Understanding Wholeness and the Patterns of Place with David Seamon
A deep discussion surrounding the concept of 'wholeness' and 'place' with David Seamon, a geographer and phenomenologist, and philosoher Andrea Hiott. The conversation traverses the work of Christopher Alexander, particularly his book 'A Pattern Language,' and how his architectural theories interconnect with environmental serendipity, phenomenology, and the deeper human experience of being in the world. The dialogue encompasses the importance of understanding place as a dynamic, evolving entity intertwined with human existence, emphasizing the significance of phenomenology, holistic approaches, and the work of scholars like Henri Bortoft and Edward Relph. David Seamon reflects on his lifelong pursuit to understand the integrated phenomenon of place and its impact on human life, advocating for a broader acknowledgment of these ideas in academic and practical realms.
