Modern culture has created patterns that aren't easy to see for a human being. Are we ironing out the details or heading to ecological crisis? Do we even know what our modern patterns are at this stage? Finn Mackesy is in studio for a second conversation about the Design Prinicple; Design from pattern to detail and how it can be applied to so many aspects of our lives.

What does gorse reveal about the natural pattern of our landscape? What's the natural size of a village of human beings? Where should be we put our house? Finn Mackesy joins us to discuss the permaculture design principle; Design from Pattern to Detail

We know a lot about this in our community but there is a lot more to the discussion that we might realise. Finn Mackesy is in studio to look at this Permaculture Design Principle.

Finn brings us a discussion about this permaculture design principle, one that seems particularly challenging to modern industrial culture

It sounds like personal advice and it could be, but it's also advice our species needs to take on board as we try to design our way out of the current ecological crisis

Finn Mackesy joins us again to talk about the permaculture design principal Obtain a Yield and how much we've lost focus on this issue in the modern world

Finn is in studio to talk about energy and the fundamental role it plays in our loves, how it underpins our economy and how we need to think about it.

Finn joins us to look at permaculture design principle Observe and Interact and we use his new property as an example

What are the design principals all about, why we need them and a look at just how integrated and holistic the permaculture approach is compared to reductionist science

Finn and Aaron have a second conversation about why the study of systems theory might be useful for pretty much everyone
