My initial thought on this subject is that which I have considered for 
some time - equilibrium.  The world - especially nature revolves around 
it, from cycles of weather, economy, love, war and religion.  Art and 
technology were once thought to be diametrically opposed - indeed to 
the extent that many schools forbade mixing of subjects across these 
disciplines.

Harmony in existence stems from a system in which equilibrium is 
maintained, including fairness and rationality.  For our physical 
surrounding to be harmonious, pleasing and stress free, they must be in 
equilibrium across the techno/art boundary and across the human 
inward/outward boundary.

I like your ideas - but I am not an mechanical engineer - I am a 
thinker and an artistic scientist.  Is your society conveining 
electronically as I can't make it to the USA?
