Bruegga goes to Greenbelt

Yesterday in my post of what I’m looking forward to at Greenbelt, I hinted that there was someone else that was coming along who I would reveal today. Well, allow me to make introductions for you.

This is Bruegga. He lives with us and he belongs to me and my flatmate.

And he’s coming to Greenbelt.

You see, Bruegga had been moaning that he was often left out of the action because he was so often left out of all the fun and frollicks that we get up to, simply because he was a bear and fluffy. “This is unfair”, he grumbled.

So we relented, and said he was allowed to come to Greenbelt. Well, Bruegga is very excited about this and has decided he would not only like to come but to write a photo journal of his time at Greenbelt and maybe see if he can get some cheeky teddy photos with some of the people involved in running it.

This journal will be available after the festival (Bruegga, unfortunately, is not rich enough to be able to afford the kind of data plan that would allow on the fly updating of photos during the course of the festival), along with some of his comments, thoughts and bear-centred musings about everything. He will also be tweeting his way around the site as he sees things that catch his eye.

If you’re going to Greenbelt and you see us around, why not stop and have your photo taken with Bruegga – he would love to have more friends in his memories of the weekend and you might become famous for having your photo taken in the up-and-coming field of Teddy Travel Writing.

So subscribe to the RSS feed and twitter feed (being a bear who is still a minor, he’s not allowed his own twitter feed, so he is on mine @davidbunce to stop any malicious teddies from following him!) and catch up with Bruegga’s fun and frollicks around Greenbelt 2010!

Now my only worry is that he will put my thoughts and reflections in the shade!

Molding of an artistic casting (Kasli Iron Works), 1910. From the album "Views in the Ural Mountains, survey of industrial area, Russian Empire"

Thanks to Jesse for pointing out these amazing colour photos from a century ago. I think it’s a beautiful insight into the country and really captures so much of everyday life in the late Russian Empire. The photos were taken just 6 years before the start of the first revolution, yet remarkably, there was not that much in the way of discontent at large in the country – much of the discontent that would lead to revolution came as a result of the First World War.

The website has only a few of the Library of Congress’ complete collection of photos, and I would love to spend a while looking through the whole lot, but this is enough historical feast to be getting on with for now!
