rganizing visual abstract snippets, the cityscape is especially good for isolating and contemplating geometric tendencies. Much of the human constructed environment is based on the rectilinear, with an underlining grid as a dominate design influence. Perhaps any object by definition must occupy space, and to do so places inherent constraints on structural integrity. Alternatively, our regimented cultural identity may be reinforced by reference to a framework of crisscrossed parallel elements.
“All thought is a feat of association; having what's in front of you bring up something in your mind that you almost didn't know you knew.” - Robert Frost
