If asked what all people can agree with, we can see one answer: we all love Nature, one way or another. Scientists believe we only know ten percent of all the species on our planet. Impossible creatures (one can perceive as atoms, molecules, or minerals) playfully deliver computer codes, with an underlying notion that everything is connected: in nature, materials, sciences, techniques, computing, and the arts. In this innovative space, these characters introduce programming. While coding is intertwined into simple facts, Nature Appreciation shows ways we appreciate nature, thus, helping us learn in a playful, nonjudgmental way.

Knowledge is divided into subjects and classes at schools, colleges, then universities. Facts, processes, and rules cannot be separated. They are all connected: biochemistry, product materiality changes from matter to energy and vice versa, and conversion of one state into another. In this book, they are considered as different ways of living, such as geo, earth, soil, minerals, and natural resources experienced when walking on the ground. Waves, communication, transformation, music, light, color - everything is related to light, electromagnetic waves, oscillation and vibration, visually static worlds, space exploration, and deep underwater are included as well.

It is a part of the “Knowledge Through the Arts” series, consisting of:

Dance Code - Dance Steps as a Code
