Peter Hamilton was an architect, activist and record producer. After the 1973 Aquarius festival in Nimbin, he spent 30 years living in northern NSW and was a founding member of Bodhi Farm, one of the earliest 'hippie' communes. He saw and practised the benefits of living in low-cost, sustainable housing and sharing land in an extended family community.
