working for social change
A video has been posted of the talk I gave at the TEDxCalgary in April, 2010. I told 3 stories about my experiences with times where my activist efforts at communicating had a clear impact.
Bringing diverse individuals and groups together to develop a physical space for social change work in Calgary. Ground-level retail (café, bookstore, gallery, eco-shop,…?), meeting rooms, event space (performance, speaker, film, conference,…?), offices, multi-use…
A hub for coordinating communications for Calgarians working on social justice and the environment. Website calendars, group listings, email lists, print newsletters, etc. There’s lots of work to be done to build an effective infrastructure in this city.
I’m developing web tools for democracy and social change. This software is used by sites like Calgary Democracy, Arusha Centre and the Activist Network. I’m looking for Ruby on Rails developers, and web & graphic designers, to contribute.

I’ve selected the winning projects from the vote I held over the past few months. So, I’ll be focusing my efforts on:
