components

i am trying to design a landscape that would be an artificial system that would be able to respond to whatever conditions were there. something that could do the things that the natural environment no longer can. i am trying to mentally build this thing out of a series of components that i am already relatively familiar with.

however, how can i design something that has never been seen or done using the things that i myself have seen? does that even make sense? an moving system, that people would want to visit their area because it reacted to those issues that they themselves could not solve. so, what solves them?

an immortal wetlands....

what does it do?

what are the functions?

provides breakwaters. stimulates habitat. channels/diverts water. peels up wasted surface. breakdown of dead. interaction of membranes. connects to environment. a moving scab.

how does it move? do those functions pause during that transportation?

a collective matrix. an environment in which _______ develops. a surrounding medium or structure.
