Just attended #JannekevanDalen and #NadjaSicarov 's #SharethatKnowledge book launch today. You can download a PDF of their handbook on the FIAF site: fiafnet.org/pages/Publicat…! Thankful for all the hard work and support that made this project possible.

Set by Ferdinando Scarfiotti or location in NOLA? You tell me. Just watched Paul Schrader’s “Cat People” (1982) and both the tracks by Bowie and Moroder and set design is 👌🏽!

Spent my last night in Prague at the Žižkov Television Tower. There’s a bar at the top straight out of a Bond film! 🍸

Leaving Prague feeling inspired and thankful to have been able to attended #NTTW7 at Kino Ponrepo.

Prague really “gets” me.
