Amsterdam gives a subsidy for creating a better city by having more green on the roofs. Not only creates the natural green layer isolation, it also produces extra oxygen... The dakdokters are a great team making sure the entire process goes smoothly...

Working against a jet lag is always hard, therefor it was very welcome that @elvirejaspers had organized a great afternoon during Amsterdam Sail2010. The full set can be found here.

Just returned from an amazing holiday to Java and Bali. A complete different part of the world and yet still very recognizable given the partly joint history and lots of Indonesian influences in Dutch society. I love the art and craft skills Indonesians posses in creating beautiful materials and products. The full snapshot set from the V-Lux20 can be found here. I took my trusted MP and some containers of Porta VC400 and TX400 but those pictures will take some more time to be seen as those need to be developed... I am very curious how those will appear in the end...

Next to all the good news from football, nice weather, biking and business, there was also very sad news. Roy Avni, DJ at KinkFM and the man behind Electronation, passed away yesterday. We wish his friends, family, colleagues and listeners all the strength they need in these difficult days...


Call me a sucker for craft work and technology. Last Friday the people at Vanmoof convinced me to take up biking again.... Running through town on the new bike I bumped into Jaap den Dulk, who was celebrating the football victory...
