    okay the idea here is I’m on my morning math for a smack.  I am after the ratios required for a passive egress walkway to surround/incorporate into a few of my lil house designs as in yes closer to true scale drawings to demonstrate the  spring about walkway…should tm that.  springing movement into living.

     

    you’ll love this,  it’s  32.16 ft or 9.80 meter (approx)  for a 20 foot 2 inch roughly section of 1 inch rise to one foot distance – a safe enough ratio for slope of a walkway for manual wheelchair decent/ascent.  and adequate space for  people going both ways to pull off and rest / wait.  five of these sections is around 11feet just under height of a “story” or level.  this allows for finished level ceilings of just about 9 feet in height or not being in the hottest zone of a room  and thus comfy in summer relatively speaking. 

     

    theis with superadobe type 18′ walls  is  about a 72 foot lot  by 208 ish or just over 1/3 acre by current sizing  of such and a two level 4200 square foot  cylender. ish.

  • i’m going to do a sudoku puzzle now.  i need a math snack.

  • snack… it’ SMACK  but since you asked for it. – spicy tuna roll2/3 c cooked sushi rice nori – spicy tuna: tunafish salad excepting half the mayo/miracle schlep add hot sauce and soy for that spicy asian slair.  make role cut into  six piece to 8 and nom on them.  the omega 3 of fish  will help aid the brain ;)   do not eat too too much too often as tuna can contain trace levels of mercury.  that would not be good for the brain…you’d be maddd! as in way huge cuckoo.  any time anymore with seafood consumption cilantro!  it helps eliminate heavy metals. (chinese parsley)

  • The Golden Mean is fascinating, and I wish I were smart enough to know. I often wonder if it works out that way because we’re in a spiral galaxy. It’s all so very perfect.

  • violin=golden rectangle, i see: 1 to 1.618  (physically demo’ed in my 1st welded piece, in ‘heavy metal’ photo album ;)  

    my fav number snack (we understand ‘snack’, not so much ‘smack’ or not so much, since we’re not building the house. yet ;) 3.14159…then i started looking for formulas, just to sauce up the snack, but not many will fit in this little cage/box. Planck’s will:  E=hv   not necessary for house building. the sunny-shoed one and i were just talking math. ok, maybe numberology ;)  

  • @sleekpunk - heh. if you get bored, see my comment :)  

  • @Bels_Kaylar - planks constant name recall butforget what it is

  • ratios and Horatios, we shall see what we sea, and here what we hear, remember storing ideas in public places can be like gambling,and showing your aces. Best of luck at both, and two dimensions are a nice beginning, but I must go now. MY Hat, did you see my hat?hmmmm what will I do now I hate when I lose my hat…. unless of course it is There! right where it sat. I guess that’s that. Toodles.

  • @Blue_Moon1 - :l lol names are names — the idea however is in some form of I cant swipe it lol
    I like the a&e horatio hornblower  c s forester things

  • i had no idea that along being a foodie or gourmand you designed homes too

  • i like this idea for walkway

    it will be aesthetically sweet too

  • @bonmots - lol, in namesake.

    funny point is its tucked in to be minimally unobtrusive (almost hidden) **I know you know the words  I’m just  conjuring explanation))

  • Ever do Killer Sudoku? I love ‘em ! xoxo

  • @Want2FitIn2Fat2Fit - :) never could suss those thingums

  • You are an inventor full of new ideas .

  • @fauquet - :) just become intrigued with comfort within economy that is how to make a  workable homeafter  meeting a wheelchair bound guy and remembering a zillion sprained ankles and realized a  sitting home is easier :D more often all my life.

  • @Want2FitIn2Fat2Fit - show me theway sometime – I’m possibly salvagable :)

  • Hey, if I can do them, ANYONEcan do them :)

  • This is pretty neat stuff ! Since you’re checking out ratios and junk, is there anything to the exact measurements Length, Width, Height, of a single box of cigarettes or a Star Trek Hand Phasor that’s supposed to be innately appealing to a human without knowing it’s contents or meaning ?

