The Origins of the Film 'Reading Landscape'

The film 'Reading Landscape' originated from a permaculture design project involving David Holmgren and colleague Dan Palmer. Palmer, inspired by Holmgren's expertise in reading the landscape, proposed recording Holmgren's interpretations. The project grew organically, involving filmmaker Dave Mahr and gradually incorporating other people. The film aims to communicate the fundamental skill of reading landscape for permaculture design and the innate ability humans have to connect with and understand their environment.
