Clay the base material of traditional architecture

Examine tradition and see how it’s working

Excavate tradition and see it engaging

Interpret tradition and make sure it’s moving

Interrupt tradition and make sure it’s flowing

 

There are twelve ways to stack an Olla Chata

Intervene with tradition and see who it’s serving

Interfere with tradition to unearth it’s meaning 

 

Suspend tradition and see it impeding  

Untangle tradition and find the blessing

Cultivate tradition and observe it supporting

 

There are twelve ways to stack an Olla Chata

Examine performance, abundance and distribution

Examine mobility, utility, and generosity that create equality

Examine the communal practices that create a collective of prosperity
