In August of 2001, Chris and Sophie Reed, with their two young daughters in tow, sold everything they owned and left sunny Davis, California for soggy Normandy, France. Chris chronicled the ups and downs of the journey in a series of columns for the Davis Enterprise. What didn't appear in the columns, however, was the collapse of the Reeds' marriage and Chris' downward spiral into a life of drunkenness, assorted debaucheries and dead-end relationships. The Right Place for Love is the cathartic memoir of one man's journey through France's cultural and social landscape, all the while battling his own emotional demons. Filled with humor, insight and unflinching honesty, the story of Chris' life in France is a wile, sometimes disturbing, but ultimately inspiring ride.

The past two decades have witnessed a resurgence of ecological ideas and ecological thinking in discussions of urbanism, society, culture, and design. The field of ecology has moved from classical determinism and a reductionist Newtonian concern with stability, certainty, and order in favor of more contemporary understandings of dynamic systemic change and the related phenomena of adaptability, resilience, and flexibility. But ecology is not simply a project of the natural sciences. Researchers, theorists, social commentators, and designers have all used ecology as a broader idea or metaphor for a set of conditions and relationships with political, economic, and social implications. Projective Ecologies takes stock of the diversity ofcontemporary ecological research and theory-- embracing Felix Guattari's broader definition of ecology as at once environmental, social, and existential--and speculates on potential paths forward for design practices. Where are ecological thinking and theory now? What do current trajectories of research suggest for future practice? How can advances in ecological research and modeling, in social theory, and in digital visualization inform, with greater rigor, more robust design thinking and practice?
