Art on the streets

I've read a lot about art on the streets this week...

Abandoned storefronts in SF to be turned into gallery space for art installations. More info here. This should become a permanent policy!

There's a telephone tree tour in the Bronx--this sounds SO RAD! 100 trees along the Grand Concourse tell the oral history of the Bronx. More info and sample audio here.

too many blogs too little time.


Fog City USA.

Getting psyched for a Portland trip...but I still have yet to blog of all the cool things from my DC trip...indicative of my life lately. A lot of things going on, but little in the way of focus or organization. Maybe focus and organization is overrated, or impossible to achieve. Or maybe it's this ever-present fog that is making me hazy.

My new blog...

Holla! I've finally started my food/enviro/urban sustainability blog. FINALLY.
Check it here: www.roottofruit.blogspot.com

The idea is to talk about the connections between food-environment-and urban sustainablity. Telling these stories through my own experiences and experiments with citysteading. And share cool stuff and interesting events I find on all of the above. The hope is to begin to collaborate with the inspiring people I've met along the way, eventually including interviews and guest posts and even broaden the scope beyond the Bay Area (from AZ to NY to Colombia?). Who knows where it will go--but it will keep me writing and exploring and shooting photos on the issue I love. And leave me the freedom to post other silly stuff here on treeographer.

Feel free to pass along the blog to anyone you think would be interested. Check it out, and if you hear of any good events, ideas, or if you come across people I should talk to, let me know. Comments welcome!
