This class, rather collaboration, was basically a whole bunch of people getting together, running around the farmer's market, then running around with immersion blenders and scorching pans, putting tea kettles atop boiling potatoes, stealing spring onions from each other, wielding oyster knives for the first time, and the end result was a lovely, elegant (pescatarian!) meal. Here are descriptions of what we made. Note: Every ingredient with the exception of salt, pepper, and vinegar, was from the Hollywood Farmer's Market:

Hey All:

Okay, all the reading has now been posted to aaaarg for this week.  I looked over André Gunder Frank's letters to Arnold Harberger and Milton Friedman and they are amazing documents, which I think will enrich the discussion next week, so let's add those to the list along with the intro and first three chapters of Valdes' Pinochet's Economists.  And of course the March 28 Foucault lecture will also be fore next week.  A few more pages than last week, but reading that will move faster, I think.

For additional background reading, I've also added Naomi Klein's The Shock Doctrine to the aaaarg list, the appropriate sections of Chile of course.

 

See you on Sun,

 

Ken

Thanks Jon:

Hi,

If we are interested in transitioning into some discussions around game theory after our final session, this looks like it might be a good place to start:

The class "Greywater Systems" with Leigh Jerrard is set to begin next month. The class will be one-part classroom one-part backyard. We are looking for a volunteer to offer their home for the second meeting in exchange for your own Laundry-to-Landscape greywater system.

If you are interested in installing a greywater system in your home, let's talk!
