The country in contrast works on a sepreate rhythm, one more in tune with the rhythm of every day neccesities rather than the pursuit of money. Changes are evident along the journey. The manic pace of the CBD is left behind, and is replaced by the rhythm of three bedroom brick veneers as one passes through the suburbs then to the rhythm of trees and open fields of the country. Eventually the rhythm slows and becomes dictated by the essentials of life, such as eating and sleeping. CBD Huge verticals tower over the street scape, people scurry to and fro each with an inimitable purpose and destination, vehicles rush in and around that space called the CBD delivering their goods for daily consumption by the work place.
Speed is the essence, whether it be the hurried lunch or that unavoidable deadline.
Information interchange is part of this culture and in the same way relies on speed, 'fastest is best' is the CBD's catch cry. The rhythm of suburbia works in conjunction with that of the CBD and in the evening settles down to a rhythmic drone of commercial television.
