:D Perhaps not the most practical and instant sheltering solutions, but to keep up with theme of funky hi-fi tuning of basic hexathedral design.... :
What if... from hexathedral roof edges, continuing cables to ground, tent style, transparent or translucent fabric over thus made space, for gardening... and since there now is hexagonal "nest" space on roof... filling that with water container, and top of it, brightly colored savonius type turbine using centrifugal simple T pump to pump water from container beneath the hexathedral to the roof tank, and water let through a scavenged generator back to lower tank when electricity is needed ? (also plant watering with gravitation from here). MaxT On Fri, May 13, 2011 at 8:40 PM, ken winston caine < k...@mindbodyspiritjournal.com> wrote: > Beautiful, Dylan.
