I instigate that this design
better serves as a model for
the global biovillage ie:

"Global Village" + "Biosphere" =
"Global Biovillage"!!!

In a sense it already exists and
this is a first effort at
globally congeling and rendering the fact
of it into a visible representation.

I suppose then the inherent complexity
is that it perhaps represents the
"Global Biostructure" of this planet (Earth)
So it is in essence a "living" entity or
living structure captured or rendered for
all to see and realize and respect and appreciate.

Not bad.  


28 Feb 2006 @ 15:31 by swanny : Thanks...
I suppose its a "start" of sorts
and on a relatively good foundation
of "Boullee" and Arcadia no less...
so thanks for that.
So now what....?
Well if buildings can talk and feel then
I suppose we must learn to communicate with
nature/the biostructure as well....
Went for a wonderful walk in the snow to the river yesterday.
Just had to get out of these walls...
It was so nice and freeing and yes I must have
spoken to the nature spirits though they are
asleep under the snow but the birds were wingin
the merry ways so it was most refreshing and rejuvinating.
So now I suppose filling in the details perhaps.

28 Feb 2006 @ 16:16 by rayon : Found the reference
On a site found today, there is a piece on the Holographic Brain. Apparently if a hologram is cut in half, there will be two WHOLE images each in half. Cut out, there will be more etc. and etc. It is believed that this how the brain works, AND more importantly, it is thought this how we achieve 3 dimensional thought. (Personally, I am not convinced, but it is an extremely interesting notion. Long ago there was a terrific hologram exhibition in Amsterdam I attended, thinking it was the very best thing in the whole of life!)Your image here does have holographic notions.

The reason for mentioning it here is because, good architects do draw instinctively in 3 dimensions to illustrate thoughts etc.

When seeing your updated 3 D bioworld above, the two came together. And, I worried over the last few days because of failing to mention that the superimposing of two rectangles, of course, was in section NOT in plan, very important distinction. And laughed to see the result tho, ho ho.  



28 Feb 2006 @ 16:29 by swanny : hee hee
Well it seems I'm thinking somehow in plan and section at the same time...
Not sure how or why...
But it does produce an interesting effect
sort of "stereo vision"...
and yet it is not an illusion as it is "architecture"
and it is real with I suppose some extrapolations or extensions
of heart or thought.  



28 Feb 2006 @ 16:42 by swanny : And then again...
And then again its more because
at the same time one is seeing "through"
as though one is looking at an xray
and a photo overlapped at the same time.
My my what's with that...???
Too much coffee perhaps
and yet I find it lovely and ....quite ???

Biovillage is the hope of the generations to come

We are a company of WestBengal,India. We also interested to do our project in this related field. Can you help us?  


4 Aug 2006 @ 15:49 by swanny : Hello
well if you're speaking to me siharan
I don't have much time nor money to spare
there is a group up north from me starting a foundation based
ecofarm... see http://www.pigeoncreek.ca
I'm sort of involved with them....
but if your country is passionate about this
Cuba has made some revolutionary steps in that sustainable agriculture direction.
stay in touch though...
and carry on
