Starting a superstructure is only the beginning. The real task is envisioning what it can do, how it will work, and who you need to work with. If you're not a member, consider joining now. If you are a member, be bold, jump in, and use the superstructure to start organizing for survival. Edit it, add to the vision, and make it real, online and off. And don't forget to rave.

  • Mission
  • What we can accomplish

    • The mission of this superstruct is to develop technology that will allow us to harness and store energy harvested from the myriad of vibrations all around us. Using exactly the same principles as ocean wave energy technologies did several decades ago, we could use microscopic machines to generate energy from the undulating motions of such phenomena as sound waves, brain waves and even light waves. Sound waves during a unifying, relief jam in a tropical area; brain waves from the strained thoughts of a world leader contemplating the superthreats; light waves of a sleazy technopolis’ neon illuminations. From the elusive harmonics around us we can garner much energy that will, alongside other alternative means for power, almost certainly put an end to the power struggle super threat.

  • How this superstruct works
    • People we will need: Nanotechnologists, kymatologists, fluid mechanics, musicians, light artists, audiovisual artists, philosophers and cymaticists.
  • Other information

    • With the advent of piezoelectric fabric and smart materials over a decade ago, revolutionary advancement has been made in terms of individual energy harvesting. A step forward will be to consider how we can harvest fequency waves as well as electrical "pollution" collectively. For example, vibration sheet energy collectors could be mounted on wall panels of performance spaces. When the orchestra practices or plays, the vibrations collected in the wall sheets could be funnelled to chargers. (Teslar’s ideas on oscillation creating frequencies/energy waves). Or the sound waves collected in high traffic urban centers or sporting events can be  harvested in collectors embedded in the ground. See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Eg1EeeP1XA for an example of a belt that converts sound waves into energy to power a shaver!
