A Greener Election?

I'm back from Spain, again! Settling into life here, again! Enjoying the snow, again! :-) Just wrapped up a piece for Dance Explosions which was a wonderful opportunity to creatively explore working with contemporary movement, lighting design as well as see to the works of other choreographers. A very diverse and inspirational run!

My piece was titled "Shadows & Luminosity" - inspired by the moon (especially last week's eclipse). It was an exploration of internal expression, emotional response, the subconcious, femininity, contrasts - aspects that the moon represents in legends, astrology and many cultures. The choreography developed in shadows and shafts of light that both highlighted and obscured the body....as for the rest you'd have to see it!!

Now I am running around, dropping off flyers for the Alberta Greens. You would never believe how many thousands live in a single neighbourhood!! Finding out where the mailboxes are hiding is also an interesting challenge :-) The leader, George Read, is running in Calgary NW. As well I am supporting the campaign of Randy Weeks, who is the candidate for Calgary Bow. If you are thinking about voting green, find out more on:

also, more about where to vote etc. on
www.elections.ab.ca

The Greens have a full platform that covers all relevant issues. They are environmentally sustainable, fiscally responsible AND socially progressive. Balanced and forward-thinking, I am so happy to find a party with such integrity that values grassroots involvement.

Whatever your party leanings are - don't vote blindly!! Do you know who your candidate is and what they stand for??

I'm going to be attending a candidate debate tomorrow & look forward to hearing the views from everyone (plus I have a few questions up my sleeve :-)

The provicial vote is on Monday, March 3rd....see you at the polls
