Mysteries of the Heart

William Harvey once stated that "I profess to learn and teach anatomy not from books but from dissections, not from the tenets for philosophers, but from the fabric of nature." When it came to discovering how things worked, William Harvey cut right to the heart of the matter. How blood circulates is a mystery that was solved by an English physician William Harvey, in the seventeenth century. The question that plagued him was, what…

POLY ROCK'RZ take up the challenge

Our group the POLY ROCK'RZ took up the challenge on the 11th day of the 11th month of the 11th year of the new millennium. It was an overcast day that did not make for great lighting for filming but the activity went ahead.

We had 11 young volunteers take up the challenge to be part of Niue's first contribution to this One Day on Earth initiative. The concept was based on getting 11 young people to complete 11 fun activities on the day and show off some of the islands natural…

Date: 11.11.11 Object + Place.

This performance is a reflection, a very personal response to Veterans Day. I drove to a nearby National Park - Golden Gate National Recreation Area, just North of San Francisco, CA. I hiked a short distance up a bluff to a historic structure, once an active part of Fort Cronkhite called Battery Townsley. In 1940 two 16 - inch caliber guns, each capable of shooting a 2,100 pound, armor-piercing projectile 25 miles out to sea…

In honor of Veteran's Day

I submitted two photos taken on 11.11.11, both of a Vietnam Veteran named Jack. He sat in his wheelchair on the Pearl Street Mall in Boulder, Colorado, USA, holding a sign that described his experience and needs. I noticed how kind he looked and stopped to say hello and give him some help. In exchange for a portrait, he asked only for an iced tea. Jack told me he had been stationed all over Vietnam, including "The Hilton" - the notorious prison where many American soldiers were…

California Central Coast

My day began at the Bartleson Ranch in Arroyo Grande. My brother manages this ranch where they grow lemons and avocados; I shot the photo of a hawk riding updrafts over the avocado trees there.

My number one reason for being on California's central coast, though, was to support my brother at the launch of a business has nurtured to fruition for a decade; Casta Negra…

One day in my life

One day in my life which I want to relive and which I do not want to forget is the day when I went out with my family for a day-out.

It was a wonderful experience and we had loads of fun together.

We went to the India Gate, the Japanese Park, Bilra Temple and Chhatrapur Temple.

We even went to have lunch at a restaurant and after that, we went to the Lotus Temple, Qutab Minar, The iron Pillar, and went to the Ambience Mall which is the biggest mall in India.

We enjoyed a…

Teargas and a hug from a nationalist



Mars der Patriotten, Wrocław, Polen


When I was a little alternative girl I walked in a protest march once. I didn't quite know what it was about, I think it was against the enrichment of uranium or something like that. At that time I wasn't sure as well, but I went to…

One Day In my life

Today, I pretty much slept all day, but I did do something different. I went out for Thai food, which was delicious, and I also am getting ready to make a whirligig inspired by music, which in my case is Percussion. I started my first Jazz song as a Pianist. I started playing piano in the Summer and it's worked out really well.
