One of the things I like to do is look for patterns in things. Attractive shapes or lines that will be hidden without some attention or will be largely ignored by the eye. I was also attracted to the rundown and what could be considered the most ugly in the world. Maybe it’s because we like the house we bought because it’s not beautiful. But it could be.
I think this is clearly part of the attraction of reform. Browndown has taken that and turned it into something usable or beautiful. It rebuilds to protect it from garbage or destruction. However, there is beauty in decay. Like a kind of old face, which has seen many lives and gained a lot of experience and it can be difficult to find the line between saving the item and destroying its character.
Civil explorers see the magic in many of the ruined walls. Which others will see as eyeballs. But I wonder what’s interesting about it. Does it make us feel connected to a past we have never seen? Does it remind you? Our own existence, death and the inevitable consequence of us?
I think that’s when I walk through a building like that. What a better day to see, then a piece of magic was able to recreate the space in my imagination. I have been able to transform reality into something of my own creation. Even if I never get the chance to actually do it myself. I often do this in two ways. Where I first try to get an idea of what it was like when it was primitive and then what it could be with unlimited resources.
I usually keep my camera with me when going through places like this and when I take pictures, when I see three worlds through the lens and shake between them. I notice the angles and windows and what a view can be or how a wall will be removed or how light will fall through the structure if a window is open. I like this process. It's like drawing cloud shapes with my finger.
In my experience it is important to have an imagination and it does not matter what a field or field can find in its own way in general. Something needs to be made. Many seem to be waiting for inspiration to hit them. Yet they always have the tools of the trade, the greatest simulation machine.
Probably because of the busy world and the amount of passive entertainment we receive, we only use our brains then. When we should be forced, when there is a problem and then the switch is off and I think we were doing our own creative harm. Thinking with purpose is like practicing a skill and looking to improve. I think we can improve how we create and how we think broadly - if we think.
I’m not sure it even matters what we think about it. However, I guess it helps us to actively develop such areas. Where we want to be where we can be, and then the secondary region that supports the primary. Thinking for enjoyment seems to be out of trend nowadays. A strange conflict by my measurements while being aware though. Maybe we've been conditioned to think about what we're told to swallow. Instead of focusing on what is around us, the fruits of the forest - there is plenty of content. We have the whole world hidden in every step. If we just look a little closer and imagine a lot more.
We spend a lot of time eating from mostly irrelevant sources while paying very little attention to the environment that connects our very feet and our reach. Perhaps the weapons of mass confusion have been created to stop us from what affects our public life.
It's fantasy.
