How I Perceive Myself

My parents named my Teri Lynn, and I inherited my father's last name, Grunthaner. That is useful to know for compartmentalization in your mind, but how much does it really matter? A nose by any other name would still smell... :D

So why not get right down to it: The current purpose that I've assigned my life is getting to know the world through knowing myself, and getting to know myself through knowing the world (and visa-versa from the worlds' perspective:). Living, learning, and loving every sensation and experience is my ideal method, but it takes much practice. I'll help you as you help me. <3

My Interests in Appropriate Technology

  • How it necessitates a creative, bottom-up, collaborative approach to problem-solving and asset-building
  • The individual and collective empowerment derived from creating capital to meet communal needs
  • It's contribution to the establishment of economic, social, and ecologic sustainability and justice

My Experience in Appropriate Technology

  • Co-created a bike trailer out of recycled materials
  • Helping manage a Community Currency
  • Co-designing and constructing an Umbrella Solar Cooker

If you can draw the curve that your umbrella cooker makes, you can model it and compare it with other curves with the software available there. Brian
