LECTURE 3
Form & Space

Attribute of form : texture, colour, heavy, light, shape, size, scal
es, proportion, etc...
Attribute of space : land, table, floor, etc...

Nodes-paths
-taken from the web of En. Wan

~A Product must has it's own identity such as
  • beauty






  • smooth
  • shiny







  • unique
  • red







  • rough

-
revealing how the brain normally organizes and interprets sensory stimulation

For examples,

Optical illusion
-this eye trick create a great optical illusion



Another unique optical illusion that give us a good optical illusion.^.^
Do you agree?

World (From wikipedia)

-common noun for the planet envisioned from an anthropocentric or human worldview
-a place inhabits by human-beings and other terrestrial lifes
-often used to signify the sum of human experiences and history, or the "human condition" in general.
-The world population is approximately 6.68 billion people.
-
In a metaphysical context, World may refer to everything that constitutes reality and the Universe


The World Map


One World People
-opinion on world matters
-Can all people cooperate to save our world, free from environmental problem like pollution???


So, it is very important to save our earth now.^.^

World Government (From Wikipedia)
The concept of a political body that would make, interpret and enforce international laws. Inherent to the concept of a world government is the idea that nations would be required to pool or surrender (depending on point of view) sovereignty over some areas. In effect, a world government would add another level of administration above the existing national governments or provide coordination over areas national governments are not capable of adequately addressing as independent polities. The authority granted this level and how it relates to national governments and/or citizens is debated by both adherents and opponents to world government.
- refers to the idea of all humankind united under one common political authority.

Iatrogeny
It is popularly considered to be the result of treatment. This reasoning is neither false nor is it exhaustive. This article is an attempt to specify the term "iatrogeny", analyses its causes as well as its links with the medical error and medical experiment. It was stated that iatrogeny is a result of an adverse effect which might be associated with either health - care workers or the health - care system generally. Unfavourable impact on patients' health can concern both psychological and physical condition. Therefore, the terms "iatropsychogeny" and "iatrosomatopathy" were distinguished. Iatrogenic effects accompanying medical experiments were considered specific and ethically justified ones, as far as they were carried out in precisely given conditions. They are regarded to be the price of progress in medicine. The health education of the society, versatile training of the medical staff and efficient health - care system are considered to be crucial to minimize iatrogenic influence on patients' health. Unfortunately, according to the reports from UK and USA, it is difficult and practically impossible to eliminate iatrogeny.

RAG 132 Built Environmental Sciences

LECTURE 1
Production
What is production?
The built environment is built and produced. So, production consists of six elements which are intention, act, product, actor, rule and site.
Intention>Act>Product>Actor>Rule>Site
1. Intention (aim, objective)
-to have intention, we must enrich ourselves with knowledge.
-to get knowledge, it’s involves listening and seeing.
-divide into 2 groups:
~explicit (something that can be expressed out)
~implicit (something that untold @not mention)
-no matter the intention is good @ bad
2. Act
-it’s either individually @ in group
-an action that take by an actor
-knowledge is a product for some acts
-some acts in built environment include designing, constructing, modelling and others



3. Product
-something that acts such as design, built @ destroy to the built environment on our site




4. Actor
-the person who determine the wrong @ right
-it’s includes professional like engineer, architect, quantity surveyor, interior design and others.



5. Rule
-it’s either in man-made @ natural
-most rules that we see are written down as law, custom, cultural and regulations
-determine whether the act that takes by the actor is wrong @ right


6. Site

-it’s on our earth (land, floor, table @ even a pieces of paper)



There are several ideologies, person who
• no right + no wrong = altruism
• no right + all wrong = cynicism
• everything right =relativism
• some right + some wrong = criticism
• must find for the truth = truth-seekerisme
• no need to look for the truth, just throw away the false = taoisme

Do you know how of the evolution for human?
Are human evolute from ape???



How about myism?
Myism may be criticism, relativism, sometimes altruism...
So, what is myism?
I think it's quite complicated....haha..

Built Environment (From Wikipedia)
-
refers to the man-made surroundings that provide the setting for human activity, ranging from the large-scale civic surroundings to the personal places.

-The term is also now widely used to describe the interdisciplinary field of study which addresses the design, management and use of these man-made surroundings and their relationship to the human activities which take place within them. The field is generally not regarded as an academic discipline in its own right, but as a "field of application" (or "interdiscipline") which draws upon the individual disciplines of economics, law, management, design and technology.


My own view about BuIlt EnViRoMeNt
-it is the environment about a site of building construction, no matter interior @ exterior.
-it also includes human activity to build a building
-the process also related like design, manage, ...etc

Do you think the same way like me???^.^
