Outstanding!

Regarding simultaneous/asimultaneous space:

I'm having a hard time understanding this relationship on an existential level given that the definition of the present (a singularity in time) is a mere construct of the human commonsense experience, which is of course invalidated by relativistic fact. Furthermore, any serious application of Heisenberg quantum fuzziness yields the perception of any such intersection in the causal nexus not only impossible, but the structure's "being" may in fact result in an invalidating of its very existence due to causal destructive intereference; since event 'A' cannot be perceived, structure 'B' which attempts to materialize event 'A' is therefore a logistical impossibility, though not a theoretical one. On a theoretical level therefore, while such a structure can exist, any physical manifestation reduces its existential value to zero. Even this posting - itself a supposed asimulateneous experience - could easily be simultaneous depending on the relativistic point in block time of the viewer/reader, which again renders it meaningless, sparing its secondary illustration: even a string of big words describing a cohesive concept can't stop this from looking like a building that fell over.

Impressive modeling, though.

Clearly, this is a contractor's nightmare.


...Sorry, that's all i have, but all this talk about simultaneous/asimulultaneous space is melting my mind.
yeah, by the way .......good job.

mane162: Thanks!

tom: Thanks!!

ivox3: I think a different type of construction documents would be designed to handle the building of this structure. I forsee a virtual building model that would use small PDA/palmtops and virtual-laser guided measuring/visualization tools that would triangulate, coordinate via gps and project the virtual structure exactly at scale on the site in wireframe. I also see the construction workers using some kind of low-cost visor that helps in aligning and positioning of various elements. There would in essence be no construction documents in paper form, the virtual building model would be the construction documents. I also see explanatory avi/quicktime video tutorial documents that could show a worker how to construct and build various components all from the visual visor of course!

Lets say this structure and the methods of actually constructing it would also be very experimental and most likely what I envision a more experimental construction-build design some 10 to 20 years from now.

Why? It simply must happen as the current methods hinder the fabrication of structures such as this in my opinion. Digital is definitely the future, and virtual is will become more and more.

You are referring to the objective nature of things which is valid, but no more valid than the subjective nature of things. It is our dual objective/subjective nature that allows to us to understand that the workings of the eye to construct a camera which in all actuality works like the eye.

Furthermore, any serious application of Heisenberg quantum fuzziness yields the perception of any such intersection in the causal nexus not only impossible, but the structure's "being" may in fact result in an invalidating of its very existence due to causal destructive intereference; since event 'A' cannot be perceived, structure 'B' which attempts to materialize event 'A' is therefore a logistical impossibility, though not a theoretical one.

I agree with you here, the relevance that this process is encapsulated in some kind of virtual form does mean that the experience is no longer asimultaneous because it is only one moment of a very organic and nonlinear interaction of physical and virtual spaces. But if we are to understand that in most of human efforts to understand complex processes there has always been the method of analysis of the operation. This analysis usually involves the viewing of an complex process through the lens of an isolated moment that exists outside of the process where it can be studied and examined. The process of studing and understanding the implications of simultneous and asimultaneous space is in the example an investigation on my part of an isolated moment.

I think the observation that this building looks like it fell over supports the idea that this concept is one that could be a case for reflecting our own life . Our world is a swirling mixture of unseen and seen processes. Those processes are what we see and what we do not see. We see our computers, our cell phones, our display boxes, but we do not see the information that is passed through this devices. The whole condition is a multi-layered organic system that is not a system of orthagonal indexes.

Impressive modeling, though.
