1991: Kickstarting the Bucket List

Don’t grow old – just evolve.

(last updated: 9 August 2025)

Purchased in the early 80’s, that amplifier (pic 3) is still sought after to this day.


And for me, coupled with InterDyn P2 speakers of the early 90’s, should be on any audiophile’s bucket list. Only moderate volume levels are required. Slow jams of the 90’s were off the chain.

Boyz II Men - Uhh Ahh (1991)

Those speakers were bought for a “modern” Denon PMA-1080R, which was a good amp back then, but the sound just wasn’t in the same league as the vintage amp that was brought back to life. The Acoustic Research speakers stored away were crackling – they probably should have just been repaired.

The CD player was a Technics SL-PS900. I read Hi-Fi magazines back then and it got an unbelievable review. Our neighbour from Brunei who ended up at HP after RMIT, Lawrance, was also into Hi-Fi gear. He followed on from Mikito with a bunch of other tertiary students from Asia. They had a Marantz amp and kept a lot of vinyl. I think his speakers were JBL but he wanted Infinity. He really got into Luther Vandross and me too eventually:

[drums switcheroo] Vandross mashup (JPONTHABEAT) (2022 + 2025)

Really nice guy too, and showed me Windows 3 before anyone else and even helped me install it, as well as scan for viruses. This made me a sort of go-to guy at school.

I kind of struggled with fashion back then, I didn’t really know what I liked and what I didn’t. As long as I wasn’t in Stussy pants: I wasn’t good enough at skateboarding for those! They would turn me into a try-hard! But I had gray Stussy shorts though as they weren’t as obvious.

[ 1993 ] [ 2018 ]

Justin and Julian said they met Lawrance on the way back from Chapel Street on the tram and he gave them a whole heap of KFC for free. I’m pretty sure it was them, but not 100%. At one point I gave Lawrance our Paula Abdul Spellbound CD to keep – I think it was brought back from Chicago by my mum and no one really played it. But his whole apartment rocked it, though.

My mum had been in Chicago representing a gallery alongside Tom Spender at the CIAE Art Expo (1991?)

She just went into a record store and asked for their tips. She brought back Diamonds and Pearls with a special edition hologram cover that I didn’t see in Australia. I couldn’t believe the simplicity of the Cream beat.

Prince & The New Power Generation - Cream (Official Music Video)

So I made a mashup with Paula in 2022.

OAKK and Paula Abdul - Madeleine Rush (RaveDJ, 2022)

The chorus is only gifted at 2:15. Incredible build-up.

One of Justin’s friends Charles (not from my school) gave me his Billy Hyde drum pad around that time not long after I met him at his home. I couldn’t believe it. It was almost new and he was around my age. He said he never used it. I used it all the time.

People, especially friends and neighbours could really gift more to each other and often it does more for the giver than the receiver because it comes back in multiples. If you have something you don’t want or need, give it to someone who does. So simple, right?

So one of the guys at the apartment with a souped up bronze Honda Civic was installing a new radio or sub-woofer and I was trying to screw in a bolt behind the radio with my small hand. I couldn’t see what I was doing and at one point I said “Have you gotta light?” and everyone standing around screamed with laughter. It didn’t matter – I got the bolt in regardless. No smoko required. Incidentally, that Civic had “Mugen” emblazoned on it, but I don’t think it was a real Mugen Civic. Not sure.

That was at the back of the building where I often went to hit a tennis ball and the apartment block is still standing to this day.

A few years later the whole apartment had cleared: maybe 1995 but Lawrance is still around somewhere – if you can get his attention for a test drive or test listen.

Anyway, by the late 90’s I was driving a gray Hyundai Excel (with Desmond in the boot) and had learned to double-clutch and rev-match. A lot of fun. I took an Indian girl from uni once for a spin and she blurted out “ooh, I love the way you drive.” I thought it was only backies that got the girls.


So at one point, I was close to buying a new car, and located a strangely inexpensive but great condition 1991 Honda Civic CRX Si-R VTEC. It belonged to a relative of a mechanic I knew at the time and I saw it gleaming in his workshop one day. His cousin may have had trouble offloading it because it was a 2-seater but wanted to keep the radio from it. After a few tense calls, I took it for a test drive and it was lit, especially for the price.

