Comments[edit]

Well, If Mr. Zuk had wrote about Kinetic Architecture since 1970, It does not mean he was wide known world wide and the fact I keep acknowledging that I did created the design concept is because it happened in 1989 not in english language but in Spanish " Arquitectura Kinetica". I understand sometimes history claims who was the creator first but the fact here is that globalized information or research before the internet, made many to create things that might had been created before, and never with a bad intention. In my case I highly say that I created the design concept of Kinetic Architecture under the geographical circumstances and cultural aspects that can not be forgotten as true facts on my research and creation of the design concept "Kinetic Architecture" or " Arquitectura Kinetica" 1989. Even if you google Kinetic Architecture, you will never find Mr. Zuk as writer on kinetic Architecture, just you are the only person who found him on rare books. I am not saying that Mr. Zuk is not important as I just found he taught at Virginia University and died in 1995. If he were alive, I am sure he would bring a great taught on this issue. He used the title Kinetic Architecture but was he really the first one to use the title? Would you criticize him of Mr.Clark for the title on the book?

I will keep defending my creation all over the world and I am sure my definition still a true one. Remember that you have been criticized way back by others when you tried to wrote the definition in wikipedia.

My definition is clear for everyone and I have research on that highly. I am on an experimental project that will revolutionize the concept because of its complex systems and can not be claimed by anyone. A friend in Switzerland, he does NASA research and he said: " it sounds very interesting, having a interior that can change from day to day is definitely adding another dimension to architecture. Goodluck with your project." Jerome N.

Now, You said that moving structures have been around for centuries, YES it is, but the issue here is that Kinetic Architecture or Arquitectura Kinetica were titles unkwon in those centuries, those were called inventions, machinery that moves,etc. So, you can not say that the title was known for centuries because is not supported by any doc you ready have.

Instead of trying to DELETE the concept, try to be more supported on what is current on that definition. Again, "Arquitectura Kinetica" was created in Spanish language since 1989 when I did it. If you find someone who might claim same in Spanish, then bring it here.


Decent version of entry persistenly reverted to unsourced, grammatically mangled version by editor who claims to have "invented" kinetic architecture. Hairhorn (talk) 23:37, 23 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]



I ask Respectfully to user Hairhorn to stop deleting my concept on Kinetic Architecture. His definition is out of scope. I did created the design concept in 1989 which was originally in spanish "Arquitectura Kinetica". I am not saying that I invented Kinetic Architecture, I said I was the first person in the world to create the concept not that there were not examples of moving objects applied to architecture, but I was the first person to baptize the concept since 1989. Please respect that and do not keep saying incoherent things. One of the editors who corrected you many months ago said that your concept had nosense, please read one of those at the View History of the Kinetic Architecture.Jose Leonidas Mejia A.

How can it be claimed that Kinetic Architecture was invented in 1989? Rectractable roofs on sports stadia were in use before then. Rotating observatory domes with opening slits have been in existence for centuries. The complete gable roof of the Great Melbourne Telescope House of 1868-9 could be rolled on 8 wheels for its whole length. It still exists in good condition at Melbourne Observatory, and is now under the control of the Royal Botanic Gardens of Melbourne, Australia.

Kinetic Open Storage[edit]

Need to disambiguate Kinetic architecture with respect to the Seagate Technology Kinetic Open Storage architecture. See extant Object storage wikipedia article. 66.155.23.67 (talk) 11:13, 29 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
