Isolation: Bombay Beach

November 21, 2021 editor

Two chairs sit ready for a couples therapy session, in juxtaposition between Michael Daniel Birnberg’s (also known as Midabi) “The Only Other Thing is Nothing.”

The message is profound in the context of the relationships we have with others as members of the human race. Midabi created the installation for the 2019 Bombay Beach Biennale.

Sailing the Salton Sea from Bombay Beach.

April 10, 2021 editor

The owners of this cat took it for a sail across the Salton Sea from the shores of the abandoned but not forgotten Bombay Beach marina earlier this week, a most unusual sight, to be sure.

Thoughts for the new year... #BombayBeach People are asking me what I'm doing for the holidays. I recently joined the Fullerton Drone Lab team on location just off The Ortega Highway deep into the Cleveland National Forest at the destroyed Blue Jay Campground as the team surveyed the burn areas impacted by the September 2024 Airport Fire. The Upper Newport Bay Nature Preserve and Ecological Reserve, known as “The Back Bay” to locals, boasts over 1,000 acres of preserved and pristine #wetlands, is home to over 200 endangered species and 35,000 migratory birds. In 1968, artist Tom Van Sant created a series of 39 panels for the Irvine Company he called “Indigenous Inhabitants” that captured Orange County, California’s regional wildlife (some which are extinct now). Look who's joining us at the dinner table on Thanksgiving! The Fullerton Drone Lab brought out the dogs for the 2025 Huntington Beach Pacific Air Show. A few snaps from the 2025 Huntington Beach Pacific Air Show. In the air and on the tarmac at SNA
