+# Archiving New Naturals: A Manifesto
+
+![](../../images/finalpics-193.jpg)
+
+*As a starting point for the project, I wrote this manifesto for the obsessively curious, the critical makers, the material nerds. Now let's keep going. By Loes Bogers, 2 April 2020*
+
+1. What is a material? **If we can perceive "stuff" as *useful*, it is a material**; 
+1. if usefulness is in the eye of the beholder, perhaps what we need most is to do **diversify *and* nuance our understanding of usefulness**
+1. if material = useful "stuff", we perhaps we should **evaluate materials in terms of what they *do*** (the superpowers they have) and less by what the *are* (in terms of traditional taxonomies);
+1. **we need *ongoing* material activism**, especially in the face of smart and advanced materials increasing popularity. What could be methods to continue to demystify material craftsmanship as materials research evolves and becomes highly technical and less accessible due to increasing complexity as well as patenting intellectual property?
+1. **if plastics are not the only issue, then bioplastics are not the only solution**, dyeing and chemical treatments and finishes are equally if hazardous for the environment and workers. Biodegradable, or even biocompostable plastics will not solve all our problems;
+1. **designers and makers need to get comfortable drawing from different fields of knowledge** and their methods like empirical approaches and systematic ways of experimenting and documenting, such as in fields of biology, chemistry and other "hard" sciences.
+1. but we need to be equally **aware of history, cultural heritage and the politics of design materials** in terms of their cultural history, as well as their socio-economic and ecological implications:
+1. **we need open-source material knowledge**. If resources are part of the commons, then so are material knowledge and craftsmanship, but we need to continue to build it up and keep it alive. 
+1. **make materials from scratch**. It will bring the entire ecology of material knowledge, production, distribution and legislation into view and open to questioning;
+1. **cultivate material craftsmanship** and understand the importance time and controlled environments effect on a material's growth/curing/drying. But equally, learn to work *with* any material (rather than expecting it to bend to your will). 
+1. look for and learn to appreciate **locally abundant resources** and their potential, and start to see them appear in very unlikely places;
+1. **spend time with materials and resources**. Attention and dedication to the cooking/curing/drying or growth process will allow you to start seeing alternative uses, options, applications (and are necessary in understanding how be somewhat in control of their final form).
+1. **learn from practices from all over the world** to strengthen your own locally centered practice. Or: let's not yield to the temptation of turning the wealth material resources and knowledge into yet another candy shop to pick and choose from at will;
+1. **ask questions to stay with the trouble** of so-called sustainable materials, rather than setting out to find silver bullet solutions (see also point 5).
+1. **document and share** your process, research and outcomes using formats to describe their sensory and technical properties, and give an impression of their tactile, and auditory qualities.

