I am not afraid of the future because I am making it is series of embroidered patches posted with directions for use. To date, thirteen patches have been offered through guerrilla posting in an exhibition or other public space, and accepted by anonymous participants. This project was augmented by moderating a panel, “Making the Future,” at the Global Warning Symposium, Zero One Festival, San Jose, California, in 2010.
