They extend the growing season in cold climates and can allow you to grow varieties of plants you may not otherwise be able to grow in your area. They are perfect for starting seeds and can provide a nice little calming retreat. Large or small, building a greenhouse doesn’t have to break the bank. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13.
The Global Brain: Peter Russell (1983) Peter Russell’s award-winning video, based on a live audio-visual presentation in 1983. He explores the idea that the Earth is an integrated, self-regulating living organism and asks what function humanity might have for this planetary being. It suggests that we stand on the threshold of a major leap in evolution, as significant as the emergence of life itself, and the essence of this leap is inner spiritual evolution. Moreover, Peter Russell maintains that it is only through such a shift in consciousness that we will be able to manage successfully the global crisis now facing us.

Metodi e modelli matematici per le Applicazioni :: a.a. 2009-2010 Questa pagina raccoglie il materiale presentato nell'anno accademico 2009-2010 nell'ambito del corso Metodi e modelli matematici per le applicazioni. Il corso si svolge il martedì dalle 8:30 alle 12:30 in aula Pirani (mattatoio). Gli studenti della triennale possono frequentare il corso come altra attività formativa. L'obiettivo del corso è quello di introdurre l'utilizzo dei linguaggi di scripting all'interno dei CAD per realizzare modelli di architettura parametrica. Questa tecnica permette di automatizzare operazioni ripetitive, creare strumenti personalizzati di modellazione e di analisi, realizzare con precisione modelli complessi o creare modelli che dipendono dinamicamente da un insieme di parametri. Le competenze acqusite comprenderanno i primi rudimenti di programmazione in linguaggio RhinoScript (utilizzato da Rhinoceros), la capacità di descrivere una forma in modo matematicamente preciso e di codificare questa descrizione in un programma.

Euler’s graph formula | Three-Cornered Things Buckyballs are remarkable structures, and not just to mathematicians. In chemistry, a buckyball—more correctly, a spherical fullerene—is a molecule of carbon atoms forming a hollow spherical “shell.” Many sizes and configurations are possible (and stable!), but due to Carbon’s chemical properties they always have a few common characteristics: the faces are rings of 5 or 6 carbon atoms, and each carbon atom bonds to 3 others. The most commonly occurring one, buckminsterfullerene, is made with 60 carbon atoms in the shape of a soccer ball: These molecules were named after architect Richard Buckminster Fuller due to their resemblance to his famous geodesic domes. Wait, where’s the math? Mathematically, a fullerene is a convex polyhedron[] where all faces are either hexagons or pentagons (these need not be regular), and 3 faces/edges meet at each vertex. Large and unwieldy fullerenes also exist. Despite their variety of appearances, they all have one thing in common: Why is this true? Notes
Geodesic Dome Greenhouse Plans Diy Geodesic Dome Greenhouse Home Project Geodesic Dome Greenhouse Plans How To Build Your Dome Greenhouse Geodesic greenhouses are becoming an increasingly popular way of self sustainable green living, competing with traditional greenhouses for performance and strength. This in turn means better growth for vegetables. This is made up of 20 triangles with their sides bordering each other and closing up within an ideal sphere. Geodesic Dome Greenhouse Plans And Video Blueprint: (Launching Soon) Geodesic Dome Greenhouse Plans Start Up Geodesic Dome Greenhouse Basics While building a geodesic greenhouse is not rocket science, it is not as simple as building a chair or a table either. Even configurations like 2v, 4v or 6v are more difficult and require more parts to build a dome of the same size than odd configurations do. Remember that for an odd configuration you can choose between a height of 4/9th or 5/9th of the dome radius, giving you more or less ceiling room for the same base area.

