Zarata mediatikoz beteriko garai nahasiotan, merkatu logiketatik urrun eta irakurleengandik gertu dagoen kazetaritza beharrezkoa dela uste baduzu, ARGIA bultzatzera animatu nahi zaitugu. Geroz eta gehiago gara, jarrai dezagun txikitik eragiten.

Just like the tree, it's culture to put the tree on top and hold the branches. Great knowledge, culture. Otherwise, by breaking the branches and deforming them, it would help a plant that would be rapacious and in turn give a new future. Culture: working. Help grow. Sometimes to the point of being a completely different plant. We make a new plant with ourselves.

They have a beautiful and spectacular example in Formentera. Spectacular, truly, one of those who deserve a visit. We move further to get to know a lot of worse things... It is called “Na Blanca d’en Mestre” and is a fig tree, Ficus carica. He lives in Es Pla d’en Mestre, about a hundred years old and a shade of 356 square meters.

The fig tree is a tree that comes into effect and grows rapidly after it is glued. But it's made of weak, soft, off-white wood. Because it grows fast or because it wants to grow faster? What is the reason why hardwood is not made? On the one hand, the lack of solid wood and permanent stinginess allows for rapid growth. It needs less energy. It will grow faster. On the other hand, the creation of a soft wood causes the branches to tilt and fall soon. When he touches land, he will give him roots and there, through that branch, the new fig tree linked to his mother will grow. She also grows the branches, they bend, they take root, they stick and the new plants return; a chain that never ends. If peace were to be given to the fig tree, it would reach all around, forming a tree that emerged from the ever-widening branch, expanded and expanded, which would be a gigantic and unique fig tree.

That’s “Na Blanca d’en Mestre”. The branches that tend to bend as they grow have been replaced by a crutch, a gafa. The branches march forward, supported by the agape, and the new theme and the new future. Up to 356 square meters of fig tree, farewell from large goat and herd herds. It's an architectural lesson. They say it's a construction. I say that it is culture, a monument that holds 143 themes. In 1992 they gave it that name, apparently the biggest slice in Europe.

Bambúd, tablado

Last February. Goodbye to the winter and welcome to the municipal police, to the grass or to the grass. It's nice to be blackened, but for the next time I'll leave that path. I still want to flush the wood...

From species to flower

From wood emerges more than a splinter, among other expressions... But the proverb says: "Splinter for wood." Return of the muela: from seed to plant, seed to plant. Many of them have been Gotzon Garate. Ready for enjoyment?

What wood, what a splinter. What a trunk, what a... [+]

Galileos, round cuba

Tough, resilient timber, which will have to withstand a great deal of tension and strength, will be thrown into these darkness, as I said the other day. If you accidentally cut a tree off to get a wood of this kind, the waning moon of February will close with a month, and those... [+]

Avellano or avellano

Winter is usually the time of wood and wood. Most of those used in our culture are cut in winter. Resistant, resistant, tensile and forceful woods will be thrown into these moons. Demolition work for logs that give rise to soft and flexible hardwood or woods will be high season... [+]

The Age of Clogs

Weather conditions are over; water, water and water. What to talk about in the elevator or at the bus stop? There's no news, and you have to start throwing away something else to tell stories. The advantage of being said to have been bad for some time, you have to think ... The... [+]

Wood and wood stereo
In the fire favor kitchen, it's time to value the flame of cooking and the heat of food. Fire. Firewood is recovering a fame that it should never have lost and has a promising future. Not for cooking, but I think we'll see more and more in building heating.

At some point

Carrozillo or snail (Rhamnus alaternus) is not abundant. It is berozale and lives very well among other trees and shrubs that share this same hobby, such as the Madroño (Arbutus unedo), the cork oak (Quercus suber), the bull (Laurus nobilis), the motherhood (Quercus pyrenaica)... [+]

Diabolical wood

Touching the violin

I play the violin. I'm a better arpist than a violinist, but the violin is my livelihood. Warm summer, the heat lasts a lot. We paste it. In summer, I have the pagotxa, the concert string. In summer, the Alfer, in addition to the first, is proud, and some have to explain that it... [+]

Dog violin

If when we were kids, we saw a dog scratching his leg to soothe the itch or to send the fleas to wind, we said he was “playing the guitar.” Dogs, I don't know, but some dog will touch the violin. I mean, it's going to be a violinist dog.

To play, you have to dance the hoop on... [+]

Zauritu

Zuhaitzak, arbolak eta zuhaixkak muskildu, inausi eta lepatu egiten ditugu. Batzuetan muskil edo kimu ttikiak, eta besteetan adartxoak, adar politak, baita adar tzar asarreak ere. Berari kendu, eta bueltan zauria utziz.

Forma jakin bat emateko mozten ditugu landareak: itzala... [+]

Gaztaiak ketzen

Aurrekoa amaitu nuen erari helduko diot: gosea piztuz. Gazta aipatu nuen. Alnus glutinosa, haltzaren ezpalez ketzen direla nioen, baita haltzak bihotzaz gain odola ere baduela. Kolore gorri asko eransten dio gaztari, gorri hila, distiragabe hila. Ketzen azkarrena da haltza,... [+]

Bihotz bero

Odol giroa nagusi izaten da neguero. Guraize, aihotz, zerrote, motozerra... inauskaiak zorrotz! Epaia emateko prest epaikiak. Epaile kaskarin gehiegi. Buru beroko kasko asko. Bihozgabe bihozgabetzaileak.

Inausten diren zuhaitzek bihotza non duten ez dakigu. Sentitzen dutelako... [+]
