The Seymour Oak: veteran oak in Savernake Forest in its summer garb: cloak of leaves, skirts of ferns, a robe of moss.

We meet professional arborist and furniture maker Duncan Young, to learn about his passion for veteran trees and the unique timber they produce. Subscribe 🔔 http://ab.co/GA-subscribe

Duncan is passionate about trees, in every iteration. He splits his professional time between caring for living trees as an arborist, and his practice making timber furniture, much of it from timber that he himself has cut.

“I was a rock climber which is how I fell into arboriculture, and then I just had access to all of this timber. I saw so much being chipped into mulch, but at the same time, I was learning quickly about the flora and fauna related to these trees. The incredible habitat value but also the timber, I could see how valuable they really were”.

Duncan started salvaging some timber, carving the odd spoon. But has now taken his making to a new level, buying a portable Mill, studying design and now furniture making at the renowned SA craft institution, The Jam Factory. “I guess over time I am trying to amalgamate my careers; I work in the human effort, the dirt and dust of managing trees, but also exploring what I see as the juxtaposition between our constructed world and nature. Capitalism values scarcity but the environment values abundance – that is what I am interested in”.

As an arborist, Duncan is a specialist, caring for what he calls ‘Veteran trees’, those that are so commonly misunderstood or even lost. “Primarily my focus as a furniture maker is on native timbers and trying to highlight their inherent beauty and value. Oak is seen as more valuable than eucalypt, a big focus of my work is to change that perception”.

Duncan’s respect for trees is inspiring, participating in every part of the process of valuing them. Firstly, working to retain veteran trees, to inform and educate people of their irreplaceable value but then also honouring the useful, beautiful, and unique timber they produce.

Nothing hones in the message of Sky like the days of bloom for me.

Death is inevitable, you can never escape Eden, it looms over almost every area in the game, sometimes subtle, but always present

The trees quickly grow to their full size in front of your eyes, but just as soon as they reach their full bloom, glowing beautifully, they start to decay

There's nothing you can do, its not your fault. Its just the say nature goes, all that blooms must wither

But still. There's this feeling of dread that never goes away, this feeling that time is rushing by way to quick, the end coming way to fast

#the dog barks #sky colt #sky children of the light #days of bloom #add to that the fact that Im a pretty old veteran #Im tired and dont really have the time to hang around and enjoy the view #i log in to see the withered wisteria tree and I feel like time rushed to quick #like death came too early

on a social level i like my current choir more than the previous one. im actually getting to know people and enjoy talking and going to social events outside of choir which i havent done since my first choir. but also i definitely miss the music taste my last director had

current choir has a focus on north american composers. obviously theres baller stuff in that selection pool. but listen. listen i wanna sing bulgarian folk music again.

#im so mad we never got to sing kafal sviri in my previous choir because covid hit #i wanted that recorded so fucking bad #also in general id like to sing more latin pieces #i'll be riding the high of singing imant raminsh's missa brevis gloria until the day i die #its not that i dislike her music choices she picks some cool stuff like #we're singing jesus christ the apple tree which absolutely slaps. always happy to sing that again. #and children go where i send thee!! #but also we're doing a veterans day concert and its really boring shit i wanna get to christmas already #because thats where the good music is at #faeloops

So hey uh I’ve seen a lot of people that think the regret Annabeth has in the grove is related to Percy, the chair or something else, but uhhh hahahhh did we forget the very clear line of logic that involves trees that used to be people??

#like book veterans are like omg it’s about the chair #honey my brother in the gods #look me in the eye and tell me what annabeth was thinking about walking through a forest of people turning into trees #because it certainly wasn’t Percy Jackson #pjo series #pjo tv show #pjo

Good morning. 🫘☕🌦️

11 November 2023

Today is Veterans Day in the states. 🪖 To my fellow Veterans, men and women who are or have been ready to enter harm's way, I say:

This We'll Defend, Semper fidelis, Semper Fortis, Aim High … Fly-Fight-Win, and Semper Paratus. Oh, and one more, a new one: Semper Supra.

“We sleep safely at night because rough men stand ready to visit violence on those who would harm us.” - Winston S. Churchill

“The soldier is the Army. No army is better than its soldiers. The Soldier is also a citizen. In fact, the highest obligation and privilege of citizenship is that of bearing arms for one’s country” - George S. Patton Jr.
