EXDL ONgoing research

The great people who has worked and are working with me in Experience Design Lab and myself has been collecting masses of information through the years and we will try to make a lot of this available over time here in this site. Personally I “stumble over” so much exiting material everyday and I think it would be great to share it and also really like to remember it myself too. So this part of the EXDL site should be seen as a place where you can find inspirational information primarily relating to the COMMITMENTS Program topics (the initial first 5 topics are relating to this program and there will very soon be more material about all of this).

This is a very simple way of collecting materials and making the information / inspiration available. Obviously in the near future there will be a better system but thats all a matter of some peoples time and obviously also money. For now it would be great if you as a reader can come with hints, links or any kind of material in relation to the topics currently being investigated and here shared with the rest of all of you out there:

FASHION FUTURE

DESIGN LIFESTYLE

ENERGY FUTURE

CITY FUTURE

Have a look at WORLDBY here at Actics.

FOOD FUTURE

Fuel for cooking is a big issue all over the less developed world. Having started myself at MMM to cook on my wood-stove there i have realized that there are hidden posibilities - look here fx.

Please go to this site if you want to know more about this project http://www.ashdenawards.org/

Solar cooking

Here you will find more about how to cook using solar

Flints Cooking

As part of my own personal research in life I cook - and its fantastic what you can get out of literally nothing if you use your imagination. In the coming months you will here find inspiration to cook in the ultimate sustainable ways but with a maximum focus on the hedonistic aspects. Its divine, yet super simple and dirt cheap cooking using weed, roots, probably insects and worms and using solar cookers, wood burners, biogas etc. There will be a lot more coming in the near future.

MICRO MACRO MONDE CAMP / temporarily structures

We are currently investigating where to find the most eco conscious - primarily and initially - tent solutions for the MMM Camp in France. Here are some links to what has been found till now. If anyone out there has suggestions please contact me here.

We will initially start with tents that we get manufactured in India from organically grown cotton canvas. But here we show some of the links to interesting sites found so far:

The Flush and Forget Culture

In relation to new courses and also in relation to the development of the MMM Camp (see above) Im looking for new toilet systems. This is a couple of links to some interesting stuff. Also look at the chapter of same name - click here.

Here is a no-water no-chemicals but using electricity system. Looks really smart and is one of the solutions we will try at MMM. If anyone has experience with this system please contact here

By clicking at the image you get to the site form where you can buy the toilet.

More research and information will be available here in the future on fx.

Paper or cellulose based products

New materials in general

Water issues

Alternative service solutions

The hedonistic department - obviously needs to be developed in relation to the MMM Le Spa

-spas in general

-various techniques for well being using natural oils, cremes etc.

There will in relation to this soon be a publication on Public Bathhouses which was developed years ago.
