I’m wondering what it would be like to be completely educated through experience in an occupational setting. Thus far, aside from learning how to drive a forklift, I have only had formal, regimented education, with an educator at the front of the room and my ass in the chair, taking furious notes, exam to follow.

This week I’m beginning a sort of internship, apprenticeship with a very experienced and highly educated engineer. I’m really excited and eager to begin learning to “real world” things he will have to teach me. I will definitely let you know how it goes.

p.b.

Yeah, Concrete Thursday

again. Today; an article

from the NY Times.

That is all.

Concrete Thursday. Thats right. Concrete Thursday. Posts about concrete. On Thursdays.

This is a project that is several years old but deserves a little love. Cast entirely out of concrete, Lookout Point serves as a shelter along the pilgrimage path in Jalisco, Mexico. Check out the project details and see how the structures serves as a loop, bringing visitors up and in, around, down and out again in continuous movement. Very cool.

I came across this a few months ago when Alex posted it, my buddy Jacques reminded me of it and I thought it deserved sharing. So fullscreen, if you can, watch it in HD, with the lights off, and the sound up. Enjoy.
