Content Warning

In the shadow of a 19th-20th century slag pile, a beach has been transformed into a cemented platform of reworked slag particles.

The anthropogenic debris is so far out of equilibrium with surface conditions that you get rapid cement formation, and within decades, an anthropogenic "rock".

A 饝惔饝惗饝悷饝惗 (hiti) is an ancient Newah urban water feature: a stepped, sunken courtyard with waterspouts and a central pool. These are fed through a remarkable network of pipes, reservoirs, and irrigation systems drawing water from mountain springs dozens of kilometres away. Every day, hundreds of people from the neighbourhood come to draw water, bathe, and exchange news. They are a unique and precious feature of Newa urban architecture through which neighbourhoods are created.
