Brutal


I am an old fashioned type of person.  Nothing will persuade me that these buildings are lovely. So different from the inspiring sandstone campus I attended. And so like the equally ugly award winning Cameron Offices where I worked in Canberra, built in the same era.

That's the library below, which is a little bit smarter, but I reckon the building beside it looks like a car park.

  1. I went to UTS for 4 years (concrete jungle central) and know all about concrete. I can accept it if there's something more organic to balance it out (like wooden floors for example).

  2. You know I quite like the geometric shapes in that building but it's very dirty.
    It needs a good clean and I reckon a coat of paint in a nifty colour and some beautiful gardens to surround it would make all the difference.

Listening to the stars

In the morning we went out to see the radio telescope 20 or so kms out of town.  On another wayfaring trip  we visited the radio telescope at Parkes  but this one is an array of dishes on a long track that can act like one big dish.

And I wrap up this trip with the Royal Hotel at Ganman.
