Arcology / Arcology Wiki This is a wiki for the Arcology community, hosted by the Globalvillages community. Globalvillages is part of the network Minciu Sodas ("Thought Garden") To learn more about Arcology go to http://groups.yahoo.com/group/arcology/ or just browse this wiki!

NEEDS RESTRUCTURATION, PAGES AND LINKS LOST Table of ContentsPlease contribute by editing and correcting spelling - and start to identify "chapters" out of this (provisional) Table of Contents. When we know what chapters are to be used - and how we call them - we can create chapter links in the navigation sidebar for this PmWiki/WikiGroup. Put in stuff that you find interesting to develop together and place it on the apt spot in the outline.
DISCUSSION:
regarding the issue of renewable energy in the TOC There are many places on the internet that provide excellent information on PV or whatever or that have extensive links. Why would the Arcology community want to duplicate such data? Is not the challenge to develop energy, food and water production systems that are building integrated; that are solutions for "living structures" that provide Arcologies that apply "Closed Ecological Life Support" methods to our habitat. This is fundamentally different from conventional agriculture and gardening in that plants are grown intensively and continuously within the controlled environment. This calls for a transparent building envelope - to my knowledge this is a new innovation that has not yet been implemented (except perhaps badly by Biosphere II and a few small scale projects to some limited degree) and I would expect that the Arcology community might take up such a challange. - Solaroofguy
I would agree in reducing the chapters in the arcology toolbox on the patterns that are more specific to the arcology theme. I think of a lot of specifics:
Great to see how this works! It would appear better to have the subheading in my chapters on their own pages leaving only
While there is much on these topics on the web, it seems to me that some basics with links could be helpful to those not familiar with these techniques. Many people think milk comes fron cartons and meat fron a refridgerated case. Also this topic gave me something to practice with!! - Hank I think the universe of renewable energy could well open up through the "entrance gate" of learning about their specific texture in the arcology context. insofar I welcome the change wholeheartedly. FranzNahrada Hank, Franz, Rick - this is fantastic! I look forward to synergy with your efforts and networks. AndriusKulikauskas
