Life and Death on the Gowanus
A collaboration with Proteus Gowanus for TEDxGowanus, Jan 26 2014.

“Life and Death on the Gowanus” pays homage to the multifarious ecological and human dramas played out along the banks and in the murky waters of the Gowanus Canal. The double-sided “broadsheet”, is a collection of actual news stories about things found in and along the Gowanus canal from the late 1800s to the present — including a gangster, horses, a small child, a merman, a whale, a dolphin and a shark.
