I found this lecture to be very interesting, and it reaffirmed my confidence in how my project was going, with many similar ideas being present in both my project and this lecture.
Phil showed us a previous project which had been completed by two architectural teams from different countries and the responses and ideas that they generated. Some ideas, such as food production (which we have already discussed) became quite prominent within the schemes and example images were produced such as the one below.

This image to me is very emotive and from the careful composition and stylistic collage, an instantly recognisable idea can be seen. It is from images such as this one and the one below that I begin to understand how such images can become part of a narrative and tell a story.

These images began to explain to me more about the project then I had previously been able to visualise and from it I began to see a clearer image of what Brisbane's future would look like.
Further lecturing into the highline project in New York taught me how a small change in terms of design can have a larger impact upon the society. It also taught me how to successfully integrate a fairly radical idea into an already existing and firmly established urban sprawl.
