Artful Word: Journey of Ice - Ice Out 04/10/2019

Journey with award-winning producer, James Gero on a unique visual experience. Voyage into a world of undulating waves and sparkling diamond-like ice. Behold and wonder a world in flux, transitioning and signaling the seasonal pathway to warmer climes. Depart frozen Lake Champlain's winter landscape, barren and windswept, into a region of hopeful renewal. Take a step out of winter and herald spring. Ice out is an exceptional and breathtaking climax of a melting lake. We never see ice freeze, yet now the journey of winter ice is coming full circle and the warmth of summer is a welcoming portent of hope.

Artful Word: 12 Hours of The Spring Equinox 03/20/2019

Calling fellow earthlings and sisters of the stars to join in on a cosmic welcoming. Journey along on the equatorial salute. Travel time and space on this incredible celestial experience. This is a solstice with little portents of spring. Still locked in an arctic seas scape and deep polar freeze witness a sleepy city buried in winter waiting to be reawakened. Behold in all its splendor the blood red solstice full moon heralding this auspicious day as it gracefully sets over the inert and sleepy Adirondack mountains. This majestic scene is followed by a beautiful solstice morning sunrise. Watch this magical day unfold in all its glory with rare cutaways of historic Burlington Vermont culminating at the stone earth clock with a spectacular solstice sunset. The full solstice moon again bids a sleepy goodnight to a day of portents of a wondrous spring.
