"Another great turnout in Spokane by the sane people who are against the proposed coal terminal in Longview.
A very big thank you to the folks who traveled from Montana and Idaho to speak their mind and show unity with all who oppose this bad idea to kill people and destroy our environment to "create" a few obsolete jobs. Most of which are simply temporary in nature.
"Also a GIANT THANK YOU to Eric, Martin and all the Backbone organization for your support to make this as visual and energetic as possible. We always love to see you not because you all are so effective and organized but we also think the world of you as people and Warriors for what is best for humanity and our environment. We were able to show the Corporations what the people really want for this region.
Also thank you to all the Tribal members who have shown your support and your fight to help motivate us all. We are all in this fight together.
Every red shirt attending and any supporters including elected officials should feel proud to stand with the majority even when it feels like a minority. We are on the right side of history.
Light projection of abstract things and on the National Library of Australia (NLA) - Canberra Day long weekend 2012
Vivid Sydney is a unique winter festival of light, music, and ideas.
Vivid 2015 will run from the 22nd of May until the 8th of June 2015.
Entitle: Artist: Amanda Parer
Entitle is an elaborate light installation designed in the 18th-century Rococo style and crafted using the traditional techniques of Chinese lantern- making. Covering 10 sq m, the artwork features four large decorative towers, heavily ornamented with gold and brightly coloured flowers, which surround a base displaying a light-sculpture of a mother pig and her suckling young.
Whilst it channels the ornamental excess of the Rococo, Entitle is not intended to be just a decorative piece. Instead, artist Amanda Parer uses the work to make a statement about the consequences of overly indulgent contemporary lifestyles. The pig represents gluttony, and the flowers adorning the towers are not the pretty European flora that featured in the Rococo; instead, they are extinct species. The piglets feeding from their mother represent the “entrenched sense of multi-generational entitlement” that exists in Western culture.
In Europe during the 1700s, the Rococo was a period of excess. For those who could afford it, the lifestyle of the period was highly indulgent and based on the pursuit of pleasure at the expense of the other strata of society. The artwork of the time is reflective, with intricate floral and pattern designs featuring fanciful curves and the use of gold and bright colours.
Entitle references both Eastern and Western culture to enhance the theme of overindulgence using the lavish Chinese lantern technique, the overly ornate Rococo-inspired design and the symbolism of the greedy pig.

Each night during Vivid, the exquisite light shows will feature a hand-picked collection of artists working alongside Joseph to create an ever-changing visual feast, matched only by divine fare from a collection of Sydney’s hippest purveyors.

Affinity: Artists: amigo & amigo (Simone Chua & Renzo B. Larriviere ) + S1T2 (Chris Panzetta & Naimul Khaled)

Explore the mystery of our brains, where our most precious memories live.
Affinity is an ingenious large-scale lighting installation that attempts to depict the dazzling complexity and connectivity of the human brain. Participants step within an intricate web of interconnected orbs representing neurons in the brain. When stimulated by touch, the orbs set-up a striking display of sound and light, representing the rapid-fire transmission of messages between neurons.
The work was inspired by the electrochemical activity of the brain, in which 100 billion neurons fire impulses up to 200 times per second. The electrical signals that pass between neurons control everything we do and think. The sculpture explores the effects of Alzheimer's on our memories within this environment.
Those viewing Affinity arrive to find a web of darkened globes lying dormant except for a small, curious trail of light that bounces playfully between them. However, as participants touch each globe, colourful light streams flow outwards into the sculpture and link to another orb.

Vivid Light transforms Sydney into a wonderland of 'light art' sculptures, innovative installations and grand-scale projections for all to enjoy.
May 23 - 9 June 2014
A 3D-mapped projection transforms the façade of Customs House into a series of massive ‘musical sculptures’, in a poetic explosion of light, colour and sound. Each of these ‘sculptures’ depicts a family of musical instruments which you can ‘play’ in real time. Take your place in front of throngs of festival-goers and create a visual and sonic masterpiece on the face of this iconic Sydney edifice. Vivid Sydney is delighted to welcome back Danny Rose, the design team that last year created an extravaganza of colour and light on the façade of Customs House, with Move Your Building. This year, the team again transforms the frontage of this historic landmark to bring you Play Me! , another breathtaking, interactive, 3D-mapped projection. You select one of the ‘musical sculptures’ from a touch screen, get onto a platform in front of Customs House and ‘play’ the sculpture, bringing it to life in glorious torrents of ever-changing colour, light, form and sound.

If Earned Media is any indication of of where we stand in the fight for
climate and environmental justice and a sustainable future against coal
exports, than the tide has turned in favor of activists and the
communities we strive to protect. The coal export battle is truly being
fought in the court of public opinion. Giant-sized sympathetic visuals
conveying the values we stand for and what threatens them, and an
engaging experience that helped communities feel a sense of shared power
were all prominent in the earned mainstream media coverage in Spokane
that included two television spots and the front page on their local
paper. The iconic imagery resonates so well that those in a position to
decide the regulations and even the coal export proponents were enamored
with it, excited, and joyful as they took pictures of and with it. We're
grateful to our supporters through whose support we're able to make sure
this critical flank of the fight is present to amplify, inspire, and

Special thanks is owed to Spokane

Skylark is a vast play of light stretching from the Sydney Harbour Bridge and Circular Quay to the outer areas of Sydney Harbour.
Created by Iain Reed of 32 Hundred Lighting, Skylark incorporates interactive lighting of the bridge and Circular Quay skyscrapers, and this year, in a first for Vivid Sydney, incorporates a new, fully interactive custom-built laser, double the strength of any laser ever seen before on Sydney Harbour.

Guerrilla Light Projection in the streets of Seattle demanding Money Out Of Politics and calling for a Rebellion for Real Democracy!!!
Join the Rolling Rebellion for Real Democracy at RollingRebellion.org
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
IF you treasure the self-evident, endowed by creator, unalienable rights which the Declaration of Independence celebrated and promised this new country would uphold;
IF you abhor corporations claiming those unalienable rights as "corporate persons;" and think billionaires manipulating elections with their wealth is corrupting our democracy to the core;
THEN you probably agree that it is time to tap into the United States' revolutionary roots and in the spirit of the Declaration of Independence instigate a nonviolent American Revolution against oligarchic rule.
All across America, from New Hampshire to California, We the People are beginning to rise up in an autonomous, nonviolent, and rolling rebellion for real democracy. The Backbone Campaign, Popular Resistance, and other
allies have created Rolling Rebellion for Real Democracy with an action map and activist toolkits to bolster this burgeoning US Democracy Movement.
From the night of July 4th - July 12th, we are supporting a series of non-violent, artfully rebellious events around the country to get money out of politics, showcase the emergent US Democracy Movement, and spur on its escalating fight for real democracy. Check our action map to join a Rolling Rebellion action near you, or sign up to host your own.
Rebellion is a muscle that must be exercised!