+
+*Vegetable-based glycerine from the brand OrphiFarma*
+
+
+# GLYCERINE 
+
+
+(glycerin, glycerol)
+
+**What is it and how is it produced or sourced?**
+
+Glycerin is a sugar alcohol derived from animal products, plants or petroleum (as a by-product of biofuel). It can also be obtained from microalgae oils, and it can be recovered from used cooking oil. Not all of these are equally common however.
+
+Vegetable glycerin is made by heating triglyceride-rich vegetable fats — such as palm, soy and coconut oils — under pressure, using heat, and/or together with a strong alkali, such as lye, which causes the glycerin to split away from the fatty acids and mix together with water, forming an odorless, sweet-tasting, syrup-like liquid. During WWI and WWII, glycerine was produced by fermentation as well, but there routes have not been under-utilized by industry because it could not compete with chemical synthesis from petrochemical compounds. 
+
+With necessary precaution you can make glycerine yourself.
+
+**What are its possible functions in biofabricating?**
+
+*e.g. plasticizer, filler, colorant, PH modifier, mordant, solvent, release agent, curing agent, softener, and so on*
+
+Vegetable glycerin softens and hydrates human skin, increasing smoothness and suppleness. It is often used in skincare and also works as a laxative. It has antimicrobial and antiviral properties. It has many possible functions (as many as 1583 uses have been listed by the Glycerine Producers Association in 1945), but here are a few that are particularly useful in biofabication:
+
+- plasticizer for more flexible bioplastics
+- moisturizer or softener in fish leather tanning (e.g. fish leather)
+- additive for soap bubble mixes
+- solvent for	 pigment extraction (not documented here)
+
+**Processing information**
+
+Dissolves in:	cold and hot water, and alcohol
+PH value:		5
+
+**Selecting the right type**
+
+*How do you know if you are getting the right type (in nature/at the shop)? Or can you use any? For example, carbonate and bicarbonate soda are significantly different, but you may find it is referred to as "soda"*
+
+Look for glycerin(e) or glycerol. In the U.S., glycerin(e) is a brand name for a purified variety of 95%, with glycerol being the principal component. In Europe, glycerol is more widely applied interchangeably. Smaller bottles are often more expensive. You might need to contact the supplier about the origins of the product if you want to know before. Choose a plant-based glycerine, it should state on the label what it is made of.
+
+## Local abundance
+
+**Where are you located?**
+
+Rotterdam, the Netherlands
+
+**Can this ingredient be found in nature there?**
+
+No, it is a processed ingredient. But it can be produced almost anywhere. Try to find a vegetable-based glycerine that is produced regionally or locally. 
+
+**If not, please describe or list local suppliers and price**
+
+In the Netherlands, Orphi is an affordable vegetable-based glycerin brand. This ingredient is best purchased online, in 1 litre bottles. 
+
+and costs about 6 Euros per 1000 ml (1L). 
+
+**If store-bought, find out where the ingredient was produced. How far is the production source from where you are?**
+
+In Portugal: less than 2000 km from site of use
+
+##Eco-compatibility
+
+*Type and amount of energy used to produce this ingredient, e.g. does it require a lot of water, heat, chemicals?*
+
+The production of glycerine requires heat and pressure, and sometimes strong alkali, like lye. It it also a product of fermentation processes but this is less efficient and cannot yet compete with synthetic methods. 
+
+**Toxicity**
+
+*Is this ingredient toxic to humans/animals?*
+
+No. But some people have an allergic skin reaction to vegetable glycerine. 
+
+**Distance from origin to site of use** 
+
+*In which region(s) of the world is this produced? Is it related to specific natural contexts or industries (e.g. near sea or rivers, in hot humid climates).*
+
+Depends on the way it is produced, but there are many methods. Needs further research.
+
+**Shelf life** 
+
+*Look up shelf life & expiry date, but also use of senses to check: can you see when it’s off, can you smell it?*
+
+Shelf life: years if unopened, check smell
+
+**Vegan**
+
+*Is it made without the use of any animal products?*
+
+Yes/No, depends on the method of production
+
+
+**Is this a by-product is it found in a waste stream?**
+
+*Is this ingredient a by-product or does it come from waste streams*	
+Yes, it *can* be a by-product of biofuel production and/or soap production, but this is not always the case. 
+
+**Renewable**
+
+*Can this resource be naturally replenished on a human timescale?*
+
+Yes
+
+*What do you know about how long it takes for this ingredient regrow?Which plants/micro organisms grow this ingredient? How long does it take them to regenerate? Under which conditions?*
+
+- Glycerine from soy: byproduct of soybean biodiesel industry
+- Glycerine from palm oil: kernels of palm fruits are harvested all year round. But is also connected to deforestation issues.
+- Glycerine may be a byproduct from soap manufacturing 
+
+Needs more research
+
+
+## Cultural & historical information
+
+*Historically, what were the uses of this ingredient? In which contexts were these uses discovered? When? By whom? How did it travel to other places?*
+
+Glycerine is closely linked to the life processes themselves, and is a component of all living cells. It occurs naturally in wine, beer, bread and other fermentation products of sugar and grains. It is found in nature as triglycerides (a combination of glycerine and fatty acids that make up almost any vegetable and animal fat or oil). 
+
+Glycerine was discovered by accident in 1779 by K.W.Scheele. The Swedish chemist was heating olive oil and a lead monoxide, and he published his findings in 1783 in the Transactions of the Royal Academy of Sweden. His method which he called "the sweet principle of fat" was renamed into glycerine (from the Greek γλυκύς or glukus which means sweet) by M.E. Chevreul, who patented a new production method in 1823. Glycerine was of no economic significance until Alfred Nobel found the first worldwide technical application for it: for his invention of dynamite in 1866. It is said to have fueled industrial development of chemicals. 
+
+##Concerns 
+
+**Describe how this ingredient has been or might be contested. What are the concerns and dilemmas? Which arguments are put forward?**
+
+*may be cultural, health-wise, ecological, social, cultural, political, economical arguments*
+
+The purity of glycerine is essential for some applications (e.g. in chemistry, cosmetics, and food grade glycerine). With the increase in biofuel production, the production of glycerine grew as well. Purifying glycerine however is a particularly energy intentive part of the production process. Perhaps further research could be done on the required purity of glycerine for use in bioplastics.

