A visual wander around a world of people and images that interest and excite me. Sometimes a celebration of round pegs in square holes.

I imagine new generations finding a way to connect globally through their technology and going on mass strikes to take down a lot of these corporations, to make governments and corporations understand that the people actually do rule. But the only way that the people can rule is if, by their sheer numbers, they overwhelm. Because what does governments and corporations need from us? Our money and our votes. If we say, ‘We’re not voting and we’re not buying’, and everyone goes on strike for like a week even, they would crumble.”
