Here is part one of Moment Capturing, my collaboration with Jaki Levy.


This is one of a pair of videos I made with Jaky Levy inspired by Jay Dedman’s idea of Momentshowing.

We are sorry

This is an apology from a group of Arab and Muslim youth to Norway, Denmark and Sweden (the poor Swedes must be wondering how the hell they got mixed up in this farce).

This in particular is very well said:

“The problem with media representation of such issues tends to be that the media only picks up the loudest voices, ignoring the rational ones that do not generate as much noise. Voices that seek tolerance, dialogue and understanding are always drowned out by the more sensationalist loud calls, giving viewers the impression that these views are representative of all the Arab public’s view.”
