GBK Media: Earth Day Expo Video Slideshow
Wednesday, May 7th, 2008Join me in celebrating the launch of GBK Media by sharing this video slideshow with your friends!
You can find GBK Media on YouTube at this address: youtube.com/gbkmedia. The only all green all Brooklyn video channel on Earth!
Photos and video by yours truly — Ethan Oringel — with the photos taken at Habana Outpost’s awesome — and hopefully annual — Earth Day Expo 2008!
Many thanks to Habana Outpost’s Sean Meehan and Darcy Le Fleming.
And also thanks to Antibalas Afrobeat Orchestra for — unbeknownst to them — providing the soundtrack (audio taken from a live show of theirs at Southpaw in Park Slope on April 11, 2008).
You can see, comment on, and share these individual photos at my Brooklyn photo set on flickr.
