------------------------------------------

Still pondering,

Cultural resonances - Neolithic Eden circular time sensibilities : Roman Eden linear efficiencies.

Still imagining,

a post plasticised post Neolithic Anthropocene (Garden of ? [new forms of human biodiversity stewardship]) Eden.

Now day dreaming,

Mayburgh, KART, LRT - three monuments as arenas for contemporary performance / installation.

Now considering,

Deeper Eden, as group journey from Red Gill Beck, Black Moss, to Solway.

Many thanks to Team Eden Arts, Adrian, Bryoney, Heather, Jo, Mags & Simon for support & discussions on the residency.
