Densities of these realms can range from blissfully disengaged to strenuously integrated and in the interest of comprehensiveness, we strive for the latter.
Metakinesis is a term we use to refer to the complexity of this compressive action. The delineation of the meta (outer edge) for each project and the intensity of the kinetic force applied to the meta (constantly evolving spherical content) determine the project density. Densities of these realms can range from blissfully disengaged to strenuously integrated and in the interest of comprehensiveness, we strive for the latter.
To design a balanced work, we need to identify, analyze and assimilate multiple perspectives into a cohesive whole, however it can be challenging to monitor multiple perspectives simultaneously or even sequentially to ensure such a result. An evolving list of dualities is a valuable tool, which we use to prompt a balanced design process. This binary list serves as a reminder for different perceptual forms in order to keep the design process dynamic and diverse. Furthermore, digital tools can be used to link relationships in the meta together. This automation of implicitization can expand our capacity to integrate variables within a larger outer meta boundary, essentially an exchange of some mathematically locked relationships for the benefit of a broader reach.
The following essays are works in progress and represent an accumulation of random clustered relationships in the philosophy of a metakinetic sphere:
Bookend Polymaths2024
As the challenges of the modern world grow more complex, the perceptual powers of polymaths are no longer luxuries—they are necessities.
Formless Potential2020
Without such a representational tool we cannot effectively communicate the most meaningful purpose for algorithms in design.
Homology Algorithm2018This will result in a constant, slight modification of the design occurring endlessly in the pursuit of the latest measure of efficiency.
Architectural Plasticity 2015
As forests are populated by trees that have grown from seeds to synchronize with their precise location, we can populate a city by articulating different architectural seeds.
Efficient Bulk
2012
Resilience of any lifestyle is tied closely to the range of elements that can sustain it.
Gray - Dient Space
2010
The design is notable for its compact resolution of spatial multiplicity.
Fixed Wings2024
Aviation engineering borrows from nature’s archetypes—birds for stable, adaptable flight and fish for streamlined, rapid travel.
Geometrical Density2020
More sophisticated shapes seem to conceal their rationale due to the multivariate sources and evolutionary tuning.
Pursuing Hardship2017
Finite resources are available for any project so to achieve such results, compensation also inevitably becomes disassociated from effort.
Unconscious Momentum2015
Eventually this synchronicity becomes unconscious.
Forecast Regeneration
2011
Maintain an investment in local industrial processes and plan for failures.
Neural Fog2022
At this scale, it is impossible to even describe the rules of the game let alone the method to determine a winner.
Pinpoint Coordination
2019When comparing two designs, depending on the number of variables we evaluate, ideal coordination can appear to be different.
Inhabitation Sextant2017
Inhabitation logic should be nested so that we are solving for an individual, a city, and our spherical home dependently.
Synchronized Disintegration2015
Synchronization of disintegration down to the screws and maintenance thresholds is critical.
Measured Void
2011
How do we recognize the value of those who hold back on their building volume?
Reciprocal Design2022
Stress testing along the way would only show a complete failure of the system.
Growthless Imitation
2019Each plant will develop various discernable differences in form during growth with specific adaptations to its setting.
Perpetual Design2016
We need to elongate our design cycle and this requires a commitment to layers of maintained organization that can be passed on to subsequent generations.
Floating Bedrock2014
Industrialization has eliminated the need for most of us to think about it.
Interpretive Map
2011
Therefore the determination of mechanistic, scientific knowledge still rests on personal and fallible conclusions.
