The essays in this volume were written on the occasion of the symposium on 'Landscape Architecture in Mutation' held at the ETH Zurich in October 2004. The contributors consider the changed aesthetic, functional and natural characteristics of urban landscapes, and present suitable approaches and procedures for their design and development. This book provides the theoretical background for the "mutation" of landscape architecture, illustrating theory with exemplary planning projects - ranging from individual to geographical scales - in Switzerland, Europe and the USA. The contributors represent various disciplines : landscape architecture, architecture, urban design, engineering, art history and cultural studies. In English with summaries in German.

Demos analyzes the biases within contemporary visual culture popular science websites, remote sensing and SatNav imagery, eco-activist mobilizations, and experimental artistic projects demonstrating that it does not merely describe a geologic period, but actively supports the neoliberal financialization of nature, anthropocentric political economy, and endorsement of geo-engineering as a preferred method of approaching climate change. To develop creative alternatives, Demos argues we need to carefully consider the underlying motives the Anthropocene thesis.
