SUMMARY OF “GREEN MIND”

The Nature has desire for its existence, and follows the circulation of the nature once it is satisfied.
However, human beings are different as they pass over the circulation of the nature to the next level
of possessive desire. We try to overcome it with our morals, but dual desire of human beings that
comes from unconsciousness, cannot be changed by only trying.

Unlike other species, human instinct has achieved an enormous civilization by their dual instinct
of the existence and possession. Only humans form a group called society, and live above Nature
through their technology and civilization. The history of disobeying Nature is called a civilization
but human souls are always unstable before desire. Human beings cannot be defined in one, and
even the identity of their essence does not exist. Thus, defining human souls have been an
unsolvable task for a long time. All the past that humans have created have come to our present,
and have been such a burden to all of us. That's why Green should accompany the Nature and
entire life of human beings. In other words, political, economic, social, and cultural reflection
of morals should be accompanied.

Green is a concrete concept which should be practiced in a daily life for sustainable life.
Thinking spirit must accompany a behaving body in practicing Green. Green should be practiced
whenever, wherever, and by whomever, relating to direct and objective facts. On the contrary,
human life consists of free choice, relating to subjective ideas. After all, even though everything
seeks harmony with Yin and Yang in the Universe, human desire cannot always find its way to flow.
Therefore, hostile relationship with Green locks up human beings in conflict and nervousness.
Mutual agreement for the harmony of human beings and Green is required at this stage.
As a part of the discussion, we would like to explore the experimental alternatives about
'harmonious co-existence of human and Nature'.

It's Quest of Green Grail. This is also a gesture, realizing borderless Green scenery at the contact
point between consciousness and subconsciousness. This gesture follows a spirit which motivates desire
in reality. It is inseparable from spirit. To the question, "Is it spirit, or body?", 'Green' is the answer.
It begins with Green at the starting point, transcending the conflict between spirit and body.

As the Descartes' rational philosophy retreats, the philosophy of body speaks for the era of desire.
Human beings are participating in an era of experimentation as desire communicates a sensual life.
This follows eras of religion, philosophy, and reason. The Body that was once understood as an
unconscious substance now acts as a power plant of feeling and in reality becomes a personal asset.
Until now, human beings have been just like trees looking up the sky whereas they are serious and
conscious of others as to the matter of the Body.

Desire maintains its balance by opposing the culture. The culture itself is tension between things
that already exists and things that need to be existed. Requiring its existence means that they
are needed in terms of social moral. We would like to shed light on the exit for the conflict of
human's instinct desire and social desire through the messages from the members of
"Green Plus You Group".

"Well designed box is well designed garbage?" For our designers, understanding Green design
means same as understanding an era of Green. Not everything is a design, but it is about everything.
Although, challenging and exploring Nature could mean admitting that we are sinful and powerless
before Nature, life is not a task that we can solve, but mystery that we have to experience.
However, we would like to share the alternatives of realizing sustainable life with small but true
conscience as a human being living this age.
