If there are diverse kinds of knowledge and ways of knowing place, then we need to learn to value the different ways each of us sees a single place that is significant, but differently so, for each perspective.

Fordist modernism « Previous | |Next »
July 13, 2004

Photographic modernism celebrated the machine or technology:

Wolfgang Sievers, B.H.A.S., Pt. Pirie, 1967
