Questions and Topics for Your Blog Posting:
1. For each video list/discuss the key concepts you learned.
Prarie: I learned from this video about organic architecture and that it is when architects use the natural elements and a buildings surroundings to make it blend in an belong in the environment. I think this is unique, I know a house by my grandma that is built into the side of a hill. I like it because it keeps us from taking away from nature with our structures.
Plant Earth: I learned that if we went back to simpler ideas in technologies of building we could cut down energy waste a lot. Everyone is into hybrid technology and new "green" inventions, but an architect in China just simply made buildings narrower to allow more cross ventilation which cuts down significantly on energy waste.
2. How do the videos relate to the readings in the text?
They further prove the theories and ideas taught to us in the book. They are a more indepth look at the text and add interest because they focus on one specific topic.
3. What is your opinion of the films? How do they add depth to understanding of Architecture?
I thought the films I chose were both interesting. They add depth to the understanding of architecture by showing out of the box ways to go about designing a building that I would not have thought of before.
4. From the group of four that you had a choice: Why did you choose that film?
I like nature and I am kind of a green freak!
