ye olde mark? whered you dig him up? facingbook? and why do you find this of interest?
Yep our mark the engineer. Yep FB. This has resonance for me because of my art practice, specifically the focus on process of manufacture and interest in cross disciplines and the theory behind those disciplines.
you cant make an omelette without breaking a few eggs.
Or tempera paint for that matter
that is funny but i wish youd give me a more concrete example in real terms. tease out for me how the original thesis statement, or the article underlying it, relates to "the focus on process of manufacture and interest in cross disciplines and the theory behind those disciplines."
im curious as a student not a peer.
Ok, I’ll work something up. But you may have noticed my focus on minimal leaning architecture. For me that’s a cross discipline that holds my interest long term. Making paintings that are sculptural is more important to me than figuration or representational abstraction. Doing close readings of how other trades make their building decisions is gratifying. So the work conforms to my persuit of pleasurable experiences.

based on the quote he seemed like a person of interest, this was a bookmark so I could comeback to it.

ok, that is an interesting distillation of your approach but still not seeing much revelatory in this article or how it could inform your work. even it calls its conclusions obvious and trivial. maybe im missing something. ill let it go.
