For decades, the story of coastal risk has been dominated by climate change and rising seas. But a major new global study suggests that, for hundreds of millions of people living on river deltas – including those living in cities such as New Orleans and Bangkok – an even more immediate threat is unfolding beneath their feet.

RE: https://hachyderm.io/@jimgar/115943482230918867
Or maybe you want groovy with a slightly harder edge!?
Indonesian-Dutch band Nusantara Beat's debut LP came out in November. A groovy blend of psych, rock, and Indonesian folk.
https://nusantarabeat.bandcamp.com/album/nusantara-beat
“Nusantara means all the islands that make up Indonesia. It’s an old word from when the kings wanted to unite the whole archipelago. Today, it still means unity, many cultures coming together as one. So, when we say Nusantara Beat, we mean the rhythm and music from the Indonesian archipelago, mixed into one sound.”

Indonesia’s delayed new capital risks ‘white elephant’ status

Ha! This is interesting. What it's basically saying is that Malay lost the word for earthquake (which is still extant in other Austronesian language cousins eg Indonesian languages for example, like Javanese) that we had to re-import it from Sanskrit because we have so few of it 😅

Bukhoor achieved! The Turkish censer was too fiddly even with the chain, or rather I don't have the cultural memory on how to handle it well, so went with what's probably a family heirloom at this point, a Malay-style one. The big one is where the whole charcoal and incense/oud goes in, the smaller one is where you store the resins, oud, or incense. The tray is also heavy. Pretty sure the whole thing is bronze but I'm just guessing.
Anyway unlocked family lore on how one of my Arab aunts uses them in the mornings.

Speaking of local MVs though, I'm so gutted that this song is under 3 mins long??? It's got everything I love - pop-rap fusion but with local popular music genre, killer dance moves and a nusantara setting (though in recent years I'm noticing there's been more and more of this). Oh, and incorporating the Malaysian Sign Language!

Who built the seven gates of Thebes?
The books are filled with names of kings.
Was it the kings who hauled the craggy blocks of stone?
And Babylon, so many times destroyed.
Who built the city up each time?

#Jakarta versinkt im Meer, während #Indonesien seine Hauptstadt nach #Nusantara verlegt. Der milliardenschwere Umzug auf die Insel #Borneo soll eine moderne, nachhaltige Smart-City schaffen, doch viele der elf Millionen Einwohner*innen Jakartas bleiben zurück. Besonders betroffen sind die Ärmsten, die weiterhin unter #Überschwemmungen und absinkendem Boden leiden. Der Umzug löst kaum die Probleme der alten Hauptstadt.

Indonesia’s new capital city, Nusantara, will have a railless autonomous train. Apparently the official industry term is Autonomous Rail Rapid Transit. They call it autonomous rail transit even when it doesn’t run on rails.
I think the term they’re looking for is long bus. It’s a long bus, people, because it’s a multi carriage transport that runs on roads, not rail.

A toll road is being built as part of the development of Indonesia’s new capital city, #Nusantara, here in East Kalimantan province on the island of Borneo.
But experts warn that the #road threatens the integrity of a protected riverside forest and the coastal mangroves and marine ecosystem that it borders.

Actually did buy the expensive handmade watercolours after all, and in part because I'm intrigued by the heavily waxed cotton batik cloth the seller used as packaging. Intrigued because I've seen those (western hobbyist) recipes before, and I could see the resulting material is a reflection on the fragility of cultural knowledge transfer. This is related to colonialism, sure, but this is more directly a consequence of the industrial age. It's amazing something as integral to human civilization as textiles is now considered the arcane arts because so much of it is taken up by manufacturing.
Anyway, here's the result of some light, janky (ie not with the appropriate tools) calendering (or gerus in Malay). It's one of the final steps to finishing a cloth, and sort of a sister process to fulling (as cellulose fibres like cotton cannot be felted to even up the weave, like wool/protein fibres can).

There's a new(ish) video up on Austronesian languages - https://youtu.be/TAa9sT3qxaU - and this comment is such a callout for our people being too online lmao
(Context: for some reason, the word for 'five' is pretty consistently lima/ima/limo/imo across the languages in the family group)
ETA: the video also looks pretty interesting! I'll watch in a bit

On the 'How did I get roped into this' side of things, I finally got around to beginning work on writing copy for the upcoming exhibition in September. My bit is honestly the least amount of work and running around, but unfortunately the copy is for the display so it's also the most visible. No pressure.
