start with a general introduction of Machine Wilderness and the workshop / 30min

then move outside for a visit to some mixed green zone, do warm up / 15min

people each explore the terrain imagining a typical day of an animal / 20 min

[what are it's daily goals?]

[what are it's daily challenges?]

[what opportunities is it looking for?]

[how / where does it get information to act on?]

[what social communities does it belong to?]

[how does it avoid danger?]

[what is it's energy source?]

[how does it celebrate it's existence?]

take notes, make sketches in notebooks

regroup and review what happened, feedback from group and by Matthew from experience in behavioral ecology. / 10 min

explore the same are looking at the animal as a force of influence on its environment / 15 min

regroup and review what occurred, feedback from group and by Matthew from experience in behavioral ecology. / 10 min

decide if you work alone or in a group

based on our observations from the perspective of the animal we try to design a 'wilderness machine' based on it's phenology

so imagine you are a machine that wants to be a bird (i.e. your animal of choice) and learn how to do that by joining the local population

[how would you (the machine) make contact?]

[where would you go, what would do?]

[what would be your strategy?]

[what role could you play in that community / population?]

explore the area looking at the force of influence of your 'wilderness machine'

we go back inside, review, document(!) and relax
