Overview
I first visited Lamma island in 2009 and gave a concert on the beach, seen in the Eco(u)stic video, where I told the story of the mutineers from The Bounty and how they had built a schooner, named the Resolution, and how it was captured when they were re-captured in Tahiti and how it escaped later with five men aboard and made it all the way across the pacific from Tofua, near Tonga to Timor where it was given as a gift to the Dutch Governor. Late in its life, much like Stevenson's ship, it turned up on the North American coast hunting sea otter. It made a voyage from China to Hawaii in record time and was, later on,wrecked 'somewhere in the South China Sea, maybe near Hong Kong near Lamma Island? The soundtrack is edited from field recordings made on Lamma.
