	Lye from wood ash: Journey to Forever
		Lye made from wood ash is potassium hydroxide, not sodium hydroxide -- there's 10 times as much potassium as sodium in wood ash.
		When the brown lye water stops coming out of the barrel, or ash container, then pour four to five pints (2-1/2 to three litre) of soft water through the ashes, collecting the lye which comes out in a separate "safe" container (as this lye may be weaker than the first lot).
		The lye solution was obtained by placing wood ashes in a bottomless barrel set on a stone slab with a groove and a lip carved in it.

	Lye
		The thing we were all warned about not to drink as children, major component in modern drain openers and indispensable material to medieval tanners, linen finishers, and innumerable other trades.
		Lye was locally made from various and sundry caustic ingredients, including fowl droppings, human urine, wood ash, and powdered limestone, mixed down with rainwater to desired strength.
		Lye was used to bleach, to soften, and to scour, and to dissolve unwanted bits of adhering materials (flesh or fat from hides during tanning, for instance).

	The wit of the wobble: Len Lye and the metaphysics of eccentricity (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		Lye is best known for his direct film technique, in which an artist scratches or draws on the celluloid.
		All of Lye's work is strongly evocative, suggesting a deep substratum in the mind—a primitive section of the cortex which Lye called “the old brain”—that commands the body by instinct.
		I doubt that Lye's intention was to ridicule phrenology, the misguided vogue of the enlightenment, but rather to play with recognition, to allow the mechanical process to simplify a form up to a point before which it becomes unrecognisable.

	'The Absolute Truth of the Happiness Acid'
		For Lye, this 'selfness' was anchored to the body and to bodily weight and motion, which explained his preoccupation with the kineticism of film and moving sculpture.
		Lye spent two years in Samoa 'to work on kinetic constructions', but he found the island life so intoxicating it was difficult to apply himself to his art.
		In his writing Lye asserted his aim was to depart from an inhibiting film narrative tradition set in place by D.W. Griffith in favour of one based on the kinaesthetic potential of film, which he thought was achieved in some animated cartoons (UPA, not Disney).
