Like making old things new again. Enjoy working on a far away big tree/cow farm vs inner city digital stuff and with the NBN that's changing, creative lifestyles and digital content businesses. I have 4 degrees in psychology, media, literature, librarianship, management and business including a business PhD that explored how tech created opportunities in the music sector (as a lead indicator to other content sectors). Am fascinated by how people use digital stuff and emerging uses. Slow living, reject unreal or fast lifestyles, I like to know all about what I eat. Maintaining a professional hatred and boycott of Farcebook. Confused about whether to write in 1st or 3rd person on this site. Love animals and have always had them around - cows, horses, chooks, cats, dogs, sheep, goats, camels, budgies. Met lots of snakes too. Enjoy aesthetic immersion and favourite era is 1940-1959. Music obsessive not impartial to late nights watching bands. blah blah blah

dome homes

igloo-like dome homes are interesting.  Won't rust, rot or attract termites. Also highly resistant to earthquakes and typhoons. The walls are treated with a flame retardant, emit no toxic fumes in a fire. Fast and cheap to make (why didn't the bushfire victims get them? - oh they're maybe not fireproof).  But I'm not sure about living in styrofoam.... and the fellow says they're cliched.
