Sitting in the Organic Oasis was like beiing into another world. Musicians, poets, dancers, and their friends were gathered. I would say the performances varied greatly in quality, but the vibe of the evening was comfy, warm, and I was impressed with all the work people had done to put the evening together. We saw some people we knew and made new friends as well.
After the post on the lack of women's voices in the media the other day, I've been much more conscious of whether I've got the camera on men or women. I do have to say that sometimes leaving a picture or video clip out is a favor. But that's because I'm not doing a good enough job with the camera.
The video will give a pale sense of things. It sounds much less on the video than it did in person.
