Villa Escudero is located in Quezon Province, Philippines, offering a vast hacienda filled with comfortable rooms, and a museum of curious things. Perhaps the most curious thing at the villa is the amazing Waterfalls Restaurant, where lunch is served against an impressive backdrop of thundering clear spring water.

I made this image today and shared it on various places on the interwebs. Basically it asks the question “If you take the money icelandic musicians make off the books (don’t pay any taxes of their income) and deduct the “loss” of income due to copyright infringement.

What is interesting is that many “Liked” it or shared it. I got private feedback about the question in email and phone call form but not one musician has commented on it in any fashion.
