@ Non-Ya---Yes, they filmed at the Morgan Yacht Building, this was part of my interview. To back up a bit, my interview was to be in the car, while driving. Saturday after a few interviews they packed up all the equipment, and we all pilled into different vehicals and down the road we went. The first stop was at the Morgan Yacht Building, I was interviewed again whilst infront of the building. Then they asked Kpickle and I to take them for a walk around the building to show them a part of Tyrone Blvd. were Kpickle had explained the many hours he spent gazing at the cars as they drove over the overpass. He also explained that for years now, after the fact, how he screams and shoots a bird at the building as he drives over the road.
From there we went to my first building, which was the Milton Roy Building, which was particulary chilling. Because a memory surfaced of the "out door raps" we once had the luxury of having...of which I can remember no more than four. The crew was also shown the previous bulding, the Ray-Haul/RayHall building, which was the second building, directly across the way from the Milton Roy Building. The irony, this was the building which held the SEED, several years ago. The crew even noticed how far from society we were held. With the songs, the screaming, the stand-ups, the come-downs, there were few if any that ever heard our "noise". We spoke of the 'splits' that occured at the Morgan Yacht Building, how runners were chased into Tyrone mall by a mob of phasers. And how people were almost jaded to see one child being chased by a group of 15-20 of teenagers, and thought little and did even less about it. And how if caught by any legal agency, the law, the fire department, HRS, truancy officers, literaly any place a child could run for help....were immediately and without question returned to the respective buildings.
Of course the Morgan Yacht Building is/was completely surrounded by a 7-8 foot fence. Even tho the building is now occupied by a Marine Comapny, selling boat motors and boat stuff. Which in and of it self propably doesnt need a 8 foot barrier fence. But the buildings previous tenent was Ratheon, a major Defence Contractor, probably did. In fact the many cameras we witness still attached to the building, covering at least every angle of the property, were left overs from the Ratheon people. But who knows...fact is the cameras are still there.
Another thing I noticed and thought odd...however briefly..were the vehicles that passed us on the street. Just like the old days, people honked and hollered out the window. It made me think and wonder if the neighboring people still remembered the horrors and the reputations the building had.
Even the old Man that sat in the reception area Mr. Ed was discussed, with his arsenal of runners...It was difficult to have thousands of memories and only be able to recal and discuss but a few....but soooooooooooooo empowering and cleansing.
I am still trying to write my experience of the weekends activities.....Soooooo much to write, so little time, time to get my fingers to keep up with the out pouring of memories.
Looks like I will have to blow off another day of work and sit with my fingers to the keyboard...Which I will gladly do, without any reservation...soooooo, more to come...Here and on the other sites.
Much Peace!
Continued Healing!
