* * * Workshop on Quantum Building * * *

in Oswego, NY, 22, 23, & 24 June 2007

Description: The Synergetics Collaborative's Fourth Annual Summer Workshop in Oswego will focus on "Quantum Building: The First 28 Most-Efficient-Minimum Geometrical Systems". The main workshop will be led by Thomas Miller who writes:


"The workshop is about learning to clone the four basic cloning grids that make the volume quanta (Fuller's term) the 'a' module, a-b module, mite and 't' module. We will concentrate on the first three. The grids become self-organizing which needs four abilities: self-stabilization, self-correction, self-regeneration and self-innovation. The overall idea is that these modules have a modular building system inside them and we will explore that system."

In addition, there will be artifact exhibit space for participants and a session for participants to discuss their work.
