摘要

“Whatever you do, don’t try to make the world a better place; instead, consider that the world might be trying to make you a better place” (Bayo Akomolafe). Sustainability has the whiff of decay. It feels like the lowest common denominator of a practice that has stopped naturing. In this holding pattern, a certain levelling is accomplished. A methodology is set in place so that processes can be streamlined. A necessary evil, we are told. We have always found ways to subtract our-selves from difference in the taming of nature. In this speculative engagement with what else a garden can be in the context of the 3Ecologies Project (3ecologies.org), an opening is perhaps created for another way, and with it, other modes of attunement to how nature natures.
