Hands-on Healing
Although Hand-on Healing has had virtually no visibility, conceptually it is at the heart of the vision of Information Habitat and holds a vision - and encourages the practice - of discovering a wealth of opportunities to engage in hands-on healing relationships with the Earth and with other people - cultivating a living organic garden, preparation of healthy food, healing massage, picking up and recycling waste, and with hands on keyboards; discovering ways that electronic communication - with the new forms of public dialogue and access to information it makes possible - can become a healing force. in part by restoring common access to the properties of the whole, and making it possible for all voices to be heard.
