2007 - Focus Areas |
| a |
IWONE is a platform for individuals and groups concerned with
(alternative) phenomena grouped together under the more general theme
“Natural Energies”. This theme covers areas such as non-traditional
ways to affect water quality, plants, weather and eco-systems, as well
as non-traditional alternative energy sources. Historically we have had
a focus on ideas related to the Austrian naturalist Viktor Schauberger.
The idea is that the participants should hold speeches (around 30
minutes) in order to present new ideas or to inform about their actual
work or recent research. We also encourage discussions, and the
participants will get feedback through discussions and interaction with
the audience
We'll have some focus areas this year and will reserve some of the time
for papers within these areas. (We'll encourage papers on topics within
these areas, but will of course accept any interesting paper within the
broader range mentioned above.)
We will try to maintain a balance between speeches that cover
theoretical, experimental and practical results. We'll have a half-day
with more practical workshops, and at least one of the days is reserved
for the focus areas. We also intend to have a minor exhibition for
those who want to display a product or to demonstrate an experimental
set-up.
Alternative water
treatment
This focus area
covers alternative (non-chemcial) ways of treating water to improve its
quality for drinking, for plants
and agriculture, and for other uses. It covers e.g. indirect water
treatment, the effect of
vortexing and water motion on water quality, magnetic water treatment
and unconventional methods to measure
water quality.
Alternative water
flow
This area could cover guiding and self-organizing water flow (e.g.
Schauberger's energy bodies), temperature regualtion of water courses,
sloping logs, and other forms
of indirect river regulation. It could also cover areas like the
effects of interaction between
vegetation and river courses on the stability and evolution of the
river bed, and alternative means to
conduct water, e.g. double spiral pipes, fin pipes, Knossos pipes,
Schauberger kudu pipes etc.
Indirect influences
on plants and soil
This area covers alternative means to influence quality and growth on
plants. E.g. Schauberger's garden repulsator, paramagnetic towers
(Callahan), pyramid greenhouses,
and other alternative influcences on vegetation. Also treatment of
plants and soil with
alternatively treated water.
Other areas that we
typically cover
Alternative climate influencing
Alternative propulsion systems
Non-traditional alternative energy sources
