Karen Bahr completing 7 Questions before building Flock House model in the NYC Flock House<\/p><\/div>\n

Karen Bahr is a\u00a0court interpreter for Spanish. \u00a0She is also a member of Faerie Tones folk music band, an Acro Yoga teacher, and sells Faerie ear cuffs\u00a0on her Etsy site, Same Sky Wings<\/a><\/p>\n

This week she joined the Palimpsest project at the Flock House Omaha Project. On August 6th<\/strong> she will lead a Yoga Circle Ceremony<\/strong> to introduce a vision for community in\u00a0future human society. In our\u00a0future, she explained, “we will be in close quarters in neighborhoods” that are self-sustaining. In addition to new technology, urban gardens and\u00a0sustainable\u00a0architecture, “it will require greater cooperation.” To distribute resources and live with security, “we will need to help each other out, and to communicate well with respect and clarity.”<\/p>\n

The ceremony will last about a half-hour, to be followed by music, dance, hula hoops and making\u00a0faerie ear cuffs.\u00a0Combining serious ideas and playful fun.<\/p>\n

When responding to the 7 Questions, Karen saw the NYC Flock House as “a covered wagon crossed with Cinderella’s pumpkin coach.” “Yes,” she wants to spend the night in the Omaha Flock House with her sister, when she comes to visit. She envisions a “water tank hung at the top with some kind of hose coming down. You could also hang planters or trays from the support beams to grow food.” Recycled building materials might come from buildings “that are being torn down or parts being thrown out.”<\/p>\n

To design future\u00a0neighborhoods, we need to “think about mobility needs, and what people from all different walks of life might need.” This would include “safety measures\u00a0and\u00a0resource sharing\/cooperation.” Mobile self-sustaining Flock Houses “would allow people to easily move to places where there are resources and safety.”<\/p>\n

Karen’s design for a Flock House is a\u00a0model on wheels. It can\u00a0collapse to become a trailer to transport essentials, or opened into a\u00a0living or commerce structure.<\/p>\n
