Networks and Abstract
Posted on July 6, 2011 | No CommentsIt’s hard to believe that two and a half weeks have gone by since my Masters defense! Since then, I have had the (40 page) thesis support document copy-edited and I have put together a DVD of all the installation media content–both of which were... -
Judgement Day!
Posted on June 17, 2011 | No CommentsOn this day of my Master’s defense, here is a review of some of the pivotal moments throughout this journey: The Interviews So many interviews had an impact on me. They all did in fact. Some however, resonated with the audience in ways that I... -
Installation After-math
Posted on June 4, 2011 | No CommentsWhat a fabulous experience! Last weekend, was my long awaited documentary-media/graduation installation at Inglenook Community High School. Between the Doc Now audience and the audience who came as a result of the Doors Open Toronto that Inglenook was a part of, a large variety of... -

Inglenook It Is!
Posted on April 13, 2011 | No CommentsChoosing the right space for my documentary media installation was a challenge. Initially, it was clear. It would have be in a classroom that resembled my Alma mater, Villa-Maria (which, because it’s in Montreal was not an option for the Toronto finale). Why would Villa... -
Wrong Audience, Good Advice
Posted on March 26, 2011 | 3 CommentsThere’s nothing more valuable than constructive criticism, wouldn’t you say? And somehow, the under 16yr crowd often gives it to you straight. I returned to CICO alternative school this week to seek out the opinions of the (fifteen or so) students and (three) teachers regarding... -
Digging Through Text
Posted on February 24, 2011 | No CommentsFifteen interviews of high school instructors and learners are officially transcribed. To celebrate, I will eat a bag of chips, curse that foolish decision (post consumption) and then begin to analyze the material to determine which comments will make the cut…or be cut from the... -
OMG, we’re dumb!
Posted on February 8, 2011 | No CommentsI feel so invaded! I’m reading my way through several books about education and I just picked up John Taylor Gatto’s Dumbing Us Down (1992). For those of you who have read it, you’re probably chuckling and thinking to yourself “yep, I felt the same...
