 Tina: The context in my earlier days (being with Time's Up) gave me the opportunity to develop a broad spectrum of interests. One of them, amongst others, has been into migration and nomadism of all sorts, triggering smaller and bigger social changes and impacts. I have been aware and interested in the formation of "the raft", slowly growing and turning into floating villages, populated with all kinds of people with different educational and cultural backgrounds, developing new and alternate ways of living, working, researching, creating together. Tina: The context in my earlier days (being with Time's Up) gave me the opportunity to develop a broad spectrum of interests.

-The moment the first Ark was about to leave I decided to join. Credible rumors said, that the "ark-society", due to rather dense living conditions (minimal space) developed methods and strategies of conflict-management, which allow a notable reduction of escalations amongst the inhabitants. A highly attempting reason to go there. +The moment the first Ark was about to leave I decided to join. Credible rumors said, that the "ark-society", due to rather dense living conditions (minimal space) developed methods and strategies of conflict-management, which allow a notable reduction of escalations amongst the inhabitants. A highly attempting reason to go there. I met Valentina in my very first days, spent (and still spend) long hours with her, to get introduced in several methods, met others around her, investigating further.
  
 Shortly after I arrived at the Ark, I developed an - to my own surprise - interest in food-supply which was/is a big issue at the Ark, due to restricted space and resources. There was a growing group of mixed experts and non-experts, all trying mutually facing and solving "food-concerns" at the Ark. Botanists, chefs, "plant-whisperers", everyday-life gardeners, food-chemists and scientists, "herb-witches", biologists,.. all of them work together in food-creation, food-processing and delivery.  Shortly after I arrived at the Ark, I developed an - to my own surprise - interest in food-supply which was/is a big issue at the Ark, due to restricted space and resources.

Research being documented to manipulate without destroying the natural structure of seeds disappeared.+Due to the recent glitch we lost a huge amount of both, our knowledge and stock of seeds.

 Apart from finding people who help regaining this knowledge I'm also here at this cocktail party to find people helping our chefs to collect ideas for dishes mainly consisting of our momentary staples, being loads of algae and mushrooms, tiny pumpkins and rice-extract which through heat gains its known texture and form. We still have a varied stock of herbal and spice essences left.  Apart from finding people who help regaining this knowledge I'm also here at this cocktail party to find people helping our chefs to collect ideas for dishes mainly consisting of our momentary staples, being loads of algae and mushrooms, tiny pumpkins and rice-extract which through heat gains its known texture and form.

-Alkan: A schizophrenic gonzo journalist with manic-depressive tendencies, Alkan came to the Ark hoping to regenerate his career through a dramatic scoop on the third culture, which he attempts to investigate through interviews with the Ark's crew and prospective recruits. Due to insider contacts, he somehow managed to scrape his way into workiing for the Ark's newspaper on the slimmest demonstration of actual ability. However, an intrinsic lack of social graces and complete inability to communicate with other humans, coupled with a near-total obliviousness to his surroundings, renders his journalistic aspirations problematic to say the least. Mired in perpetual doubt, he constantly seeks verification of what he's just heard, and is often found asking the same question up to twenty times in a row, subsequently attempting to cross-check the same number of times by bringing one or more others into the conversation and generally confusing everything in the process.+Alkan: A schizophrenic gonzo journalist with manic-depressive tendencies, Alkan came to the Ark hoping to regenerate his career through a dramatic scoop on the third culture, which he attempts to investigate through interviews with the Ark's crew and prospective recruits.
