(via How to Build a Boat in 24 Hours)
James Bowthorpe, self-described artist, activist, filmmaker, furniture maker, and father, flew from the UK to New York last week to take part in The Feast, a two-day summit focused on creativity and social impact. Bowthorpe had a goal: to build a boat made from the waste of the conference, and then paddle it from Red Hook (where The Feast took place) to Battery Park and back again. To make it a proper challenge, Bowthorpe set a few rules: all building materials had to come from dumpsters within a one-block radius of the conference at Pioneer Works; the tools he brought with him had to fit in his carry-on bag; and, perhaps the easiest one, he had to do it in 24 hours.

I totally didn’t mean to reply to this. It’s 1 am and I should be in bed but I’m not and I accidentally replied…. So yeah. “U” unintended. But this is actually really cool. So fate was nice this time.
