Even without prolonged consideration, I can say with certainty that Inception is truly one of the most remarkable films ever made. If you are an architect and are passionate about your craft, the philosophical questions posed in the film about the nature of creativity should resonate to the very core of what drives you. I mentioned in a comment on the previous post, which is also about architecture in film and whose content bears relevance to this post, that I have recently been interested in only the visceral qualities of buildings - material, texture, shape, form, aesthetic - but I'm finding that view to be incredibly short-sighted in light of the words of respected colleagues and the works of genius artist/philosophers like Christopher Nolan. I have learned that dreaming, sensuality, and the creative subconscious are all just as important as we interpret our world through our mind.
I don't want to discuss particular points of the movie here, but I am really curious to hear insight from the rest of you. For myself, I can already tell grad school will be a rewarding venture - I can't wait to put some of these notions to the test!
architecture in its purest form comes from the heart. It is why grad school will be a very personal experience for you.
