The Cape Argus Cycle Tour in Cape Town



 In just under 3 hours, womyn and men of the Cape Argus Cycle Tour completed the ride from Cape Town's city centre and back again on the most beautiful peninsula of the world.  I woke up on Sunday morning to cheers and clapping for the dedication of cyclists making their way around Boyes Drive in Muizenberg.  Just steps from our home was a refueling spot of blue energy drink and I managed to capture some young faces touring their own city's landscape on their self-powered bicycles.  It was a gorgeous Sunday of hope and positivity to watch thousands of people travel through the city.

Earth Movements, what 8.9 looks like

Trail of Shock - Massive Japan Quake: First Photos - Photo Gallery - LIFE
Is Earth quake-shaking us to wake up? Should we be so humancentric to think these disasters are happening because of us or are we just a part of a natural cycle?
It's up to us how we react to these movements, will it be a spark similar to the seismological chart or will we drown in the sweeping depths of our preoccupied mind?
Visually, humanely, environmentally 8.9 has many faces. Let's share strength, courage and continued support to all our coastlines receiving the magnitude on a physical level.

Imported from Detroit

"This is what we do"

  Make cars?

Detroit is more than just a Motor City.  
 Imagine Metro-Detroit urban sprawl contracted back towards the center?
How would it grow?
Would we build it up with auto tire building material?
Would it become Tire city? Earthship City?  A prized example of environmental design?
Will the Motor City continue to progress by using old practices or innovating new ones?



This picture was taken July 2010: Heidelberg Project, Detroit

Detroit City has more features to build upon than Eminem, Fox Theatre and Chrysler Commercials.  There is room to define "This is what we do" and there are images from Detriot that will be shared to provoke positive questions and a redefinition of Detroit.

Graffiti Art on the Street talks back-Durban, South Africa


  We build walls, we break walls.

  We climb walls, we bomb walls.

 We stare at walls, we wonder . . . if walls could talk.

  We paint walls, so they talk back.
