With Nature in Mind: Organic Gardening at UW Bothell/Cascadia Community College

Multimedia, My work, Sustainability, UW Bothell, Video


 
I’m happy to share the second installment of the With Nature in Mind video series I am working on for the University of Washington Bothell and Cascadia Community College in partnership with Jim Perich-Anderson. UWB/CCC has an inspiring staff that is leading the way in organic gardening and landscape management. They have completely phased out pesticides and herbicides while using goats, composting, and a host of other solutions to create a beautiful campus. The music for the video was composed by UW Bothell recruiter and musician Ramon Stephens. I am especially proud of this great campus because I am an alumnus of UW Bothell’s Master of Arts in Cultural Studies program.
 

Olympic Peninsula Photos

My work, Still photography, Travel, University of Washington

I had a great opportunity today to continue my photo essay of the Olympic Peninsula as seen through photos from an instant camera (my Fujifilm Instax 210). I happened to be in Port Townsend, Washington doing some filming for the University of Washington’s very impressive National Center on Quality Teaching and Learning in Head Start. After my shoot I continued my instant camera project. Here are a couple of new pictures below. See more from the photo essay in older blog posts here and here.

 

 

 

 

The Influence of Religion on International Politics Conference Photo

My work, Seattle, Still photography, University of Washington

I spent another day clinging onto my history of six years of University of Washington education while photographing a very interesting conference today for the Henry M. Jackson School of International Studies held on campus in the Walker Ames room in Kane Hall. The conference, in honor of Dr. Daniel Chirot, was titled The Influence of Religion on International Politics. Below, Professor Paul Froese of Baylor University presents his work, Religion’s Influence on American Politics From a Global Perspective. He had some very very intriguing insight into Rick Santorum and the rest of the Republican presidential candidates, which was especially timely for me since I am in the middle of covering the campaigns as they roll through Washington state.
