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.

Mapping Globalisation


With all the talk of globalization it is easy to forget that at the very core of the concept is a notion of geographical location. Globalization involves connections between at least two places and the first step in any understanding must be an appreciation of what this means in a concrete sense of space.
Mapping offers a possible solution to the dilemmas posed by the complexity of both network analysis and globalization. As part of the Mapping Globalization project, researchers from Princeton University and The University of Washington are accordingly assembling a collection of digital maps and links to maps.
