the hollywood forest story

This eBook is the cultural artefact (the evidence from my creative practice) and the critical introduction for my successful PhD by Practice - The Ecological Turn: Living Well with Forests to Articulate Eco-Social Art Practices Using a Guattari Ecosophy and Action Research Framework (2018).



The text and audio-visual material in this eBook reflects the central creative practice of blogging for this eco-social practice, from my blog www.hollywoodforest.com. My blog follows the ongoing (since 2008) transformation of a monoculture tree plantation into a permanent, mixed species forest following new-to-Ireland Close-to-Nature continuous cover forestry practices.
