‘Industrial Echoes’, Faraj Srour & Neomi Maggeni

0 Comment
Industrial Echoes, Faraj Srour & Neomi Maggeni Israeli musicians Neomi Maggeni and Faraj Srour’s intention was to not only highlight the deeply traumatic experience that whales go through as a result of man made noise but the “far-reaching negative effects of mankind, which travel across great distances, like industrial echoes, and may do more harm than the good we think they do.” “Some oceanic seismic surveys are so powerful, they’re able to silence whole communities of whales for weeks. This unfortunate fact prompted us to look into noise pollution in the oceans and its effects on marine life. We intended to highlight the facts, as well as connect to the listener on a deeper level using sound. We collected data...

‘The Conservation’, Øyvind Engevik (Engwind)

0 Comment
Norwegian CG artist and director, Øyvind Engevik’s The Conservation considers the idea of a “backup planet”, where humans have to harvest “Earth’s seed” to build a new home. “We push because we must. We push because we are too late. We push because we no longer have a choice. We remember the melting glaciers. We remember the burning forests. We remember the dry lake beds. We regret not listening to the voices. We regret not noticing the signs. We regret not acting sooner. So, we must push. We must push to breathe. We must push to survive. We are busy keeping the tree alive. We are busy keeping hope alive. We are too busy to keep surviving like this. So, we will perish...

Indigenous Culture: The Hunter’s World

Photography by Elijah Wesley Text by Harvey A. Feit Because animals are gifts, it is appropriate to ask Cree hunters, “Who gives the animal?” Their answers lead us to features of Cree logic and cosmology. Recurrent answers are that animals do not only give themselves, but they are given by the “wind persons” and by God (Higher Power, Creator, or Providence). Just as animals are like persons, so are phenomena that we do not consider to be living. Active phenomena such as winds and water, as well as God and various spirit beings, are all considered to be like persons or to be associated with person beings. Because all sources of action are like persons, the explanations of the causes...

Investment banks to divest from fossil fuels

0 Comment
Extinction Rebellion is a citizens-driven international movement using non-violence and civil disobedience to persuade governments to act justly on the Climate and Ecological Emergency. The actions we perform usually include art to attract and retain the public’s attention. Israel is a country with many demonstrations and problems and it’s not easy catching the eyes of the public or of the media. Art helps us demonstrate our message in a blunt, clear and beautiful manner. In our series of actions against investment banks – demanding they divest from fossil fuels – we used art many times. The photos come from two actions. The first one is a meal of investment “pigs” lunching on oil and on our expense. The second is a...
