Dear friends,

We have entered a period in history where our physical relationship to our habitat must be re-examined. Ecological sustainability is something we must explore behaviorally, since the negative impact our species has made on the planet has extended from our physical behavior.

By creatively exploring our physicality in relationship to our natural environment (how we move through space, how we relate to other species, how we engage with our natural resources) we can begin to re-frame the sustainability conversation in terms of personal behavior and cultural practices.

The good news is that moving consciously and creatively in nature is fun!

Together we can creatively identify and articulate cultural practices that reflect the ecological values we hold.

I look forward to developing this work with you.

Warmly,

Karl

Dear Kickstarter friends,

After weeks of reading about failed attempts to stop the flow of oil into the Gulf of Mexico, I've resolved to document the physical stories of the plants and animals directly affected by this catastrophe, starting with the birds.
