This practice-as-research project will explore how the practices of walking, filmmaking and poetry can be combined to bring new perspectives to environmental communication through non-binary thinking. The project centres on the geography and interconnected ecologies of the River Wye, Rheidol and Severn who share their source at Plynlimon, Mid-Wales. I will use the gesture of walking to negotiate different physical entanglements with nature and to nurture a radical form of ecological documentary that challenges existing environmental communication through an embodied response to climate crisis. To achieve this, I will draw on theories of hydrofeminism, queer ecology and transmateriality, creating research outcomes that are also crucially designed to foster public engagement: first, I will produce a series of essay films based on encounters with river ecologies; second, I will produce an interactive map of creative river samples in the digital realm that will be delivered via a dedicated website; finally, the project will result in a public exhibition of film and poetry.

这个以实践为研究的项目将探索如何将步行、电影制作和诗歌的实践结合起来，通过非二元思维为环境传播带来新的视角。该项目以怀河、Rheidol河和Severn河的地理和相互关联的生态为中心，这些河流在威尔士中部的Plynlimon共享它们的源头。我将用行走的姿态来与自然协商不同的物理纠缠，并培育一种激进的生态纪录片形式，通过对气候危机的具体回应来挑战现有的环境交流。为了实现这一目标，我将借鉴水上女权主义、酷儿生态学和超物质性的理论，创造出同样重要的研究成果，以促进公众参与：首先，我将制作一系列基于与河流生态相遇的散文电影；其次，我将在数字领域制作一幅创意河流样本的互动地图，并通过一个专门的网站发布；最后，该项目将导致一个电影和诗歌的公共展览。
