Regenerative Empathy is a Studio Report from the Fall 2018 semester at the Harvard University Graduate School of Design based on the option studio “Rhizosphere,” taught by Teresa Galí-Izar It explores the relationship between humans and the natural world; it begins to answer the question of how to construct intelligent synergies between people, their cultures and economies, and the natural world in order to recuperate the fundamental sources of life on earth. The projects in this report touch on a broad range of disciplines: students translated their fieldwork, research on geological and climate data, research on food production, and surveys of scientific literature into drawings focusing on the “rhizosphere”—a term defined by agronomist Lorenz Hiltner in 1904 as the soil microbiology around the root system of plants. The investigations and drawings that comprise these reveal new potential assemblages for La Camargue in France, proposing new forms of association between the people, animals, and plants that inhabit the region
