Screening of Trailer for Veins in the Gulf (2010 feature Documentary Directed by Ted Hardin and Elizabeth Coffman)
Louisiana’s coast is the most threatened in the world--hurricanes, rising tides, sinking land. 2000 square miles of fertile soil, productive wetlands, and an enormous oil and gas infrastrure--gone. In 50 years, Louisiana may not extend beyond New Orleans. Who will save Louisiana? The Army Corps of Engineers? Environmentalists? Medicine Men? Veins in the Gulf interviews them all, looking for the answers. The problem is agreeing on the solution.
Veins in the Gulf trailer from Ted Hardin on Vimeo. Telematic Performance with Musicians in New Orleans and Chicago Performers include Luther Gray (percussion), Jonathan Freilich (guitar), George Bailey (guitar), Jayve Montgomery (reeds and percussion), and Dan Godston (trumpet).

The panelists in New Orleans included Rene Broussard, Luther Gray, Jonathan Freilich, and Jordan Flaherty; the panelists in Chicago included Stan West, Robin Whatley, George Bailey, Ashley Johnson, Arvis Averette, and Ted Hardin.
