if the road is the first and most basic public space per Jackson's discussion of odology, does he seem to think this occurs when people are in cars? what do you think?
what does Jackson describe as the culture of car mechanics?
trace the impact of the truck on American architecture.
explain what Jackson means when he talks about how 'docile we have been in complying with the scientific definition of the highway as a managed authoritarian system of steady, uninterrupted flow'. why do you think this came about?
describe some of the pleasures or positive human/emotional responses that Jackson ascribes to highway travel. describe one of your own.
do you agree or disagree with Jackson's statement: "americans are of two minds of how we ought to live". explain your answer.
would you say jackson is utopian, realistic, or dystopian in his reading of suburban america? (the answer can be some a mix) explain
describe GENIUS LOCI made by an event or series of events; one made by structures and spaces? can you think of one that is made by both?
