Hi all,

Kat and I are heading off in about a month on our (ha ha) "World Tour". Any gigs you can suggest that tie in with any of our destinations would be muchly appreciated:

* Singapore 5-8 May
* Seville 9-17 May (Lux2006)
* Barcelona 17-20 May
* New York 20-28 May (Eyewash)
* San Francisco 28 May - 5 Jun
* Auckland 7-9 Jun

Look forward to meeting local VJs and AV artists along the way too - we've already had invitations to visit some VJs' studios

We've had this idea, to start shooting as soon as we leave airport, check into hotel and process footage and then do a gig that night showing our First Impressions of the city. We like to set ourselves little challenges... A continuation of our 'Views From a Moving Vehicle' series, in strange cities. We've found in the past that some of our favourite footage has been when travelling - I guess it's hard to look at your own city as an enthusiastic newcomer. I know taxi drivers will just take us to cliched tourist spots, but we can work with that, and research locations before we get there.

Our only disappointment so far was that we couldn't get tickets to the Daily Show studio audience for the week we're in NY. Ah well! Don't suppose anyone can help pull some strings there?

Any advice about any of our destinations appreciated too. You can contact us from our myspace (http://myspace.com/vjzoocom) or our site (vjzoo.com).

If anyone's ever in Western Australia, we're happy to reciprocate the hospitality - eg VJ Mo Selle from Singapore is hopefully coming over for our Painting With Light workshop in July - yay!

Hay, am kind of doing the same sort of thing even down to the idea of filming at airports, I have been building up a collection of bit of footage of all the arrows in our life telling us what to do, evertwhere all of us are being directed by arrows. sorry side track. anyhow I'm in New York same time, being another dyslexic Australian VJ, would be kind of interesting to meet up, in my previous life before I become a vj I used to work as a banker there so I know the place quite well, and am going back to veiw it through a vjs eye. my own dates as follows:

Paris 27 april - 1may (versionslive)
Boston 2 may - 10th (MIT visiting artist)
New York 10th -21st
Pappeete 20 - 23rd
then back home to Canberra
