Listen "This Amarkaner Life: Bee Curious"
Episode Synopsis
There's already a bit of a buzz around this episode — if only because the Amarkaners in question are the island’s hard-working honeybees.In episode three, we visit Bybi — a bee-powered project based in Amager’s historic Sundholm district — to meet its British founder, Oliver Maxwell.We learn about Bybi's unusual origin story and location, discover why Oliver prefers to see honey as an "invitation" not a product, and hear about the honey that has some of Copenhagen's best chefs "falling over backwards".“As soon as you start working with bees, you realise that honey is absolutely magical," Oliver says. "You put these creatures out around the city and over a few days, weeks and months, they accumulate this absolute treasure."The sound design is by two artists — Squares and Triangles and Scenery.Visit www.archipelagoaudio.com for more information.
