THE OIL SPILL....
"GRASSROOTS MAPPING" IS CHANGING THE WAY WE TAKE PHOTOGRAPHS...

AND WHAT WE DO TO THIS EARTH.

we must help the worm to die to help the butterfly to be born


"The apocalypse is now! Americans know this, that the only hope is the flying saucers. Do you know how I see the world? Like a person who is dying. It's a worm who is dying to make a butterfly. We must not stop the worm from dying, we must help the worm to die to help the butterfly to be born. We need to dance with death. This world is dying, but very well. We will make a big, big enormous butterfly. You and I will be the first movements in the wings of the butterfly because we are speaking like this."
~ ~ Alejandro Jodorowsky

RE-BIRTHED


AN UNFORTUNATE DEATH IN FAMILY 
has left me with lots of questions....

Since my grandmother passed, I wonder what family means to future generations. All of my 22 cousins are baby-childs of the capitalist monster. We all left our hometown, accrued record-setting debt, and refuse to move back. What happens to families when the young generations moves all over the world? How will we stick together and maintain the glue....
