Delighted to speak about the Memory Palace of Tree Stories at the Embassy of Ireland in Beijing recently (July 28th) for the event Ambassadors for Nature. Over twenty embassies were present , many spoke about on what improvements were made to increase biodiversity of the green spaces on embassy grounds.
The event was hosted by Ambassador to Ireland Dr Ann Derwin and introduced by conservationist Terry Townshend . There were other interesting presentations from Beijing forest & parks Bureau Dr Wang Xiaoping Deputy Director , conservation groups,and educational projects .
Delighted to announce that my socio eco art practice “The Memory Palace of Tree Stories” has been awarded public funding via Carlow County Council and the Creative Ireland Carlow Programme . This support has helped me build a specially designated website for the gathering of peoples tree stories on video.
Very pleased to have a video from Ireland’s leading figure on The Earth Charter, Dr Cathy Fitzgearld. I have known Cathy for many years , and I have taken a number of her courses with Haumea Ecoversity such at Eco Literacy for Creatives and Cultural Professionals and most recently on the Earth Charter .
Cathy made this video in 2009 . Originally from Aotearoa , New Zealand, she was part of a biodiversity research trip to unpeopled Suwarrow atoll in the Cook Islands, South Pacific. Cathy is currently based in County Carlow, Ireland where she and her husband Martin have since 2008 , been diversifying a small conifer plantation forest on their land to become a mixed species, more resilient, more bird-song-filled small continuous cover forest (Hollywoodforest.com).
Delighted to get this tree story from a dear neighbour and good friend Sonia Gibbons. The Yew Trees near her gate have some special local history and contain the story of moving a church brick by brick across the river .
For video #13 I am delighted to have award winning writer John Mac Kenna read his poem Winter Apples, for the special season.
John is author of twenty three books and a number of radio and stage plays including his award winning radio documentary series on Leonard Cohen.
John is based near my hometown of Carlow, Ireland .
I recently met conservationist Mick Verspuij in Buncranna, Donegal, Ireland . He makes natural habitats for bee hives using old dead tree trunks . Here he talks about pollen and the Sycamore Tree in his yard. He has a few tree stories for the Memory Palace of Trees Stories.
森林的呼吸 -视频#10
我第一次接触到“森林的呼吸”这个概念是在读戴维·哈斯凯尔的书《树木之歌》(Songs of Trees)的时候。他谈到福尔摩沙松(Formosa Pine),我觉得“空气是4亿年来森林的呼吸”是一个绝妙的见解。
你可能会想,一个氧原子在多次与其他原子结合和断开之后,在变“老”以前,可能被循环利用过多少次?或者到底有没有原子变老这么一回事?
不管怎样,随着地球生命的进化,这些基本原子在不同的生命形式中往来循环。那么,当地球上的森林由于严重破坏正在以惊人的速度不断消失时,气体交换的平衡又将在哪里呢。

这里是一个一分钟的视频作品剪辑,这是十一月树的故事。
I first encountered the “Forest Breath” concept when reading David Haskell’s book “Songs of Trees”. He was discussing the Formosa Pine and I thought it a fascinating perception that “air is 400 millions years of forest breath”.
You might wonder how many times is it possible for an oxygen atom to be recycled after numerous binding and cleaving, before it gets ” too old” or if even there is such a thing as an atom getting old?
Nevertheless , these basic atoms pass in and out of different life forms as life evolved on earth. Where will the balance of this gas exchange lie as the globes forests continue to be decimated at break neck speed .

I can help with the editing and add the English or Chinese subtitles. Please ensure the sound quality of your recording is clear. If you are in Beijing I can come and video you if you wish. Please ask if you have any questions about this.
Looking forward to hearing from you. Please email me at niamh@niamhcunningham.com

Overview of Memory Palace of Tree Stories
在一个狂风大作的夏日,约瑟夫·斯图尔特分享了这样一首诗。
摇摆晃动,嘎吱作响,却站得坚定,
细枝嫩芽和责任在身。
虽然有时承担不易,
我们想要珍惜,想要守护。
当风透过树叶,吹过花朵,
看不见的树根紧抓着大地。
约瑟夫·斯图尔特是一位住在北京的教育工作者。
