TRANSHUMANCE & ALPEGGIO
How it would be to have a conversation with agencies different from humans?
Serie Reading Landscape 1/6
This lecture glimpses an alternative language that makes possible a conversation between nature and human. It is a language spoken under whistling and nomadism codes that play as “words” in the conversation. This approach celebrates the surviving of this ancestral language but also questions the content of the conversations themselves; as it is not just a matter of having the words to communicate but what is actually said to each other with them. Are we having an horizontal conversation with the non-human world with this language?
ITALIAN MEDIEVAL GARDEN
How this garden could orient us to have a restoring dialogue with the ecological crisis?
Serie Reading Landscape 2/6
This is a lecture that takes us to the past to see how there have been an spetial encounter with nature through the garden. It invites us to wonder about the role of gardens in our life -human daily landscape-; and also to reflect towards the importance of having a marriage between the utilitarian and asthetic aspect when having any intention to cultivate one. This is an approach that echoes an historical referent to help us define contemporanean garden´s role today.
