 **How do we proceed?**
+/ "proto-personhood" for trees: 'law', relationships of management & property
+/ "philosophical": why
+/ "physicality": 'functionality', relationships to other people/things
+A lot of trees have numbers, all trees have a owner in Belgium but with different status (forest, private property, city of bssls)
+So maybe interesting to add the parameter of 'owner/user' to the series of tree-parameters and talk about 'lineage/species' instead of nationality
+-> who owns it? Who has an interest in using it?
+A tree is defined by lineage but also by 'the context': a tree in the city will be different, climbed, polluted, dependant on humans (candle stick prunage)...)
+-> where do the seeds come from? where did it grow up?
+We make a checklist and look at it from different perspectives
+Perspective of a tree: does not want to be chopped off & wants the right to light, soil & water
+Day 2
+- looked at 'Oak du marais' in rue des Minimes, transplanted 6 years ago from somewhere else, serves as a 'bar', a meeting place, lighted by humans, hosts birds...
+- look at trees in front of Walvis, planned to be chopped: platans, protest because they are the 2 only trees at that side of the Boulevard (between Yser & Porte de Ninove), and because they will be replaced by 3 new trees planted 3,5 m closer to the bar (effect: the terrace will be half as big)
+- discussion on the 'arboresceal persona'
+We create it and integrate it in our daily language, start taking it into account -> method of 'invocation', it will start to exist
+Look at the bigger picture: what if trees have legal identity & rights?
+How will we co-live with them: as separate entities or as chimera of tree/humans
