I really didn't think they would try this. I really underestimated how willing the leadership wants to waste money, when trying to build the first hive city in the middle of the dessert.
Interesting, but also the stuff of dystopian nightmare. Ohh, your social credit score dropped 10pts yesterday? Now you're restricted to zone'3 until further notice. The entire place could be seen as a giant prison for a slave culture, for what is a religious theocracy.
The Oxagon port city and the marina and the Sindalah resort are the farthest along because they will make the most immediate return of cash flow. There is the NEOM City, already build for the construction crews and their families. The Line is the most iconic element of NEOM and the most imaginative but appears to be back burner as far as actual construction. All they show is excavations for the foundations and infrastructure. I’d assume Module 43 will be a replicable module to test out the concepts for the whole Line.
We still don't have any clue about how the Line might actually look like ! All we have is piling work, and futuristic renderings that look like out of a video game, but those are so drastically different from each other that they don't look like real projects. Did they choose to keep the blueprints secret, or are they actually not so advanced on the conception work ?
@@muffin_lorde9002 The people behind it are salesmen who carefully selected the prettiest views of what it's "supposed to be". But from what they say it's supposed to be, to what it actually will be, there are missing elements: architect's plans and engineer's plans. Being myself an engineer in buildings, I know how a mature plan looks like, and what's in those videos is far from it, it doesn't look pragmatic, we don't see hallways and stairs and most stuff that make real buildings. They show short glimpses of artistic designs, but with no consistency between them, and no big picture in which we would see how those mismatched puzzle pieces are supposed to fit together in the line. All that makes me feel like it is fake advertising and that the real thing when completed might be quite disappointing.
I just watched a 44 minutes documentary on Discovery UK channel on RUclips, made in July 2023. The final words of Bin Salman himself were: "I can promise you that's gonna be something new and creative. But what is it ? It's unknown, we'll see." How are they building foundations when they don't even know what's the project ? In the whole documentary they showed that it was an experimental work, they're still studying their concept of the city. They're talking of "visions of the future", not of the design of a project that is already in the construction phase. In the building industry, the field work never start before the project is in an advanced design phase. They must know exactly the structure of the building and make precise calculations in order to determine where to put the foundations and their size. In the current development of the line, I am wondering what they'll do once they finished the design and find out the built foundations aren't strong enough...
I imagine they'd have HEPA filters everywhere like most modern structures... People have learned much about outbreaks except those who don't believe in them or that masks work. Alas... Happy 2023 Tridemic!
Ok no one else sees that this could be a prison for slaves and a playground for wealthy? Try escaping - no transportation and your in the middle of the desert. For a country known for sex trafficking- this is heaven for those degrading women and children and hell for those being degraded.
The artists depictions of Neom are unrealistic. There’s too much glare, hard surfaces, and right angles in the architecture. What is needed for a comfortable city is rounded walls, arched bridges, and a softer look about things. Make it more organic with beautiful flowers and plants in many places. Also, the use of earthen materials will be very important for the future because of low energy cost of manufacture and maintenance. Rammed earth adobe blocks are just one example of the possibilities. Geopolymers are another. Sustainable and resilient design depends on an economy based upon local resources for local purposes, and that economy will depend on the quality of mutually supporting systems working together. Complex design is where the real power comes from. The mirrored surface that’s presented by the artists is a gigantic wind sail. making that surface look faceted is a very important part of making the appearance. More interesting to people. The ability to move those facets could be an asset for mitigating wind problems.
first, nothing shown here is actual work, it's all agi. the desert sand moving exercise is real, very little of anything else is actual real images and progress. how? end to end in 20 mins? how? 170kms is 100 miles, how? end to end in 20 mins? trains would have to run at over 300 miles per hour to go end to end in 20 mins, and that's without stopping. as for building it, how? how does this get built when the technology required to build it and make it a reality doesn't exist. with what? seriously, if the entire globe concentrated all the natural resources just to make this feasible, there are nearly enough resources to build two horizontal skyscrapers 80 stories high and 100 miles long? is mbs going to kill all the engineers he was on payroll when they finally tell him he's nuts? not a single blue print has been produced, not a single block of anything has been laid. sure, there are a bunch of dozers and dump trucks moving sand, but that's just a stupid trick to suck in foreign investment. this will never ever see the light of day
Looks like this project is well underway now... will it be a success?
Inshallah
Yes, we believe in the KSA government and our great citizens 🇸🇦💚
No...😂😂😂 Will just be another Arab Vanity Project... They haven't even finished the Jeddah Tower
@@ArabianQuirkSA Waste of oil money. Shahaba's descendants are real mad nowadays

What is Dubai in UAE
They have a beautiful vision for the future
Nah first hive cities was 1800s and 1900s London
I don't think it'll be a waste if it turns out good tho

Once more missing coverage of negative aspects :(
This video feels like a commercial rather than actually informative
Just because it didn’t spread false propaganda like you want

no it's because they are a lot less to fucking build since they aren't two 180km long skyscrapers with internal "buildings" between them
Insane it is 👍🏾

they don't keep it secret the video showing how it is supposed to look is launched by the people behind the project, do your homework buddy

In my opinion they started the foundations in order to show that something in going on, for advertising purpose. But Something is not The thing.
@@jeremygrecte 🤦🏻♂️
Just another pipe dream
Building a playground for the rich, a house of slavery for everyone else.
Imagine a viral outbreak in there.

Another Arab Vanity Project!
I have one word- Babel.
Great! now all we need is basic human rights and separation of religion and state 👌
Human rights will improve overtime but their religion isn't going anywhere, Allah will always be the foundation of the Saudi people

Don't worry about our deeply rooted Islamic foundation in our Islamic countries. That will never change.

the project looks good but it fails
Looks economically unsustainable. There is nothing 'green' in polluting desert with concrete either
