\n14th September 2014: Yayasan Sime Darby Arts Festival<\/a>, Day 2, at Kuala Lumpur Performing Arts Centre.<\/p>\n


\nFood booths outside!<\/p>\n


\nNew places take over the old!<\/p>\n


\nAt Deck 2: Xes Xes Loveseat<\/b>.<\/p>\n


\nAt the Lawn…<\/p>\n


\n…Dabus<\/b>, by Kumpulan Dabus Tanjung Bidara.<\/p>\n


\nI wish I noticed as well that the balloons made a cool color gradient!<\/p>\n


\nThese aren’t buttons.<\/p>\n


\nA little black box with screenings!<\/p>\n


\nMagic!<\/p>\n


\nMagical-hair-colored Darren Teh!<\/p>\n


\nAt Pentas 2, Ivan was spotted on one of his many duties…<\/p>\n


\n…with the poppy Froya<\/b>!<\/p>\n


\nOutside, in the Lobby…<\/p>\n


\nNastia<\/b>.<\/p>\n


\nUpstairs, an empty room whose signboard says Kelab Fotografi Shashin KL, Studio 9.<\/p>\n


\nOutdoors, The Traveller<\/b> by Kwangtung Dance Company. I think.<\/p>\n


\nBack in Pentas 2, delightful electronica.<\/p>\n


\n+2dB<\/b>!<\/p>\n


\nOutdoors, a king meets his queen.<\/p>\n


\nOh like chess pieces! I wonder if anyone has tried to play giant chess with this.<\/p>\n


\nThe Lawn clears space for the entrancing Kuda Kepang<\/b> by Kumpulan Kuda Kepang Parit Raja.<\/p>\n


\nThe Sony 135mm F2.8\/T4.5 Smooth Transition Focus makes for the best bokeh.<\/p>\n


\nThe open mic session in Deck 2 sees a familiar face from local 90s band Zero.<\/p>\n


\nAriff AB<\/b> signs up, too!<\/p>\n


\nInside, on the list of attractions…<\/p>\n


\n…is a laid-back Liyana Fizi<\/b>. The stage can be big… but it, and the audience area, feels small and cosy, from the way she addresses the audience.<\/p>\n


\nThis time around, it was just the Sony Alpha 7S and a LA-EA1 modded for full-frame, and the 135mm.<\/p>\n


\nThe bassist learnt Estrella – Take It Slow<\/i>, Liyana’s old band’s classic, on the spot.<\/p>\n


\nA little help from post-rock\/space-rock Zul of Dirgahayu!<\/p>\n


\nA little falsetto help from her drummer.<\/p>\n


\nThen, a surprise…<\/p>\n


\nNo that’s not a typo – I didn’t switch lenses fast enough to show that it didn’t spell HAPY but HAPPY.<\/p>\n


\nCake!<\/p>\n


\nNever too old to photobomb.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
