the ship and the city
Still working on the WB, changed the layout, basically made most of them more condensed and have distinguishable layout and text..
Yesterday I was doing research for TS and found this great book which specifically talks about architecture of ships and comparison between ships and cities...
"Earlier liners were linked in many ways to the life and social patterns of the cities between which the plied, and were occasionally themselves depicted as one aspect of metropolitan life."
The Steerage 1907, Alfred Stieglitz:
"What Stieglitz discovers in The Steerage is a maritime space that becomes metropolitan, vertical and hierarchical, jam packed with anonimity. The ship, the largest machine capable of being pictured in its totality, yields a partial image of that larger, unpicturable machine: the city." - Allan Sekula
