When Daniels said “Every form of existence has\u00a0its source in some peculiar way of seeing, some intellectual formulation and intuition of meaning.” I thought of spacetime and the field of flows. There have been many different ways of interpretations of landscape throughout history. Clifford Gertz, for example, said\u00a0culture is a ‘text’ and ‘diagnosis’\u00a0that can tell us about the values and cultures of a society. \u00a0Every interpretation comes from the field of flows, they use past experiences and knowledge to\u00a0make a unique understanding of landscape. These unique interpretations help us learn more and can create new ways of thinking about a topic. However, Daniels also explains that today there are less of these interpretations going on because in many situations we are being told\u00a0how we should interpret something. “…every object converted to an image with a specific label or signature. “(6) This way of thinking is\u00a0becoming increasingly prominent\u00a0in todays society \u00a0similar to Daniel’s description of late 20th century art no longer being a unified\/organic area but a “grab-bag of random raw materials and impulses.”(5) As cultures and societies advance, there seems to be more definite ways of thinking than individual interpretations using past experiences and knowledge.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
