From the Arab Spring to the London riots and Occupy Wall Street; from the tsunami that inundated the Fukushima nuclear reactor to the possible discovery of the Higgs-Boson 'God' particle. From the shooting of US Senator Gabby Gifford and Assange fighting extradition to Sweden.
From the Murdoch empire's phone hacking scandal in the UK; Anders Breivik's ideological massacre in Norway and the execution of Osama bin Laden in Pakistan - the year 2011 was portentously charged. The shockwaves from these events continue to reverberate through the corridors of power and even the foundations of the planet. This is nothing less than a meditation on the state of our world and its troubling future.
