Secondary Disappearances

This blog is part of an individual directed study course exploring how many humans in the Global North seem to have lost our social connection to nature. In an age of increasing urbanization, humans in the Global North increasingly live our lives mediated through technology, which has created a disconnect with our natural environments.

We and here?

A place to post our first "reflection papers" dealing with the questions: who am "I" (are "we")? and where is "here"?

The questions

We decided today that first we needed to define what we were doing by creating a few questions to lead our exploration of the social relationship to nature. The questions we came up with (I hope I got them right) were:
-how is it lost?
-what are the implications of this loss on the way we interact with the world?
-how can we find it (what we have lost) through art?
