Applying visuality, textuality and graphicity in mindmaps to restructure human ecology for sustainability.
More than 'environment', 'place' exists only after
people have imagined it. These imaginative structures create a sense of
place and unify land and its peoples in powerful ways. They are the
essence of conservation because people come to value the biophysical
elements of town and country scenery as visual triggers to relive the
past. All this, conceptualised with words of those who meditate upon it,
may be enlivened by computer hypermedia to make a mindmap. Such
multidimensional graphical structures are navigable syllabuses for
assembling a personal body of knowledge about sustainable
development.
This website is
the home of the COSMOS project dedicated to learning about cultures of
sustainability by making multi-subject organised
syllabuses.
