research project about “Dragontree” or Dracanea Draco





Trees remember. Trees encrypt time in their wooden rings. Forests are custodians and keepers of the planet’s memory, capturing deep time in arboreal archives, creating a unique record of earth’s history. A tree ring is akin to a coded sliver of braille, making the deep past legible in thin bar codes of time. Scientists can now read in tree rings telltale traces of the Industrial Revolution, the ash of ancient volcanoes, meteor strikes, the signatures of tsunamis, past ice ages. Trees become code for capturing not only the recent human past, but events before humans even existed.

The spirit of the dragon tree is here to help us face the conflicting and chaotic forces that are at play in our life.It also reminds us that chaos can be a necessary force for creating positive change
