ShortFormContent at Blogger: Mass modular building is the key to the resuscitation of our economy:
Conventional value is what one associates with use, usefulness, meaning, something that means something to someone. We live in a world where value is ambient because so much is disposable, disposed of, of little or no duration. Much that we buy does not last, is not built to last, is disposable. I am not sure whether we should value duration or go with the flow of disposable, recycling, letting time determine use. We build value as replacement. We build brands around models. The language of our culture is the language of transience, of momentary excitement, of destruction, of acceptable destruction. When I say value could be tied to duration I am thinking of qualities that make things worth keeping, worth valuing, central. This seems to a a minimalist and subjective thing. Fewer things. More duration.
