Summary:

"Survival is a common practice. We need each other and we need tools and practices that help us to survive in this age of climate crisis and technological upheaval. We have to learn to live and think in contradictions without losing ourselves. The art in this book reflects on the relationship to nature, to planetary, transcendental questions of global connectivity as well as on community, with a sense of playfulness, a feeling of togetherness, of shared experiences through culture. It is a Manual for Survival"--From page [4] of cover.
