the BLUE LAKE project
Time does not exist as minutes, months, and years.
Land does not exist just for building on.
The Blue Lake Project offers viewers a new perspective in which we belong to the earth, instead of the other way around.

Death DIY
The subject of death has become taboo and fearful, and, as such, perpetuates a standardized system that influences how our society has come to perceive and treat it. Death is an inevitable, natural, personal process that has become institutionalized and monetized—co-opting every component—from the body of the deceased to the associated rituals, timing, and psychic impact.
When someone dies, they do not have to be embalmed. The first call does not have to be to the "authorities." The body can be kept at home for 24 hours and, in Oregon, can be buried in a "green" cemetery without a casket, or even your own backyard.

While some gun enthusiasts are looking for higher capacity magazines, more powerful scopes, and faster triggers, others are purposefully reverting to old technology.
