Did the Mormons invent a better alphabet?

[…]

Did you know the Mormons invented their own alphabet? As did Benjamin Franklin. Many people have tried and failed to end the fiasco that is English spelling. In this video I explore five such attempts.

Summer in the Australian Rainforest

Long summer afternoons are perfect for adventuring to waterfalls with my duck. This week we plant trees in the orchard, harvest pears and cook with their abundance.

We are sisters, Julia and Anastasia Vanderbyl. A few years ago, we began a journey to live a life in perfect harmony with nature. A life of caring for animals, growing fruit, planting trees, gardening, cooking, creating, building and learning to live with the land.
In this time, nature has taught us more than we could have ever imagined.

Our environmental films document the landscape, the lessons we’ve learnt and our work as regenerative farmers here on Bundjalung Country.

We live on the land of the Arakwal and Minjungbal People of the Bundjalung Nation. We acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of the Country we live on and recognise their continuing connection to the land and waters. We thank them for protecting this rainforest and its ecosystems since time immemorial.

Artist Shane Grammer Shares What It Means To Create Public Art | My Modern Met

By Jessica Stewart on February 6, 2025

“It’s not just about painting walls, it’s about merging the spirit of graffiti’s raw energy with the craftsmanship and storytelling of mural-making to create art that connects with communities and tells powerful stories.”

Urban artist Shane Grammer is known for his large-scale murals. Working in a realistic style, Grammer’s pieces resonate with the community, whether he’s creating a vibrant mural to brighten a Miami high school or working with his non-profit Hope Through Art, to raise awareness about important causes.

Grammer’s work first caught our eye in 2019, when he painted a powerful portrait of a womanon a freestanding chimney that was left behind after the Camp Fire in Paradise, California. Recently, My Modern Met co-founder and editor-in-chief Eugene Kim crossed paths with Grammer at Miami Art Week, where he was able to see Grammer’s latest mural come to life.

“Not only is Shane super talented, but he also has a beautiful heart which is clearly displayed through his work,” Kim shares. “Shane introduced me to the tight-knit street art community in Wynwood, Miami, and they welcomed me with open arms, which I greatly appreciated. We are proud to feature Shane’s breathtaking artwork and call him a My Modern Met friend.”

We had the chance to chat with Grammer about the reasons he enjoys creating public art, his creative process, and the personal paintings he’s working on.[…]
