Manuscript #2- brainstorming
Finally got to Poland yesterday, and thank goodness, there is a laptop here with an American keyboard. This makes a hefty difference as most of my emails and correspondance so far has been done with my iPhone. Coming back into the homestead, I finally have time to start doing some extensive writing. My thesis last year was largely based on architectural theory, and my belief that lazy architecture has a negative effect on people’s creativity and sexuality. I argued that buildings and physical space are the main component to creating a healthy emotional and spiritual side as well. In visiting a lot of palaces, museums, and other places of interest, I am looking to explore how these spaces are reinterpreted by history. How a king can die in his palace and how it can become a museum space 6 weeks later. The way that a Checkpoint Charlie mean so much to Berliners looking to leave the East for the West, and that today there is a McDonald’s across the street and bros taking pictures with iPads. Do I care too much about how people react to space, building, and history? I am obsessed with things that are historically accurate, and I often find myself disliking buildings that I know have been rebuilt after war damage. Something about it feels fake to me. Should buildings allow themselves to be reinterpreted? Is it possible to consider this when you build new spaces? How can fantasy architecture effect a person’s pereception of reality? How have I let space effect my personality and habits? These are the things that are interesting me so far on this trip.
