| Geodesic Temple is one of the most ambitious projects attempted by Disorient in its 11 years of existence, yet we have never been in a better position to successfully transform this idea into reality. One of the strengths of Disorient is its community and the tight connections that bind its members. Its base of veteran burners has welcomed newcomers for the past decade, many of which are now part of the core group of DOers (Disorienters). Disorient is always open and welcoming to newbies. 230 DOers camped at Disorient in 2010 and about 1,500 more since its inception. Geodesic Temple is a new direction for Disorient. We are confident that we can build this piece thanks to our dedicated workforce of literally 100s of on-Playa DOers.<BR> | | Geodesic Temple is a community of tRAVElers exploring the sacred dimension in sculpture.<BR> |

| [[File:GeoTem06pers01.jpg|330px]] [[File:GeoTem06isometry01.jpg|330px]] [[File:GeoTem06pers03.jpg|330px]]<BR> | | Geodesic Temple (GeoTem) is a modular [[System_of_Geodesic_Temple|system]] that uses the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Octahedron octahedron] as a building block to create self-supporting structures. The octahedron, a geodesic polyhedron, is one of the five platonic solids. It has been used through the ages in sacred geometry and spiritual architecture.<BR> |

|
| ==PROJECT OVERVIEW==
| | Geodesic Temple is an expression of the Disorient philosophy: individual cells work together to create the ever-evolving landscape of life.<BR> |
| Geodesic Temple is founded on an ideology of the complexity inherent in community. Each individual maintains his or her structure yet uniquely contributes as the parts come together harmoniously and assemble the Temple. Without one piece the end result will be drastically different. Disorient's community reflects this and embodies the spirit of Burning Man. | |
|
| |
|
| Every stage of this project will bring minds and bodies together. The individual octahera require not only assembly on the microscopic level, but supervision on the macroscopic level as the structure depends on conformity to one balanced composition. Interactivity is crucial at every level.
| | [[Geodesic Temple Library|Explore our collection of Temples]] and [[System_of_Geodesic_Temple|understand how they are made]].<BR> |
|
| |
|
| This is Disorient's metaphor for our philosophy. Working together to accomplish something completely unique on the massive scale that reflects each individual that took part. It is a universe that depends on the connections between individuals but may be admired for its strength and stature from afar.

| The structure itself will seem to float above the playa surface, illuminated at each octahedron and pulsing to the beat of the dust. The base will stretch into the horizon and appear to crystalize the vibrance of life that emerges every year. The key will be simplicity - one element that builds upon itself into infinitely diverse forms. It is visually simple from some angles, however, when examined further reveals the kaleidascope of possibilities that changes as often as the illuminations shift. <BR>

