Human Scale and ‘its’ Intellect

Can architecture be the binding force between such entities including (1)‘itself’, (2)the human and (3)its surroundings? What occurs if one of the three no longer exist and become extinct? Does structure exist to further enhance this relationship or does it just serve as an equal playing ground for these ‘species’ to work together on? These are all questions in which I have asked myself throughout the course of these past two weeks to further explore the meaning of what has become of all of the readings and films we have seen.

To what degree can architecture effect and influence life, its consequences, and the processes of life (learning when a baby, adapting in mid life, and growing older). If the surroundings are difficult to live in, it may make the elderly think that they are no longer adaptive to what is around them and do no have a reason to continue to live. However, we can create architecture that can influential enough to grasp developmental issue to create an individual in that they are well rounded in all categories (physical, social, intellectual, etc.) Or can we? To what degree can we challenge ‘architecture’ as it is perceived today to create the ideal.

Furthermore, human behavior is a definite link to its surroundings. What is the effect of the environment on the user, ‘itself’/human? To be more general about the ‘species’, the linkage may be the (1)humans perceptions, how you perceive the world and how it looks back at you. In turn (2)intellect and (3)sensations arise from this and the transfer may be a physical sensation, what types of senses come back to the user when experiencing a specific world/surrounding in which speaks to them. Can they vary according to a specific time or place, or even age, in which the human is identified at? This specific situation treats the ‘species’ as an if/then type of conclusion while still paying very close attention to the relationship and ties between the user and what is being used. Can we train/program our minds to believe what we want to see rather than what is already there? or can the world train us into believing what is ‘ideal’? Are we existing to co-exist with the world are are we here to challenge and push ‘its’ boundaries’?
