Beginning in 2020, in response to the cultural and political upheavals that were playing out in the United States, I started making a series of videos to help me understand and cope with what was going on around me. To date, five videos have been made under the heading, Imperfect Union Productions. They are Rage, 2020; Gaea’s Lament, For Love of Guns, Isn’t It a Pity—all 2022; and A Brief History of American Demagoguery, 2024. This blatant incursion into political messaging is unusual for me, but I found the current situation so abhorrent, and I felt so powerless that I needed to do something even if my outrage found no audience beyond myself. These five videos are the result.