| ==PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION==
| | {{:Geodesic_Temple_footer_nav}} |
| Geodesic Temple ([[Geodesic_Temple#GeoTem06|GeoTem06]]) is a modular, self-supported, burnable structure made of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Octahedron octahedrons], a regular polyhedron with 8 identical equilateral triangular faces which is also a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geodesic geodesic] volume and a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Platonic_solid platonic solid]. The octahedron is used as building block to create a self-supporting structure meaning that the resulting architecture does not have a frame onto which other elements such as facades are added. In that sense, it is about transparence and truth. All octahedrons have similar sizes and are made of 2x4 struts.
| |
| The choice of using the octahedron as the basic module of Geodesic Temple was dictated by the physical qualities of the octahedron.
| |
| | |
| Modularity is one of the core principles of Disorient as expressed in the Disorient Model ( http://wiki.disorient.info/index.php?title=Disorient_Model ). The radically modular Geodesic Temple is no exception. It is exclusively composed of 144 octahedrons, all similar. Each octahedron is made of 24 identical 2x4 struts.
| |
| | |
| Structural integrity. The octahedron is the second strongest platonic solid after the tetrahedron. Additionally, the way the design of the structure organizes octahedrons in interlocked closed loops reinforces the structural integrity of the entire piece.
| |
| | |
| Connectors. Strong, burnable. "No connector is the best connector." (needs website reference)
| |
| | |
| Skin. Sides of octahedrons can be partially or completely skinned individually. Skinning the structure with plywood would provide additional shade and help with the burn but will need to be taken into account when calculating the wind resistance of the sculpture.
| |
| | |
| Geodesic Temple should not be climbed on. It provides shade and possibly beats to the community.
| |
| | |
| ==FABRICATION==
| |
| From the experience we have gained assembling our own geodesic domes and our expertise with large-scale inflatable structures we understand that precision is crucial at every stage of the building process when putting together large geodesic structures as any mistake will amplify down the line if not corrected immediately.
| |
| | |
| Following [http://connectors.sphericalgeodesicstructures.com/ this] example of wood compound angle connection both ends of each 2x4 strut are cut at an angle so they fit tightly together when the octahedron is assembled. Having the 2x4 struts cut before they are delivered to the Playa (need quotes from wood providers) would help us reach a satisfying level of accuracy and reduce on-Playa production time.
| |
| | |
| On Playa we will have cells (cells are teams in Disorient jargon http://wiki.disorient.info/index.php?title=Disorient_Model ) dedicated to specific parts of the assembly process. The highly repetitive aspect of this construction permits members of each cell to become experts at the specific tasks that they perform which translates into a more accurate fabrication and a safer structure.
| |
| | |
| The different steps of on-Playa assembly are performed in parallel by several cells.<BR>
| |
| - Octahedron Assembly Cell creates octahedrons by connecting 2x4s together. Connect the ends of the struts that are precut at an angle to fit tightly together. Repeat the process until the octahedron is complete. A jig is used for this step to assure that all octahedrons are created equal. Galvanized strapping is used for reinforcement where needed. Some members of this cell are responsible for quality control. Octahedrons that will not comply to the design will either be corrected or, if beyond correction, used in related projects which require a lower level of accuracy such as Disorient camp frontage or Disorient mutant vehicle transformation.<BR>
| |
| - Octahedron Connecting Cell creates "C" modules by connecting octahedrons together on the ground. Two types of C modules are created: "regular" C uses 3 octahedrons, "long" C uses 5 octahedrons. Long C modules are used only at the base of the structure. The 16 octahedrons on which the structure rests are part of 8 long C modules. Both types of C modules can be assembled on their flat side on the ground by a crew of 6-8 using 6' ladders.<BR>
| |
| - GeoTem Assembly Cell. Specializes in connecting C modules together. After creating 4 [[Geodesic_Temple#GeoTem04|GeoTem04]] by connecting two long C modules together with one C module this cell will connect the top octahedrons of the existing structure together with C modules. This task will be repeated many times until the entire structure is complete.
| |
| | |
| ==LIGHTING==
| |
| Options being considered:<BR>
| |
| 1. Elements of New Leo Sign (2010) mounted on the struts. Color: Orange.<BR>
| |
| 2. Sequenced LED fixtures (ColorBlast type) installed inside and outside the structure. Color: Pornj (pink and orange), Disorient's color.<BR>
| |
| 3. Sequenced LED modules mounted on each outside octahedron connector.<BR>
| |
| 4. Strobe light inside each octahedron.
| |
| | |
| ==INTERACTIVITY==
| |
| Some octahedrons are left free-standing and can be rolled around by participants. There is no climbing on the main structure.
| |
| | |
| ==BURN==
| |
| We understand that the 2x4 struts as shown on [[Geodesic_Temple#GeoTem06|GeoTem06]] are too far apart for the fire to start and propagate well and we can think of two solutions to remedy this problem.<BR>
| |
| 1. Add combustible material such as hemp bags 3/4 filled with hay inside the octahedrons located in the lower part of the structure (show on sketch combustible material placement throughout the structure).<BR>
| |
| 2. Reduce the length of the basic 2x4 strut from 8 feet to 6 or 4 feet. The design concept would remain the same but the resulting structure would have more octahedrons, more levels and more wood in general to reach the same dimensions (make sketch showing structure made with octahedrons using 4' and 6' 2x4s).<BR>
| |
| We welcome advice from Burning Man experts.

| - Interactivity: some elements are left free-standing on the ground so they can be moved/rolled by anyone to reconfigure the piece.<BR>
| |
| - Skin: sides can be (partially) skinned individually. Skinning the structure would help with shade, burn and lighting but would create more resistance to wind which is a problem on the playa. Maybe only lower parts of the structure are skinned?<BR>

| - Camp frontage and Dex transformation uses same polyhedron as Geodesic Temple.<BR>
