hi, this project is about taking one potato, growing it
and when i have several potatos grown by myself
take at least one of them
and cook it in a solar cooker
i would also like to
tell the experience
through the internet
to make a small party
the project is called "Papas Solares" or, in English, "One Hot Potato"
meaning it's just one potato
and also referring to "hot potatos"
meaning those things nobody wants to be responsible for
but in this case I'd like to be responsible
for growing and cooking and eating one single potato
I'd like to do this with other people if possible
I'd like to do it with the people from a local initiative
a hackerspace (shared workshop)
where we might perhaps include other elements and not just the solar cooker
we might include a solar panel
to convert sunlight to electricity
to feed a computer
to let us take video of the event
and share it through the internet
other people may want to bring their own ingredients
i'll do one potato
but anyone can bring more potatos, meat, fish, eggs
groceries or whatever they want
if you want to get in touch I'm in twitter as @ImaCan (Spanish) or @lucasgonzalez (English)
and, remember, the date is June 21st 2014
the start of (northern hemisphere) Summer, and a Saturday
the goal is to have fun together
but of course before that we need to do quite a few things
we need to build prototypes of the solar cooker
there's a lot of information on the internet and books about how to build them
we need recipes
we need to know how to grow potatoes
(I'm a urbanite and hence clueless)
and we'll have to get things done if we want to be there on June 21st
maybe other people will do other projects or more people will join in
or maybe we'll do it alone, but it doesn't matter
each of us does what they can do
greetings and thanks for your time
see you next time!
