The rate of change and innovation in our lifetime is amazing. It is simply impossible to keep up. I remember making calls on a telephone on the wall in the kitchen with a long, coiled cord that I would stretch around the wall as far as I could and talk as quietly as possible. My family was on a party line, this meant your neighbors—if they were nosy—could listen in to your calls. We typed on electric typewriters in high school and in college we had to go to a computer lab to type our papers. How things have changed! We have two daughters that are Generation Z. This generation has grown up in a world where the term “personal smart devices” seems completely normal. They have a personal computer and a smart phone that keeps them in constant contact with everyone. Facetime means we get to see our college student as we talk to him across the country. My high school daughter tells me about Tweets from our President she has read during the day. And we “Google” to find facts when we have a family debate.

  • No Maccas in the Hills! Locating the Planning History of Fast Food Chains
    U H P H 2 0 1 6 I c o n s : T h e M a k i n g , M e a n i n g a n d U n d o i n g o f U r b a n I c o n s a n d I c o n i c C i t i e s | 468 No Maccas in the Hills! Locating the planning history of fast food chains Dr Elizabeth Taylor Centre for Urban Research, RMIT University [email protected] Dr David Nichols Faculty of Architecture Building and Planning, The University of Melbourne [email protected] The rise of the ‘fast food’ concept as it is understood in the 21st century is the result of a series of calibrations enacted over decades by business, society and technology. The expansion of fast food franchising has paralleled social and environmental change, particularly since the middle of the 20th century. Its origins may be seen as modernism’s response to unease with the processing of food under industrial conditions; yet its development as a ‘system’ has mirrored or inspired innovation in service delivery, construction and social expectation over the last century. Many of these are connected to the rise of the automobile and the expansion of low-density suburbia. Fast food’s planning history has gone largely undocumented. The fast food outlet is so ubiquitous that while critics might decry its products as a negative influence on health, the outlet might nonetheless be said to be hiding in plain sight: in the guise of just one more manifestation of automobile-led change.
