Great work, Winston! Can describe the high-level structure of each one (like, 6-strut icosa + 4 strut tet)? Let me know, I will add more details to the Wiki - http://TensegrityWiki.com
Good idea to add some information to the pictures, helps me as well to organise the information I gained while building these structures.
X-modules are named in your wiki 4-strut tensegrity, if I'm not wrong. When joined together in a 'mininal' fashion, the structure can't stand by itself, but can hang nicely straight down. I build a kind of switch with a series of x-modules and some additional tensors, once I found out more about its properties I will describe it some more.
The 6-strut tensegrities without more info (Crossed Over and Victory) are 6-strut tensegrities which are inspired (ripped off?) from Snelson's overview of 6 strut tensegrities, my attempt to rebuild the 'Olive' model.
Feel free to use any picture of tensegrities on this site for the wiki. I like the variety of written material you collected, I just missed more images/graphics.
