2.1 Shaping
"The notion of discovering an underlying order in matter is man's basic concept for exploring nature.  The architecture of things reveals a structure below the surface, a hidden grain which, when it is laid bare, makes it possible to take natural formations apart and assemble them in new arrangements.  For me this is the step in the ascent of man at which theoretical science begins.  And it's as native to the way man conceives his own communities as well as nature".
