How important are river catchments in defining bioregions?
I am currently working on a podcast series about the Highland Boundary Fault. As part of this I recently interviewed Clare Cooper and Marian Bruce in Marian’s farmhouse on the edge of the town of Aylth, north-west of Perth. The

Art and the Bioregion
Maisie Ingram, a student at Glasgow School of Art, recently stayed at the cabin in Ferry Wood and produced a series of paintings, including this one. The artistic temperament is well suited to bioregioning. One takes ones time, immersing oneself,

Defining my bioregion as coastal rainforest
The rainforest defines my bioregion. All bioregions are defined by water to a greater or lesser extent, and mine is no exception, though it is different from many others in that it is not based in a water catchment but

Gaia Story – 6 – Origin Story for Life
What is Gaia theory’s relevance to us as the rest of the century unfolds? You might think it’s the contribution it makes to future climate models, enabling us to predict what will happen if we keep on pumping huge amounts

Gaia Story – 3 – Lovelock and Margulis: Meeting of Minds
A crucial aspect of Gaia is that it is multi-disciplinary. We have already seen how Lovelock sought the help of a mathematician, Watson, in working out Daisyworld. Around the same time he was having “long and intense discussions” with the

Gaia Story – 2 – Daisyworld
The Gaia hypothesis ran into controversy from the outset. Lovelock decided that in order to answer his critics he needed somehow to simplify it without distorting it, for in doing so he would be able to create a mathematical model

The Gaia Story – 1 – Intro
Bioregionalism is a way of seeing ourselves as part of a complex ecosystem which – over time – we, as humans, have both modified and adapted to. This constant too-and-fro continues to form our human “culture”. Gaia can be seen

Edgeland Chronicles by me (Ed Tyler)
I have published a book about bioregionalism: not an academic thesis but a fictional fantasy set in the mid-21st Century and featuring the people living in the archipelago off the NW coast of Europe, which, in 2023, consists of the

Spirals on the beach
A few weeks ago Carina and I were walking along the beach near Muasdale when we met up with a local aquaintance, who was delighted to tell us he’d seen a rock uncovered by the tide with spirals carved into
