Here's my first permanent public artwork, "Periscopes." When you look through its bulbous lenses, you see scenes that might seem faraway, such as heron stalking their prey; but all of the footage was filmed (by me) within 10mi of its site at Buzzard Point in southwest Washington, D.C., USA.
I worked with a team to install this artwork yesterday. Steelwork by Steven R. Jones.

Here's a video view that gives you a sense of what it's like to peer in the screen. The scenes are fairly still, changing every 30-60 seconds; not dynamic enough to watch like a video per se, but more like an ever-changing picture frame.

«È curioso che si chieda a noi di fare un passo indietro e si tratti con uno Stato genocida, che da anni viola ogni norma e convenzione. Noi sappiamo di avere dalla nostra il diritto internazionale», dice a Repubblica David Adler, ebreo americano

@codinghorror The ideology finds its most adherents in US whose elites were historically plutocrats not military types as in Europe. Libertarinism is the perfect ideology for them, so they push it via their channels. Outsiders were baffled after 2008 crisis libertarinism (you needed purer capitalism bro) was not discredited in US along with the rest of the right-wing ideologies, imo this is why.

A word on burnout & feeling strung out because "I can't save all the things that need saving."
Democracy is supposed to be a mosaic and a relay race. We never have to take care of the whole ourselves.
In fact if we do, it kinda stops being democracy.
