- The ecology of the cliff as seen in the Antartic. Alaska, with melting glaciers.
- Reality of the Inuit having to relocate due to their environment melting and becoming unstable.
- Like a domino effect the melting of the Polar Ice caps leads to effects elsewhere --> coastal zones (California, Florida & seasides) will slip underwater.
- With the cliff itself the sheer sides can provide a dwelling. Ie: rapelling and hanging pads.
- challenging the verticality of a cliff in a perpendicular manner like the Anasazi who live inside the cliff.
The Swamp:
- Idea of above/below --> Florida swampland where only the ghost orchid grows versus danger of alligators pikes and snakes.
- mire/stuck/heat/floating/heiarchy
- the Swamp was the end result of Hurricane Katrina breaking levees: --> Military Hydrology
- cult movie: The Swamp Thing . 1982
The Forest:
- Environmental canopy - shade
- ground dwellers - live in roots on forest floor often without sunlight
- canopy dwellers - rotate from tree to tree oftentimes not even going to the ground at all
- Large net where several scientists live for months documenting the Amazon or in Madagascar
- hierarchy within the verticality similar to cliff
- a collection - repitition forms the whole
