‘Ocean City’ concept by Arup Biomimetics in Australia // Source: inhabitat.com

This article post a city vision. Yo.. just as we were all envisioning!

but why is it always motivated by fear? Why ferment your food waste because it is taking waste out of the municipal garbage which cost money and creates grnhouse gases which are killing us. How about bc is makes amazing fertilizer and I glow bc I have no food waste and eat delicious veggies in return. Fear works bc otherwise we are not listening… we are distracted.

Humm, Then let’s create distractions that create a vision’s intention. If the result or the by-product of the distraction is the abundant, healthy, free and cozy life in theory we would have resources and motivation to build this resilient and symbiotic system in which to inhabit.

For now just get your escape plan and your oxygen tank. Scare tactics are the norm.. perhaps for a good reason.  Without them we would be causght off guard – unprepared for the backlash of our limited vision. We on our way though!

I have a feeling there is already a “biomicratic” place below the tulmutuous seas… we just haven’t run a cross it yet.

Albert Einstein once said, “The only thing that interferes with my learning is my education.” Leonardo da Vinci exemplifies the pertinence of Einstein’s comment, for as an illegitimate child da Vinci was exempt from receiving a formal education and thus self-taught; learning much of what he knew from his personal observations of the natural world. The archetypal Renaissance man, while primarily renown as a painter, da Vinci was the forerunner of modern of science and the most prolific inventor the world has ever seen.

We will never know how much more advanced our society would be today had the greater majority of da Vinci’s prolific body of scientific observations and inventions been preserved and distributed for the benefit ofhumankind. However, four hundred and ninety years after his passing, some of da Vinci’s most ambitious ideas are having a new lease of life.

Documented in the Codex Atlanticus, which atlas-like in breadth collates da Vinci’s inventions from the period 1478 to 1519, one such idea      MORE : http://urbnfutr.theurbn.com/2011/07/building-the-bionic-city-the-ultimate-smart-city/
