Some Research

New TED talk by Katie Paterson:

This was mainly just a recap of her works and didn’t particularly tell me anything new about her work/deep time that I haven’t come across before. A couple of points I noted down:

• Connecting to deep time via sensory experience – collecting images in household objects etc
• Trees – we share genes with trees and they ‘give us our breath’
• the resources list she has noted down below the talk also has a good selection of books, including the following talk and book (same title):

• other listed resources included: On Earth We’re Briefly Gorgeous, The Good Ancestor: A Radical Prescription for Long-Term Thinking, and Braiding Sweetgrass: Indigenous Wisdom, Scientific Knowledge and the Teachings of Plants
