Outside My Window @outsidemywindow.bsky.social · 08/01/2026New year, new windows! outsidemywindow.org/everyone-eve... Today though, Lexy's window reimagining feels especially important. Undocumented immigrants are our neighbors, friends, lovers, and helpers. The domestic terrorists are the ones shooting us in the head in broad daylight on the street. 011
Outside My Window @outsidemywindow.bsky.social · 11/09/2025Catching up on writing (part 1) A May Day post, a little late for Labor Day. In a better world though, perhaps every day would be celebrating us workers, and this post would be right on time. outsidemywindow.org/2025/05/04/m...outsidemywindow.orgMay Day PlaySometimes our imaginings scream or sing, and sometimes they whisper or hum quite lullabies. In this evening of worlding, we stayed quiet, gave voice instead to the more-than-human world through our… 021
Outside My Window @outsidemywindow.bsky.social · 08/05/2025Thank you!! We think so too 🌿❤️ There's a lot of darkness right now, so every glimmer can mean a lot 010
Outside My Window @outsidemywindow.bsky.social · 07/05/2025There could be picnics with snacks and art supplies. Comment boxes on site. Walking discussions and visioning exercises. There could be so many things. But it takes time and energy to try them out. If we did though, our public spaces could reflect the creativity and diversity of our communities. 000
Outside My Window @outsidemywindow.bsky.social · 07/05/2025What if, instead of *allowing* for comments, our public institutions *facilitated* the public's input? Not through passive letters that are mostly ignored and thrown out, but through active and creative interventions? What if they tried to make civic engagement fun? 3/ 100
Outside My Window @outsidemywindow.bsky.social · 07/05/2025Some people may open the municipality's letter. Of those who do, a handful may already feel strongly enough about the park to take the time and write something in. But many many more people interact with this park, and, even if only for a few passing moments, have ideas about what it could be. 2/ 100
Outside My Window @outsidemywindow.bsky.social · 07/05/2025In a small park in #Tilburg stands a strange brick structure with a hole right in the center, creating a window onto the park's shallow pond. The municipality is now collecting comments on renovations for this park. There's a QR code and a survey. But what if they did something more creative? 🧵1/ 232
Outside My Window @outsidemywindow.bsky.social · 03/05/2025Situating the Outside My Window project within the concept of "enclosure", @schuylerlaparle.bsky.social reflects on how we can use art to challenge the systems that regulate how our bodies move and interact with the world. #Art as #Resistance #ReclaimTheCommons 030

Outside My Window @outsidemywindow.bsky.social · 09/04/2025"Imagining the end of the world is easier than imagining the end of capitalism" is only true if we forget that we are creative. And capitalism is really good at making us forget. But all it takes is a few friends and some art supplies to remember. outsidemywindow.org/2025/03/29/t...outsidemywindow.orgThe First GatheringUnder the shifting shadows of a collapsing system, we have to look out our windows and learn to see possibilities, not just the world as it is.

These are not good times, and so I needed an outlet for creating, sharing, and fostering hope. This is my modest attempt at that.
