Geodomos | Alquiler y venta de domos geodésicos y carpas estructurales Arvo Pärt Sound Cloud - Coop Himmelb(l)au The Sound Cloud takes reference from Arvo Pärt’s music as well as the dense pine forest. Its shape is derived from the song “Spiegel im Spiegel”, consolidating the main sequence spectrogram of the song into the curves of a roof. This cloud of sound forms an introverted space within where the music is played and listened to and a space underneath that becomes the work and meeting place for the people interested in the legacy of the composer. The cloud only touches the ground where it is thickened to house the performance space, and otherwise hovers between the trees, like the tree house of the observation platform, suspended in the natural environment of the forest. The complex rooms of the program are organized in their functional groups and combined into a box building that is placed underneath the roof.
Four Future P2P Scenarios This entry is about the theory of the four future scenarios for a collaborative economy, firstly developed by Michel Bauwens. It is important to mention that Vasilis Kostakis and Michel Bauwens are working on a research monograph that explores the relation of capitalism and the Commons. The book Network Society and Future Scenarios for a Collaborative Economy is contracted by Palgrave Macmillan. Videos: Books: Kostakis, V. & Bauwens M. Articles: Bauwens, M. & Kostakis, V. This essay attempts to simplify possible outcomes by using two axes or polarities which give rise to four possible scenarios. Netarchical Capitalism (NC) We define as “netarchical capitalism” the first combination (upper-left) which matches centralized control of a distributed infrastructure with an orientation towards the accumulation of capital. Distributed Capitalism (DC) The second combination, (bottom-left) called “distributed capitalism”, matches distributed control but with a remaining focus on capital accumulation.
Los Domos de Asia | Geometrica Durante los últimos 23 años, Geométrica ha instalado cientos de domos para los sectores comerciales e industriales. Ya sea diseñados con revestimiento de vidrio o construidos de acero galvanizado y aluminio, estas aplicaciones arquitectónicas e industriales han cambiado literalmente el panorama en 30 países. Dentro de esta amplia selección de obras hay proyectos regionales notables por su belleza estructural inherente, inmensa envergadura, y su instalación desafiante. Estos proyectos demuestran aún más la flexibilidad de la tecnología Freedome®, que permite el uso completo del espacio interior - sin columnas o barreras que interrumpan el flujo de personas, el tránsito y el inventario. Disfrute de la siguiente muestra de Domos en Asia que demuestran la flexibilidad del Sistema Geométrica.

Welcome to the Community Exchange System Geodesic Dome Calculator — ByExample.com Our geodesic dome calculator will calculate the length and number of struts for 2V, 3V, and 4V geodesic domes based on the specified radius. It's a useful tool for planning the size of your dome. Radius = 7 meters * Strut lengths are from vertex to vertex. When designing and building a dome strut lengths will have to be reduced if using connectors and will have to be increased if using bolts to connect flattened ends of pipe. To re-calculate the strut lengths enter a new value for the dome's Radius below. Numbers must be entered in decimal format, IE 10.5 feet, not 10 feet 6 inches. Use the pulldown menu to choose your units.

The Landesgartenschau Exhibition Hall was conceived at the University of Stuttgart as part of the “Robotics in Timber Construction” research project and realized in collaboration with Müllerblaustein Holzbau GmbH, Landesgartenschau Schwäbisch Gmünd 2014 GmbH, the forest administration of Baden-Württemberg (ForstBW) and KUKA Robotics GmbH. Wood is one of the oldest building materials known to mankind.
DACs — Invictus Innovations Incorporated Distributed Autonomous Corporations (DACs), or Decentralized Autonomous Companies, are a generalization of the concept of a crypto-currency where the currency is backed by the services its miners perform rather than a real-world commodity like gold, oil, or, ahem, thin air. If we can barter for goods and services, why can’t we back currencies with goods or services? DACs may be simultaneously viewed as crypto-currencies and crypto-equities (unmanned businesses). As businesses, they perform services intended to be valuable to their customers. Such services might include money transmission (Bitcoin), asset trading (BitShares), domain name services (DomainShares), or a thousand other business models sure to emerge as people realize that DACs are not mere “altcoins”. DACs pay for the services they need (like computer resources and bandwidth) with shares of their own company “stock”. To the outside world a DAC is nothing but a crypto-currency backed by the value of the services it provides.
Geodome -- Geodesic design software Welcome | ICFF Break the Bank: Build Your Local Economy - Natural Health Bartering was the original means of exchanging goods and services, predating the invention of money as we know it. Garden bounty was traded for sheep’s cheese; mead was swapped for a woven blanket. Today, a resurgence in bartering is underway, as people turn away from our culture’s dominant “buy more stuff” paradigm, and instead take pride and satisfaction in the goods and services they provide, the handiwork of their friends and neighbors, and in helping make their communities more self-reliant. The growth of this direct-trade economy is accompanied by an emergence of several other exciting economic trends that diverge from business as usual. Self-Reliance Through DIY Projects As many MOTHER EARTH NEWS readers already know, you can break away from the 8-to-5 grind (or, these days, often the 7-to-7 grind) by limiting spending and producing more for yourself. Barter and Trade For What You Need One way you can get off the money train is to barter for some of the things you need. Megan E.
