Just before 10 a.m., on a sunny Thursday in late April, Kehau Reeves was hanging out at her usual spot, near a picnic table at Kewalo Basin Park.
An affable 44-year-old with her hair neatly tied in a ponytail, Reeves is one of the park’s regulars — for more than a year, she’s been camping out here in a small tent. To bring a semblance of normalcy to her life, she keeps her area clean and organized. She has her belongings tidily folded and arranged around her tent and on benches. When a nearby public restroom gets messy, she cleans it up. This way, Reeves can endure the vagaries of living hand to mouth. In recent years, city and state officials have been trying to ramp up a program aimed at identifying chronically homeless people like Reeves and getting them quickly into permanent, supportive housing.
But, despite an infusion this year of more than $4 million in city and state funds into the program, Oahu’s homeless population is still growing.

The design brief for a good quality shelter and base for living has changed. The Mobile Hexahome will be our first prototype house, and is still very much a work in progress. If you want to keep up to date, please subscribe to our newsletter or check into this blog for updates. At present we are in the early stages of prototyping, we’re hoping to develop the prototype to a stage we can live in it during POC21 whilst living with other makers at a castle in France – life is hard ;).

This was our second year bringing a hexayurt to the temporal existence of Black Rock City in Nevada’s high altitude deserts.
Our first year found it to be a rousing success with only a few areas we felt the need to improve upon. This second year found us improving in most of those areas but a known downside was made glaringly obvious. All in all we intend to keep using the hexayurt until we are unable to tape it back together at which point we will investigate other options. The key issue we had last year was the interior was in a constant state of disarray. All of our clothing and costumes, let alone every other supply, were vacuum packed into bags and stuffed into either plastic or canvas bins. One of the nice features of the hexayurt is that it keeps the ambient temperature down compared to the outside world. Our power situation was much improved this year with the addition of nearly one hundred amp hours of sealed led acid battery capacity combined with sixty watts of solar.

After years of obsessing over the Burning Man festival on the internet for years I finally managed to make it to Black Rock City.
My partner and I decided that one of the creature comforts provided to us by modern society - solid walls - was something we were not willing to do without for ten days in the sometimes hostile environment of the playa. When I first thought about that thing in the desert back in 2005 it seemed as though the only way to comfortably make the journey would be via RV.
As I was never able to commit financially to such a wild endeavor the idea largely laid dormant until autumn 2011 when it rapidly became apparent that such a goal was feasible for 2012. We briefly kicked around the idea of renting an RV with some friends and then discovered what appears to be a perfect solution. The Toolbox « Relatively Prime. The mathematics that we all learn in school is great.
No, really, it is. How can anyone get through life without knowing how to add or subtract. Multiply or divide. Solve for an unknown or factor a polynomial. OK, you might be able to get through life without that last one, but the point still stands, the mathematics that we all learn in school is great.
