Developing: the idea of home

"Developing: the idea of home" poses the question, "[a]s space becomes more 'virtual,' or, as urban sociologist Henri Lefebvre characterized it, 'abstract,' how do we conceptualize not only personal shelter, but local place? . . . This CD-ROM is a meditation on these and other questions. It is organized in an associative manner, meant to invite perusal. It contains histories, but it is not a history. There is occassion to play here, but this is not a game . . . Because this work is not linear, it is my hope that the reader/user may discover new ways to think about space, and that most precious of all possessions 'home.'" -- Nancy Buchanan, from "Developing the Idea of Home," Description
