Settlers’ Guide is an ongoing research project which focuses on the impact of human settlement and migration on ecology and the exchange between human’s image production and ecology. It approaches and interprets ecology with several set variables. Since the use of camphor, a substance for film production, human beings have been producing images with natural resources and using camphor forests as a medium to redefine the exploited and reformed ecology so as to create a narrative to rationalize their settlement. This project unfolds East Asia’s economic history and natural resources cultivation narratives, illustrating the state of different species and their linkage to ecology with non-linear timelines.
