Just posted our newest ‘episode’. It is a re-presentation of an excellent documentary made in 2006 by Na Maka o ka Aina for Earthjustice, the non-profit public interest law firm. A quick summary:

When the biotech industry decides to use the lands and people of Hawaii as its test guinea pig, local farmers, activists, researchers, and others speak out.

Hi. Pinky and I are finally back in the desert and production on our multi-part Hawaii project is already moving forward. Tentatively we are thinking that it will end up being a four-part project. Part 1 is a two-take quickie tour of the island of Oahu and kind of functions like an introduction. Part 2 is about colonialism and settler colonialism. Part 3 is a case study of colonial space. Part 4 is kind of like an oral history piece. We may add other parts later. Hawaii is an amazing and complex place and I hope we will be going back soon in order to learn more.

Also the fish in Hawaii is fantastic.

We have a very nice interview with Captain Charles Moore of Algalita Marine Research Foundation - click here to read it.

By the way, Capt. Moore and crew just finished their month-long 2008 expedition through the North Pacific Gyre. The AMRF website has an excellent blog with lots of photos that documents the entire voyage with daily entries. If you like the PS interview I think you will enjoy reading the blog too. You can find it here (note: the entries are posted blog-style, with the earliest entries at the bottom of the page and the most recent at the top - in other words you gotta read these things backwards).

Stay away from those plastics.
