On one side was Net Neutral-i-kitty, representing the millions of Internet users who had spoken out for Net Neutrality over the past year.

He was well aware that the advanced cancer that took his lung has now traveled to his brain. There seemed to be no fear of death, rather deep contemplation and reflection.

I think this was the same day as the FCC's ruling on net neutrality.... so my mind started thinking about dead end for cable companies which want to gouge consumers with expensive slow internet.
A celebratory gathering in the Mile-End area of the Plateau in Montreal. This event was for the welcoming of the son of a Rabbi from New York. The crowd was huddled together with anticipation, banners and flags. The whole street was a buzz of excitement. I was fortunate to have been invited by a friend who lives near by to witness and record the event.
As I was watching this crowd, my mind traveled to the days of my own forefathers who were Jews living in Eastern Europe and although one hundred plus years ago, they looked and dressed very similarly to the Hassidim living here in Montreal today. But the feeling that stood out the most for me was the fact that although, as a Jew, we share a common heritage, I felt very disconnected and remote from these people. I could hear their chatter and even could understand the Yiddish they were speaking. Yet I found them as curious and as distant from me as any one of the individuals of other cultures in the neighborhood who stood by watching the festivities.

Christo came to Canada’s University of Toronto to discuss the New York Central Park Gates project as well as to present an overview from his own perspective of many others of his projects. I had the opportunity to briefly speak with him and present him with a DVD of my own short, 20 minute, documentary production of the gates. I found him charming and witty, humble and above all very spiritual. He was graciously grateful for my modest gift.

this is how the shot came out of the camera - no photo manipulation
In his penetrating eyes I saw sadness. Some of it I ubderstood from what I knew, yet some of it came from the depths of his private thoughts.
I believe his style of music is Peruvian. He can be seen in Montreal at most street festivals with his guitar, electric amp and pipe flute. I believe I remember a base drum with a pedal as well. I bought one of his CDs which he had sitting inside the guitar case.

I photographed my TV screen. You gotta hand it to Bill Moyers - his producers are hip. Blip.tv showed up on this laptop screen for ten seconds about a half hour into the October 18, 2006 airing of Moyers on America: The Net at Risk. Go watch the episode at PBS.org: www.pbs.org/moyers/moyersonamerica/net/index.html and then go tell your U.S. Senator and Representative and the FCC to protect Net Neutrality.
