routing electrons

These very large conduits are part of the overhead electrical feeds for a new HPC datacenter at the UofA.  The electricians did a incredible job of bending and routing all these conduits. 

2011 All Souls Procession (Tucson) videos

I only took still photos of the All Souls Procession for my blog this year, so I went looking on YouTube to find a couple of videos to share more of the look and feel of this great event.

Here is a great video by T. Stone of the 2011 All Souls Procession that includes some great shots of finale firedancers:




This is another person's short video of the portion of the finale where the urn (people placed remembrance notes/messages in it earlier as it was pulled along the Procession route) is lit on fire. This year there were three aerialists suspended from the crane including a silk performance artist.



And a more distant video of the urn lighting by Johnnyangelb that shows the height of the crane:

2011 All Souls Procession

I enjoyed participating in this year's All Souls Procession held Sunday night in downtown Tucson -- such a cool event!  I look forward to it every year as one of my favorite Tucson events.  Here are a few pictures I took during this year's Procession.  The couple above really out did themselves -- great look!

These guys sounded great!

I was surprised to find after the fact that there is a ghost-like person behind a veil to her left.
