Concept Statement

Revival: bringing to activity and prominence

(restoration and adaptive re-use of Revolution mills)

Living: animation, still in active use, surviving

(human presence and influence)

Biomechanical: application of mechanics and machinery knowledge to the structure of living things

(relationship of cotton/railroad machinery tasks worked in conjunction with human beings)

System: instrumentality that combines interrelated interacting artifacts designed to work as a coherent entity 

(the entirety of Revolution Mills)

"Revival of a Living Biomechanical System"

Do "living" and "biomechanical" repeat the same information? 

To be developed further.
