“The ancient author Homer who lived approximately 2800 years ago said that there was a food so good that if you ate it in a foreign land you would forget your homeland. That food is the hackberry. It is a wild edible that grows on every continent excluding Antarctica. Is it as good as legend suggests?” |

Bought a cement factory, turned it into an enchanted palace…

Date: November 20, 2022
“When architect Ricardo Bofill discovered an abandoned cement factory outside Barcelona, he was inspired to give the place a new life. After two years of work he turned 30 silos, 4,000 meters of underground galleries, and a 105-meter smokestack into his home and the offices of his Taller de Arquitectura (notable works include Les Halles and the Christian Dior headquarters in Paris, Shisheido building Tokyo, JP Morgan skyscraper Chicago and the Shangri-La Hotel Beijing). The transformation of factory to home office was a process of destruction. Destroying 22 of the 30 silos, Bofill searched for hidden forms in the abandoned buildings. The process was “like a work of sculpture in concrete.” Today, “La Fabrica” (The Factory) is a monument to adaptive reuse, a castle of Brutalist architecture, and enduring proof that Bofill could turn “the ugliest thing” into something beautiful. The silos, which once held concrete, now house architects and overnight guests. Underground passageways, now daylighted with huge skylights, connect a labyrinth of laboratories (including one for 3D modeling), archive space, and even an employee kitchen. The most spectacular space is “La Catedral” (The Cathedral) which earns its name with its 10-meter-high ceilings and concrete relics from its industrial past. It’s now used for meetings, exhibitions, and concerts. Bofill’s own home sits above La Catedral with its own impressive, high-ceilinged space called “Sala Cúbica” (“cubed hall”). The work is vivid proof of the idea that function can follow form. “Many people say that something has to look like what it does and it’s not necessary,” explains Jean-Pierre Carniaux, partner at Taller de Arquitectura for 4 decades. “You know instead of being full of gravel it’s full of architects.” |

I don’t know much about earth batteries…I am aware they’ve been around for a very, very long time. They don’t generate a lot of energy, but it might still be worthwhile for something. |

Arctic Homestead: 10 years living off the Alaskan wilderness…
|
||
| …. |
Date: October 23, 2022
“Jenna and David Jonas have spent most of their lives living off the land. At 17, David built a cabin in the woods of Vermont without power tools and lived there for two years, learning to track animals, identify trees, plants and birds, and to navigate. He’d paddled thousands of miles in hand-built birch bark canoes and lived for months off wild foods alone when he met his neighbor Jenna (she lived across the creek from his cabin in a “treehouse” dwelling), who’d been exploring the interior of Alaska for few years by boat, ski, dogsled, bike, and foot. In 2012, they found an ad on Craigslist for private land surrounded by state forest on a bluff above the Tanana River. They saw the potential for year-round food sources and bought the raw land, first living in a wall-tent. After two years on the land, they spent 3 weeks building a more permanent earthlodge: digging deep into the hill to take advantage of the relative warmth of the earth, using plentiful spruce trunks to line the home, covering it in sod for insulation and facing it due south for passive solar gain. Two years later, they began building a traditional log cabin using hand tools (such as a gin pole for a crane). It took them 3 years to complete (building only before freeze-up), but was ready in time for the arrival of their daughter. The couple hunt, forage or grow most all of their food. They built a smokehouse to cure the meat and fish, and an underground root cellar to preserve their produce and potatoes throughout the year. In 2014, they began to share their experience with others, using their experience as wilderness guides, they offer stays in their original earthlodge (the Sun Lodge) or in traditional handmade canvas wall tents for days of dog sledding, aurora viewing, winter camping, ice fishing, snowshoeing, skiing and crafting (making your own wooden spoons). Their goal is to offer guests at their hand-built wilderness homestead “a deeper, more authentic experience of Alaska, one that is not centered solely on sublime landscapes and plastic accouterments, but rather the real products, people, and lifeways that make our lives in the north rich and meaningful.” Alaska Homestead Adventures |

Why Was Baking The Most Deadly Job In The Victorian Era?…
|

Date: October 20, 2022
“Four 21st-century bakers bake their way through the era that gave us modern baking as we know it – the reign of Queen Victoria. Experts Alex Langlands and Annie Gray join them to tell the incredible story of our daily bread. The bakers have left the rural bake house and the golden age of baking behind, this time it’s the 1870s and they’re moving into an urban bakery in the midst of the Industrial Revolution. Their new bakery is totally authentic and it boasts two coal-fired ovens. At this time it is coal that fuels Britain’s epic industrial expansion and bread that feeds its ever-expanding urban workforce. A growing middle class start demanding ‘fancy breads’ for breakfast and so the bakers must now bake through the night.” |

“Jack heads to Turin to do battle with Northern Italian traffic in one of the most hotly anticipated new cars of the year – except it isn’t really a car at all. The latest creation of the inventor of the folding kick scooter, the Microlino is half microcar, half fashion statement on wheels, and one of the most joyous vehicles we’ve ever featured on the channel. Think cars are getting too big and too serious? Take a look at this. 00:00 Ciao! |
