I think this book encapsulates the true purpose of journalism: to capture and show the things we are not seeing. This is something that I think the mainstream media has lost sight of these days. In the never-ending barrage of information, we often forget about or ignore the things that need real attention. This book is a huge example of how reporting can bring things back to the forefront and make a spurring call for change.

While media and journalism work to unveil facts that otherwise go unnoticed, I think art is an expression of what someone is feeling. It’s a purely individual experience that might appeal to a whole group later, but begins with one person’s unique perspective and expression. For me, I tried to express both tranquility and insecurity with my contributions to The Outlaw Ocean Music Project.
