ingwavuma video
ingwavuma from ipickmynose on Vimeo.
I finally put together some of the clips I took on my Flip Mino HD in Ingwavuma into a video. It’s a bit shakey and I was a bit hurried on the editing but overall I feel like it gives an idea of what life in the town is like.
The clips in order are (in Ingwavuma unless noted):
sunrise self portrait
clothes on a clothesline
kids on zipline
store entrance in Bhambanana
roadside between Ndumo and Bhambanana
returning from the pump with washing
Fana and co at Okhayeni school
kids playing soccer
people in town
minibus taxi ride to Okhayeni
cows resting
Bridgie and her daughter Zaza
the road in Bhambanana
Swifty looking over Swaziland
petro station store in Bhambanana
soccer
overlooking the valley
driving through Jozini
Andrew and Fana in Bhambanana

Hey Adrian,
I was wondering why I couldn’t get through to you – I see you are back in US America…
Sorry about my very poor communication skills in the past month or two but I have been rather swamped with life love and legislation.
But at least i found your blog…

Nice. For your next video I suggest you have someone record you doing the Fishstick, preferably in public, ideally while you’re lecturing.
If you’re unfamiliar with this, listen to this, from 6:49 to about 18:30. There are also lots of videos on Youtube and Vimeo.

Skilful and sensitive rendering of life there. Loved it!

Heh Adrian,
Just seen your Ingwavuma video and loved it. Brought back many memories and we would like to show at our Ingwavuma party we are having here next Saturday in Glasgow.
If you happen to be passing ….
Hope all well now you are back in the US.
Love Paula & Derek
