Introducing a stockpile into a void creates a closed system. Where there was nothing now stands a set of entities, possibly simple or symbiotic that can survive from that resource and others use of that resource. Depending on the complexity of the stockpile different simple forms of life can procreate. These allow for a large […]
Overtime humanity has alerted the landscape to better fit their needs, to provide shelter, and comfort from the elements. Over time these structures evolved, and so did their building material point to the point that they began to dominate the natural landscape. Recently though, architecture has to tried to reconnect with the natural landscape, using […]

This PDF shows all of the quotes I extracted with important phrases (for […]
How has our environment evolved and have we evolved appropriately to survive in it? The Island and The Things both comment on how humans poorly adapted to our various environments. We are constantly unaware of the limitations of protocols that we don’t pay attention to and how they affect us. ex. gravity. How can we control our own evolution […]
What defines the boundary between a network of life and systems that is one organism and the greater network in which that organism lives? In our discussion last Wednesday, it was mentioned that “I” is sort of superficial because “I” (referring to a single human body) is actually referring to a combination of systems […]
