Li Ziqi, Dianxi Xiaoge, Jonna Jinton, Annabel Margaret and Paola Merrill draw on their culture and use technological equipment and social media (especially YouTube) to build dynamic narratives about living in the countryside. Through their online platform they show unique, picturesque footage of their daily routines and rural environments, and present the ways in which they nurture connections between people in the community and animals and landscapes. The study shows how, paradoxically, their digital life writing projects attempt to resist the attention economy but at the same time use strategies to sustain it. Through the various lenses of ecobiography, cultural ecology, digital archiving, ecospirituality, phytography, and ethological poetics, this book also foregrounds the significance of plant life and landscapes – they are reminders of how human lives are inextricably entangled with traditional values and the natural world. Alberta Natasia Adji is a contemporary author and researcher in women’s life narratives. She completed her PhD on auto/biographical fiction at Edith Cowan University, Perth, Western Australia, in 2023. Her autobiographical project focuses on family history of Chinese Indonesians from 1959 to 2014. Adji was awarded the 2023 School of Arts and Humanities Research Medal by ECU for the quality of her doctoral research thesis. Before coming to Australia, she has published two novels in Indonesian language, Youth Adagio (2013) and Dante: The Faery and the Wizard (2014). Since then, she has continued publishing her short fiction works in New Writing, Meniscus, and TEXT as well as refereed articles in academic journals. 0aCreative writing. 0aEcocriticism.944023 0aLiterature and technology. 0aMass media and literature.966139 0aLiteraturexPhilosophy.966322 0aFeminism and literature.96632314aCreative Writing.24aEcocriticism.94402324aLiterature and Technology.24aFeminist Literary Theory.9663262 aSpringerLink (Online service)0 tSpringer Nature eBook08iPrinted edition:z978303136953708iPrinted edition:z9783031369551 0aPalgrave Studies in Life Writing,x2730-919396865740uhttps://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-36954-4 aZDB-2-LCM aZDB-2-SXL c59013d59013
