Same stance; nothing changed in 2000 years.

"Mission Statement for a (Photo) Project: Having a child is hard. Not only in the pure, physical responsibility, but also psychologically. Axioms and basic truths premised upon experience are upended in an instant. All of life is reopened for questioning, for re-exploration, and its suddenness is breathtaking in its brutality.
And as you are breaking down and rebuilding, so the familiar around you mutates into something new. What was large is now small, closed, constricted. And what was open and free is now daunting and threatening and filled with danger and potential menace at worst, inconvenience at best.
This is not about claustrophobia or agoraphobia per-se. This is rather concerned with the fluidity of my own interpretation of familiar spaces - of my life - when assaulted from outside by this new permanent resident within it."
I began this abandoned project following the birth of my daughter in 2011. The above was my mission statement to come to terms with what, at the time, was so overwhelming. I rediscovered it today following a visit to The Photographers' Gallery's exhibition "Home Truths" concerning women's sense of identity following birth. I was trying to do the same thing from a father's perspective...
President Barack Obama makes the case for a continuation of four more years to finish the job begun with his first election in 2008. "I recognize that times have changed since I first spoke to this convention. The times have changed – and so have I.", he said, recognizing the demands ahead for addressing issues facing the United States." Photo by Mike Fritz/PBS NewsHour
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M., -- Brig. Gen. Michael Wehr (left) conducted a change of command ceremony where command responsibility transferred from outgoing District Commander Lt. Col. Jason Williams (holding flag) to incoming District Commander Lt. Col. Antoinette Gant, on July 12. This transfer of leadership was physically represented by passing the ceremonial flag from the old commander to the new. The custom of acknowledging the change in commanding officer dates back to, at least, Roman times.
The District’s area of responsibility includes the entire state of New Mexico, as well as portions of southern Colorado and far west Texas. The District performs design, construction and operations and maintenance services for three Air Force bases and conducts a robust civil works program.

Can changing your mind change your life?
Not in and of itself, but you have to change your mind to change your choices, and that will affect your life.

The Apollo Effect
Posters of the "Change of Era" exhibition are all over town.
In the middle is a slide from the exhibition, of my dearly missed friend, Thierry Kazazian, who initiated the project 2 years ago.
Some of the people in the shots are bystanders, some are my friends with whom I was lucky enough to work with on this project in it's early stages. We came together from all over the world to see the exhibition and honour Thierry's memory.

Hansens flødeis (Hansen ice-cream) changed the name of the ice 'Eskimo' to 'O'Payo'. Same ice, new name.
The ice cream was called 'Eskimo' since 1922 - not only by Hansens but several producers had an Eskimo ice.
The danish people called the inhabitants of Greenland for 'Eskimoes', but the word 'Eskimo' means something like "raw meat eater".
To day it's not political correct to use the name 'Eskimo', so the company changed the name - to the name of the chocolate they use.
And other companies do the same now.
100 volunteers joined the Climate Impacts Day Vietnam in Can Gio Biosphere
Reserve in Ho Chi Minh City, where they planted trees in the park, did a
beach clean-up, and the trash they collected were made into installation
art exhibitions on the beach to convey climate change messages. They also
made a big dot with climate change photos from the national photo contest
that 350 Vietnam launched in April.
But the greatest thing is that 05/05 is only the beginning. In the coming
weeks, the Connect the Dots Vietnam campaign will continue with planting a
thousand trees along the dykes in the most flooded district in HCMC,
reinforcing the dykes and clearing up water hyacinth on the river branches
to reduce impacts, and building climate leadership skills for young people.
On each of the trees they planted, they hung a dot with different messages.
In this photo, the dot is the Climate Impacts Day logo.

"350" garden -- a project in progress.
This garden was created in an old meadow, showing how food can be grown with a minimum of tools and time...
Last year, we prepared garden beds in 3,5 and 0 shapes with hand tools only -- a two-pronged hoe to dig and a scythe to cut mulch.
On 10/10/10, we took this project one step further;
Although the flowering sun chokes (jerusalem artichokes) in the "3" are still standing and the "5" is only roughly dug to harvest the vegetables, the "0" has been worked up to a fine seedbed -- the inner oval now planted in garlic, the outer heavily mulched with scythe-mown vegetation in preparation for spring seeding. A portion of the crop of potatoes and sun chokes harvested from the "5" and "0" make up the 350 in the centre of the 0.
