Synergetics Collaborative (SNEC) presents its Fifth Annual * * * 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. When: Friday Reception 22 June 2006, 7 - 10PM ($15; pre-register to get directions) Saturday 23 June 2006, 8AM - 10PM (Registration: 8 AM) Sunday 24 June 2006, 8AM - 6PM Registration: Pre-registration is required!
