I wrote 'On Smallness and Power' back in 2018.
I think a lot of effort has gone into convincing people to feel powerless, or to feel empowered by things which don't actually achieve much, and certainly don't threaten the status quo.

I made a video of 'On Smallness and Power'.
I used lots of #timelapse footage of skies over #Edinburgh, and a couple of short clips of @scrappapertiger and our dog, Kifl, and a few little #slomo clips of other things.
I hope you enjoy it.
