:material research into how terracotta behaves in different environments
initial experiments were to re-capture moisture—to attempt reusing/recycling the moisture evaporated from the terracotta in project:Terracoola. Multiple environments were used, the 2 significant ones were: soil and water.

atempting to recapture moisture evaporated after having absorbed water.
attempting to create a self sustained method of providing moisture to the terracotta structure and finding out whether terracotta can evaporate, solely the water content, from polluted liquids.
attempting to understand how water flows towards the terracotta structure.
Findings & Applications
the structure when exposed to a slurry of dirt,coffee,soil was capable of evaporating water after absorption.
the structure, when exposed to a slurry of turmeric and vegetable oils, collect the pollutants at the base.
possibilities into pollutant filtering using terracotta
controlled steady cooling[through collaboration with the soil]—implications for automated cooling with terracotta without machinery.
possibilities into recapturing moisture evaporated by structure
