Me, Myself, and I
Welcome and thanks for visiting my homepage. Enjoy my photographs and videos here. The video sometimes streams slowly on Bebo, so connect directly to You Tube; search for 'nickgonewalkabout', and enjoy what you see there. Please rate or comment if you have time.

My short film, 'Konnichiwa Burning Man 2007', won 'Fraise d' Or' in June 2008 (http://www.strawberry-fair.org.uk/fi.... Respect and thanks to program director Simon Mullen, the judges, and everyone involved in Strawberry Fair. The encouragement is deeply felt and appreciated. I'm continuing to edit and create visually, and recently screened seven of my short films in underground theatres in Asia.

I´m a practioner of Reiki and have been exploring world cultures since 2001. I attempt to incorporate the essence of Reiki and my travel experience through film, some examples of which can be found below.

One thing to remember, democracy isn't a legacy, today its a job description and the job gets tougher every passing generation. Rather more in the hands of business than the people it governs perhaps. However, the wind of change is in the air...

      Four times in Singapore. Previously, only the architecture, history, and efficiency of the city-state revealed themselves to me. Now, scratching deeper, I'm discovering it's real essence, ambiance and zeitgeist. This short film on You Tube gives you an insight in just a few happy minutes... an amusing perspective from the eye of a talented low-budget/no-budget independent film-maker in Singapore:

      While in this city I met film director Yee Wei, whose currently working on his first feature-length presentation. I very much admire Yee's open manner and generosity, and he's fueled in me plans for my own full-length film. I won't however be taking any lead from Hollywood, predisposed as it is with violence and cruelty. It would seem intent on teaching the children of the world to point guns at one another through action films watched by many children in places like Thailand and Indonesia. Hollywood would no doubt point to a lack of censorship and screening control, which entirely side steps the real issue of responsibility for the darkness these films bring into the collective consciouseness of mankind. They perpetuate a callousness and brutality in our pyschology reflecting badly on the west and which fall far short of our potential. On the other hand, if you want to see what real contributions are being made to the growth and nourishment of humanity, check this winning independent short from Australia's Tropfest:

      I'm staying in the Betel Box backpackers, which I can recommend for friendliness and local knowledge should you ever find yourself passing through Singapore. Tony the owner, connected me with emerging film-makers and consistently provides a high level of insight and opportunity if you want to discover the real Singpapore. His commitment is routinely recognised by the tourist authority in Singapore. Find it on
