[Strawbale] Cohabitat, The Movie. A story about building collective dream... in straw!

[Pawel Sroczynski <p.sroczynski@cohabitat...>]

Dear strawbale friends all over the world ;-)

I'm happy to share with you our youngest creation ;-) Together with rest of the CohabitatGroup
 wonderful team (big thanks to filmmaker Jacek Burban from 
http://www.flowmotion.pl) we've made a movie documenting extraordinary 
event:1st Polish Strawbale Gathering 2011 (thx Max V. Jansen for 
inspiration :). It was exciting time for us! Hope you will be able to 
feel some of it though movie shots ;-)

here it is:

We were building nanoHabitat v0.1alpha. An open-source small cabin. This project was a delicious fruit of the cooperation between CohabitatGroup and United Nations Development Programme.
 Together we started a program of implementing natural building 
techniques for resolving some social issues. Few young people from 
sociotherapy city center were working with us full time - how about 
creating job opportunities in naturalbuilding 'industry' for them ? :-) We find this idea really promising.

We used PICAS clay plasters for the inside finish. Even Michal Navratil 
visted us ;-)) Thank you Michal for your knowledge and sharing your love
 and passion to plasters.

We want to release building documentation for this cabin in early autumn, together with Cohabitat, The movie premiere.

Hope you will enjoy this stuff ;-)
Best regards from Poland! :-)

ps. here you will find some photos from the building site:
