Behold the Wondrous Evoluscope, a ground breaking mind bending parascientific device which allows us to take snapshots of the future. Future scenarios are projected through hpotheses of how our current civilisation could evolve. The evolution, mutation and hybridisation of the architectural type provides the final scope of our investigation which is seen as an expression of this change. This is the architectural thesis of Scott Mason at The University of Melbourne.

Victory Gardens

During the second world war as men were overseas fighting the production of food in countries such as America, Canada and Australia experienced food shortages.  Governments adopted a media push urging housewives to grow their own vegetables as a means of supporting their dietary needs.  Through a localisation of the food supply shortages of food  were addressed. Called “Victory Gardens” the scheme worked very well until the return of the soldiers whereby food production returned to its pre war cycle.
