Torre de Collserola

the rocket appears to be falling...


Once again, I'm sorry to put your download and browser through the struggle of a 6.6MB animated gif, but I just love making them.

I was thrilled to see that this monstrosity of a tower had an observation deck and was just a 30 minute march from where I'm staying here in the hills of Barcelona. What a sight!

La Pedrera



I have a love/hate relationship with Gaudi, but in this case it's all love, especially because it's a rooftop. La Pedrera, or "The Quarry" is an apartment complex representative of his style and control of the entire process of construction. Every surface has a smoothed, wind blown and eroded touch to it that I loved running my hands over.

Makyo



The ambient tent at Boom was one of my favorite places to relax and still enjoy music. The audience averaged ~50% asleep any time of the day. One of my friends, listening to this performance said she couldn't tell if they were performing or just doing sound check/warmup, but I guess that's what happens when you listen to breakbeats all the time. :)
