Adventure Is Calling II from Shane Black on Vimeo.

Take another trip around the U.S. and parts of Canada through my eyes, with Adventure Is Calling II.

I was fortunate enough to spend several months this past summer traveling around the U.S. and parts of Canada, teaching workshops and shooting timelapse along the way. Since the trip was so similar to the year before, I thought it was fitting to dub this video as a sequel to Adventure Is Calling. This trip spanned just shy of 4 months, covered around 14,000 miles and led to this film, composed of nearly 20,000 still images.

It was so great getting so much feedback on the last video about how it inspired so many to get out, travel, and spend more nights under the stars. I hope this video will revamp those desires.

Special thanks to Arn Andersson for making an extended version of his song The Truth Beyond for me to use for this video. arnandersson.com

This year marks the 150th anniversary of the birth of Beatrix Potter, one of the most enduring and cherished children’s authors of all time. To commemorate the anniversary, a new, never-before-published story by Potter, called The Tale of Kitty in Boots, has been released.

“Readers, we’ve been down this road before, not too long ago, and it didn’t end well,” says critic Maureen Corrigan.

Atticus Finch’s reputation took a hit after his exposure in Harper Lee’s Go Set A Watchman as a segregationist and reactionary extremist. Do we really want to risk losing cherished illusions about the likes of Squirrel Nutkin and Jemima Puddle-Duck in exchange for the novelty of a freshly unearthed tale by Beatrix Potter?

Luckily, there’s nothing more disturbing here than the revelation that Peter Rabbit has gotten old and “very fat.” Check out Maureen’s full review here.

Five-year plan involves revamping building and connecting with a global audience

After seven years of budget cuts, the 140-year-old National Library of Ireland is embarking on a program of renewal.

concept: instead of the words ‘trigger warnings’, academic institutions and academics who are against them must use the words ‘accessibility for students who have overcome trauma to work for their education’

‘to support academic freedom, we do not support accessibility for students who have overcome trauma to work for their education’

‘in this class, there will be no accessibility for students who have overcome trauma to work for their education’

‘you want me to include accessibility for students who have overcome trauma to work for their education? grow up.’

I believe we have an obligation to read for pleasure, in private and in public places. If we read for pleasure, if others see us reading, then we learn, we exercise our imaginations. We show others that reading is a good thing.

In Library: An Unquiet History, historian and curatorial fellow for Harvard’s metaLAB Matthew Battles describes Melvil Dewey’s impatience with inefficiency in library work in the 1870s. “To Dewey, local interests and special needs were less important than the efficient movement of books into the hands of readers,” he writes. That crisp statement of purpose should be an inspiration to the current discussions around making library collections and programs visible and available on the web.

“Making libraries more visible on the web has two benefits: improving the service for the ones who are already committed to the library—they use search engines, too—and giving libraries the opportunity to reach those who never—or only sometimes—think about the library.”

#traveltuesday – beautiful new shots from Moab taken last weekend by BLMer Bob Wick.

Corona Arch in Utah is a free standing arch with a 140 by 105 foot opening. Corona and adjoining Bowtie Arch are a popular hike located just 20 minutes from Moab. The 1.5 mile trail climbs 400 feet. Note that there are two short stretches of steeper slick rock, but cables and footholds are provided.

The Highway 128 corridor follows the Colorado River corridor through slick rock canyons east of Moab. The area is a recreation mecca with a paved bike trail (western part of the corridor), numerous campgrounds, trails, and flatwater boating opportunities. About 30 miles east of Moab, the canyon opens up into Castle Valley with its numerous spectacular rock formations – including Fisher Towers. The towers are renowned as photo subjects and also provide for challenging rock climbs. The BLM provides a picnic site at the base of the towers and a 2.2 mile trail offers close up views. A definite bucket list location!
