On my latest visit to Cagibi, I decided to check out what was available in their Distroboto. To my surprise, I found Sprout Out Loud, an urban plant reclamation ensemble!
Their mission: invite people every Sunday until snow falls on Montreal to help transform a vacant site into a community garden.
For $2, you can get your package with all the information needed and sunflower seeds – which is the easiest plant to grow from our research done for our previous seed bomb workshop.
I invite you to visit Emily Rose Michaud’s online blog about the project here and take part of it, especially if you live around or in the Mile-End.

Encore une fois, mon amie Sara me donne une belle occasion de visiter ce pays coloré et accueillant qu'est le Mexique. Pas les plages de touristes ni la vie de pacha, mais plutôt les montagnes semi-désertiques, les voyages en autocars, les rues en pavé unis, sans oublier les repas copieux et délicieux, bien gras servis au coin de la rue. →

Nice... Une thérémine. Patricia en a une faite maison avec une cellule photosensible. Ça m'a trop donné l'envie d'en faire une moi aussi. Patricia a déniché un plan, et on est allé acheter le matériel nécessaire au magasin Addison (débaptisé par moi "Edison", je trouvais que ça faisait du sens, haha). Pour moins de 10 dollars, on peut se fabriquer →

Finally, the photos are here! The event was a success. It was a gorgeous day to stay outside and make seed bombs with great company.
We put up a table with all the steps and people just had to mix in the different seeds they brought. I think everyone got to leave with approximately 25 seed bombs or so.
We plan on →

Learning To Love You More is a great new project by Miranda July and Harrell Fletcher. Yuri Ono designed the web site and seems to be able to manages the tons of updates every week.
The concept is very simple and powerful, post an assignment and let strangers take part in it. They then send back a report with ie: photos →

Long time no talk! I have been way too busy in the past months! But I haven't forgotten this project and I hope it will get moving with the upcoming spring. I plan on getting more collaborators too!
So I've been quite sick lately which gave me time to check out my favorite blogs and see what's up. One thing I →

Depuis un an, je travaille dans la Cité du multimédia, dans le Vieux, un quartier dans lequel je venais rarement auparavant. Ça n'était pas un de mes quartiers favoris, bons pour les touristes et les workaholic. Toutefois, je commence à le découvrir un peu plus, et, entres autres, je me rends compte qu'il y beaucoup d'endroits propices à faire de →
