Support Ecuador

2010-02-05T22:03:00.001Z

In 1964, Texaco (now Chevron), discovered oil in the remote northern region of the Ecuadorian Amazon, known as the "Oriente." The indigenous inhabitants of this pristine rainforest, including the Cofán, Siona, Secoya, Kichwa and Huaorani, lived traditional lifestyles largely untouched by modern civilization. The forests and rivers provided the physical and cultural subsistence base for their daily survival. They had little idea what to expect or how to prepare when oil workers moved into their backyard and founded the town of Lago Agrio, named for Texaco's birthplace of Sour Lake, Texas. The Ecuadorian government had similarly little idea what to expect; no one had ever successfully drilled for oil in the Amazon rainforest before. The government entrusted Texaco, a well-known U.S. company with more than a half-century's worth of experience, with employing modern oil practices and technology in the country's emerging oil patch. However, despite existing environmental laws, Texaco made deliberate, cost-cutting operational decisions that, for 28 years, resulted in an environmental catastrophe that experts have dubbed the "Rainforest Chernobyl."

Two of my favourite people in Music

2010-01-22T21:38:00.001Z

Sins and forgiveness, simplicity and clarity and above all beauty and purity. Arvo Pärt is such an inspiration I named my son after him.

via planet-mag.com

“You can kill people with sound. And if you can kill then you can… maybe there is also this sound which is something opposite of killing,” the gracious and mild-mannered Pärt says. “And the distance between these two points is very big. And you are free; you can choose. In art, everything is possible.”

Cooking with Nico: A little bowl of Tokyo

2009-11-17T13:30:00.004Z

A super-simple Japanese treat from studio manager/executive chef Nico today. You can get all the ingredients at most supermarkets -- but Nico of course prefers shopping locally at Ridley Road market.

You'll need:

- 1 ripe avocado (the Japanese refer to it as "forest tuna", Nico tells us)
- some (preferably organic) smoked trout/salmon slices ("dead," our vegetarian dev adds)
- a generous handful of rocket salad
- some finely chopped spring onions
- some brown sushi rice (or normal brown rice if you only have Tesco Metro at your disposal)
- packet miso soup or miso paste (optional)

Also optional: soy sauce and wasabi (keep them in the studio cupboard - Nico recommends writing your name on them with white-out. Not that anyone has attempted to snack on the wasabi. Not yet anyway.)

Fill a bowl with the rice, it's about the only thing you may need to pre-prepare at home. Top with the sliced avocado, (dead) trout, spring onions and rocket. Mix the wasabi and soy sauce and dip the goodies in as you go. Wash down with the miso soup, or maybe some sake if your office has more of a Mad Men bent.

By far the finest 2 minutes 20 to get stuck between my ears this year. Deep, weird and twitch inducing sounds from Hud(son) Mo(whakwe), straight out of Glasgow (what up with dat?) If this is the future I'm going to hang in there.
