Remember when we were in the thick of Thick Energy? That was fun. Willow Thicket from Thick Energy. Today, I’d like to talk about a related form of energy: wide energy. Here’s some […]
Wide Energy, or Living in the Sky
The Power of Stone
It is good to state the obvious. Stones are hard. They are solid. This give them force. When enough of them get together, it gives them gravity, and a tension between […]
Binding Energy
Binding energy is powerful. A single leaf touches a rush, and holds to it. One by one, other leaves touch, and are held, each by a point of touch. Strands can be […]
How Water Works
A leaf falls in the water. It does not sink. We say it “floats,” but for the leaf below that’s not really it. It’s more like it is gripped by the surface […]

Unexplored Technology
The earth is a rotary engine. Pinegrass and Interior Douglas Fir Its electrodes are alive. Great Basin Giant Rye Here are the batteries. Siya? Let’s live. Cat Mint Let’s risk that.
Forget the Water for a Moment
Rain is a transfer of energy. It is a circulation and transformation of gravity. The water is incidental. After all, this is a gravitational planet. The water is just on the surface. […]
