Here is a link to my internal review video from the review on Wednesday. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WcvwsCOxKYE\ To kickstart my project, I have been reading Elias Canetti’s book Crowds and Power, and extracting quotes that are relevant for the crowd logics I am studying and attempting to model. This PDF shows all of the quotes I extracted with important phrases (for […]
A constant in history is the displacement and the movement of populations across the planet. Whether it is because of famine, drought, war, disease, and even environment disasters, humans have been traversing the face of the planet since the beginning. Most recently because of civil warfare in Syria that began in March 2011 the number […]
Pet Architecture- Animals have better instincts such as anticipating danger, finding water and food, etc. How can they be used for architecture, resources, survival- in extreme locations or after extreme disasters? Which species would be useful for resource gathering, and which for post-colonization equilibrium maintenance within the new ecosystem? Dune– “Movement across the landscape is a necessity […]
Every species is in a state of constant evolution. Humans are an interesting species as we evolve not just physically but also technologically. We live in symbiosis with countless other species and cells yet we have never tried to communicate through them. A New language could be established through architecture. The bottom bread spends his […]
“The more you can change, the more you can adapt. Adaptation is fitness, adaptation is survival. It’s deeper than intelligence, deeper than tissue; it is cellular, it is axiomatic.” The Thing, Peter Watts There have been many assumptions about what the future has in store for us and how to plan for such situations. However, […]
The earth is in constant reconstruction. Organisms constantly collect and stockpile resources. Naturally waves, wind, even the moving earth are all effects that are prone to organize and move resources. Almost every action has an effect of stockpiling. By this definition all actions can be looked at as an organism. Biologically by consuming, certain elements […]
The imagery of Miyazaki’s film was really creative and inspiring–especially the depictions of the forest species both fauna and flora in the Toxic Jungle. A couple of things regarding the forest I thought was interesting–the first being its flourishing presence in a toxic environment and the second being how the human characters reacted to […]
This is what we know — We have transformed roughly 3/4 of Earth’s land that is not covered in ice. Our use of fossil fuels has acidified the oceans and dramatically raised temperatures. We have influenced entire species of flora and fauna, often causing extinction. Humans presently influence over 50% of the planet’s river systems […]
Artificial and natural in the past have been seen as mortal enemies of each other. Always competing with each other for existence, until recently. Artificiality as reached a stage of complexion which has allowed it to finally learn from and copy natural design, and surpass it. Blurring the lines, raising moral question, creating grey areas […]
So, as the little prince described it to me, I have made a drawing of that planet. I do not much like to take the tone of a moralist. But the danger of the baobabs is so little understood, and such considerable risks would be run by anyone who might get lost on an asteroid, […]
