The Diaper Cycle Biochar Making (adults) & Panty Painting (adults + children)
Workshop with DYCLE
DYCLE - The Diaper Cycle is a fundamentally new way of producing, using and recycling,
or rather upcycling, diapers for babies. ”At DYCLE, we ensure that diapers are no longer a
waste product, but an environmentally valuable product that can deliver nutrients to
plants and can be transformed into high-quality fertile soil.”
Learn how the DYCLE cycle works and see how biochar, the charcoal soal amendment,
is made. For small children there will be a colouring workshop, “Panty Painting,”
seeking creative designs and ideas for the outer pants of our biodegradable diapers.
”We would also like to make an OPEN CALL to sustainable designers who are interested in
working with us to make and develop designs for the creation of outer pants for baby
diapers.”

Waste Cooking and ReDining
With The Real Junk Food Project Berlin
Come enjoy delicious, nutritious meals composed of only surplus food. Help out, learn
some tricks or just sit down for a tasty experience and good conversations...
The Real Junk Food Project Berlin is part of a global voluntary-run food waste campaign,
a collaborative effort to bring about a radical change in our food system. Their first step
to achieve this challenging task is to intercept perfectly edible food that would
otherwise not make it to plate and serve it as meals in the café or distribute it through
their food boutique. As well as the positive environmental impacts of reducing edible
food waste the project also has clear social benefits through operating a strictly Pay-asyou-feel (PAYF) policy . PAYF offers an alternative to the conventional the payment
system as there is no price on any produce of the café. Their system transcends
monetary transactions and liberates people to use their skills and attributes as well as
money to pay for their meals. Furthermore, they aim to highlight the absurdity that the
produce they use has been stripped of its monetary value but still retains its nutritional
value. By making people think about what they wish to contribute for their meals, the
idea is to get society thinking about how they value food as a resource.

UNDUNE – The Movie
Film screening
Undune is a documentary about Terra Preta, Feces & Mars. Terra Preta: a way to create
a fertile, black soil out of our feces. Yes, feces, turds, poop, number 2, whatever you
want to call them, they’re inevitable and – strangely enough – valuable. In a mixture of
fiction and documentary, Undune tackles this everyday taboo – and dares to ask: are we
wasting our waste when we flush? Undune tells the story of Gregor, a young physicist
who wants to help colonize Mars. Through interviews with Terra-Preta pioneers, Gregor
begins to construct a method for making human excrement usable on the red planet.
His interviewees believe in Terra Pretas’ potential to save our planet, but Gregor seems
to be more interested in cloaking his surroundings in daydreams, including brief
episodes that follow the discoveries of a space explorer who’s been stranded on Earth.
With the skewed perspective of a true outsider, the explorer comments on mankind’s
peculiarities – including our fascination with wasting our waste.
UNDUNE will make you ask yourself: Is there such a thing as useless shit?
