Español Biolandscape as an alternative for sustainable cities and communities

Feeling the landscape

Abstract

Biolandscape, it breathes, it changes, it transforms, it is formed by complex living systems in constant movement and connected to each other. Any alteration in any of its components generates consequences and alterations in the rest of the components and systems. Biolandscape gets sick, dies, rebuilds, it is resilient. Biolandscape is perceived and understood with all the senses, with the whole body, with all the history, with all the wisdom inherited and transmitted. Biolandscape expresses itself, it shouts, it whispers, it sings. Biolandscape is much more than an image. Biolandscape is a cultural construction that allows the human being to interpretate and experience through the sensory process, wich decodes external stimulus to understand them and value them through the cognitive process. Biolandscape means a multisensory live through experience that builds a connection between the parts, which reconnects the individual with all its components and systems.
