Today at #OurEarth arts residency we had a presentation by Eco-toxicologist Prof Alan Kolok on plastics and plasticisers - depressing but more grist for our artistic mill.
To-do this week FPV the Neo2 drone, make ochre paint and test on wood, timelapse dead tree. NAS classes are over so there's time

Screenshot of an online meeting screen that shows a slide that says "principles of Andean Cosmovision" and is followed by 4 dot points "Relationality - everything exists in a relationship". Correspondence - micro <-> macro". "Complementarity - opposites complete each other". "Reciprocity - give to receive". Several faces of participants can be seen on the right hand side of the image

Into week 2 of the #OurEarth art residency and today was a workshop with Andean cultural advisor Jessica Sarabia which was very interesting and thought provoking.
I have developed an idea for my contribution and this coming week I will be experimenting with local materials to make it

I have decided on what I am going to do as the final work for the #OurEarth art residency. It will be incorporating this tree, local ochres that I will process into pigment, and drone footage. Now I have 5 weeks for research and to pull it off ;)

Many years ago I tweeted this picture with the following text:

“We have NO choice anymore!
We urgently need to #RiseForLifeNOW
- all human beings together, hand in hand
- realizing #OurEarth, #OurOcean and #Biosphere
on/around #OurPlanet
is a source of life,
not a resource.”

Cop30: dozens of countries threaten to block resolution unless it contains roadmap to fossil fuel phase-out Exclusive: The Guardian understands Brazil had been planning to drop a roadmap to a transition away from fossil fuels amid opposition from petro states

Apologies in advance, but:

#FuckRussia #FuckSaudiArabia #FuckTrump & other evolutionary failures who ravage #OurEarth for THEIR greed.

All Cops to date are time wasted if we don't get an enforceable roadmap NOW (which is already 50+ years overdue!)

From our pocket into grants/initiatives to support the destruction of our natural resources, paving over earth. We support their growth, they charge us more and become zillionaires. If THEY aren't paying, that means WE ARE - with #ourbodies #ourminds #ourfreedoms #ourhealth #ourhappiness #ourearth
