In 1992,3, or 4, I began research for writing a children’s story about landscape, including research about various landscapes, in particular one influenced by or that influenced children’s fairy tales. I’ve yet to write a landscape architecture children’s story, but might yet do so. What I’ve worked at the last quarter century is not outside the realm of landscape architecture, but I have not been actively making landscapes in cities; landscape architects who have been working long contributing much to the actual making of places through art and design especially might be best at writing a condensed and meaningful landscape architecture story.
I have written some left yet uncompleted art historical texts, with some complete and somewhat researched thoughts. I am not though trained as an art historian.
Long texts can help clarify, like water through many wetlands. So can poems and stories – but with poems and stories, there is a danger of adjoining or layering them incorrectly in the mind – but then, with poems and stories, one can know that one can never know absolutely if one has them arranged well without further research, and perhaps that is one of their fortes.
