After Thirteen Days Of Rehabilitation

My leg is still bum.. although it seems to be slowly healing.
Had to get an hour-long ultrasound today as the doctor was concerned about blood clot complications + stated that it will probably take six more weeks to fully heal.
:(

But this will provide plenty of time to focus on various editing projects and we've got a stereo-strapped wheelchair ready to roll for DDP#2 next weekend! Also found a sweet party spot and we're doubling the number of boomboxes to 32.. should be good times!
And in the meantime, here's part one of the Lynn Canyon footage:

First Decentralized Dance Party Video Now Online!

Our expectation was to storm Vancouver's 3rd beach with a team of boombox-armed infantrymen and women, blaring synchronized 90's Dance + Booty Bass and overwhelming what we predicted would be a 100-strong beach party in full swing.

We arrived to discover about 10 people and no hint of a party.. but once we pumped up the jams and started cutting loose, a modest crowd began to form, growing steadily as the night progressed, with all manner of passersby compelled to join us and get down.

A pretty good test run and a pretty good time!
