Welcome to our third episode recorded at the Driving the Human
festival in Berlin! If you’re living in a city, you’re probably
familiar with some kind of urban gardening project – maybe
there’s even one in your neighborhood. Artist Vincent Rumahloine
and environmental activist Mang Dian are part of the worldwide
movement, they also founded an urban gardening project in their
home town of Bandung, Indonesia. But what exactly makes the
project called Sedekah Benih (“Sharing Seeds”) so unique? First,
they’re only harvesting chili plants. Second, they are using
traditional Indonesian ways of making music to communicate with
the plants. Also, the space has gotten a life on its own: With
various activities like cooking competitions (“Who makes the best
chili paste?”) it is slowly becoming a safer space for the
LGBTQIA community of Bandung.
