Notation Must Die: The Battle For How We Read Music

💾

What I drew vs. what they built

Can you spot all the differences between what I drew and what was built? There's one more that I didn't mention in the video see this link: https://thirtybyforty.com/drawn-vs-built

The Key to Better Drawings?

💾

Use more contrast. Red annotations are clear, hatches add depth, varying line weight/type delineates what's important.

How To Build A COB HOUSE | Introduction & Building Design

💾

In this tutorial series we will be learning step-by-step how to build a cob house from the foundation to the roof. Cob is a mixture of clay, sand, and straw that is hand-sculpted into elegant, strong, sustainable, and affordable structures.

In this episode we cover a basic overview of the building processes and also take a walkthrough of the building with the instructors.

Learning to build with local natural materials is one of the most rewarding activities you can participate in. Natural building encourages community building, allows us to reconnect to nature, creates a rewarding symbiotic relationship with our environment, encourages creative expression, and is overall a healing experience.

If you are interested in learning more about natural building or taking a future natural building workshop be sure to follow us on Instagram @naturalbuildings to keep up to date with our ongoing offerings and projects.

This cob workshop was taught by CruzinCobGlobal, an organization that hosts cob workshops all over the world.

Y vos, ¿qué soñas para Tucumán?

💾

Hace más de un año le hice por primera vez la pregunta a la primera entrevistada del ciclo de entrevistas “Panchilata” y desde ahí más de 30 personas la respondieron. A veces cuesta responderla, porque nos limitamos a soñar por todos los problemas que tenemos (como dije en el video, muchos económicos y políticos), pero lo que necesitamos es gente que se anime a responderla y a arremangarse las mangas en pos de ese sueño.

Ahora, y vos, ¿qué soñás para Tucumán?

This rock has a secret use for pottery

💾

Mica is a beautiful and useful silicate mineral that has been used for decorative and functional purposes all around the world for millenia. One use is to add it to clay to reduce thermal expansion, thereby making the pottery resistant to cracking with rapid temperature changes. This pottery can be safely used in the oven ir even of=ver direct flame.
