Synchromysticism

Forgotten Beach (Byron Bay)

I took this shot on my cheap cell phone,
I'm quite proud of getting this nice shot.
I was looking for the clip of one of my favourite songs about one of my most favourite places on earth ... OK so I haven't traveled all that much, but if this was your backyard would you?
I also found this spiral light filmed in the Byron night sky when I was trying to find a clip of the Spiral Man of Byron Bay. 
Check out Spiral Man making his Crop like sand circles on the beach.
He's good.
The one time I managed to get all immediate
family members together in
Byron
Breathtaking!
Another bonus I got while looking for Robert's song
Forgotten Beach was stumbling across this wonderful blog -

Take a look at the wonderful photos of Byron Bay on this site and I think that you'll come to realize why I spend so much time there.
I felt on top of the world when I took this picture
  
from the lighthouse
I think that I could easily live in this lighthouse;-)
For those who may not have heard of Robert James, he is a member of the band GANGgajang who had the big hit a while back with 
Sounds Of Then, which can be viewed in the above You Tube video.
Robert can be seen playing the guitar in that clip, as well.

My Favourite Music from "All My Friends Are Leaving Brisbane"

These are some of my favourite songs from the film  
All My Friends Are Leaving Brisbane.
Louise Alston the director of the film tried using songs from band's based in Brisbane for the film's soundtrack and I think that was a brilliant idea.
Some of the songs off the soundtrack I hadn't heard before, and I live in Brisbane.
I even bought the soundtrack on CD after seeing this film, because I was so taken by a few of the songs off the album.
Particularly this one below ... and no, not because of the sexy half naked girl jumping on the bed in her underwear.
I hadn't seen this clip till well after I liked the song, but hey I'm not objecting to it, either;-)
Hey, I'll admit the last film clip needs something better than someone who looks like they're hosting a kids show and who's flipped out on a red cordial overdose ... but still, the song is a good one ... just don't look at the screen.
You can download or check out bits of the rest of the film's soundtrack here if you are interested,

It's not a bad film to watch, either.
I think it should have done better box office than it did.

How Kevin Bacon Cured Cancer

This film is a must see in my opinion.

You can scrape most of it together on You Tube or you can watch the whole lot at once here -
How Kevin Bacon Cured Cancer 
And if you have not seen the movie that started it all 
Six Degrees of Separation, which was based on the play that started it all, I would encourage you to rent a copy, or see the play ... or at least read up about the theory of Six Degrees
before watching How Kevin Bacon Cured Cancer.
Six degrees of separation
Six Degrees of Separation
Probably not a good example to use W
as someone you want to be connected to.
Here's a post I wrote that gives credence to the hub theory talked about in How Kevin Bacon Cured Cancer,
Turning 6 Degrees Down to 2 Degrees
