Event Description:

n00b: (noun) an inexperienced and/or unskilled player in video games.

The parents of a teenage boy take away his video games because they say he is spending too much time in a make-believe world. But in an online reality full of gunshots, enemies and strategy is also a community full of acceptance, unity and safety. With that support gone, the boy runs away from home into a world more dangerous than any combat game he has ever played.

Event Description:

James Bannerman (1957-2009) was uniquely situated to capture a street-level view of urban Calgary. First introduced to photography as a client at The Calgary Drop-In & Rehab Centre in 2006, he was rarely seen afterwards without the backpack containing his precious camera, laptop and photo files; picture taking was going to be his 'retirement plan'. The photographs he left behind speak compassionately about the intrinsic value of incorporating creative activity into daily life.

The Compassionate Eye of James Bannerman is being presented as part of the This Is My City Festival, an interdisciplinary festival of art from the margins. Festival runs from January 5 - May 2, 2012, in Calgary's downtown core. For additional information: www.thisismycitycalgary.ca
