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!
