In the Visitor's Centre at the Legislature was what was supposed to be a permanent display about protest in Alberta. It featured my photography and audio extracted from videos I shot. Of course, the UCP government destroyed it. I'll keep documenting the revolution regardless. #yeg #ableg

I spent most of the weekend photographing the Parkland Institute's 29th annual fall conference. This year's theme was Democracy Under Siege: Strengthening the Safeguards. The overall theme was the rise of autocracy and misinformation, and how this is causing democracy to crumble.

Ruach is a Hebrew word meaning "spirit," "wind," or "breath". It refers to the spiritual experience of creating sound, breathing life into tones & modalities. Video is unedited GoPro footage in Vilnius, Lithuania which connects to the theme of movement.
