Matt D?Arrigo: Art: a force for change
Matt D?Arrigo is CEO and founder of A Reason to Survive (ARTS), a nationally recognized San Diego organization providing arts programs and career preparation for youth facing adversity. His belief in the power of the arts stems from the year he spent caring for his mother and sister as they both battled cancer, during which he relied heavily on his art and love of music to help him face an extraordinary life challenge. A student in the ARTS Empower program was the subject of Inocente, winner of the 2012 Oscar © for best short documentary.

Think this is the talking one. No film for it. The battery is in the film cartridge and I've got no Polaroid 600 film.

I think this is taken on the Île de Porquerolles :)
The water was a bit fresh, but we snorkeled and I saw a squid. Cool. =)
From the archives. Graduation school trip to southern France, Côte d'Azur. Original slide shot on cheap camera in 1994, photographed the projected slide in 2002. Posted today ;)

I think this is likely my favorite shot from the whole shoot. Best viewed large.
This was actually just a test shot, and after this I asked Brandi to brush her hair out of her face, which was clearly a mistake.
Light is provided by a single Canon 430ex bouncing off a 46" white umbrella off lower right, triggered by cable (by a hacked up PC sync cable, modified with 1/8" phono jacks in the middle, and a long phono extension cord).
This shoot was really my first time working so heavily with artificial light, and especially with strobes.
Model is Brandi Tweed.
You might think that this is from somewhere in the deep south, but it's only as far as the southern tip of Illinois. Union County, I think.
I've had virtually no time to get out, so I dug out a few shots I took quite a few years ago with my trusty old PowerShot A620.

41/365. 26/10/08. Think About It recorded live at the BBC in 1968. And the album version. I think I prefer the live version but both show off those flying fingers to great effect. Great riff. Parts of the solo were to be used again in Dazed and Confused.
Demi Lovato Thinks....
I got bored and made this.
This is also on my tumblr. www.tonighteverythingisfine.tumblr.com
oh and if you know the song "Got Dynamite" by Demi Lovato, you should understand this..
I think the Goldfinches enjoyed the afternoon sun as much as the niger seed.
This year I have had lots of American Goldfinches stay to feed. Perhaps it's because the winter hasn't been too bad. As long as the feeder is clean and full, they're happy.
Thank God for this sign.
Please note that it's not like this *used* to be a road at any time. It's never been a road. Ever. Also, you'd have to drive over a giant curb to even get up there. Also, there's another "road closed" sign on the right because it's obviously such a temptation that they need to tell you twice.
Living in Transit: The Thinkers of a World in Turmoil
War looms over Europe, uncertainty seeps into everyday life, and the weight of history presses upon the present. The world is burning, and yet—there are those who seek understanding, those who bury themselves in the quiet refuge of books, the dim glow of libraries, the solitude of knowledge.
This series captures the introspective minds of young academic women—readers, thinkers, seekers. They wander through old university halls, their fingers tracing the spines of forgotten books, pulling out volumes of poetry, philosophy, and psychology. They drink coffee, they drink tea, they stay up late with ink-stained fingers, trying to decipher the world through words.
They turn to Simone Weil for moral clarity, Hannah Arendt for political insight, Rilke for existential wisdom. They read Baudrillard to untangle the illusions of modernity, Byung-Chul Han to understand society’s exhaustion, Camus to grasp the absurdity of it all. They devour Celan’s poetry, searching for beauty in catastrophe.
But they do not just read—they reflect, they question, they write. Their world is one of quiet resistance, an intellectual sanctuary amidst the chaos. In their solitude, they are not alone. Across time, across history, across the pages they turn, they are in conversation with those who, too, have sought meaning in troubled times.
This is a series about thought in transit—about seeking, reading, questioning, about the relentless pursuit of knowledge when the world feels on the brink.
Where the Thinkers Go
They gather where the dust has settled,
where books whisper in the hush of halls.
Pages thin as breath, torn at the edges,
cradling centuries of questions.
They drink coffee like it’s ink,
trace words like constellations,
follow Rilke into the dusk,
where solitude hums softly in the dark.
Outside, the world is fraying—
war threading through the seams of cities,
the weight of history pressing forward.
Inside, they turn pages, searching
for answers, for solace, for fire.
And somewhere between the lines,
between time-stained margins and fading ink,
they find the ghosts of others who
once sought, once wondered, once read—
and they do not feel alone.
Three Haikus
Night falls on paper,
books stacked like silent towers,
thoughts burn in the dark.
Tea cools in the cup,
a poem lingers on lips,
war rumbles beyond.
Footsteps in silence,
the scent of old ink and dust,
pages turn like ghosts.

Reading as Resistance
These young women do not read passively. They underline, they take notes, they write in the margins. They challenge the texts and themselves. They read because the world demands it of them—because, in a time of conflict and uncertainty, thought itself is an act of resistance.
Their books are worn, their pages stained with coffee, their minds alive with the urgency of understanding.

Isabelle Stengers – Another Science is Possible (rethinking knowledge and resistance in an era of corporate science)
Kate Raworth – Doughnut Economics (rethinking economic models for social and ecological justice)
Donna Haraway – Staying with the Trouble (rethinking coexistence and posthumanist futures)
The Future of Thought
These are not just books; they are weapons, tools, compasses. These women read not for escapism, but for resistance. In a time of political upheaval, climate catastrophe, and rising authoritarianism, they seek alternative visions, radical possibilities, and new ways of imagining the world.
Their books are annotated, their margins filled with questions, their reading lists always expanding. Knowledge is not just power—it is revolution.
