Mountains and Megastructures: Neo-Geologic Landscapes of Human Endeavour by Martin BeattieEnglish | PDF | 2021 | 336 Pages | ISBN : 9811571090 | 9.1 MB
This book explores the shared qualities of mountains as naturally-formed landscapes, and of megastructures as manmade landscapes, seeking to unravel how each can be understood as an open system of complex network relationships (human, natural and artificial). By looking at mountains and megastructures in an interchangeable way, the book negotiates the fixed boundaries of natural and artificial worlds, to suggest a more complex relationship between landscape and architecture.
