I'm developing my years of research into Crab Orchard National Wildlife Refuge into "Fishing for Nature," a video essay looking at nature, race, secrecy, and militarism at one site in southern Illinois.

I am working with Nicholas Brown to expand and prepare the book "Re-Collecting Blackhawk" for publication.

Several essays on radio/transmission art should be coming out in the next year in Leonardo and Art Journal.

I'm being a wildly happy mom.
