Most of my early professional work was ethnographic, having received doctoral training in anthropology. I later began crafting stories with materials, sounds and light to express what is beyond language. I still work in relationship with people but mostly, nowadays, with plants and soils whose lessons are far worthier of our attention.

On Being Anthrophototal

makalé cullen

2015 has been designated by the United Nations as The International Year of Light.

For Nathalie Rozot, Phototect, former director of L'Observatoire International, and founding director of the lighting think-tank, PhoScope, this means an opportunity to phostruct a new language about light and lighting technology. 

Join the 2015 PhosWords competition!

I'm part of the international jury and we invite everyone to contribute to phoslocution. To spread knowledge about phocy and phototecture. Perhaps you'll trouble the lack of light in refugee camps, or detail how light effects a plant you're cultivating or a child you're teaching. Or, maybe you need to describe your dream photodom. 

All winning entries will become part of the PhosWords dictionary, published by PhoScope.

Phosforming,
Makalé xx
