DD is a past-present-futurist and synergetiscist who catalyzes regenerative relationships into exponential habits toward beneficial lifestyle patterns. She founded The Masters of Succession Collective to build an experimental community of like minded (permaculture practitioners) people working in relationship to each other & earth to grow community, village, town. Innovating healthier abundance possibilities.
The practice has synthesized 14 yrs of experimental lifestyle innovations into MoS’s “Microbes to Metropolis”: what is now six chronicles that lead to lifestyles of beneficial succession. The chronicles write themselves as they unfold to reveal one’s own living loving LoBS (Lifestyles of Bioremediation & Symbiosis).
The MoSMoBSLoBSLab offers this pedagogy to observe, learn and create reciprocal pathways and biological lifestyle patterns. The work exponentially expands interconnectedness toward Lifestyles of Bioremediation & Symbiosis (Living LoBS) as well as inherently creates the beneficial succession of water, air, soil & selves from microbes to metropolis.
DD has led and hosted 100’s of events with community associates & orgs. She’s taught as a visiting artist at private Universities & public schools and camps. She created 6 yrs of monthly newsletter invitations for the East Village Wellness Circles she co-lead : reciprocity based sharing wellness skills with practitioners as community to offer and receive. The societal wellness segment in the village is most foundational to this work by building deeper relationships and resilience.
