Landscape perceptions and experiences


The aims of this blog is
1) to gather material which helps us to view 'Landscape' from many different perspectives (Science, Phenomenology, Aesthetics, Ethics etc)
2) and secondly to record 'Landscape experiences' from our workshops (Reports) and my own experiences (Diary).
For our workshops see our website

Resources

Here follows a list of books/papers/articles which have inspired me and relate more or sometimes less to the workshop or landscape.
I will add comments and links to them sometime in the future.
Also at the bottom you will find links to relevant websites.
