+Old categories need to collapse before we can begin to create a different dialogue on aesthetics in a sustainable culture.  We will need a new aesthetic to embrace the three categories of object, participation, and action without privileging the conventional formal characteristics of objects.  In this aesthetic, the distinctions between art, design, and architecture will blur as critics discover new relations between the value of form and the value of use. (...)  Imagination is an artist’s greatest asset. It can produce bold visions of what a sustainable future might be like. People can be moved and aroused by powerful environments, innovative designs, and practical demonstrations of active engagement. With open minds and a willingness to collaborate, those who seek a place in the culture of sustainability must move forward. The problem of “ecological aesthetics” will solve itself.
