Mashup:
Engineering can be seen as delivering knowledge by a direct
route, however architecture
has a special role in representing relationships of space and time. Engineers
must to strive to do new original and creative work and not be content with the
rote and unimaginative work which, while necessary, should be done as
efficiently and effectively as possible. The considerations that inform an
engineers mind are experience, the use of design standards as a way of passing
on knowledge and know-how. This
kind of know-how represents knowledge relating to some of the most fundamental
features of nature. An engineer through their own
experience, or by reading about the experiences of others, develop an intuitive
insight and feel for a problem and the way solutions can be developed. The
physical products of engineering can help us to access knowledge about the
world, whereby
contemplating space with the whole body and all senses, not just with the eyes
and intellect, allows more awareness of conflicts. Engineering
knowledge is genuinely cumulative, improved all the time by building on, and
not re-writing, what went before. In this sense engineers
starts to deal with the metaphysical (beyond the known), particularly once the human subject and
its body have been introduced, we see immediately that this is at once a
physical and conceptual entity, being and becoming, acting and thinking.
Initial Lumion Valley:
My Lumion valley was inspired by the Wombeyan Caves and surrounding mountains in regional NSW. This landscape is characterised by a forested highlands with limestone caves and deep rock valleys hidden within.
