WEEK 1: Lecture 1

The first week's lecture gave an introductory on the selected topic, future envisage. The idea of that a building or architectural entity will last more than one generation (80+ years) is profound. Architect's the visionaries, poets, artists and strategist should explore certain possibilities.

I liked how Yasu split the themes groups into four different topics or context typologies.
-Urban
-Region
-Suburban
-Virtual

The possible future - a virtual world (http://www.danielyeow.com/2011/tron-legacy/)

Urbanisation of many countries is well known, but other areas, especially the virtual world, could be explored in greater detail. My original thought was the city, where most change will be physcially seen, but the others will also be significantly impacted by time.
