Jacques-Yves Cousteau:

After conducting some background research of Cousteau, I noticed how much he stressed the importance of the relationships between man and the marine environment. Cousteau was a proactive environmentalist, and his films in particular are designed to highlight the effect humans have on the environment.
“We forget that the water cycle and the life cycle are one.”
Following from this, he also stressed how important it was for political nations adopt a solidarity approach to the protection of the environment, again highlighting the connectedness of the relationship.
“However fragmented the world, however intense the national rivalries, it is an inexorable fact that we become more interdependent every day.”

This is a quote from Sir Ian Wilmut, a stem cell scientist who is a colleague of Keith Campbell and was part of the team who cloned “Dolly” in 1997. The reason I selected this quote was because it highlights the importance of cooperation in scientific pursuits. This I feel this reflects the notion of the meeting space in the project.

This quote I believe can be interpreted on two levels; the first being a reference to the amount of travel Nobel did during his career, and the second relating to the research Nobel was conducting was superfluous his location. There is a particularly primal habitation element to this quote which could be interesting to explore.