At $28000 it was about $2000 more than the Nissan Bluebird (1995 LX,  series 2) that I could’ve sold – money which I didn’t have. Maybe he could’ve dropped the price without the radio?? Using its VIN, I checked from the side of the road to see if it had an accident history over the phone and it did not. It looked like this and had the rare glass roof option.

Flooring it, Jeremy who somehow found me that day, blurted out “it’s like an M3!” And it was. Being a 2-seater sports meant I couldn’t get any more help buying it. I was out of contact with Lawrance – he may have wanted it, or his friend. Mugen not needed.

So another “close but no cigar moment” and another one for the bucket!

While driving, Lawrance turned to me once and said “you know, I can beat any car in a straight line race.” It was difficult getting him to actually do that or explain, but he sort of showed me how to anticipate a green light, and said something like “you know, you’re not really allowed to do that.”

– mashups

The name “royal blue” was first used in 1810-1820. The “royal” in royal blue comes from England, where the hue was said to have been created for a competition to make a dress for Queen Charlotte (1744—1818).

The shade of blue associated with the name has actually changed over time. Before the 1950s, royal blue was considered to be much darker.

In the late 1980s, the World Wide Web Consortium – which is the international group for web standards – matched this brighter blue, along with its RGB code, to the name “royal blue”.

Japan Gets Real

Along with new voices.

(updated: 16 March 2025)

I’d always known about Japan.

From a very young age, I saw the Japanese characters on the back of drink cartons, along with Astro Boy on television. Also, I pondered my mum’s use of chopsticks, her shopping for bean shoots, roasted sesame oil, tofu and soy sauce at Japan Mart and use of the wok. I also liked checking out different car brands which meant going to the motor show. Then, in 1988, I learned Japanese at school. Also, my dad’s good friend had a Japanese wife.

Next door to Japan Mart was Brent’s Toy Shop. Both those shops have become a hairdressing supply store and bicycle store respectively, and have been like that ever since – for decades.

Italy started to get real too, when I first saw a Lamborghini Countach at Brent’s in the mid-late 80’s. Over time, they actually had a few – sometimes with rear spoilers and sometimes without. Inside the store read the slogan: “What separates the men from the boys are the price of their toys.” So gazing at Pirelli P-Zeroes that were as wide as my chest is a vision I won’t forget.

I used to think “how is this even a car?” and the name was cool too. The teasing sales guy said he’d let me have the car for $5, but I needed to pay literally on the spot. Somehow he knew I had no cash on me.

Jay Leno bought one as his daily driver and said the key with Italian cars was to let them warm up before heading off. The shop also had a De Tomaso Pantera, Aston Martin, white Lotus Esprit and red Ferrari 328 GTS at different times and as the office was on a mezzanine, as I would check out cars, the staff would peer down at me.

Wallet-wise they seemed more interested in knowing about my dad than about me. Yet by 1987 we “only” had a light-green Honda Accord…

[2020]

… to hell with those Japanese 4 seaters.

I am pretty sure most of Brent’s cars were new – and multi-brand dealerships don’t exist like this anymore and perhaps that’s why it closed down – the sales guy said something about it – the auto-makers wanted large orders, not for 1 or 2 units and they wanted vertical integration.

At the time, the closest I got to driving in a Ferrari was sitting in Ron Walker‘s red Testarossa on Irving road as I rode passed a well-known residence with “Spartacus.”

[2020 | 2025 ]

Good guy… but the Americans and Japanese solved (or attempted to solve) the problem that the Italians created – I drove one in Test Drive on the 8088.

[mid + late 80’s]

…and in Out Run at the Fun Factory arcade with Mikito (see further down) about 100m up from Brent’s, but which has also since shut down.

Recently, (as of 2024) a motorcycle salesman told me point-blank that “Life’s good on a low-rider” for a 2007 Suzuki Boulevard.

Mid-life crisis averted. Thank God for the Japanese!

