A series of brief interviews with animals, offering them a chance to give us a perspective on their environment.

    The Dipper

    This Dipper is part of a series commissioned by University of Derby’s Nature Connectedness Research Group for The River Derwent.  With many thanks to Mark Cocker, author and naturalist. "I think it’s a fantastic quiet bit of politics because the central challenge of our entire species and our civilisation is to understand our dependence on the rest of life and this project allows those organisms, as close as possible, to speak for themselves about the issues that affect not only them but more centrally humans themselves and I think that’s the beauty of it.” Mark Cocker on Messages from the Wild   further info: annabel@annabelross.com
