with Robert Macfarlane
In English we typically ‘it’ and ‘which’ and ‘that’ the living world, and you would say ‘the river that flows’ or ‘the river which flows’, but I have tended to speak of ‘the river who flows’. It is just a way of recognizing the otherness of the subjects with whom we share our world, not the objects we dominate in our world.

We consistently find that people who are engaged more regularly in arts activities over time have lower odds of developing mental health problems. One of the important things is to understand why and how it is that the arts affect our health.
