JUST ADD WATER


This commission was supported by University of Plymouth’s Sustainable Earth Institute Creative Associate Programme (2021).

Building with rammed earth, cob, is an ancient craft familiar to southwest England and northern France, where it is known as bauge. A joint project, CobBauge, between the University of Plymouth and Université Caen-Normandie (UCn) was intended to improve this earthy technique so that it could pass modern building regulations, opening the way for wider use. It was in this context that I made Just Add Water.

Just Add Water began with the main ingredients of cob building.

Combining photogrammetry, the reinterpretation of scientific data produced by the CobBauge team during their reseach, along with an original soundtrack, the video took a poetic look at the process and potential future of cob.
