This web constituted by a space of ±50km2 area for a time of 30 days, tied me up with 4 Dutch and Belgian farmers that I have found through the landscape they live in. This same landscape provides pastures for their domesticated animals (cows and goats) to graze plants that they digest and transform into the milk that I purchased. On my way to each one of the 4 farms, I described the landscape. The landscape is the addition of living beings growing, hunting, socialising and working in the surroundings of the road network from home to farms (fields, buzards, sheds, trees, goose, ponds, crows, etc.) | This web constituted by a space of ±50km2 area for a time of 30 days, tied me up with 4 Dutch and Belgian farmers that I have found through the landscape they live in.

I also extracted a small piece of soil from the pastures I got milk from. Along the purchased milk, this soil sample brought back home was “visited” with a microscope to look for living beings in these soils, reflecting on the decomposers’ primal activity to decay and recycle organic matter, the changes threatening their mutualism, and its analogy with the way microbe societies make cheeses. | I also extracted a small piece of soil from the pastures I got milk from.
