Abstract
Float Like a Butterfly: Sting Like a Bee charts the historically complex interspecies relationship developed over millennia between Human and Bee societies and traces the ever shifting metaphors of governance and social organisation that the Bee colony has provided. The paper examines the intertwined trajectories of the Bee and the Chemical industry in their parallel roles in Agriculture and Warfare and concludes with an illustration of the Author's personal engagement with the hive-mind in his efforts toward the co-creation of artworks.
