A Glimpse of the Past

If you’ve ever taken in the wonders of the night sky, chances are you may be glancing into the distant past. Even the things you see surrounding you are old news. Well, maybe only mere nano seconds old. “Light travels at about 1 foot per nano second,” says Katie Mack of minutephysics. “Everything you look at is to one degree or another in the past. The farther away in space, the more ancient in time.” Take the Andromeda Galaxy, our Milky Way’s closest neighbor. If you’re lucky enough to see this cosmic giant on a clear evening, you’re viewing it 2.5 million years in the past.

Along Came Anthony Bourdain

Once upon a time, travel shows were stodgy as fuck. Television tourism was populated with pleasant, proper people who strolled the Champs-Élysées or the beaches of Rio to show you how to do pleasant, proper, prepackaged things. Then came Anthony Bourdain. More from Reason.TV.

The Last Great Explorer

Sir Wilfred Thesiger was one of Britain’s last great explorers. In this intimate documentary shot briefly before his death, Thesiger talks about his experiences in the desert, Bin Laden, the American foreign policy and the rapidly changing Arab world.

‘The harder the life, the finer the type, no doubt about that,’ believes Sir Wilfred. Educated in the comfort of Eton and Oxford, he returned to the place of his birth, Africa, to embark on his extensive travels across the Middle East. He learned the ancient code of conduct that made survival in the desert possible: honesty, loyalty, courage, endurance and patience.

Myanmar

Now that Myanmar has opened its doors to tourists, we are beginning to see some intoxicating travelogues taking in the sights in the southeast Asian country, formerly known as Burma. Here’s one of the better introductions to Myanmar, from Patrik Wallner with Visualtraveling. The colors, the culture, the countryside are all reminiscent of neighboring Thailand, but everything looks less developed and commercialized. The visuals here are strong, and so is the accompanying music by Jean-Claude Vannier. H/T Kuriositas

Politics of Travel Guides

“Travel guide writers are obsessed with authenticity,” says Reason Contibuting Editor Michael C. Moynihan. “You’ll find people who say ‘isn’t it adorable when you go to Havana that they have all these Packards from the 1950s?’ Well, no it’s not. This is a pretty grim assessment of the economics of Cuba.”

In a recent piece in Foreign Policy, Moynihan dissects several popular travel guides and finds “the guidebooks are clotted with historical revisionism, factual errors and a toxic combination of Orientalism and pathological self-loathing.”

Moynihan sat down with Reason TV‘s Kennedy to discuss his article, the political and cultural biases in travel guides, and why the burqa should not be considered “a tool for social mobility” as Lonely Planet‘s guide to Afghanistan suggests.
