Start of Blog (Round Two)

Start of Blog.... Again!

So this is my second attempt at this subject, on the first run through last year I was in a particularly bad head-space I had a myriad of ideas on what I wanted to do with the design task in front of me. Unfortunately due to over-committing to other subjects and having a few personal problems I found myself at the end of the semester with tonnes of ideas very little practical resolutions to them and not much documentation to explain them.

So here I am to give it another crack, I still have grand ideas for this subject but I'm determined to resolve them in an architectural entity.

In the next few posts I plan to outline some of the technologies that have been piquing my interest lately, and my initial ideas on how to incorporate them into a built form.

After the jump I shall also begin compiling a list of these entities with links to the future posts and sources.
