Answers about the environment and their future became difficult to gather. Spirituality substituting psychology, public architecture reflected the emerging need.
The Free Energy cult quickly spread and became one of many realizations of the hopes of a generation of wannabe scientists. At the Free Energy Place of Worship, a large finned sphere – harvesting cosmic energy out of thin air – was surrounded by booths of different sizes and shapes. Their openings were layed out in different orientations around a pentagonal grid offset five times.
Concentric void spheres around the middle of the sphere were meant to fence off various frequencies into the physical installation. Different combinations of curves echoing the harvesting sphere, along sharp edges and vertices, tried to make the best out of that potential.
