much better guest house – we rented a motorbike……PINK Lightening. She’s so cool. have to say – it feels much more safer riding in the chaos of Jogja traffic than riding in the streets of SF..never the less..I think i’ll be owning a motorbike of sorts (vespa, motorcycle, scooter, etc.) once I know i’ll be somewhere for more than a year. as you could see from the sea of motorbikes……this is probably the best form of transportation here in Jogja
thought I’d give you a little flavor flave of this…..so very much reminds me of traditional Indian dance. after seeing this – now I know where poppers in the early 80’s got their moves…

it’s been a whirlwind since we’ve gotten here..first off we run into Megan’s friend, Ingvild, at the Bali Airport – second off once we arrive the Guest House that Megan usually stays at was booked (Prambanan) – so we had to stay at a second rate place…slightly stressful – but it was only one night. here are the photos of the place the Perwita Sari Guest House…….not so exciting
