An Interview with Mr. Adams
Where are you going next, Mr. Adams?
Well, I'm glad you asked! On October 5th, I am flying to Singapore via Hong Kong on Cathay Pacific Airlines. There I will visit with my good friend, Kyra, currently teaching theater arts at an English-language high school. I believe the plan is to work on art and cinema projects, drink many Singapore slings and partake in Kyra's hot tub. After about a week of such tomfoolery, I shall embark on a northerly trek into Malaysia, Thailand, Laos, Vietnam and Cambodia.
What are you taking with you?
A small backpack with a few changes of clothes, a pair of Chacos, a pair of Chucks, my SLR film camera, my tiny Canon digi-cam, tons of notebooks, a digital voice recorder, a few novels & guidebooks, and a thumbdrive. Also, possibly my Leatherman knife in checked baggage.
How long will you be gone?
Indefinitely. My ticket is one-way. I do plan on being in SE Asia at least through the New Year and into January. Right now there are tentative plans on flying over to New Zealand in late January to be a sheepherder and beekeeper on a farm, but my plans are always shifting.
Any tentative projects you plan on working on?
I want to take portraits of madmen I meet in SE Asia and then conduct short interviews with them. I always seem to stumble across a wide array of quality characters on my journeys, and I now want to document them and ultimately make a website photo-essay out of them.
