Nyt näyttää suunta hyvältä!

Kiitos Sari Lindblom ja Helsingin yliopiston johto. On todella tärkeää, että yliopisto rohkenee korjaamaan toimintaansa, vastustaa Israelin tuhotyötä Gazassa eikä hallinnoi omaisuuttaan pelkät eurot silmissä. Linkit kommenteissa.

I can't wait the opportunity to exlore microbial relations through these two art-workshops!

Tomorrow I will also present results of #NATUREWELL project @helsinki.fi . Is it worth taking youth to the nature?

“The bacteria are ruling the insects! Insects are following the bacteria”- microbes are part of imaginary play as we research children’s relations with microbes in Tahmela Daycare in Tampere, Finland. Did the children read Merlin Sheldrake’s book Entangled Life? www.tuni.fi/en/research/...
Projected forest onto a suitcase cut out as as a TV screen, in forests lots of microbes live. In front there is a candle. The forest projection is made from wood and leaves collected in the forest. Another forest projected where the twig looks like a dragon.
