 +Bruno Latour's 'Politics of Nature': **The word Nature is more trouble than it is worth**. As he exclaims ‘Thank God, nature is going to die. Yes, the great Pan is dead’ (p. 25). The diagram is all you need to think about to understand his entire argument.On the left we have the current political model. Nature is split off as something that requires the philosopher-scientist hero to go out into this hidden world of primary qualities and bring back precious knowledge. The natural world is set against culture as either a chaotic force that needs to be controlled (i.e. modernism) or mother nature is in balance and we need to become attuned to her laws so as not to destroy her and ourselves (Gaia spiritualism). We should not aim to marry culture and nature together, but to dissolve the distinction entirely. 
 +On the right side of the diagram we can see what it means if we don’t split culture and nature and instead have a collective of non-human and human actants. The collective is in charge of collecting the multiplicity of associations between humans and non-humans. This is because the subject/object distinction has been removed and a politics proper can begin. review of politics by nature: http://avoidingthevoid.wordpress.com/2009/09/24/review-of-politics-of-nature-by-bruno-latour/\\
  
-=== Ludmila ===+The Flower ** Orpheum frutescens** has struck up an exclusive relationship with **the carpenter bee**. In order to get the tasty pollen the bee has to vibrate its wings at a particular frequency – middle C. These oscillations then make the flower open its stamens which releases the pollen, covering the bee in the fine yellow powder. This specific relationship ensures that the flowers’ pollen is taken by the carpenter bee to another flower of the same species, and so isn’t wasted. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cGKK7BRQHVQ\\
  
-After talking to Marloes and Mischa yesterday I came up with this Dutch documentary on a whole new thinking of design, recycling and the future of food. The theory Cradle to cradle is based on 0% trash generation, 100% compostation of objects we produce, buy and throw away. According to the architect William McDonough and the chemist Michael Baumgart (the two authors of the cradle-to-cradle ideology) things have to go faster, easier and cleaner to the environment. Recycling as we know today isn't real, it's actually downcycling. Recycling is only true when things are really useful for the environment and as good enough for us as if was brand new.+BBC series How to Grow a Planet. full episode 1 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1VNt0mwStZI
