Bay Area Videos

I m really excited to post this absolutely killin multimedia by The Supplicants getting crazy with the improvisation live at the Red Poppy Art House in San Francisco on November 6, 2009. They don t get together like this very often, especially with Sameer in NYC these days, so it was a real pleasure to hear them play in such a great intimate venue like the Poppy. Best of all, the guys were gracious enough to let me post all of the audio files from both sets (below), plus photos and a video I produced of the track Pavarti (above). For those viewers with iPhones, you can also directly stream or download this video file too. So, have at it people, this one is not to be missed!

I need to apologize for taking such a long time to post new materials but I have been busy to give a much needed face lift to MvideoM Productions. So for those of you who come regularly (and am not talking about my sister, brother, and nices and nephews) to check the blog, I need to let you know that December 1st, 2009 will be an important day in the era of MvideoM Productions. In the meantime I wanted to share with you this Highlight I created for Stephanie and Calvin. Their wedding was an amazing event, and Todd Rafalovich was the amazing photographer who captured all the important moments of the day. My friend Nicole Ha of Nicloe Ha of Nicole Ha designs was responsible for all the decoration and what an amazing job she did. Thank you to Molly at the Pacific Athletic Club in Redwood shores for opening her doors and being so helpful. I hope you will enjoy it. A tres bientot. Matthieu

Fire recently scorched much of the Big Sur area - and it also threatened one of the rarest birds in the world. The California condor sanctuary in Big Sur went up in flames. Although the birds were rescued, scientists have a major job rebuilding holding pens and other equipment. But California has a lot of condor lovers, and money and volunteers have been pouring in.

It was 19 years ago this month that the earth shook so violently under Santa Cruz and San Francisco that portions of a major highway and a segment of the Bay Bridge collapsed. Sixty three people died. Even though we generally are aloof to the possibility of a major temblor, the reality is we are surrounded by active faults and one East Bay faultline has geologists particularly worried.
