One Hot Potato

  • 0:00 - 0:08
    hi, this project is about taking one potato, growing it
  • 0:08 - 0:14
    and when i have several potatos grown by myself
  • 0:14 - 0:15
    take at least one of them
  • 0:15 - 0:20
    and cook it in a solar cooker
  • 0:20 - 0:22
    i would also like to
  • 0:22 - 0:24
    tell the experience
  • 0:24 - 0:26
    through the internet
  • 0:26 - 0:29
    to make a small party
  • 0:29 - 0:35
    the project is called "Papas Solares" or, in English, "One Hot Potato"
  • 0:35 - 0:39
    meaning it's just one potato
  • 0:39 - 0:43
    and also referring to "hot potatos"
  • 0:43 - 0:47
    meaning those things nobody wants to be responsible for
  • 0:47 - 0:51
    but in this case I'd like to be responsible
  • 0:51 - 0:57
    for growing and cooking and eating one single potato
  • 0:57 - 1:00
    I'd like to do this with other people if possible
  • 1:00 - 1:05
    I'd like to do it with the people from a local initiative
  • 1:05 - 1:08
    a hackerspace (shared workshop)
  • 1:08 - 1:12
    where we might perhaps include other elements and not just the solar cooker
  • 1:12 - 1:17
    we might include a solar panel
  • 1:17 - 1:22
    to convert sunlight to electricity
  • 1:22 - 1:24
    to feed a computer
  • 1:24 - 1:28
    to let us take video of the event
  • 1:28 - 1:30
    and share it through the internet
  • 1:30 - 1:33
    other people may want to bring their own ingredients
  • 1:33 - 1:35
    i'll do one potato
  • 1:35 - 1:40
    but anyone can bring more potatos, meat, fish, eggs
  • 1:40 - 1:43
    groceries or whatever they want
  • 1:43 - 1:49
    if you want to get in touch I'm in twitter as @ImaCan (Spanish) or @lucasgonzalez (English)
  • 1:49 - 1:56
    and, remember, the date is June 21st 2014
  • 1:56 - 2:01
    the start of (northern hemisphere) Summer, and a Saturday
  • 2:01 - 2:06
    the goal is to have fun together
  • 2:06 - 2:09
    but of course before that we need to do quite a few things
  • 2:09 - 2:13
    we need to build prototypes of the solar cooker
  • 2:13 - 2:18
    there's a lot of information on the internet and books about how to build them
  • 2:18 - 2:20
    we need recipes
  • 2:20 - 2:21
    we need to know how to grow potatoes
  • 2:21 - 2:25
    (I'm a urbanite and hence clueless)
  • 2:25 - 2:33
    and we'll have to get things done if we want to be there on June 21st
  • 2:33 - 2:36
    maybe other people will do other projects or more people will join in
  • 2:36 - 2:40
    or maybe we'll do it alone, but it doesn't matter
  • 2:40 - 2:46
    each of us does what they can do
  • 2:46 - 2:47
    greetings and thanks for your time
  • 2:47 - 2:50
    see you next time!
