Here, I have a marble for you.

Yours, Leon

In my world, a marble is a metaphorical container for a note that I want to share and shape with you. It can be an idea, an insight, a piece of knowledge, or a question that I consider valuable for my life's ongoing dialogue.

I host it publicly to continue the flow of nutritious information in an effort to enlighten my dialogue with you, friends, and co-creators to build new systems, envision different realities, contemplate scientific insights, or have fun.

Designing with country

A design methodology to rebuild relationships between the land and people

Text reading: When First Nations speak of Country, it is about the place of their ancestors, stories, lore and knowledge. These memories and connections form the basis of songlines and bind people to their Country. Country is a matter of sustenance and is therefore as much a cultural and spiritual condition as it is a scientific or physical one. Acknowledging that a site belongs to a specific Country on a particular part of this continent enables us to draw inspiration, ideas and opportunities directly from that place and the people who belong to it. Our Designing with Country work guides the way we think about projects that engage with First Nations communities and contexts.
