Is there such a thing as a completely man made environment? Is there a place where each and every visible element is man made, artificial, controlled, manufactured, designed…
maybe the thinking that such places exist is based on a thinking that is limited to a very particular, human scale… maybe even the man made and designed elements are just the reshuffled elements of a much larger something…
is it our self centered way of seeing things that gives us the illusion that we can actually “make” something?…
i guess it is important for us to imagine that we can control certain elements of our environment. It is important to create shelter for us, for our thoughts and for our ideas.
Shelter for memories, shelter for the imagination.
I guess we like to create systems that please us because they are man made and they are somehow predictable and protective… these can be objects, but they also can be complex idea environments like religion, art or science.. perhaps?…
It is nice that we look to and at other planets… It is nice that our closest star gives us all this abundance of energy…
