For Dano Pendygrasse, arguably one of the most respected and successful Canadian snowboard photographers ever, the Bneeth Time Capsule was an ideal place to start a dialogue around artistic transitions. As his initial entry describes, he's in the midst of switching from nearly 20 years of action sports photography to pursue his next major shooting focus. Putting his story out there in the company of the project's other contributors was enough to get him involved.

"When Mikey explained the idea of the project, and the people involved, it was an easy decision," says Pendygrasse. "I think that there are a lot of people who go through creative transitions, and I know that I have always been interested in stories of people who successfully switch gears, be it by changing medium, or subject matter or whatever. I've been going down this road for a few years now and truthfully, I've learned a lot about myself and my process. I'm going to share a lot of that and I'm betting that people will find it interesting."

Interesting content is the thing to have these days. But in an Internet age of complete media saturation, will the Bneeth project have what it takes to not just become another "blog"? Pendygrasse thinks so.

"I think that one of the biggest draws will be the cast of characters," says Pendygrasse. "These are all really interesting and successful people who have some great stories to tell and photos or videos to show. I feel like the site that has a lot of depth and will hold people's interest -- you can dig and dig and find a lot of things to keep you occupied."

Past the diverse crew of contributors, whose experience goes from multi-decade veterans to fresh faces on the scene, there's the hook of an actual Time Capsule. Scott says that structuring the project a timeline and an end goal of a book format gives its participants a clear and exciting goal.

"My hope is that the next year of content really gives everyone involved an honest look into the experiences that result from being involved in the skate and snow industry," says Scott. "The overall goal with this project was to have a place where talented people could creatively inspire one another with real life content."

At present the Time Capsule eschews the typical advertising-driven blog setup for a clean and authentic presentation of its contributor's stories and images. Unabashedly appreciative of his own experience in the snowboard world, Scott has footed the bill for the website.

"One day I will make it back," says Scott about his investment. "With the variety of content that's live on the site right now, I think it's safe to say we're already off to a great start."
