I’m giving a day-long, hands-on* sacred geometry workshop on Saturday, July 28, 2012, from 10AM-4PM, at Integrated Healing Arts, 4153 El Camino Way, Palo Alto, CA (NOTE NEW VENUE!), sponsored by the Foundation for Mind-Being Research (FMBR). The workshop follows an introductory talk for FMBR the previous (Friday) evening Unity Community Church, in the Y.E.S. room, 3391 Middlefield Road, Palo Alto, CA at 7:00 PM.) Cost is on a sliding scale from $25-$75 based on need. Pre-registration is required. There is always plenty of opportunity for individual Q&A, and exploring favorite geometries (and their metaphysical foundations) in an informal atmosphere. Please contact Bruce via GeometryCode.com to register. I’m always happy to phone or Skype with even more details. Please bring a geometer’s compass, straight-edge, scissors and cellophane tape; I will supply 2D and 3D handouts including platonic solid fold-up patterns, plus LOTS of visual multimedia imagery, animation and more, along with plenty of theory on the mystical underpinnings of sacred geometry! :-) To familiarize yourself with related material on the subject, you might want to explore titles in this collection: the GeometryCode Amazon aStore. Here is a full resolution printable flyer for the event.

Question from a form submission:

Q. I am a bit curious about geometry and was wondering if the workshop would be an appropriate place to learn more.
A. Definitely! I’ll be doing (and teaching) lots of hands-on demos of the classic Geometric constructions with compass and straightedge that folks like DaVinci, Plato, Pythagoras and more would likely have done, as well as LOTS of multimedia (books, animations, videos, stereograms, and more) demonstrating geometric principles that rarely (if ever) get covered in ordinary school curricula, blended with the mystical symbolism that the masters of both contemporary and ancient times revered and pondered. I have a flyer here that gives more examples and details, but feel free to ask me to cover specific topics since with a small group it’s easy to tailor it to the needs of those attending. Thanks for asking! :-) Please let me know ASAP if you’re interested and want to pre-register; also if you’d like an online class, let me know that too! :-)

I’m giving a day-long, hands-on* sacred geometry workshop from 10AM-5PM this Summer 2012 (date TBA; rescheduled from May 20), here at our home in Castle Rock, Colorado. We’re about 30-60 minutes south of Denver, depending on what part of the metropolitan area you might be driving from. Cost is on a sliding scale from $25-$75 based on need. Please pre-register (required) due to limited space around our dining room table! :-) Since I limit the enrollment to a small handful, there is plenty of opportunity for individual Q&A, and exploring favorite geometries (and their metaphysical foundations) in an informal atmosphere. I always have days worth of material to cover if there’s interest, so no worries about that, either! :-) Please contact Bruce via GeometryCode.com to register. I’ll be happy to phone or Skype with even more details.

Here is a full resolution printable flyer for the event.

Please let me know ASAP if you’re interested, and which weekend dates work for you; also if you’d like an online class, let me know that too! :-)

I will be a Presenter at the 2012 Froebel USA Conference, giving a Keynote (multimedia) presentation on The Geometry of Interconnectedness and Inclusion; here is a link to register. My presentation will be a 1-hour audiovisual talk among other presentations that weekend (schedule TBA) held at the South San Francisco Conference Center, SF, Calif. (map). I’m very much looking forward to this event (thanks to Scott Bultman for the invitation!) and will include some new imagery and insights not given publicly before in prior presentations.

Synchronistically, I was just talking with some neighbors yesterday about the Great Pyramid (at Giza, Egypt) and it reminded me of a speech I gave in a Rhetoric class at UC Davis (Calif.) where I referred to the Transamerica Pyramid, shown in the center of the skyline in the photo above. This latter pyramid is taller, but is dwarfed by the acreage and bulk of it’s Egyptian inspiration.
