With still cameras & video cameras, microphones, pads and pencils, we recorded our experiences at the Summit the entire weekend, capturing in intimate and diverse discourse absent in the headlines of most news dailies. We recorded our own history on our own terms. From within the action. As an action!
counter productive, with the dissonance CD, is a small part of this action. it looks beyond the Summit fence to the ulcer inside the belly of the beast.
These are dissenting words, images and sounds.

"a culturally savvy design"
-- Montréal Review of Books mRb
"a regiment of stained men passes:
so dirty even Purgatory's purger
could never clean their uniforms"
