  6. #1223 Albany F. Major - Report of the Committee on Ancient Earthworks and Fortified Enclosures, November 28th, 1920. Congress of Archaeological Societies, 1920.

  7. Apparently chaotic gardening that is actually quite intentional:

    We are digging the greywater channel deeper after adding a charcoal & rock base biofilter. This aims to reduce soil salting by minimizing water evaporation directly from the channel and forcing the water to be pulled *up* through the soil via the plant roots. Current seedlings in this basin are getting top water but when their roots can be expected to be slightly deeper they'll be left to only seek water from the saturated soil below. Initially I wanted to optimize for a proper floodplain but now I think intentionally incising the channel may be a strategy so long as matting roots can hold the bank against rains - we'll just have to see!

    The squash mostly killed off by frost was pruned back, and the volunteer plants are frequently cut back and their stems used for mulch - you can see the slight mulch layer being built from vegetation in this site. The squash is trying to put on baby leaves again but the weather has been erratic so I'm fine if it just decomposes in place and doesn't come back, another round of beans, squash, and corn has been planted nearby and if the weather is conducive to getting a head start on the season we will have much more to harvest this fall.

    The other side of the basin was seed blasted and is being mulched over with animal bedding and manure.

    For this season this basin holds mostly cover crops sown for animal feed or milling, but when we can afford to we will be starting a series of trees in this basin to establish more permanent cover. Ultimately this will do more to avoid soil salting and nutrient loss, but for now simply establishing roots and working on soil restoration is a good start, especially where we can get a useful yield and bring down the cost to raise our animals.

  21. Passages: Reflections on 2024
    All years are passages between what was and what is yet to come. Usually, the transitions are subtle and incremental, hardly noticeable. But certain events signal a major crossing into something new. 2024 was one of those times, a bridge between distinct phases of my life. This essay reflects on the year with selected photos that I made in 2024 (and one from an earlier year).

  22. It's been a very busy season here at the Ranch. Sometimes in this environment it can feel like seasons are reversed: while the Northern states of the US are experiencing slowdown, we are experiencing winter & shorter days in a different way. This is our season of motion, albeit in a quiet, inward kind of way. It is critical to make use of cool days and restful nights, before the winds of spring and the brutal heat of summer force us to take rest.

    With that being said, I've been sadly behind on updating this page. I hope to return soon to this online space with more pictures and in-depth musings about our work here, but for now I'll share just a few moments of work with you all.

    This past week we planted an abundance of olive tree cuttings, and are crossing our fingers that they will take root even in the cooler weather. We amended more soil with horse & human manure, fed the chickens quite well on abundant scraps, and are preparing to cull our aging flock this week to open coop space to a new family of birds in the spring. The cycles of life & death, of generation & decay are so beautifully evident when living this way.

    We are (finally) laying pipes for a legitimate greywater system: the grey water from the house will soon water nut trees we hope to plant soon, beans, squash, and whatever other companion food plants wish to grow.

    There is more, and I hope to come back and share it with you, along with some images very soon. Finding the time to sit at the computer with our growing family and wonderful guests has been difficult, but I know that it's valuable to share this adventure and so very much plan on being more present soon.

    How has this season of sacred inwardness felt for you? Are you able to take the space you need?

  25. watching the rehearsals to #earthworks and performers are amaaaaazing. ... and my sound, all spatialized and 46 speakers omgoddesses

    Great idea Daniel. Cloudy and rain here on the Oregon coast, albeit the clouds parted for several minutes in front of the moon last night. Impressively out of place.
    Wish I was at Newark Earthworks again this time. I was there in Oct. 2005 for lunar major.

  27. went for a walk with the new neighbor and said hi to the new #moon cycle ♥️ we discussed cruel #deforestation and heard #water move under the ice (it is minus 13) which reminded me of the sound of mangroves #earthworks

  28. #Berlin #earthworks I made the music and sound scapes with others to this beauttiful vision of Sergiu Matis and all the creatives included, go see it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  29. this is gonna be fire with hearts

    Berliners! Sergiu Matis is making a new work called #earthworks and I am doing the sound score! many poets, dancers, writers, live artists involved! try go see it 19-23 Dec 2024 Radialsystem

  30. If I were President, I'd put the armed forces and the young people to work repairing collapsing ecosystems.

    “The ultimate end to a growth economy is the same as an analogous growth: cancer. But for national economies, the victims are nature, soils, forests, people, water, and quality of life. There is one, and only one, solution, and we have almost no time to try it. We must turn all our resources to repairing the natural world, and train all our young people to help. They want to. We need to give them this last chance to create forests, soils, clean waters, clean energies, secure communities, stable regions, and to know how to do it from hands-on experience.”
