Dear Shu Lea and worm composters,

Awesome, thanks for the update. So great to see how this project has
evolved!
I've been so swamped with work and one illness after another, I haven't
been able to truly participate in a more active way.

As just a spontaneous idea to maybe generate more interaction on site, I
was thinking it would be cool to offer compost tea to give/sell to
people at HKW--
like little glass or plastic containers (I could ask our lab) and labels
with "ingredients" of the microbes living in there and directions for use.

If any one thinks its a good idea and wants to help (no time to organize
that alone) we could get together next Sunday/Monday before the opening
to prepare materials and set-up.

snow angel greetings to all!
Alex

PS @ Shu Lea and Ayumi: I would really love to interview you both
(individually) about art and compost if you have some time during
Transmediale.
Please let me know!
