This Is Planet Ed
Project launch for The Aspen Institute:
We will unlock the power of education to be a force for climate action. We believe children and youth will lead the fight against climate change, and we must empower them to advance a more sustainable, resilient, and equitable future. This is Planet Ed envisions an education system in which children and youth of all ages, from birth to postsecondary, thrive in their communities and are empowered to take meaningful action.
Neighborhood Equity
A new poster campaign for this place and the people who make it great. inCOMMON alleviates poverty at a root level by uniting and strengthening vulnerable neighborhoods. The posters are designed to be vibrant and hopeful and to reinforce the very important ideas at the core of what inCOMMON is all about:
The zip code where we start shouldn’t limit where we go
Neighborhood development should not equal neighbor displacement
Neighborhood change is driven by neighborhood leaders
Favorite Song Topics
I always come back to songs about:
Friendship
Love/Pain
Existence
Rising to meet the challenge
What design can do
Design does not resort to violence. And it does not call others names. It can be seen as an attack and that’s fine. It certainly picks a side. Design is not neutral. Buy, sell, share, signup, donate, march, protest, demand justice.
When What You Got Ain’t Enough
Then what?
Hard to say.
That’s the measure, is it not?
Home Edition Exhibition
Wignall Museum of Contemporary Art
September 6 – November 12, 2022
Chaffey College and the Wignall Museum of Contemporary Art proudly present Home Edition. When the pandemic hit the U.S. in 2020 and we began to isolate, we had to rethink the ways in which we would connect to students, faculty, artists and community members. Like other cultural institutions and organizations, we worked to provide materials for our audiences that were virtually accessible. In addition, we wanted the content we developed to be thoughtful, relevant, and we wanted it to advance the collective missions of the college and museum. The result was a virtual series of curated conversations and lectures with artists, workshops and tutorials, and other collaborative programs that we called Home Edition.
