More floating art! The Waterpod project is about self-sufficient living on a 30×100 foot barge. They were using bike power, raising chickens, harvesting rainwater, solar hot water heating, greenhouse gardening, composting, using a windmill, and getting lots of press about it last year. In a New York Times article, John McGarvey describes it as “farm life, minus the livestock — but inside the fishbowl of New York City.” While this is an art project, I’m looking forward to exploring the concept of housing at sea.
