Hello Lara, Irati and Yazan!

I just created this page to collect information that could be cool to share and accumulate. This hotglue works like a blackboard where you can embed youtube videos or type text. On the left the basic instructions...very easy!

Here there is a basic tutorial, just in case:
https://hotglue.me/how

First exchange of video material:

Yazan's video of his father cooking:
- He cooks
- He talks about politics

Irati's video of her mother pealing vegetable:
- She silently prepares the cardo

Irati's video shooting Gerard cooking:
- They talk about processes
- He cooks

Gerard video about the milking machine:
- Tracing the origin of food
- Nature as a quantifiable economical resource

Lara's idea of collecting undone projects or unfinished projects.
Recipe Book:

What makes a recipe book a recipe book?

- The outcome is always different
- Instructions: A processs that can be repeated
- It is always an improvisation
- It is an archive
- Taste/Texture/Smell: precisely what you don't get in a recipe book.


We try to avoid:
A Gastronomic/Cuisine approach for a recipe book.
Gastronomy as something perverse that obeys to market demands (at least in Donostia)

The recipe book it's just a pretext to bring subjects, a container.

How to Disappear by Haitham Alwardani
Pine trees in Palestine:

[...]
the fires in Israel’s forests cannot be read in the typical apolitical understanding of natural disasters (the further question being, do ‘natural’ disasters still happen anywhere?), but rather through the prism of Palestine’s political history.
Nation—State
Nature—State
Work on the idea of Invasive Species
Autochton vs. Alien species

Invasive Species in the Basque Country: American Crabs, Asian wasps, Northern Red Oak, etc.

Right-wing fascist groups defending the protection of Iberian Wolf and Bear: Hispania Verde

Nature as a representative of the Land and..
The Land as the fundational origin/root of the idea of Nation.

Religious understanding of the land and its relation to the subject that belongs to it.
