My name is Jenny "Jup" Benorden, and I live and work in Oakland, California. &nbsp;I am a multi-disiciplinary artist, working in the fields of film, music, writing, and performance. &nbsp;In addition, I have been working in the field of wellness, having practiced therapeutic massage for the past 15 years, and also more recently moving into nutrition and skin-care.&nbsp;<br><div><br></div><div>My experience in production began in the Public Access Television arena, where I and my co-producer Zara Zimbardo produced 12 award-winning programs on different topics having to do with environmental and social justice. &nbsp;We made programs on topics ranging from the California Prison Industry, the corporate ownership of the media (and its implications on a functioning Democracy), Palestine, a history of Haiti, Oil Consumption (a history of U.S. oil consumption and its impact on global stabilization), and on SOIL's work in Haiti.</div><div><br></div><div>This latest film project is very exciting for me, as I've been wanting to tell SOIL's story in a light-spirited way that would hopefully make the concept of composting toilets fun to engage in, exciting to see, leaving people with a sense of hope, that "wow, so many of the world's problems can be solved - with a toilet??"</div>
