Described by participants as a mental disease or a type of insanity, the National Novel Writing Month contest, affectionately abbreviated to NaNoWriMo, pits its contestants against time in a race to each write 50,000 words in 30 days.

Using varied techniques including song, dance, drama and oration, East worked during the performance to point out fundamental problems with our growth-centered economy and the toll such growth takes on society and the Earth.
