Well, I'm finally going to make it this year -- the theme had a lot to do with it. Urban design is a personal interest, though I've no academic training for it. I've read several of Christopher Alexander's books, among many others, and I lived at Arcosanti about 7-1/2 years (cumulatively) as a structural welder, tour guide and librarian. My study of Paolo Soleri's concepts led me to write a primer on the principles of arcological design (http://www.wildapache.net/randhunt/arcology).
I understand there will be three areas where folks are encouraged to develop the theme of Metropolis. As a single camper, will I be able to find space in one of them? Are there any others here from Arcosanti?
Best wishes to you all!
