[Adoptacomposter] meeting

[valentina karga]

Dear everyone,

I am sorry I didn't speak all this time. I am very busy this period. I am going today to take my worms out of the bag and add bedding.
If anyone was planning to come by, hopefully we will meet.
Around 12.00..

Greetings,
Valentina

>> Hallo alle!
>> Sorry I kept myself in a non-interacting way because I was travelling but followed the conversations.
>> Im on my way to the compost castle and what I did before I left was building a carton box placing a t-shirt on the bottom filled with
>> the composting matters -- I left the box half open at the top and sort of half covered it with the almost empty bag of the soil we all got.
>> Im now going to check what happened.
>> About keeping updated the page on the site well...I could only place an Avatar but no pictures and no text..Still fighting to understand how.
>> 
>> What I mostly love is to see how passionate the discussion is and I personally see it totally organic to the process of our composting journey...Composting food,thoughts,emotions and related mutations including environmental accidents.
>> Our daily feeding and related thoughts, misunderstandings (including tongue-like mistakes) but also achievements almost remind me of the myth of Babilonia (a dream and a nightmare at the same time).
>> I guess this reflections are exactely what I should post on the web site...But while fighting to make it happen Ill just communicate directely to you dears companions.
>> 
>> P.S
>> I dont know who is updating the website relating to the credits page where our names as adoptors are displayed (http://www.compostingthecity.mobi/berlin/html/credits.html)...I wrote to Shu Lea Cheang to ask to link my name to my projectspace but I see nothing changed.
>> So...If any of you is doing that please link my name to www.liebig12.wordpress.com (it is actually my artist studio that works as a projectspace too and if by the way anyone as ideas or projects to present please visit me or write me!***it is in FrankfurterTor***and open to host almost any idea).

>> I wish u a beautiful day.

>> Oggetto: [Adoptacomposter] meeting
>> 
>> Hello all,
>> 
>> just looked at the doodle and realized that most people could meet on Tuesday (yesterday). Did that happen?
>> I was sick yesterday, unfortunately, and am still recovering. It would be great if someone else took the lead on our plans to meet.
>> 
>> Also, Gaby informed me yesterday that the worm house and area around it is pretty trashed - litter everywhere, smell of urine, and flies and wasps swarming around the bins.
>> This is the reality of Kreuzberg - if there is little activity and "social control" around a project, it literally gets "composted" by the circumstances of the city.
>> 
>> I realize we're all super busy people, most of us with very little experience vermicomposting, but for this project to survive, I do think that a regular meeting (say once a month?) or at the very least one initial meeting where everyone (including more silent members and rudi, the worming expert) get together and exchange practicle knowledge about care & feeding, bedding insulation, and eventually design.
>> 
>> suggestions much appreciated!
>> best, Alex
