The Process of Activity.

"Consider, Music and Dance are both ephemeral, performance arts. So is gardening. Gardens, after all, are always changing, growing, or dying, and you must learn to treat them as a process, an activity rather than a static work."

"The notes of a Garden composer are those landscape elements- rocks, plants, timber, and water- that you arrange to create a view, a picture, an experience. Architecture, like the composer's rhythm and harmony, is what bounds the experience and defines it."

James Van Sweden, Architecture in the Garden, 2002
