February project: Haunani-Kay Trask

I’m in the middle of working on our “February project.” I’m guessing a lot Pinky Show friends probably already know Haunani-Kay Trask (1949-2021) as a political leader, activist, writer, poet, and so on. But the material I’m working on focuses more on her work as an educator.

Daisy gave us a few boxes of notes, files, and video tapes from a project he did with Haunani-Kay Trask over 20 years ago. Part of what makes it a difficult project for me is because there’s a lot of technical issues that have to be overcome - for example, lots of the source material is on tapes, CD-ROMS, and (dead) hard drives that can’t easily be accessed. But the information is very important, so I’m trying to get it out there.

Wish me luck! :)

Our longest title so far: On Native Land : Mail Art Story : Death-ball Visits Art Gallery, or, When is the logic of faraway death not faraway enough?

It's after midnight and I'm so sleepy. I just wanted to let you know that I just finished posting the  documentation for this project from last year. I hope you enjoy it looking at it!

See the Death-ball! >>

It's not just old stuff around here. Drittens is working on some new stuff too. I notice he’s veeery slowww though. I take a long time to do stuff too but that's more because I'm unfocused and kinda lazy. ~k.
