For those wondering how the premiere of our doc MIWENE was at @WildscreenFest last month… It pains me to say it, but the experience was terrible and incredibly disappointing...

As a white American filmmaker, my voice shouldn't be the focus of these conversations, but I hope that by sharing this experience it may be insightful to people working in this industry and encourage more thoughtful changes to Wildscreen and other festivals in the future.

I made this interactive globe to track the most relevant Covid data over time. Combine the important data for better context and watch it animate over time on a flat map or 3D globe. What kinds of patterns do you see? https://t.co/tBDK1g7YQw

@neiltyson This sounds profound but its not what science tells us. Countless examples of convergent evolution tell us that traits evolve in response to its environment. Aliens “could” look different, but doesn’t mean they “should” or even likely “would” look more different.

These videos really capture my Antarctica experience. http://t.co/PlQVhJoABE The Antarctic footage is from my 2013 expedition.
