Project Proposals
Design development of alternative energy metasystems begins with the proposal of alternative systems, and initial efforts to represent and manipulate these designs heuristically in terms of models, drawings and other diagrams.
These project proposals are presented not as systems, but as metasystem frameworks that may contain a number of different possible systems and subsystems. The metasystem framework is considered important in context-defining for multiple systems development. Individual systems and subsystems can be developed in relation to such frameworks, and they exhibit modular variability such that they may be traded out for alternative systems or subsystems.
The principle in defining and presenting entire metasystem frameworks are manifold: 1. to provide alternative views of possible future worlds and the ranges of possibility within such worlds; 2. to work systematically on the metasystemic relationships and potential problems that arise with multiple systems development and integration; 3. to functionally contextualize the development of individual systems and sysems components in a relevant and appropriate manner.
The main objectives behind these metasystem project proposals would be the systematic extension of human ecosystems, their realignment along sustainable avenues of development, and the protection and extension of natural eco-system spaces.
I present these project designs in no particular order, and they cover a range of problem areas. I present no sense of hierarchy of systems and subsystems. This arrangement and organization of systems will be found in the areas on metasystem framework development. Their development represents an on-going effort on my part, and stem from designs that have been on the boards and in the note-books for many years now. Their reasons for placement in this web-site are primarily to provide a single integrated forum for their presentation, on-going design development, and for fostering any kind of dialogue and exchange of ideas relating to their improvement or application.
