I'm nervous like a school child having uploaded my first mini #zine (after 40 yrs), with my alien caressing #moss and building #mycelium: https://ko-fi.com/s/700d3d3138 - buying it, you also help me with some ugly bills (see my goal on #kofi).
More about my #zines + how to fold them: https://www.cronenburg.net/zines/
Have fun! I'm sketching the next!

Are you curious how I invented my micro-macro-amplifyer and why I like Dr Who? How I learned from a BBC colleague that a bed is important for work?

Backstage: Between Dr Who and Earth Sounds

Last week, someone asked me how I came up with the idea of interviewing a cactus and a bat. That would have been so freaky. I asked the person if they had never spoken…

#MustWatch for fans of #RobinWallKimmerer, author of Braiding #Sweetgrass and Gathering #Moss (a new book coming soon): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E7nsOAYNgKs

I didn't see it yet myself. I had been sad that she was live in #KewGardens and me in France, but just found out that the event exists as a video! And 5x15 Stories is always a good recommendation for fascinating people. Soon they will bring Merlin Sheldrake as a highlight! https://www.5x15.com/events/merlin-sheldrake-live-at-royal-botanic-gardens-kew

#Selfcare with plants. I'm awfully exhausted right now. But there's still a plant blooming in my garden that's a friend to me. You can talk to flowers and they chatter with their scent.

Sweet Lady Violet – Petra van Cronenburg

🧵 Unbelievable: Robin Wall Kimmerer's gorgeous book "Braiding Sweetgrass" was published 10 years ago. Unlike other global bestsellers, the book has changed people, woken them up and inspired them to take action. Rosanne Deerchild talks with the author in her podcast Unreserved:

Gentle book, giant impact: 10 years of Braiding Sweetgrass | Unreserved with Rosanna Deerchild | Live Radio | CBC Listen

It was an invitation to reconnect with the land, but Robin Wall Kimmerer's bestselling book ended up being more of a call to action. Braiding Sweetgrass: Indigenous Wisdom, Scientific Knowledge, and the Teachings of Plants is now ten years old. Robin tells us how her humble book of essays spread like seeds in the wind around the world, selling more than 1.6 million copies in the US alone. We also hear from readers and friends who were inspired by the book and took action in their own lives to change their relationships with plants, animals, rain drops...and each other!

It was the first time in my life that I saw this animal. When I was young, it was extinct in our landscapes. We were probably both equally astonished. He or she had an incredibly friendly appearance. And was so beautiful.

Close Encounters – Petra van Cronenburg

It was the first time in my life that I saw this animal. When I was young, it was extinct in our landscapes. I was left doubting because my first glance contradicted any better knowledge. My first impression and my feelings told me: Hey, this is a beaver looking at you!
