Becs @becs-os.bsky.social · 10/10/2026More green things! And going to try growing some herbs in my window - fingers crossed they'll get enough sun. 🥰 🌱 (Seedlings & plants from & at Kelmarna Community Farm 💚) 000
Becs @becs-os.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Dropping by with some lush food plant pix (speaking of how the economy could feed people!!) At the Auckland Botanic Gardens, plus a couple from the Wintergardens. Both lovely places to spend time! 🥰 110
Becs @becs-os.bsky.social · 21/09/2026Something which I feel could be getting lost in the hype is that there's other options (outside of Big Tech) for getting the usefulness of "machine learning" for ordinary people, which could deliver better economic benefits as well, such as a lot more jobs. 010
Becs @becs-os.bsky.social · 21/09/2026New art about the problem of being "the human in the loop" 😬 I support the calls to *slow right down* on the big decisions, and work with all communities waaaay more carefully. 101
Becs @becs-os.bsky.social · 19/09/2026She mentioned in one interview having taken a bunch of Economics papers @ uni when she realised how much there was to know, so is likely much more informed than a lot of politicians are! 000

Becs @becs-os.bsky.social · 27/04/2026I missed out on being up with everyone @ the dawn service, so made up for it this morning - so beautiful! Photos of the sunrise over Waitaramoa / Hobson's Bay, starting from Ōrākei station, ending up at Te Tinana / Wilson's beach - with the city lights in the distance, and birds down on the beach. 120
Becs @becs-os.bsky.social · 09/02/2026Images include various crops and samples, and a mockup showing one side framed above a small desk. (I take care with accessibility descriptions - so if these are something that you use and I'm not getting it right, let me know!) 000
Becs @becs-os.bsky.social · 09/02/2026'Feel' side in reds, yellows, and pinks with black bio-glitter and all-caps lettering. Reverse side has a cooler feel, and reads: "Building with AI to care for life and humanity”. Painted in blues and purples with loose brushstrokes, small amounts of bio-glitter, and pink curved lettering. 100
Becs @becs-os.bsky.social · 09/02/2026Reposting since this energy is where its at (if anyone says 'new normal' I swear I'll scream) Double-sided poster, side 1: “Feel the rage at what is being done to life on the planet" (This side is kinda confronting, so just some crops shown here.) 100

Becs @becs-os.bsky.social · 28/01/2026Yes to this! I recently connected with an acting / marketing person and thought they would be an amazing help to progressive movement peops! 000
Becs @becs-os.bsky.social · 28/01/2026Anyone remember West Coast rainforest 30 years ago? These are from Charleston, near Westport, where I'd spent a day in the rainforest with peops protesting the logging to make furniture and other products from the Rimu. #art #archive 130
Becs @becs-os.bsky.social · 21/01/2026Shocking that we still don't have wastewater care sorted in Tāmaki Makaurau. Pix: #art #archive #installation of Oamaru foreshore, 1996. At the time, raw sewerage was still being discharged onto the foreshore - with a treatment plant (since complete) in the planning stage with the local council. 010
Becs @becs-os.bsky.social · 19/01/2026Another from my art school archives - from 1996, but not much has changed, apart from the production methods (we used tape to tape editing decks!) Pics from a video story about how we bring nature inside for sustenance, pleasure & drama. 100
Becs @becs-os.bsky.social · 17/01/2026We so need to collectively up our game at helping - I can't believe how inhumane people are willing for the govt to be. 120
Becs @becs-os.bsky.social · 17/01/2026Living on land with the memory of others who have lived there - (video art @ Oamaru foreshore, August 1995). Earlier that year, Pākaitore (Moutoa Gardens) in Whanganui was occupied by Te Ati Haunui a Paparangi Iwi, drawing attention to breaches of Te Tiriti o Waitangi. 110
Becs @becs-os.bsky.social · 17/01/2026Hard to believe this was 30 years ago! From art school, October 1994 in Oamaru. Land & place carry history - to learn, I was able to view archaeology collection items used by Māori around Waitaki, at Otago Museum. (First photo taken at Island Bay, Wellington, the rest are at Oamaru) 010
Becs @becs-os.bsky.social · 17/01/2026Went for a super lovely walk 💚 being able to take a breathe in spaces like these :-) 000

Meri Kirihimete. www.rnz.co.nz/news/world/5...rnz.co.nzDenying help to the poor is rejection of God, Pope Leo says on Christmas Eve"On Earth, there is no room for God if there is no room for the human person. To refuse one is to refuse the other," said the pope said, lamenting lack of care for children, the poor and immigrants. 1145
