It is probably a concept error to think in Bulkheads, modules, platform sizes etc…We need to get familiar with the idea that a oceanic city will be a city after all – with all kind of “designs” and “structures” and functions coming together as a “cluster of human activity”. It is neither a “design contest” nor a quest for a “fit for all solution”. There is no need for a discussion “either this or that” – because the simple answer is “all of it”. No “designer” will make the decisions on what to build – the real estate buyer and finance market will. The starting point will be just there where we are now in floating structure building – applying concrete honeycomb and shell building just more of it just scaling it up. A good fiction novel that will be taken a “visionary prediction” in a couple of decades makes a precise investigation what is “out there already” and then does a “not very far fetched” projection where this will lead to – check the Novels of Jules Verne…Functional Submarines, underwater Salvage (Simon Lake) the Siebe dive helmet – all this was already a reality when Captain Nemo was projected as a “Sify vision”. Jules Verne was aware of that – the average public of his time was not – they considered it “phantastic”.
Floating concrete honeycomb and shell structures in City Block size with shopping malls inside are already floating as we speak (Nkossa, Monaco, etc…) VENICE has already 1500 years of successful history of a “waterbased society” brokering power politics of surrounding land nations and dominating sea trade. Offshoring of money, assets, business headquarters and lifes to get out of jurisdiction is going on on large scale in the Megayacht Industry.
Nothing of what the future brings will come “invented out of thin air” it will be a logical evolutionary step of what is here today already – on a oceanic waterplanet with a population growth of 1 billion per decade ocean colonization will not come as a “exotic idea of a couple of dreamers” it will come as a development need for shore cities running out of real estate space. As a quest for “interference free space” to develop business ventures.
I recently came across your blog and have been reading along. I thought I would leave my first comment. I don't know what to say except that I have enjoyed reading. Nice blog. I will keep visiting this blog very often. Refrigerator Repair Denton
When integrating payment systems, many people opt for a payment gateway and a payment processor. This gives me the opportunity to improve my system and make it faster for my clients, which is crucial. Due to the fact that the payment system is one of the most crucial systems in every product and demands a specific level of security and accountability, I was able to optimize the system and increase its performance in part thanks to https://corefy.com/blog/payment-gateway-vs-payment-processor-is-it-the-same. As a result, I believe that we will all demand it as it is one of the most crucial systems in every product and necessitates a particular degree of security and accountability. On the market, you can be more competitive.
