Just sharing an astute observation:

"The answers to our questions are everywhere; we just need to change the lens with which we see the world."

Once again, this elegant expression of "compressed wisdom", as I like to call it, drives home my point about the importance of enhancing our perceptual sensitivity and paradigm pliancy.

THE ANSWERS TO OUR QUESTIONS ARE EVERYWHERE...

BIOMIMICRY: LEARNING FROM MOTHER NATURE

Ever since I had read Janine Benyus' luscious book, 'Biomimicry: Innovation Inspired by Nature', at the tail end of the nineties, I have been hooked by what we can learn from Mother Nature.

In addition to the foregoing book, here are two great resources on biomimicry:

- Biomimicry Institute;

- Biomimicry Guild: The Innovation Consultancy for Bio-inspired Design;

A brief write-up on author Janine Benyus & the latest developments in biomimicry can be found at this link.
