The dismal scene above is off Interstate 71 near Mansfield in north-central
Ohio. Notice how the array of various objects occupy space
without defining space in any meaningful way. Places of quality

space. American space is generally chaotic, illegible, and
disorienting. Notice, however, that its furnishings and accessories
are provisional to the extreme. Welcome to Temporary
Nation.
