Anyhow, I've been busy working in school and not really doing much else then hanging out with people here in the east residence of the campus. It is a bit weird here. A strange surreal feeling. Every townhouse is the same, with the same furniture and same planning. If you go visit someone it feels like you are first leaving your own home then coming back in to you own home again. You sit down in an identical sofa in an identical living room next to an identical kitchen. It's like something out of the Twilight Zone. Somehow I can picture this place deserted and dead. It has no soul the only thing keeping the shell alive is the people living here. When they are gone the sense of this place will be gone too.
This blog is about a landscape architect student studying at ECA (Edinburgh College of Art) and currently on exchange in Guelph, Canada, this blog will focus on exploration and the experiences, insights and reflections during this exchange here in Canada.
I have been told on several occasions by different lecturers and visiting professionals in the educational system that landscape architecture is a lot of things, but "...it's not art". A statement that sometimes feels a bit narrowed minded to make, but can hold some truth to it. //-Jacob
