Alien Jazz, my first EP is finally here!

At the end of December 2020, I felt the need to create a musical project. One of my first. I went for several days, alone, to a yurt surrounded by llamas located in the south of Catalonia, Spain. I spent my days walking, cycling, practicing yoga and meditation. And my nights composing this album.

Our new collective Domingo Club is alive! We make fermented #food, #opensource tools and explore collaboration with natural processes to promote #understanding, #transparency, #resilience and #equity in our global food system.

We've increased our level of #tempeh making! Some explanation: we designed and 3D printed a tempeh mold, using food safe plastic (PETG), which we filled with half-ground soybeans and a fungus (rhizopus oligosporus) and let it grow in our custom-made incubator for ~30 hours. The result is this amazing, delicious, protein-packed tempeh <3

And I still like it :)

Am I really finishing the music album I thought I would finish in January? It looks like it.

I'm considering creating a #Mastodon account for the Domingo Club (https://domingoclub.com/) as I'd like to share more of our processes with you, and I really like all the questions that come up when I post something about #fermentation and #tools. Where (which #instance) would be a good place for us? Thank you :-)

New recipe in our online documentation: Tempeh!

We discovered and learned how to make tempeh two years ago when we lived in Amsterdam. Going vegan invited us to explore food in a way we had never done before. Tempeh is now part of our daily diet. Making it taught us a lot about fermentation and its benefits, helped us understand our environment, made us want to become more resilient, to make our own tools.

Back on track 🌞 #tempeh

Maintenance day: our incubator prototype needs a little attention as the heating system is becoming less and less consistent. Observe, measure, test. As part of what I also consider maintenance, I'll rewrite some of our cooking recipes and add them to our online documentation. #theWorkshop

The sourdough bread is in the oven, the chickpeas are soaking in water for this lunch hummus, the rice tempeh is in its marinade, I have hot coffee in my cup. Good morning to all!

@crickxson @colm @Ludi Hey, I'm writing an abstract for a article on distributed design and I'd like to quote the OSP open-source/cooking recipe metaphor. I remember an article you wrote about it but I can't find it now. Any pointers? Thanks!

Finally found a way to adjust the humidity level in our incubator, using ultrasonic atomization! I can't wait to start building our next prototype, putting all our new ideas and techniques together.

Trying to make another rice tempeh today, I'm not sure why I'm having trouble making it, hopefully today will be the day!

Unpacking our zigzag tempeh!
