We are all part of this crazy singular biome we call earth.

“People can’t anticipate how much they’ll miss the natural world until they are deprived of it. I have read about submarine crewmen who haunt the sonar room, listening to whale songs and colonies of snapping shrimp. Submarine captains dispense “periscope liberty” - a chance to gaze at clouds and birds and coastlines - and remind themselves that the natural world still exists. I once met a man who told me that after landing in Christchurch, New Zealand, after a winter at the South Pole research station, he and his companions spent a couple of days just wandering around staring in awe at flowers and trees. At one point, one of them spotted a woman pushing a stroller. “A baby!” he shouted, and they all rushed across the street to see. The woman turned the stroller and ran. Nothing tops space as a barren, unnatural environment. Astronauts who had no prior interest in gardening spend hours tending experimental greenhouses. “They are our love,” said cosmonaut Vladislav Volkov of the tiny flax plants - with which they shared the confines of Salyut 1, the first Soviet space station. At least in orbit, you can look out the window and see the natural world below. On a Mars mission, once astronauts lose sight of Earth, they’ll be nothing to see outside the window. “You’ll be bathed in permanent sunlight, so you won’t eve see any stars,” astronaut Andy Thomas explained to me. “All you’ll see is black.””

FROM THE HANDSET #05 Gärten, Landschaft und das Genie der Natur (Gardens, landscape and the genius of nature) – Gilles Clémant – Matthies&Seitz Berlin, 2015 "So much free energy: the gardener only has to listen, ... As much as possible with, as little as possible against. Thus, the artist of the future garden will accept the great cooperation of nature as a co-signer of his work."

FROM THE HANDSET #04 Glorious Disarray | The creation of a garden – Joyce Robinson – Michael Joseph LTD, London, 1990 "If you are building ... gardens ... then you must continually look forward to the time when you have to pass it on. What to do with it? This plot of yours must be cared of by somebody else, but whom and when?" // Part of DAS GARTENCENTER a video installation by IRIS-A-MAZ at Sautter&Lackmann Sommerlager //

FROM THE HANDSET #03 Der Landschaftsgarten oder Die Entstehung der Zeit aus dem Raum (The Landscape Garden or The Emergence of Time from Space) – Barbara Riederer – Manutius Verlag, Heidelberg, 1998 "Undoubtedly, we can distinguish whether a garden composition is successful or not. But we can hardly distinguish whether the composition owes its effect to nature or to art. "Mixing of art and nature", Schiller notes in his scheme on dilettantism under the heading "garden art"."

FROM THE HANDSET #02 Tamaviaartumik [Leidenschaft] (Tamaviaartumik [Passion]) – Finn Larsen – The Architektual Book B, Copenhagen, 2006 "The word "garden" is etymologically related to the word "fence," and the representation of the garden as an enclosed, regulated world, a place of recreation and enjoyment set apart from wild nature, is reflected in images of Arcadia from the Renaissance, Neoclassical, and Romantic periods."

FROM THE HANDSET #01 Die Entdeckung der Landschaft (The discovery of the landscape) – Hansjörg Küster, C.H.Beck, München, 2012 "... What we call "nature conservation" often includes human intervention, for example through maintenance measures. They have nothing or not much to do with nature, but are components of culture emanating from man."
