Ceramic Futures 1.0 Experiments

My concept for Ceramic Futures and New Nature topic was to create an artificial ceramic beach. It was inspired by my personal experience in coral beach in Australia which felt absolutely amazing. However it is well known that corals are in big danger now due to climate change, so in some centuries we won't have that natural miracle of coral beaches anymore. On the contrary we're having more and more ceramic waste which is not really recycled in efficient way. Normally recycling ceramic would eliminate all the values put into it as it implies grinding it back into dust (also requiring a lot of energy). Instead ceramic debris could contribute with its cultutl nd aesthetic values to the new beaches instead of corals in the future. 
 
I started experiments to explore how far pleasent experience of ceramics could stretch not trying to fully copy natural corals qualities, but using the as an ehalon to evaluate caramics.