Yet, I’d rather an electric unicycle at this point because it carves better and co-incides with my dream flying. So whatever takes me to Downtown Venus?!?

P.M. Dawn - Downtown Venus (Live NPA Canal+)

Anyway, we had some Japanese next-door neighbours who lived in the apartment block in 1987.

In fact, I met a number of people who lived in that building because I used to hit a tennis ball against the walls in the back parking lot occasionally after school when there were no cars around, and the Body Corporate Manager’s name was Adrian too.

Incidentally, there was a proper tennis court across the road, and the owner was nice enough to let me play their as well and have tennis lessons with Doron on Saturday mornings.

But that court was eventually bulldozed for the owner’s new residence that was self-designed, while their main house was sold-off as well. In that house, during the first intifada, a guy once said that the Gaza Strip was actually a nightspot, but it took me a few years to get the pun.

But my first reaction to seeing footage of the intifada was that the IDF should throw rocks back. In Australia, if someone started throwing rocks they’d be arrested.

Also, with this mindset, the IDF to this day could launch missiles such as Katyushas (or the equivalent) into Lebanon and the territories as well. IDF becomes IPF – Israel Proportionate Force. Because if I lob a tennis ball over the fence, someone may eventually lob it back.

Why aren’t there rows of tanks and missiles in northern Israel pointed at southern Lebanon permanently, or a fleet of self-destructing FPV drones ready to go? It makes no sense – actually it makes a lot of sense depending on the perspective. Moreover, Israel should be preparing for drones carrying cold-war warheads next as being the “new Qassams” and have jammers ready to go.

In 2025, if I come across any anti-Israel rhetoric, usually I can just say something like “What are you a Muslim or something? They’ll come for you next. Haven’t you read the Quran?” Talk about useful idiots – especially Prime Minister Netanyahu (previously Milikovski) whereby from my observations, he rarely talks about the Muslim angle of the conflict and confuses Jews with Israelites and Israelites with Israelis – like so many others.

Having today’s “Israel” named directly after its predecessor from 2500 years ago (below right) when the Israelites actually existed (as the 12 tribes) doesn’t help matters either.

[ Tower of David museum, 2017 ]

If only today’s Saudis came with gold tributes for the Prime Minister as might have happened 3000 years ago.

[ ” ]

But that was before Islam and during actual Israelite Kingship.

So Jerusalem is a city that “has been fought over sixteen times in its history. During its long history, Jerusalem has been destroyed twice, besieged 23 times, attacked 52 times, and captured and recaptured 44 times.” src

[ ” ]

So I wonder, when someone buys some dates in Sweden:

Are they:

  • Actually wanting to “Re-conquer Al-Quds” rather than to “Free Palestine” as history would infer?
  • Aware that the “international day to express support for Palestine and oppose the Israeli occupation of Palestinian territories” is called “Al-Quds Day” circa 1979 – ie “Jerusalem Day.”
  • Living by the sword?
  • Aware of their own ancestral conquests and bloodshed?
  • Aware that pro-Palestinian content may in fact be sourced from certain Jews in order to turn themselves into better victims to receive more donations and support the war paradigm? This happens in Gaza as well – diverting food trucks away from those in need – creates better Palestinian victims while providing goods to sell/store and enables more content to be swallowed by useful idiots.

Let he who is without sin cast the first stone date.

All warfare is based on deception.

Anyway, so 11 or 12-yr old Mikito and a bunch of us would go to the Fun Factory and blow our coins on Double Dragon and Dragon Ninja.

Mikito was an only child and his dad was a hairdresser. I’m pretty sure their visa application was rejected and they returned to Japan. He brought over his Famicom and used it here and that was amazing to me. He struggled with English but we all made it work somehow and he was a lot of fun.

Back then, we had a Honda Accord and on my way to learning Karate in 1995, I learned Tae Kwon Do years earlier.

1

Yet mostly I dreaded Thursday’s Tae Kwon Do class because at 2 – 2.5 hours, it was so tiring and stressful. It was also a fair drive to reach the Camberwell Civic Centre. One time, the car ran out of petrol and literally rolled into the servo next door. And that’s the way the class made me feel so often.

