  "map_content": "As far as the mud building goes, I love the idea and have watched many videos of people building them. I love how simple it is. I live in the UK and many of our oldest buildings are built of a wooden frame and wattle and daub in between - willow branches, straw and mud and animal dung. So over here we have a lot of 500-1000 year old buildings using this method. I love how it simplifies the building process, but also keeps the inside either warm or cool, depending on the weather. I also love how organic the buildings look and how it expands the possibilities as far as your imagination can go. Would love to hear more of your insights about it. How practical is it. How legal is it? How resilient, etc. Here\u2019s my local wattle and daub pub The Old Hall from the 1600s.",

  "map_content": "I feel good to be talking to you, as someone who knows more about treechat than me because even though I\u2019m not part of crypto (except for learning about it) I hold great promise for it and that\u2019s partly why I\u2019m here. This feels like the right place to learn more and take part so thanks.\u00a0\u00a0I relate to the idea of valuing information and communication which ties into being heard and understood and this conversation we are having in this space shows great possibilities for all that.\u00a0\u00a0Thanks for sharing those pics and links to your pub, community and heritage. I am itching to meander off the first topic (treechat and earthen shelter) and say something on my mind that relates to those underground tunnels and those poem riddles but first I want to say that I see you already know so much. You know how durable these structures are and you know they are beautiful. You can feel the artisanship and craftsmanship in them. I\u2019m assuming you might have ancestral ties to those who participated in their creation.\u00a0\u00a0So you already know. I would like to guide you through the process of building a small scale model to rekindle your instincts, and re-familiarise\u00a0\u00a0yourself with the ingredients, recipes, methods and considerations for building in life size to bring you closer to your dream of building and sculpting a cosy little place to recharge in.\u00a0\u00a0I say rekindle and re familiarise because the knowledge is in our DNA awaiting to be awoken. When I first went to teach this at a preschool, during the intro, a little boy said he already knew this and I asked him who he learned it from and he said he taught himself and then I realised the same was true for me. We used to go down to the creek and make \u201cmud pies\u201d to dry on the rock without adult guidance and it was decades later that I found out what mud play really means and perhaps part of why children are instinctively drawn to it. Superior shelter creation!\u00a0\u00a0It starts with playing with some subsoil and water to make mud.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0You may know that the walls of the old \u201ccob\u201d homes in the Devon area are all earth with the white limestone render. Wood is only used for windows, doors, roof and furniture.\u00a0\u00a0To answer your question about practicality i would say that thinking small - as in, \u201cless is more,\u201d addresses that issue, as the delight of the \u201ccosiness factor\u201d depends on a small space.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0In terms of legitimacy - the word \u201cheritage\u201d says it all\u00a0and I have concluded that industry (especially in its modern form) is the wrong (relatively new) vehicle for satisfying our shelter needs, so you when looking for legitimacy you are better to start off with heritage and then go deeper down to instincts. In order to create cosy superior shelter in a way thatpleases the soul and nurtures and protects us from\u00a0abhorrent forms of adulteration, we need to follow the basic set of human values that we were born with, and which modern industry is at odds with. People naturally like to give to one another because it makes us feel good because at some level we see each other as a part of ourself, a part of our humanity and invoking this innate spirit of generosity is the key to creating shelter that delivers protection, security and freedom - it\u2019s real purpose.\u00a0 But industry sees us as consumers -something outside of itself to be preyed upon.\u00a0If you were to yell out, at the top of your lungs, \u201cPlanned obsolescence eat your heart out!!!!\u201d with a sarcastic evil toothy grin, in the moment when your new (expensive) house shows signs of falling apart already,\u00a0\u00a0while you are simultaneously realising that your rent or mortgage payments are too high, taking away too much of your time and energy, and your shelter payment funds are indirectly being used (via the legacy banking system) to fund activities such as war you don\u2019t believe in, then such an existential-angst-fuelled outburst would sum up where the voracious appetite of Industry is capable of taking us.\u00a0\u00a0But I guess it takes being here at this juncture to be able to value the contents of this conversation and so perfect timing eh?\u00a0 Please tell me more about what brought you here two years ago and where you see it going for you and tell me more about what you think of those tunnels under your town and what you think f the word \u201cdruids\u201d which are mentioned in the poems.",
