  1. If you have a similar #drought and extreme #heatwaves like here in eastern France, you probably watch this phenomenon: all-year blooming #roses didn't develop new #flower buds, but suddenly and too early #rosehips.
    This rose never had rosehips and usually blooms until November!

    This is a #survivalMode of many #plants. They focus all their energy in seed production for the survival of their species. If the drought persists, the mother plant dies.

  2. It happened: After a long creative crisis, I blogged again:

    I’ve regained my passion for #writing human-made texts in a world of slop and scraping. And with #NatureMatchCuts I'll talk about more than nature topics. I'll talk about how we can find #hope and motivation to act in these weird times.

  3. #WordWeavers 18. What's your favourite line you've written this year?

    The line that I write here:
    I have an idea.

  4. #Insects are often forgotten during a #heatwave #drought. Not all can walk on deep water in #birdbaths. I use flowerpot coasters filled with some stones and fallen mossy branches. When a lot of moss fell down from an old tree, I filled one mainly with the dried moss. Surprise: it slowly gets green again and much smaller insects can land and drink, even butterflies come! And bigger animals.

  5. Today I was reading a title story about an owl. About an Ukrainian owl. And my first thought was: Oh my, another one of these “cute animal stuff” reports. But it was much more, it was a story about humans who choose being humane. steady.page/en/naturematchcuts

  6. I never thought anyone still bought zines these days! But hey, I’ve got my first customers. 🥰 That’s motivating me to come up with a few more, hopefully when things calm down a bit. What would you like to see:

  7. I just saw the first bumble bee! Tiny insects are flying again. This is the time to come out of my hibernation modus and write more about #nature. I talk about #snails, and as they are still in their protection places, reflect on Homo-not-so-sapiens: steady.page/en/naturematchcuts

  8. I raged against the machine. And every time, I am surprised anew at how creative anger makes me. 😈 I even write faster. 🤭 See my new article "Snails Or Slop Slime" steady.page/en/naturematchcuts
    Provoked by a fake page for #naturelovers on a big platform.

  10. 🧵 They live in our fluids like fish in the ocean, they breath in our lung or even leave our body. Your tiny bodymates are bacteria, archaea, fungi, protists and viruses.
    The figures vary, but you probably consist of just as many non-human cells as human cells! And neither can or wants to live without the other. Your skin is a planet for such a tiny alien: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/

  11. 🧵 Yes, everyone comes out with this now ... but I wanted to mention that I have an account on ko-fi ko-fi.com/naturematchcuts and, like many other freelancers, I fuel my storytelling with #coffee! :blobcatcoffee:
    So I don't run on fossil fuels and I am purely human in the outer*** shell and brain.

    *** which is a lie. These tiny little aliens in our body, named #microbiome, don't live only in our gut but also on our skin.

  12. This photo reportage is genuine, created in a real Homo sapiens brain, and produced without any AI rubbish: an #expedition to a distant #planet where strong evidence of life had been found: the planet Elder 0815, part of the famous Mosslich-system. ▶️ steady.page/en/naturematchcuts

  14. I'm nervous like a school child having uploaded my first mini #zine (after 40 yrs), with my alien caressing #moss and building #mycelium: ko-fi.com/s/700d3d3138 - buying it, you also help me with some ugly bills (see my goal on #kofi).
    More about my #zines + how to fold them: cronenburg.net/zines/
    Have fun! I'm sketching the next!

  15. #ArtAdventCalendar Day 4

    I think that nature is a better artist than me. Perhaps therefore, my jacket and trouser pockets are always full after a walk in the woods. And then I put the stuff on the table and talk to it, or it talks to me. After all that chatting, I have a new collage. 😉

  16. 🧵 After 40 years, I'm back in #zines. The prototype was made for testing and giving me ideas how I could colour my little #alien, I'm now drawing the final version. I haven't quite decided yet what materials I'll use to colour it in: felt-tip pens or watercolours.
    Yes, one day you can download it. It takes time, it's my first one after so much time and Im quite rusty. 😁

  17. I'm back in #zines (after a 40-year hiatus)! Back in drawing weird little stuff. 😊

    On the one side, it's my personal "therapy" or #activism against #AI #scraping of #artists: #AI and #llm can't fold paper or have fun with silly stuff like a moss caressing alien.

    On the other side, I'm fascinated by the modern forms and the possibilities of #storytelling for children and adults. And it makes me happy!

  18. 'Whatever you do, it can work as social glue, become a visible political protest. But the best of all: in participating, you are no longer isolated, you became part of a group or movement. And all these tiny parts form something big enough that others can’t overlook it any more.'

  20. There is nothing to do with my circulation today. I want to continue working on my #BiodiversityShrines in the studio. First, I have to go back to #feeling. Feel analogies, see parallels, and play with #associations. My #perspective has to change.

    It's also a good way to prepare for the #podcast. The next episode of #NatureMatchCuts will be published at the end of the month. The last episode about our #senses in #nature: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ #artist #science #reconnectWithNature #NatureArt