-A really useful way of documenting the sensory qualities of a material, or the "feel" and sound of it is to shoot a video. With some small tricks you can show a lot of properties that a material has, using sound and reflection of light while you are playing with a sample.

-#ARCHIVE STARTER: RECIPES
-
-
-A selection of 24 biofabricated materials we suggest to build as your "starter archive". It is developed for anyone who would like to build their own physical archive with samples. Building the basic archive will teach you the foundational techniques that most other recipes will build upon, and require you to collect the basic tools and ingredients you will need. By making this archive starter of material samples, you will learn some of the most important techniques to start your own R&D lab for design materials.

-# Label templates
-
-![](../../images/labelimagehere.jpg)*Labeling your samples, Loes Bogers, 2020*
-
-As you start to create your material experiments, you will want to organize the way you archive them. These labels can be used to organize your samples. Only include items that are fully cured and/or dried. 
-
-All these labels can be printed on regular office printers that can print on heavier paper, like A4, 160 or 210 grams/m2. Check what your printer allows. They can be edited InDesign or Acrobat Pro (for now). 
-
-Use strong double-sided tape to attach a strong label with a hole to it if you wish to hang them. Designs for a display system will be added here at a later stage. 
-
-The label designs were originally created by [Maria Viftrup](https://viftrup.com/textilelab) for TextileLab Waag in Amsterdam, modified by Loes Bogers in April 2020 with permission by Waag. The font used is Calibri light.

-##Growing your local (physical) archive
-
-A nice systematic way of growing your archive is by starting simple variations on existing recipes, e.g. by changing the amounts, adding or substituting one ingredient, etcetera. 
-
-**Title**
-
-Think of a short, descriptive title
-
-**[Core]-based?**
-
-Here you can what is the main constituent material to help describe what kind of material this is. This is not a hard classification, but is supposed to provide a meaningful descriptor to help place the material (which the title alone might not be able to do). 
-
-For example, a bioplastic may be *gelatine-based*, or *agar-based*, or *starch-based* (or a combination). Fish leather is *animal-based*, whereas a mango leather would be *plant-based*, or perhaps even based on fruit waste. Dyes or inks are usually classified accordig to their solvent: e.g. *alcohol-based* or *water-based* because it says something about how they might be used. Whereas pure pigment (powders, or pigments grown on silk like the Serratia Marcescens recipe could be considered *microbial*. 
-
-Some examples: 
-
-- animal-based (fish leather)
-- gelatine-based (bioplastics with gelatine)
-- plant-based (cotton)
-- based on algae (alginate and agar plastics)
-- food waste (clay from banana peels)
-- natural waste (withered flower paper)
-- plastic waste (recycled PLA)
-- microbial (e.g. kombucha, bacterial dye)
-- fungal (e.g. mycelium, is not in the 25 recipes listed here for now)
-- alcohol-based (red cabbage ink with alcohol as the solvent)
-- water-based (dyes made by boiling dye stuff in water)
-
-**Renewable/reusable/compostable?**
-
-All these terms are explained on the [glossary page](../glossary.md).
-
-**Ingredients/making procedure**
-
-Keep it short and sweet, and make sure you refer to the extended recipe that ca be accessed online (see also "variations on a source recipe".)
-
-**Variations on a source recipe**
-
-The labels ask you to state which recipe is the "source" recipe, and how you are making variations on it. Assuming that you will start off by coming up with variations on the recipes listed here. Did you develop or find new recipe? Keep on reading to find out how to contribute to the digital archive as well. 
-
-*URL & QR code*
-
-Put the URL to the online recipe in the box on the top left, and/or generate a QR code for that url and add it on the label for easy access on mobile phones. You can find [free QR code generators](https://www.qr-code-generator.com) online. Use short URLs if possible, you can shorten URLs with for example [bit.ly](https://app.bitly.com).
-
-**Customize with your lab's logo & website**
-
-Use the top right box and text field to customize the label by adding your lab's logo and url if you wish. 
-
-**The small letters!**
-
-Don't forget to fill out your details and the date of fabrication at the bottom of the label. 
-
-##Contributing to the collaborative digital archive\* 
-
-*\* For the time being it is only possible to submit to the archive in this way, but the intention is to automate this fully in the future.*
-
-If your variations have turned into a substantially different material, with different properties, please contribute to the digital archive by filling a form for a [new recipe entry](../new_recipe.md) and sending it to l.bogers [at] hva [dot] nl.
-
-*Adding new ingredients*
-If your recipe requires a new ingredient, please also fill out a form for a [new ingredient entry](../new_ingredient.md) and sending it to l.bogers [at] hva [dot] nl.
