ok 4/29/13

Ok lets forget everything that you know… we were on a boat we were traveling the atlantic, we were on our way back from south america were we did a research on brazil, a research about the favelas, the reason we were on a boat is unknown it's just like a dream, but one day our instruments went out of control no body knew how or why, so we lost our sense of direction, and ended landing on a beautiful shore a place we thought was on the caribean but we are not certain, were we land there is civilisation, but not the civilisation that we knew, turns out that we landed in a piece of land that was never discovered because the currents do not lead to this part of the world, the people of this land are like normal people, like us they speak english and spanish but they do not believe in any of the religions we know, they welcome us and are really excited about our arrival, looks like they were waiting for us, the leader of these people walks to us and says welcome in a very weird accent none of us have heard before, then he proceeds to take us to his house in the centre of their village, the people is happy to see us, everybody is polite and quite civilised, they are wearing what seems to be clothes form the XVI century, but their constructions look much older, some people wear shoes, some people don't, and seems that everyone speaks both spanish and english fluently and they write too, when we went to the leaders house he told us the story about to ship wrecks that happened many many years ago around the year 1747, one boat was a spaniard boat as they said and the other boat was from the english royalty, both boats were completely lost but most of the men survived, so when the people saved the lives of the spaniards and english they also showed respect and fascination about the new people, turns out that in these boats were traveling wealthy people both from each of their nations, very educated people, not vandals or pirates, so those people thought to the natives to speak english and spanish with out mixing, they thought them to respect the languages and to respect life as well.

this part of the world seemed to be missed by the explorers, ok now imagine that in our boat we were traveling with artists and designers, all of us we know the best technics of production, and we all love to design for the best of the communities, thing that has been very difficult in a world that runs on money, but here we have a chance to brake all the rules of our culture and have a fresh start and reinvent everything, because as this land was never really discovered is a virgin land a virgin society, they are not corrupt they do  not know about stealing and lying, because the people that educated them were nice people and they agreed to never teach them the worst part of our society, the only thing that seems to be a little bit weird is that they have no advanced technology, they learn everything that the spaniards and the english people show them and they saw everything as perfect and never thought about improving or new technologies, so this is a clean place on earth there is no waste, no pollution, no overproduction, and a lot of sense to life, every one is willing to help and to learn, so we are preparing our selfs to show them the XXI century, but the problem is that there is no electricity and our boat has no fix for that, so we have the task to reinvent everything that we know will be very useful for the people but with out electricity or electronics, we have to find a new way to design, we have the chance to reinvent technology, 
they don't have cheap plastics, that pollute, but there is a resin that comes from a tree that is just like plastic, so we invent a machine that is like a 3d printer, we mixed the idea of the the machine to create fabrics (telar), we are using the same concept of working by hand, but to create objects, with the very precision of the telar and the patience of the people is amazing, they have no rush for anything, they take their time and respect others some how they know that to learn they have to be very careful so they learn very well.
we are using their old techniques to create things of our era, first we are focusing on building our shelters, or houses, but they are very respectful and grateful with nature and they say that we have to take all that the earth and the sky gives us, like the rain, and the sun, the night and the day, they have studied every thing and every face of the day and the night, they don't let anything go to waste, they even build thinking on the position of the earth according to the sun and the stars, we can not understand this yet, but we are trying to learn like them.
So our shelters we have to build from the ground to the top, we are doing first the services for water that has been used apart from our production of shit and urine, turns out that to wash there is no need for soaps or any other contaminant,
