FE4.6 - An Island Unto Itself

What does it mean to live on an island? Is it to be independent from, or inexorably dependent on the rest of the world? And when the ecosystem's physical limitations are so clearly circumscribed, do people behave more "environmentally"?

In this episode, we visit Adam's home island of Galiano, and find out just how big its ecological footprint really is.

FE4.4 - Model Citizens: Fair Game (Part 1)

North America abounds in wildlife — but why?

At the turn of the last century, many observers believed that species that we take for granted today would disappear forever. In this episode, we share a story about the way that wildlife conservation came to be practiced, the lives that it privileged, and the lives that it left out.

FE4.2 - Terminal

As economic imperatives press up against ecological thresholds, a mega-project that has been in development for over a decade is poised to further alter the character of the estuary, with massive implications for the health of Salish Sea and its many residents. In this episode, we ask: can we find ways to hear each other through all the noise?

FE3.10 - Goatwalker: An Open Wound (Part 4)

What is a border? Is it simply an edge: a sharp transition between one state and another?

In this final chapter of Goatwalker, we uncover the ties that bind ecosystems, identities, and communities of all sorts – migrant or otherwise.

Mushrooms that smell? Fungi can be pungent, provocative, and at times irresistible.

In this episode, we stop to smell the Russulas – examining the fascinating fragrances of Kingdom Fungi.

FE3.5 - The Story of the Understory of the Understory

FE3.5 - The Story of the Understory of the Understory

In collaboration with the Serpentine Galleries, we present a poetic collage featuring the voices of The Understory of the Understory: a virtual symposium bringing together practitioners from many disciplines to consider the ground beneath our feet across ecologies, politics and spiritualities. With vignettes ranging from co-evolution to condensation, from medicine to mycomorphism, and from death to dust and back again.

FE3.3 - Nature, by Design? Freakological Fallacies (Part 3)

FE3.3 - Nature, by Design? Freakological Fallacies (Part 3)

Hyper-ecologies; novel ecosystems; freakosystems – different names for the same thing: never-before-seen assemblies of lifeforms, born of human disturbance. These profoundly weird ecologies are persistent, and (through a certain lens) often functional.
