MUR 001 + ALBAN MANNISI & HAEYONG JEONG + MARITORY BIOCRACY
Immersive environmental workshops with local custodian and stakeholders will allow the team and participants to discuss Ishigaki's and other regional environmental ethics from ongoing and transitive customs and practice of the land. Each workshop dangisho will be organised around specific topics of practices, customs to stimulate a lively discussion around specific inquiries such as follow:
- How can you describe your work, practice in Ishigaki? How is it specific to the region, Island and how much do you consider it different from similar practice outside Ishigaki and /or mainland Japan?
- Do you consider your practice and customs as part of Ishigaki cultural landscape/heritage? How would you evocate its singularities to be sustained?
- What is the biggest challenge of your activities and how your community support you?