But, under the guidance of Jack Rozinsky, I ended up with a yellow belt and two stripes before stopping. Karate in 1995 was with Sensei Joe, which I preferred.

I won an award “Most Spirited Senior” that year and was somewhat sad to give it up due to study commitments and a desire to change my physicality.

1 2 3

I threw away the trophy recently (late ’22) due to it dropping, and should’ve taken a photo before doing so. Back into the spirit realm. I remember sparring competitively with another Jewish guy double my age (Jonathan?) at the second-floor venue in Cato Street.

One of my school friends Peter was doing Chikara style Karate at the time but at a different association and when he found out about the commonality on a lunch break, he played me Pantera in his walkman. He was into the game Street Fighter II a few years earlier and used to emulate the moves he saw and take on the whole theatrical effect.

I went to Japan in December that year too and for the first and only time,

[pic 3: Kobe post earthquake ??]

I bleached my hair with Tina in Greville Street for the school holidays.

So that trip was with Jun whose immediate family lived in Japan and I knew him from Geelong Grammar, Timbertop.

[ Jun on bottom bunk, in front of Use Your Illusion II poster ]

He had slept in the bunk next to mine and in fact, on about 3 occasions  in the middle of the night I heard (and saw) him sit up and speak a completely alien language to me.

[ At the interstellar departure gate. ]

No one else witnessed it, and he knew nothing of it personally. At the time, he was on the top bunk, not bottom. So S and Jun must’ve switched.

It wasn’t just a few words either, the monologues would go on for 2-5 minutes and were very fluent. They really should’ve woken up other people but did not.

And Jun was very often the last person to make the breakfast line-up, right after me. Re-orienting with illusion?

The lingo used for sleeping back then was “spine-bashing” and “departured” and it was a favourite pastime for many.

Today, very rarely I might hear music in my dreams – if only I could access it in waking life, like Lenny Kravitz. Perhaps people access past lives too: and languages. I had a massive download in a sleep in Jerusalem in 2005 – maybe that was Jun’s?

I should’ve tried sleeping outside.

It’s worth noting that Andrew from 4Xoverland mentioned once that part of the reason he likes 4WD’ing so much is to get away from civilisation where he has said that his soul can travel at night in a more effective way. Dream flying too? Something like that anyway.

Continuing, another school friend Sa (brown jacket below) and Jun’s cousin (pink jacket) also made it over to Japan as Jun is Australian/Japanese.

There was a lot to take in including skiing at Tenjindaira with incredible amounts of snow (compared to Mount Buller) and at one point Jun and I spent 45 minutes looking for a ski. I took a fall in the powder and somersaulted and the ski was at the top of landing spot, not down the hill where I stopped. I also recorded a video of me skiing to the base of the mountain, but the camera was on full zoom so it came out poorly.

Note the Alpine Racer game:

But it wasn’t a “game” if there was no sense of defeat, only victory or discovery.

Anyhow, in Tokyo, January 1996, I checked out the the Elvin Jones Special Quartet with Wynton Marsalis at the Tokyo Bunka Kaikan. I missed Jamiroquai by a few weeks light years.

But, by chance Prince came through a night-club that I was at with his massive entourage. I had last seen him in concert in April 1992 for Diamonds and Pearls. He played a number of shows in Japan also in January 1996. I’m not sure if he came through after his concert but I did see him from about 10 meters away despite me not trying to get a glimpse as he strutted across the dance floor to his next destination.

Prince - Love... Thy Will Be Done - January 8, 1996, Live at Budokan, Tokyo

I bought a number of CDs as well: R. Kelly self-titled, (What’s the Story) Morning Glory? (on Sa’s recommendation,) Jesus Wept and Back from the Raggedy Edge. All these albums came out a few months prior to me arriving. I really was very fortunate to be able to make the trip to Japan and am very grateful for it.

Continuing, I started Bagua and Yoga in 1997 and became vegan for a period of time. I also gave Pilates a few sessions.

But was I heading in the right direction with my menu? I was using a book to learn some of my Yoga poses. Was it enough?

