Now of course, throughout all this time we had also been #decluttering the kitchen, with a great deal of progress both in permaent removal/disposal but also of putting things that did need to be kept either away or at least collected together with similar items in an accessible, clear-sided and labelled box.
Somewhere in the lower #strata, my family member found the item I pictured in the first post of this story.
They looked at me with a raised eyebrow, so I explained that I had no idea what it was but I had tried using it for poking holes in various experiments whilst creating/developing/building/modifying items to help #mitigate all these major issues in recent years.
The thing is, unlike me, they knew EXACTLY what it was. The raised eyebrow was not a silent 'WTF is this?' but a 'Why on earth does my non-cooking relative have a #MeatTenderiser?'

The upshot is that, starting with my kitchen 'nerve-centre' and then spanning into other rooms over time, these various crises have resulted in what I call #strata.
The lowest strata is #DIY mask experiments and making. Above that is the first attempts at #HeatMitigation. Then there is #AirQuality mitigation, and then some blending of these in upper strata depending on access to materials or new approaches I can try without risking violating my #lease.
Except, of course, it turns out there is always a catch.

Dzień dobry w PIĄTEK ☕! Polecamy nowe wydanie "Faktu" i zapraszamy na Fakt.pl 🗞📱
For #TextureTuesday some more WIP snapshots of STRATA, a generative system I've been on/off working on since 2014 (in Clojure/TypeScript/Zig, originally for the cover design of HOLO magazine), loosely based on 1950s research/experiments by Barricelli, somewhat related to cellular automata and extended to use a different and much larger set of "reproduction/collision rules" for (often) more complex outcomes. It's a hard system to tweak and curate, but I'm still in love with the resulting structures/textures (reminiscent of thin section petrography), so I keep returning to it every now and then...
