The Earth is our mother just turning around With her trees in the forest and roots underground Our father above us who’s sigh is the wind Paint us a rainbow without any end As the river runs freely the mountain does rise Let me touch with my fingers and see with my eyes In the hearts of the children a pure love still roams Like a bright star in heaven that lights our way home Like the flower that shattered the stone ... Sparrows find freedom beholding the sun In the engine and beauty we're all joined in one I reach out before me and look to the sky Then I hear someone whisper its something pass by As the river runs freely the mountain does rise Let me touch with my fingers and see with my eyes In the hearts of the children a pure love still roams Like a bright star in heaven that lights our way home Like the flower that shattered the stone .... excerpt from words and music by Joe Henry and John Jarvis Your art project was in true stewardship to environmental concerns and reminded me of a John Denver song …

The Earth is our mother just turning around
With her trees in the forest and roots underground
Our father above us who’s sigh is the wind
Paint us a rainbow without any end

As the river runs freely the mountain does rise
Let me touch with my fingers and see with my eyes
In the hearts of the children a pure love still roams
Like a bright star in heaven that lights our way home
Like the flower that shattered the stone …

Sparrows find freedom beholding the sun
In the engine and beauty we’re all joined in one
I reach out before me and look to the sky
Then I hear someone whisper its something pass by

As the river runs freely the mountain does rise
Let me touch with my fingers and see with my eyes
In the hearts of the children a pure love still roams
Like a bright star in heaven that lights our way home
Like the flower that shattered the stone ….

It plays with some mighty topics and I'm not sure it addressed these issues quite enough. I guess I wanted more from this. It was like watching a political cartoon in that the viewer had to fill in the blanks. I though this piece was really interesting.

I found myself thinking of, indeed, my own little narratives like the artists suggests. These short seemingly innocent clips seem to fill endless hours of dialogue. Very witty.

The anxiety I felt initially soon turned into an almost meditative mood. Really an interesting video.

I think that Karie's editing was really key for her message. I felt like this project could have looped and I would still have been just as interested fifteen minutes later. It was graphic and the message was loud and clear. Wow this video was great. I think that Karie’s editing was really key for her message.

It is a piece that grabs my attention and almost dictates how i breath or how my heart beats. crazy. I think that here the sound takes the center stage–the figure dwarfed by the pulse.

I think that this works for her because anyone can approach her videos or her 2D work and take a meaningful message away. It takes a lot of skill and thought to produce such a wonderful body of work.

It is really remarkable. I think that what makes it really great was that the precision was not sacrificed for making the video more quickly. It is one of those projects that didnt scrimp on the details. Really enjoyable! I was really struck with the process in which the video was made. It is really remarkable.

I would have given up long before I created anything this well done. I appreciate the complexity of the narratives. I think that stop-motion is so cool, it seems to be going the way of polaroid and holga, only for those who care. I do not have a the patience this person must have.

I also found myself getting vaguely uncomfortable watching this video and the adults acting like every vicious children. When they were wrestling over a chair I felt like someone should jump in and break them up saying things like "you could put out someone's eye." I think I might secretly be an 80 year old.