I was still eager to find new voices, even if I didn’t understand them at first.

So via Sugihara, Japan provided a lifeline for my grandparents during the war on the way to Australia, so where was the next stop? Back to Japan?

TLC released tracks in 1995, which I first heard in Japan, and I mashed up in Israel in 2013.

Diggin' On You (Soulpower Remix)
I must admit to you (Sango + TLC + Britney Spears) [June 2013 - 2021]

So is that where I would find flow? And yes I did find it, quite literally…

But how do other Israelis find flow? Was defeat, victory or discovery at hand? A zero-sum game?

1992: Spellbound from take to mistake!

The body soon knows where the nose goes!

(updated: 16 February 2025)

Timbertop next year (early 90's - Sep + Feb)

* In the video above, I mention using my brother Luke’s stereo and bike accessories (tyre pump) after he left for boarding school.

That clip was shot in February ’92 and when he returned for term 1 holidays, I admitted to using his stereo and other stuff. It was just a casual conversation we had. Sharing is caring, right?

My mother was somewhat okay with me doing so, but only under certain conditions.

He also used some of my stuff in the following year. We ultimately shared our stuff… within reasonable limits under the constraints of the time.

Also, from 1989 onward we used to share a number of things including a single 8088 XT clone for school work and gaming. Luke had the computer in his room for a while (so I was in there a bit) until it was moved into the family room, and it was often a source for conflict or disagreement.

[ colorized ]

Who knows, maybe it caused my visual short-sightedness (I got glasses in 1994) and derailed my handwriting but I was handing in printed assignments at school before anyone else and topped the class consistently, except for Hebrew.

So in around 1990, my mum was kind enough to bring home a pair of Bauer rollerblades from the USA (around a decade after giving birth to me.)

Then by 1992, Bar Mitzvah = gifts = much unused clutter.

1 2 ..

At the end of that year, I broke my nose snowboarding in France and I had only just started out shredding

[Buller, 1992]

And before that, Jeremy had initially lent me his board – an early Burton.

That was a year or two earlier and the boots weren’t great – I think they were rentals, though.

 

So I didn’t find snowboarding easy, but it was fresh and fun. So I ended up with a bump, like so many others.

[ Courchevel, early 1993 ]

Like being in Luke’s room, maybe I shouldn’t have ever ventured onto that steep run. I think it was Face de Bellevarde (Val-d’Isère) the Olympic downhill run and it was so foggy that day that I never intended to board there. Also, I lost my way and ended up tumbling over some rocks on the the side of the run at the bottom section. It really hurt.

Just because you can do something, doesn’t mean you should. Unless you’re nosy.

It was a week or two after the pics below.

1 2

So my grandfather once told me he broke his nose, I think during the war, and he just used his bare hands to snap it back into place. There were no doctors around. He laughed about it.

But for me, I didn’t think of that. When I told my mum a few days later she suggested seeing a doctor. But I didn’t want an operation, and if I could still breathe through it, and it looked okay, I’d be fine. Yet perhaps the doctor could’ve manually reset it like with Fred. That’s possible if done within a week of breakage – but they could also wreck it more. Interestingly, I recently learned that mouth-breathing is actually risky to dental health, as it disrupts the oral microbiome.

“France is not really herself unless she is in the front rank,” wrote de Gaulle at the start of his war memoirs The Call to Honor. Only the French ?!?

As with de Gaulle, Freddy too also fought in the French resistance, whereby some fighters helped him cross the Pyrenees on his escape to Barcelona from Toulouse where he learned Spanish. I don’t think he handled a gun and am not sure how long he was with the group, though. I think he said his nose was broken in a battle – not sure. So he left in January, 1944. His younger brother (Jacques,) sister (Lily) and mother (Manya) followed in July with the help of “passeurs.” It took them 4 days and nights to make the trip over the Pyrenees to rendezvous with Freddy in Spain (see below.)

As a child, Fred showed me once at Mount Buller how to pierce an egg and drink the contents through it, which the resistance fighters did. Must’ve worked. Interestingly, to this day (Nov 2024) my mother speaks French and Spanish – both very well, as did her father.

Anyway, prior to the ’92 trip, I had also skied in France in 85/86.

With ski instructor Lionel at Club Med, Tignes Val Claret, for a 2-star award… great teacher and person.

So I had two other risky falls that trip while skiing in early 1993.

On the first day, I took a minor fall but a single ski catapulted almost to the height of the chairlift and almost landed on my head. I didn’t see any of it, but that’s what I was told. Some time later, I took a fall and ended up sliding down a steep run (in Val Thorens?) with only one ski attached, but picking up speed.

People on the chair were shouting at me but I didn’t know what they were saying. I managed to break my slide by doing some kind of self-arrest with the poles. Later from the chair I saw I would’ve dropped and slammed really hard into a traverse track had I kept going, maybe over the edge of a cliff.

Around this time, Rikka’s father saw me fall at the bottom of Bull Run chair amongst the moguls, when he stood there and said “Nice Stack” in a French accent. At least he was honest.

I had taken big falls on race courses too, unwilling or unable to ride the big ruts when they emerged in the fog.

[ 1993 ? – Shakey Knees, Mount Buller ]

Yet, I had been skiing since I was two so how could I overcome the discontent?

Maybe the equipment was the problem. Why carry poles if they were never even planted? I wasn’t using poles while rollerblading. My uncle once suggested to wear weighted gloves as an experiment. But in the end, the ‘right’ technique was dictated by the ski shape – yet that wasn’t enabling me to become the endorphin machine I know was possible.

1994 05 05 Endorphinmachine

So a little over a decade later in 2002, I did an introductory ski instructor’s course at Mount Buller, but didn’t end up teaching. A good thing as ski schools have very clear ideas of what’s right and wrong regarding technique. Yet so did I. I have the certificate somewhere.

That year I had started to Heartcarve in New Zealand (Mt Ruapehu) on some of the earlier parabolic skis and basically never fell from then onward as a result of my quiet revolution in style.

[ Salt Lake City + Snowbird – March 2003 ]

So skiing then became a sport about endorphins for me rather than adrenaline and that became possible due to my rollerblading practice and analysing the planes of Heart-motion, which I ended up describing in an article in 2008.

[ diagram ~2003 | March 2008 ]

And people on the Newschoolers site wondered if I was serious or not.

There are actually 6 separate carving styles within these planes. This deconstruction and re-imagining of skiing occurred consciously as I thought about new ways to use the parabolic skis that began arriving in the late 90’s from Elan which I had yet to use. I wanted a way to abstract myself away from the micro-management of movement that can lead to rigid thinking and limit flow-states. As mentioned elsewhere, “if nothing else, free the left-hand,” yet “free the heart” would also be great.

So Heartcarving was enabled by an evolution in ski design.

[ 2007 Buller x 2 | 2008 Whistler ]

And by January 2013 I was fortunate enough to be able to head to Zermatt with a pair of custom skis that I designed in snoCAD-X, were built in France and then sent to me in Jerusalem.

[  2012 Chamonix (Idris) ]

Skis on roof [Jerusalem late 2012]

Just ask Pierre.

"I've never seen skis like that!" [Jan, 2013]

Because who wants to break a leg?

[ Aug, 2017 ]

Furthermore, upon returning I started buying inexpensive crystals from ebay to help continue with this shift to the heart in day-to-day life – well that’s what I believed or wanted.

Heart Rhythm Meditation was something I came across in 1999 – and to me it makes sense to be aware of the heart and lungs simultaneously – along with everything else going on. The idea is to get more exit from the mind and more presence into the body because the body is always present. That’s what St Germain spoke about also in 1999.

"Rhodizite is an amplification stone." #crystal #rhodizite

[July 2014]

Others have said that the heart chakra is the most important one because it keeps the others in balance.

And even though I haven’t skied since 2013, (as of 2024) I feel I am possibly 50 years ahead of my time. Time will tell. And those custom skis ended up warping anyway, so perhaps the delay can mean better materials to construct true super-skis.

To this day, I don’t see why the body can’t naturally restructure itself to its original blueprint. Perhaps it never will whilst under a Witch’s Spell.
