52 Weeks of No TV

I gave up TV for one year in 2012.  Instead of TV, I made some THING every week.  In hindsight, it was a fecund year. (oh yeah, I used the word fecund)  It was the basis for many projects including my full production of Plasticland:  A Better Place.  It spawned unlikely artistic collaborations, built creative confidence and I got to smash a TV with a golden sledgehammer.  I haven't combed through this blog in awhile but I wanted to peruse it for inspiration.

Week 9's thing - Arbor Day (the teaser)

Arbor Day Teaser Trailer from John Des Roches on Vimeo.

(Let me spread thanks to my collaborators John Des Roches and Devin Assuncao.  I think this is the continuation of a beautiful relationship.  I send you my love and neverending awe of friends who like to hang out and make things together.)

 

Down with TV!

 

Extra! Extra! Extra!  

Know - this is just the teaser to the trailer.

How peaceful hippies endeavor to make smoke EFX.  Using incense, of course.
