A NEW WILDNESS

ABOUT THE BOOK

We believe public awareness is powerful. Rather than a report of the species conservation project, A New Wildness is part manifesto, part manual, part prospectus. It aims to inspire readers to perceive the wilderness in a broader context and conceptualize the dispersed and interrelated wildness in their own ways of seeing.

INTRODUCTION

ABOUT THE PROJECT

- Open and aggregated - Zoo as conservation - Boundary as landscape as infrastructure In terms of conservation by design, the design research project will challenge the paradigm of ‘nature reserve’ and explore a new wilderness for the Yangtze Finless Porpoise through the scopes of ‘wildness’, ‘openness’ and ‘aggregated territory’. The design outcome would become an open and aggregated zoo as an alternative for the existing conservation.

A NEW WILDNESS

A NEW WILDERNESS SCOPE OF WILDNESS

Wilderness is an on-going nature composed by all species living on the planet and reversely having impacts on each. ‘Any way of looking at nature that encourages us to believe we are separate from nature-as wilderness tends to do-is likely to reinforce environmentally irresponsible behaviour’ (Cronon, 1996). New wildness is therefore a scope of rethinking the openness of nature reserve and an alternative for conservation suggesting an aggregated territory zoo.

CONSERVATION CONCERNS

The finless porpoise’s survival depends heavily on habitat stability and food resource availability (Wang, 2009). If conservation just focus on species protection, the three existing measures of protecting the Yangtze Finless Porpoise, which are in situ conservation, ex situ conservation and captive breeding program, may just be ‘virtually equivalent to the ex situ protection of wildlands’ (Soulé, 1991), overlooking the Eco geological and social context.

-14-


AN OPEN & AGGREGATED ZOO

BEHAVIOR AND ECOLOGY DEMANDS

Shallow waters, swamps and etuaries are common areas where they can be found.

Finless porpoise are primarily known for eating fish, prawn, squid, octopus and shrimp.

Finless porpoises are seen as single animals, pairs, or in groups of up to about 20.

Finless poroises are also believed to consume plant-life in

HABITAT CORRIDOR The habitat corridor of the porpoise is located in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River from Yichang to Shanghai. The territorial mapping shows that the corridor has been dispersed into patches in between urban sprawls, which matches the finding of the 2012 Yangtze Freshwater Dolphin Survey Report.

IMPLEMENTATION FRAMEWORK 1. PEOPLE ENGAGED

The Yangtze Dolphin Conservation Network found in 2012 is the direct client of the project. The protection union, which consists of government department, research institute, and founds, covers the policy making, research, financial support, education and promotion of the conservation. In meeting the requirements of clients, the project proposes a platform for policy operation and researches as well as an open zoo for education and promotion concern.

ASSEMBLE THE ZOO SCOPE OF AGGREGATED TERRITORY

Aggregated territory emphasizes the potential of peripheral sites. It is a collection of dispersed sites in natural and socioeconomic aspects, which functions both physically and virtually. The zoo is looking for utilizing existing infrastructure and setting stage for open sourced conservation.

AGGREGATED SITE

‘Unlike the treelike, hierarchical structure of traditional cities, the contemporary metropolis functions more like a spreading rhizome, dispersed and diffuse, but at the same time infinitely enabling’(Wall,1999). The ‘aggregated territory’ will borrow the idea of a spreading rhizome, explode the linear boundary of the ‘zoo’ into different frontiers and allow for open-ended interactions. Emphasizing ‘aggregated territory’, the zoo embeds the infrastructure of the existing site.

In the process of constructing the site for the zoo, regional mapping of the Dongting Lake gathers fragment information from Google earth, researches, news, essays and other sources, such as blogs and websites, visualizing and assembling the connection under the scope of ‘wildness’ and ‘aggregated territory’. The general atlas of Dongting Lake is a collection representing our research to maps as well as a guidebook for you to help us close the data gaps and assemble ideas via wandering at the zoo.

AGGREGATED ZOO BOUNDARIES BOUNDARIES OF AGGREGATED TERRITORY

As an open zoo, its boundary is connected to all of us. We might perceive and conceptualize it through a new way of seeing. These three pilot projects are therefore an exploration for us to understand and visualize the boundaries of aggregated territory in a new wilderness. Different from the perception of a site, the zoo is distributed in terms of spatial and social context. ‘These might be called peripheral sites, middle landscapes that are neither here nor there, and yet are so pervasive as to now characterize the dominant environment’(Wall, 1999). Hence, landscape as an agent (Corner, 1999) will intervene with the infrastructure and aim to grow and expand with collective engagements.

‘A

implementation of measures to protect a threatened or endangered species is an understanding of the species distribution and an accurate estimate of its abundance’ (Wang, 2009). This statement is one of the requirements of the client, to track the finless porpoise. And WWF, member of the protection network, also suggested a nature reserve along the east Dongting Lake as a migration channel for the species.

MIGRATION CHANNEL OPERATION

Indeed, free-ranging finless porpoises are among the most difficult cetacean species to observe visually. Passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) is a rapidly evolving discipline that facilitates the investigation of the behavior of many aquatic mammals over a range of spatial and temporal scales, including at night and during adverse weather.

The migration channel is therefore designed based on the requirement of survey methods. The boundary of the channel consists of a series of buoys, which detect finless porpoise with sonar and perform as traffic signals for vessels.

The lake has shrunk in size by more than a half as a result of large scale land reclamation in 1950s. Due to reed farming and accessibility of water transportation, paper mills were established around the lake. This reed cycle has not only resulted in wetland destruction but water pollution as well as fall in fish stocks.

Paper industries was an important economic pillar in the Dongting lake surrounding areas, employing over 18,000 people in Changde, Yiyang and Yueyang cities. But the water pollution problem was left unsolved for a long period of time. Shortage of drinkable water has become a concern for the region. And the pollution issue also accounts for the fall in output of fishery and aquaculture, forcing illegal fishing indirectly.
