Andy Caffrey the Virtual Candidate

Astonishing as it might sound, there have been times in the past when global air temperatures increased 20 degrees C in one human lifetime. The last glaciation cycle of the Ice Age began 120,000 years ago with a Madhouse Century of seventy feet in sea level changes. The conditions then are quite

If you have kids, I hope you will watch this. It could be the most important video I've ever seen. Fifty-five million years ago there was a massive pulse of carbon released by the natural carbon sinks of the planet that caused an 8 degree C global air temperature jump. That temperature increa

This is the one video clip that probably means the most to me, and I didn't shoot it. I did record audio of the Sagebrush Patriots Rally that year and release a 96-minute cassette of that music a year later, "Battle Cries From The North Rim." But I think these four clips were a big

Todd Rundgren has just released his best album in thirty years: "Arena." It seems to have two thrusts, a tribute musically to the guitar rock of the seventies like Robin Trower, Jeff Beck and AC/DC. Lyrically, it's all about getting off yer butt RIGHT NOW, as it is in this AC/DC

On one hand, this could really be a film of a real class on how to sink whaling ships, and this guy could really be someone who has sunk whaling and drift net ships. On the other hand, this guy could be a mad Cuban poet & performance artist I met at a Rendezvous, using a script handed to me by a dis

Feral Whale Ship & Driftnet Rammers and Sinkers and admirers invite us to experience their ritual life atop Mt. Graham in SE Arizona at the 1993 Earth First! Round River Rendezvous. This is a perfect example of a precious tape deteriorating after almost fifteen years. I urgently want to professio

You can find other video elsewhere in my myspace video archive that I shot of this guy reciting his poetry and teaching a class on How To Sink A Whaling Ship. And yes, of course I advocate that people sink illegal whaling and driftnetting ships. At least until the world's governments take ove

The first video about Earth First! made with high production values is this story of the assaults and defense of Australia's precious rain forests in the mid-1980s.

This is a 20-Minute edit of Ned Mudd's video of the GreenFire Road Show in Kalamazoo, MI on Sept. 29, 1989. Arizona Earth First! lecturer Roger Featherstone & California musician Dakota Sid Clifford pioneered Earth First! recruitment beyond the Rockies to the midwest, east and south (U.S.) for t

GRRRR!!! This was from my first attempt to videotape a Round River Rendezvous. Two years earlier I had recorded the Sagebrush Patriots Rally onto cassette at the North Rim of the Grand Canyon. I edited thirteen hours down to about 96 minutes and released it as the cassette album, "Battle Cries

Bill asked me to make a music video for him of this song back at Breitenbush, OR in 1988. Due to circumstances beyond my control... We did kinda go off in the woods with Todd Samusson and do a shoot right before his set. So maybe some day I'll surprise him with it. It is a really beautifu

After encountering some bad hygienic practices by visitors to their bioregion in southern Appalachia, the Katuah Earth First! host organizers presented this training demonstration.

I think it was in March 1989 when John Trudell performed this searing performance at the Mateel Community Center in a benefit show with Dana Lyons and Darryl Cherney & Ecotage for Headwaters Forest. This is half of his show. Most of the rest of my videotape has deteriorated with age. I am trying

Recorded in the Gravelly Range, July 1990.

If Earth First! could have an official prayer, this would be it.