La geometria diventa intermediaria tra armonia ed unità del mondo naturale. La sfera e la cupola racchiudono il massimo spazio col minimo impiego di materiale e conservano bene il calore interno offrendo poca superficie alle difficoltà climatiche esterne. Nonostante la sua leggerezza, la cupola può sopportare carichi molto elevati. Slides La persona che si trova all’interno di uno spazio sferico ha l’impressione di essere al centro delle cose e avverte chiaramente la presenza del rigore geometrico legato alla bellezza e alla perfezione presente nelle strutture a sezione aurea. Connessa allo studio del macrocosmo riflesso nel microcosmo, questa antica conoscenza da sempre appare e scompare. Leonardo Da Vinci Altezza al centro 2,40 m.

Build a Greenhouse: The Amazing, Low-cost, Multipurpose, Solar-heated Greenhouse/Guest House The idea behind my greenhouse/guest house concept is to build a greenhouse that has everything you need to live, and not a centimeter to waste. But you don’t have to use it as a greenhouse. It can be a guest house or an energy-efficient small home. The design is flexible, so you can incorporate whatever recycled materials you can find. Even if you buy some of the materials and hire a bit of help, you can build a greenhouse for about $3,800. If you plan to use the building as a greenhouse, use insulated, wood-framed windows that aren’t coated with low-e or solar film, because the coating limits heat gain. To make a guest house, include a loft large enough for a double bed upstairs — the warmest part of the building — for cozy winter nights. Because the greenhouse/guest house is so small, you shouldn’t need a building permit in most locations, but check with local authorities before you build your own greenhouse.

Do What You Love & The Money Will Follow. Here’s Why We live in a society where we are very used to doing something we don’t enjoy for long periods of our life so we can put food on our tables, partially see the world, have material objects etc. and so forth. According to a recent Gallup Survey, 70% of employed Americans either hate their jobs or are simply checked out of their work.[1] What does that say about how we ‘work?’ You can call it backwards or you can just observe it for what it is, the bottom line is we have the ability to do something our heart desires, we just have to make a few adjustments so we can make that happen. Before we go on, it’s not all about the money. All About Passion You may have heard me say it a number of times, I’m very passionate about other people’s passions and getting them to act on them. You may have heard the statement before “do what you love and the money will follow.” A Lifetime Of What You Don’t Enjoy You could say it’s a good enough reason depending on how you look at it. Taking Action “Do.” Sources:
Chapter 9: Mathematics -- Build a homemade geodesic dome A Geodesic Dome Some years ago I built a geodesic dome out of ½ inch galvanized steel electrical conduit, to serve as an aviary for chickens and small parrots. I wrote a computer program to calculate the proper lengths of steel tubing, and draw the diagram shown below: The dome is made from three different lengths of tubing. The ends of the tubes are smashed flat with a hammer, and then holes are drilled in the flat ends for a bolt to go through to connect up to six of the tubes together. For this project, something a little more modest in size is required. For the first attempt at a smaller dome, I used bamboo kebab skewers and gumdrops. You will need these materials for the gumdrop dome: 90 skewers 7¾ inches long 85 skewers 7½ inches long 80 skewers 6½ inches long 11 green gumdrops 15 orange gumdrops 50 red gumdrops Cellophane tape Click on photo for a larger picture Next, five medium sticks are stuck into the red gumdrops, and the pentagon is no longer flat.

warpplayer: QuickTime movie player with realtime warping and navigation Intended primarily for fulldome projection using a spherical mirror Also used as a navigable movie player Written by Paul Bourke, Ian Hooper, Evan Hallein Documentation by Paul Bourke Introduction "warpplayer" is a Mac OS-X application that takes a QuickTime movie and a description of how to distort each frame. In addition to the realtime warping, the application allows navigation while the movie is playing. Example The following example is targeted at fisheye movies, the original frame is taken from "Moonlight" by Andrew Quinn. Mesh data file structure The data file that describes the warping is simply a description of a regular mesh with texture coordinates. Input image projections supported are given below, the next release will additionally support stereoscopic versions of each of the above.1: planar image, perspective projection2: fisheye projection3: cylindrical projection4: spherical projection5: cubic map Input image types Keyboard control New: stereoscopic projection (March 2008)
