amazing! i have built for twenty five years, half of that with concrete. whoever has had contact with the material knows how quick it ruins your skin when accidentally exposed to it.
we were taught, it'd take three weeks to harden sufficiently, yet, the drying (and therefore evaporating) process is never complete, meaning, you're always exposed to the chemicals and dust to some degree.
please also mind, you are maneuvering a highly conductive organic spaceship aka body through this realm. all the steel reinforcement and plumbing in the walls, combined with wifi and cellular phone radiation does have interference with your own vibration. those who sleep outdoors away from the machinery know.
my grandfather used to hunt with the people of the massai tribe in tanzania/kenia and they are using building materials like wood, clay, sand AND cow dung. once they take off the roof, the rain dissolves a house such as these back into the mother earth, which, to me, feels very natural. also very permeable talking about humidity and air. modern homes are too sealed for my taste. take only the exchange of used an fresh air for instance. well, plants inside help, of course. they don't have heavy snowfalls like we do here in bavaria, but, the desert has very low temperatures, too, due to the radiation of warmth from the sandy terrain at night. being exposed to warmth from woodfire, as well as the fumes from certain woods (juniper for instance) is very beneficial to our health. sacred resins and their cleansing effect on the human body and spirit...
i have recently built a little rocket oven with willow mesh, clay, straw, sand and cow dung. the more often you fire it, the more solid.
i am posting a link to a very interesting project anyone with a bit of fantasy and love for the mother nature can copy to her or his needs.
hemp for insulation has been pushing through here. i hope, we can soon build with hempcrete, the house presented is highly inspiring.
have a happy new moon (with partial) solar eclipse and be safe.
love and light from the bavarian alps
ps: it seems worth to be mentioned the ancient roman architects and engineers had the opus cementitium formula, probably poured HOT and it still standing strong in many areas of the world in forms of aqueducts, foundations, walls, whole buildings. the planned obsolescence in the construction, automobile, electronics, health and pretty much any other sector which can be squeezed by the big and greedy corps seem to be a very typical phenomena for a dark age such as the current kali yuga. cannabis is a big relief.

I have been telling to the world the same things my whole life. Even at school when I was a child and for anyone else seemed the most normal to live inside cement boxes that they are toxic and dangerous (earthquakes or any problem and they collapse in your head).
"Teacher why our school is made of cement and looks so unhealthy to stay in?"
"Why roads are made of radioactive asphalt?"
"Why everything is wrapped in plastic?"
"Why we have male and female toilet instead of sit / not sit?"
"Why I cannot smoke?"
Why why why ... And you grow and nobody gives you credible answers
It took decades to begin to discover others who , with the same questions in mind were actually trying
And here we are. Maybe we do not get all answers is true, still we are searching.. but are those who are not searching anymore the stall of humanity
