  1. Cultivating the Ecological Body: Performance and Landscape Practices and the Processes of Attunement Dr. Jodie Allinson, University of South Wales

  2. Organic life (...) is active rather than reactive, the creative unfolding of an entire field of relations within which beings emerge and take on the particular forms they do, each in relation to the others. (Ingold 2000: 19)

  3. The organism (animal or human) should be understood not as a bounded entity surrounded by an environment but as an unbounded entanglement of lines in fluid space. (Ingold 2011: 64)

  4. What we have been accustomed to calling ‘the environment’ might, then, be better envisaged as a domain of entanglement. It is within such a tangle of interlaced trails, continually ravelling here and unravelling there, that beings grow or ‘issue forth’ along the lines of their relationships. (Ingold 2011: 71)

  5. The environment is not an “other” to us. It is not a collection of things that we encounter. Rather, it is part of our being. It is the locus of our existence and identity. We cannot and do not exist apart from it. It is through empathic projection that we come to know our environment, understand how we are part of it and how it is part of us. (Lakoff and Johnson 1999: 566)
