Lindsey made a very good point about the video Power of Ten and how everything is interrelated and cannot coexist without one and other. This video also relates to how designers not only have to keep this idea of interrelated wholeness in mind, but also pertains to Jae's label of the architect as a schizophrenic. To even begin being able to see things as a interrelated whole, we have to first train our minds to be able to switch from thinking about the size of molecules and atoms, to the size of buildings and entire cities. Jerry's lecture on proxemics is also a topic I would like to explore more about. Proxemics vary from culture to culture, person to person. It is a reflection of how a specific society interacts with one another. By analyzing the proxemics of a culture one can get a sense of the amount of space available in their cities and the type of densities people live in.
