The Lyceum Fellowship

Project for The Friesenhahn Cave Site

We are presenting the past to the future.

We are the bridge between the past and the future. We discover, study, and document ancient existence. We are eager to know the history in order to predict the future. To ancient existence, we are the time traveler.

The primary task is to create a boundary and threshold between the buildable portion of the site beyond the cave offset and the interior portion of the protected historic cave area. Conceptually it is a boundary between the "present-day suburban condition" and the interior protected cave or "deep time" of the Pleistocene epoch (ice age). This is both a literal and conceptual boundary experience. Consider the experience of going back in time 20,000 years or so.
