One of my objectives this year was to improve my know-how skills through making experiments. I also wanted to see how including making in my daily schedule would impact my concentration during mind-centered activities.

After being involved in the P2P Food Lab project as a Subsidies Proposal Writing Assistant, and developing some DIY bio-sourced electronics to monitor a garden, the next logical step is to… garden

Here is the page dedicated to the small garden I started on FoAM's balcony.

Everytime I walk through Brussels, I stumble on hundreds of kilos of not-that-waste materials. Rather than buying new materials, I will try to make the most of this existing resource to make objects.

I identified some sources of not-so-waste materials, dismantled some pallets, cooked, and folded some origami envelopes. Then, I mixed up making and research to build up supercapacitorsm, microbial fuel cells, cook materials or grow kombucha, and more.

I invested some time into cooking this year. Here are some recipes.

Vegetable curry with rice

Sweet and Sour Vegetables with Semolina

Calliflower, Carrots and Parsnip Curry with Rice

I prepared Tomatillo's chutney out of green tomatillos which were kindly offered to me by Annemie after a day spent working in her rooftop garden.

Being an absolute fan of cramique, the famous raisins-containing Belgian brioche, I decided I would try to cook it myself.
