Don’t Know If I Can

By Jordan Ginsberg • Apr 15th, 2009 • Category: ModBlog


Well, this impressive. The ihung folks have been working with a gentleman named Ivan who conceived of this 25-foot-tall PVC-pipe dome structure, which is apparently based on some manner of sacred geometry forms, and have put it to use for suspension purposes. Rumor has it, they’ll be building an even bigger one this weekend at the Dallas SusCon. More photos, after the jump.

    That is just unfair. I don’t even have enough room in my ‘yard’ for a table, never mind a super awesome suspension dome. Very nice construction and curious to see what sort of things can be done with it.

    ps: Ivan is a genius. If you couldn’t tell by that fascinating structure that doubled as a jungle gym. =]

    #2- I’m sure the computer you’re typing on is made of tree bark, leaves, and feces…not non-renewable materials, right? Stop hating.

    It’s great to see pictures of this. We got to hang out with Dave K and some of the other folks involved a few weeks back at a pretty awesome BBQ, and heard them talking about this! Great job!

    Oh Yeah
    I’d definitely copy his idea if I had somewhere to put it in

    awesome! I`d love to see more of this!

    This is beautiful. I feel inspired and happy that suspension is only evolving more and more and that spiritual/ universal themes are integral in such examples. I think its time for the anti-gravity psysuspension.
