June 2nd 2007: Union Street Festival

All three movies are of musical entertainment. All are low resolution because I primarily wanted to record the sound, not the people. Two movies are of the Atmos Trio (1,2) a small, harmonic jazz group. Another movie is of a jazzy blues band, the Rob Robinson Band.

There are movies associated with this collection.

Union Street Festival
Parties spread to the rooftops. I think this is the first festival where I've seen this occur.	A variety of items made from (reused) chopsticks. The folding baskets are pretty cool. The guy who makes these spent a year in China and saw how many chopsticks go to waste. Sometimes people recycle the wood. The artist realized it would be better for the environment if the chopsticks could be reused, not simply recycled. Thus, he came up with these ideas and products.	A flower shop. It's a nice presentation and photo but I was flowered out from my recent trip to Berkeley so this is the only picture I took. Incidentally, there is another flower shop across the street.	A pretty good used bookstore where I relaxed and browsed for half an hour. I love the mural surrounding the window!
Cool metal sunbursts. I'd seen them at another festival but this was the first time I photographed them. The business card I grabbed says, "Sunrise International Trade: Ricardo Oppenheimer" and gives contact information.	Apparently I didn't record who created these pieces of art.
The Food Scene
Deep fried mushrooms, artichoke hearts, and zucchinis. They tided me over until I saw enough of the festival to make a lunch decision.	New Orleans Cajun Cooking, the stand at which I bought lunch.	Jambalaya.
