I'm back again in Mazunte, where over the past few years I have been more and more involved with a theater group who are just as enthusiastic about natural building. This year we'll be finishing the roof of the storage building we started last year.
On my arrival I was greeted with some good news: the re-discovery of the promotional video for the main theater building! Its story is a rather typical one: The building was designed by a talented architect, who's also a good friend of ours from the Earthship Academy, I mentioned here. She did it as her final project together with Mike Reynolds, so it even bears the official Earthship Biotechture label. Unfortunately, my friends' limited funds were not enough to organize the main build right away. Instead, they hired a professional designer to make a highly impressive video, intended for the crowdfunding campaign, somewhere down the road... and subsequently lost it!!!
The designer created a special YouTube link which could not be searched, only accessed if you knew it. We shared it with each other, but eventually (last year) we reached a point where no one could remember the link, nor had it saved anywhere... until now.
Reason enough to download and save it as a file on my drive, and more importantly, share it on the blockchain. So here it is, the building we hope to create in the foreseeable future, corresponding with this post.

Na és ez a telep ténleg létezik?
Létezni létezik, csak éppen nem ez az. :-) A sok természet az épület körül nem pontosan úgy néz ki. Van itt egy falu is! Szerencsére nem túl nagy, turistákkal együtt nincs ezer fő.
Tő jo! Mind a paradicsom! Biztos is csajok is vannak!
Hogyne, méghozzá a legjobbak.
👍🌈
Ja, mondhattam volna: ebben a klipben látható hogy néz ki a környék tényleg, mégpedig föntről magasból. Ha még nem láttad, nagyon javaslom.
Sajnos nem lehet látni semmit, mert unsupported.
Na most próbáld megnézni. Szerintem éppen akkor települtek át máshova. Én sem tudtam megnyitni, de most már működik.
ja tök jo, szoval az oszlopokat becsavartatok müanyagal? A rohadas ellen? Szerinted belülröl nem rohad?
En oljant nem csinaltam, csak befestettem lenolajal.
A csaj is jol nez ki föntröl, biztos alulrol meg jobben nezne ki!
Nem csavartuk be őket, csak fölűröl fedtük le őket, hogy az eső ne érje annyira, de lentről szelőzhessen. Persze, befesteni kell, de tavaly még zöldek voltak a gerendák, kellett hogy száradjanak. A festést csak most csináljuk, de itt a lenolaj nem tartana sokáig. Az itteni éghajlathoz kémia kell... sajnos.
Lenolaj mindenhol kaphato, es az a legjobb!
Dear @stortebeker
That great feeling you must have feel been back again in Mazunte will certainly be a great one
Yours, Piotr
Hahahaha, you don't know how right you are! And that's true in spite of the sunburn, the mosquito bites, and the slight hangover, that's the part of the experience every time I return.
