Mel, and all -

I viewed this film some time ago. It is truly amazing what these folks are
doing in the name of improving life - not just for themselves, but for many
others. It'll get ya - I guarantee.

there are some amazing artists around the world doing amazing things.
it is modern, thought provoking.
metaphor...done right. it is not pretend.

vic muniz/his `wasteland` series.
done in the garbage dumps of brazil.
interaction with the `pickers`. he changes the lives of `real people`.

if you can see the documentary. find the film and watch it. it will amaze
you.

the film is named simply: Wasteland

vic muniz, andy goldsworthy and many others are a great inspiration to
craftspeople.
the scale of the work is what is amazing.
