Show CRANK FOR FUN Camille Coons, Dallas IMelson,Chad Spencer, Chris Talvy (Basil Harb) College of Architecture and Planning Camille Cddiis College of Architecture and Planning Dallas Nelson College of Architecture and Planning Chad Spencer College of Architecture and Planning College of Architecture and Planning You are being conditioned. At this very moment, your environment is modifying, molding, and manipulating you. And you are conforming to it. You have no choice. Your environment is defined as the surroundings that dictate your actions, your opinions, and your thoughts. Everything you do is influenced in some way by the physical, societal, behavioral, economical, political, and intellectual environment that surrounds you. Walk into the library. You are expected to behave a certain way in this type of environment. Everyone here is quietly studying, reading, or researching. Loud voices, rowdy movements, and boisterous actions are frowned upon. You are confined by the context of the library and its behavioral restrictions. Now enter the machine. Turn the crank and hide the library and its sobering formalities. Reject its restraints by raising the canopy and concealing your view of the library with the curtain. Emancipate the fun that the library constrains and experience the levity of no gravity. You have now been conditioned. Just as the library conditions you to act formally, the machine conditions you to reject propriety. Wherever you are, you will always be conditioned by your environment. Faculty Sponsor Basil Harb |
