This outing was undertaken as practice for Paul’s planned Expedition-Autism: Greenland 2017<\/a><\/strong>, a month-long trek across the Greenland Ice Cap to showcase autistic ability.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

After Paul’s report the adventure turns inward, with a screening of the new short film, SPECTRUM:<\/a>\u00a0A story of the mind<\/em>. This film highlights autistic sensory issues\u00a0<\/span>and features appearances by Tito Mukhopadhyay<\/a>, artist Judy Endow<\/a>, and Aikido master Nick Walker<\/a>. The segment on Judy is an excellent sequel to last month’s AASCEND meeting on the newly-forming Autistic Creatives Collective<\/strong><\/span> because Judy is an established commercial artist. Nick Walker is familiar to AASCEND from his presentation about managing autistic stress at an AASCEND meeting five years ago.<\/p>\n