    I wondered if this had anything to do with something I explored years ago called the “Obsession Dimensions.”

    *Post Recommended !*

  • @Want2FitIn2Fat2Fit - :D get that pencil  movin like a magic brain wand.

  • @dw817 - I looked up a lot of stuff trying to  deal with the psycological impact of shapes and other symblisms for a post and while that didn’t yeild a scholarly post on why a peach reminds some of cute young girls genitaliawith a strong memory imprint  of scent to forever remember… I didnotice there is a lot of far more basic level living associating going on in our lives than the words we put to it.  wouldn’t you agree sometimes?

  • @starmanjones - A peach looks like a butt – I think. (At least I think so sometimes) But the box of cigarettes thingie is 8.5 centimeters height, 5 centimeters length, and 2 centimeters width.

    Curiously exploring this years ago I came across something called a, “Worry Stone.” [Image] In it, you are supposed to place it in your palm and rub your thumb across it and ‘magically’ your worries vanish.

    Truly at times I wouldn’t mind having one, but is it that simple ? Is there something deeply innate inside of us that needs something in our hands to – worry over or feel it alleviates us ? A box of cigarettes just might be the future of a worry stone from years ago I I was wondering.

    I remember Kirk once saying, “The cave is deep in our memory.” and while he wasn’t referring to the Obsession Box but Eden, yet is it possible it pertained to other things that so many humans share in common without having to learn the experience but it is innate to our nature ?

  • @dw817 - worry stone I’ve not heard of but I have heard of chinese wrry balls. sales offering ben wah balls are a naughty thing entirely different… ;) no, you can investigate that on your own. 

    I enjoyed looking up the symbolisms of colors and objects…  slang and what not. it’s intriguing thatall I see is how each of usviews symbolism different than another but a few circles are put on the map like occidental / oriental  and thuswhite of innocence in occidental thinking is good – a wedding dress of purity gifted/prized  or bad luck personified perhaps in oriental circles.  or reading how ireland champions wwilliam of orange…hence part of it’s three symbols in the flag…yet all I ever read is complex and the understanding of his reverance hasn’t yet occured.  i.e. I don’t get it, why him, many other englishmen did similar things beneficial for irish side and yet are infamous slimeballs hated throughout the history and land.  speaking of orange it’s metaphyiscal symbolism is fun..what color are you and all that.  there is a wealth of meaning… yet the dictionary forever changes. :D

    five times one point six one eight results in eight point zero nine – or, a asmokes pack is not to the golden ratio. yet  the powerful symbols of  ritual tobacco are part of life.  how to be bigger cooler stronger sophisticated  – it’s just as symbolic as tossing a felt pouch of cash coin.  yet we use paper and plastic more yetifsomeone tossed you a pouch of coins you’d feel far richer than someone handing you a gift visa.  you think?

  • @starmanjones - Had to look up that term, Ben wa, saw the V word hit CLOSE on the window !! OK, those strange orientals. *Grin*

    I’ve had such poor luck using a new credit card I have, it’s complex to figure out. Was trying to get myself a neat item on an Online game I’m playing but it’s not happening.

    Finally realized I need to get a Game Card. Will try for that later.

    As for the cigarettes, another idea I had was that they were somehow related to dragons. And that a person smoking a pipe or cigar or cigarette was in some way related to the fire breathing dragon.

    Certainly when you consider what is happening, while it might’ve seemed amusing at one time. I see someone smoke today, ultimately I do get some preconceived notions about where they’ve been and where they’re going.

    That could be the media influencing that.

  • @dw817 - thats somewhat anachronistictobacco use is a new world thing and dragons precolumbian.  my favorite thingis that firebreathing dragons arentreal life creatures but symbolic for afemale on her period.  sword use is requird oh haha- but it takes days o travails to slay
