Subject: Saraceno's Aerocene
Longtime readers will be familiar with starchitect Tomas Saraceno's compelling visions and memes in AWE and Aerotecture. He has collaborated with TUDelft, and even briefly dabbled in Mothra studies, and has hit on a very cool linguistic coinage, "Aerocene", to suggest a new age of human sky colonization, aka "living-in-the-sky". We can also take Aerocene a bit formally to mean a longer evolutionary history of advanced biological flight, as "-cene" means ~recent~ in geological time.

Anyway, here's Saraceno's current quasi-movement around the idea of drifting solar balloons, somewhat after Bucky Fuller's famous floating city concept, with echoes of Panamarenko whimsey, and some actual aero-hacking, if still scant practicality-

Newt replies perceptively to AWE review article linked below, but leaves no contact info. May he find what he seeks-

Newt says:
I have done considerable thinking along these lines. I think that watersport kites should be used initially, thus avoiding much trial and error that is history. Developers should concentrate on cross wind performance, which is the best point of sail for these kites, and allows very high power generation for almost the entire path. I see the ground installation as using ski lift cable technology, to extract high power from a single DC generator. Many more kites, than in above picture, can fly the same crosswind narrow oval path, in unison, generating higher power. I am an experienced engineer and inventor, who would like to work in this area."

Subject: Classic 1996 Ship Kite Paper
Perhaps JoeF already logged this 1996 paper, but I don't recall seeing it before. Experts will recognize legendary authors (Roeseler, Culp, Schmidt, etc.). Culp revived kitesailing in modern times, Roeseler, father and son, invented kitesurfing, AYRS was long the geek forum of kite- and speed-sailing. This is the paper that set KiteShip (and perhaps SkySails) in motion. Many deep insights as ignored or rediscovered today.

Subject: Mechanical Metamaterial Kitematter
Mechanical Metamaterials is a hot new field, barely a decade old. Kite-based mechanical metamaterial concepts have been shared here for about five years. Conceptual and experimental progress is incredibly fast, a new material science revolution is underway. Of the hundreds of foundational papers and postings, this survey of the exploding mechanical metamaterial field is most excellent. The AWE metamaterial paradigm matches to general progress reviewed here. Expect fresh kite-specific news soon-

Seeing that JoeF's site caught Amartya's attention, as evidenced by a comment response, explaining anachronisms of old and new sources-

"we invite you to look over the job opportunities in kite energy or airborne wind energy. http://energykitesystems.net..."

Trending in South Asia; the right stuff.

Jobs? Just wait, five million or so, in twenty years, if trends hold :)
