Metropolis and Transportation: For mankind, a ‘city’ was a ‘place’ where people were born, grew up, and eventually died. It was initially difficult for humans to choose a ‘place’ to live. Humans had to follow the fate they were given. However, with the development of transportation and the widespread adoption of online networks, humans have been able to select their own places of residence. Throughout history, humans have only been able to voluntarily choose where they want to live for a short time. Achieving freedom of movement marks a fundamental change in the form and character of cities. The development of transportation has completely transformed our lives. The emergence and evolution of transportation means, such as electric vehicles and high-speed trains, indicate that we are in the middle of a revolution that humanity is experiencing for the first time. If you do not respond to these changes, you will face difficulties. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
I believe Maslow’s “Theory of Needs” is a brilliant concept. Humans exhibit different behaviors based on their needs, prioritize satisfaction, and seek fulfillment at higher levels. This theory can also explain why artists often struggle financially. While art is not a necessity for daily life, it is an essential component of a fulfilling existence. However, it holds a high position in the hierarchy of needs, resulting in a small number of very famous artists accumulating substantial wealth within the art market. By analyzing people’s actions based on their needs, one can roughly predict the marketability and sustainability of their professions. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
