Karnatik Jazz, Live Painting, and such things...

Posted by Anil Madhavapeddy Sun, 08 Apr 2007 20:28:00 GMT

Had a great evening out in San Francisco on Friday, when we visited the Red Poppy Art House on Folsom Street to check out a really unique Jazz experience.

The boys from VidyA recently took up an artist-in-residence position there, and performed their fusion of traditional Indian Karnatik music with modern Jazz pieces. They've been making some waves in the SF Jazz scene already it seems, and to top it all of, the owner of the art house did a live painting session during the performance. The audience passed out random bits of stuff, and he incorporated it into a piece done over the course of an evening. Talk about artistic overload!

Love the area as well; there's a nice friendly coffee-house down the road (which is pretty much my only criteria, apart from not getting shot and such).

My school was never this cool.

The Art of Coffee

Posted by avsm Wed, 06 Apr 2005 11:55:11 GMT

The inhabitants of the William Gates Building have been known to spend many loving hours tweaking their Intelcino beverages to perfection at the IRC coffee machine. However, it looks like the fine chaps at the Cafe de Roytawan in Thailand may have one up on us. Watch, boggle, and drool at their Art of Coffee!

Yeah yeah...

Not just a one-trick pony!
