python-geohash - Project Hosting on Google Code
Geohash is a string representation of two dimensional geometric coordinates. This technique is well described at Wikipedia Geohash.
Grid Square Code (JIS X 0410) is also a string representation of geometric coordinates. That grid code is utilized by Japan's government. NTT DoCoMo use modified version of that grid code.
Inhabitat » The Origami-Inspired Folding Bamboo House
Ming Tang’s beautiful origami-inspired Folded Bamboo Houses are intended to be used as temporary shelters in the aftermath of an earthquake. Brilliant in their simplicity, the geometric shelters are constructed from renewable materials and can be folded into a variety of structurally sound shapes. Their elegant design was recently honored as a notable mention in this year’s Re:Construct competition sponsored by San Francisco’s Urban Re:Vision
Communion With The Infinite - The Visual Music of the Shipibo tribe of the Amazon | Ayahuasca.com
(...)Underlying the intricate geometric patterns of great complexity displayed in the art of the Shipibo people is a concept of an all pervading magical reality which can challenge the Western linguistic heritage and rational mind.
One of the challenges for the Western mind is to acknowledge the relationship between the Shipibo designs and music. For the Shipibo can “listen” to a song or chant by looking at the designs, and inversely paint a pattern by listening to a song or music. As an astonishing demonstration of this I witnessed two Shipiba paint a large ceremonial ceramic pot known as a Mahuetá. The pot was nearly five feet high and had a diameter of about three feet, each of the Shipiba couldn’t see what the other was painting, yet both were whistling the same song, and when they had finished both sides of the complex geometric pattern were identical and matched each side perfectly.
