had the honor to shoot The Canadian Cannabis Awards (CCAs) at The Royal York hotel. It is the annual celebration recognizing excellence and innovation in Canada’s cannabis industry. The CCAs highlight the best people, products, and companies in Canadian cannabis and we were there to capture at all!
The Service Design Global Conference took place on October 10-11, 2019 in Toronto at the evergreen brickworks. This year we were joined by over 650 guests from 44 countries, making this a truly international event. This event was two-fold for me. not only as the official photographer working and shooting the event but as a graphic designer myself I was able to appreciate the Conference as many of the tones and ideas work hand in hand.
The Service Design Network (SDN), founded in 2004, is the leading non-profit institution for expertise in service design and a driver of global growth, development and innovation within the practice. Through national and international events, online and print publications and coordination with academic institutions, our member-based network connects multiple roles within agencies, business, and government to strengthen the impact of service design within the public and private sectors. Ours is a global, open-minded network, focused on knowledge-sharing, collaboration and exchange.
Took Part in a local event called Cobechenonk Shadow Canoe Show. You get to paddle down the Humber River while experiencing a shadow puppet show the group By Drawing With Knives Presented by Balance Bringers
“We can tell you that our relationship to Cobechenonk (Humber River) goes much deeper than 150 years. We can telll you that the river has been an important waterway since time immemorial. That it continues to be a significant site for many Indigenous people. We can tell you many things about Cobechenonk, but actually, we’d rather invite you to board one of our canoes and experience it for yourself.
Explore and share stories of the river and teachings about water, the animals, plants, and ancestors of the river past and present. Paddle a canoe with us as these stories are brought to life by shadow puppetry. Or if you prefer to stay on land, sit and share food, songs and stories from Elders and hand drummers. A fire will be lit.
