I’m happy to announce a new contributor to the Culture Making Web site, filmmaker Nathan Clarke. My cultural collaboration with Nathan began with the series of documentary shorts collected in Where Faith and Culture Meet, when he was a senior producer with 2100 Productions.

Nathan has since established his own production company, Fourth Line Films, which not only has continued to collaborate with Christianity Today and me on projects like Round Trip and The Global Conversation, but also created a documentary short on local food for HDNet and produced a fun short film on hog wrestling in uttermost Wisconsin—which you can view in all its glory below. Suffice to say his interests are impressively varied, just like this site!

In 2010 Nathan and I are exploring new ways to create media and experiences that build on Culture Making and my new work on creative power. We’ll be posting some short videos this spring from recent speaking engagements, and Nathan will join Nate, Christy, and me in spotting and sharing cultural creativity worth celebrating. Welcome, Nathan!
