6.124 Activities to be nurtured fall into two broad groups: cognitive and affective (passive and active). Activities may also be classified by group size: large group, small group, two-person, and.individual. A possible representative spectrum of activities is presented in Table 6.16. All activities chosen would require facilities that could be accommodated within the prototype colony habitable spaces. The lifestyle of the colony population might also require other sets of activities which could supply additional income or, perhaps, full-time employment to those responsible for them. These would include retail and commercial activities, religious and educational centers, maintenance and service occupations. A representative list of such activities is presented in Table 6.17. The size of facilities needed to house these activities would be dependent on frequency and duration of the activity and the degree of specificity which an activity might demand of its space. An important factor is the colony's climate: activities which need shelter most of the year in Bos~on or Chicago might well take place "outside" in SCOPTON. ~COPTON's climate, a mix of San Francisco and Los Angeles with t'he extremes of neither, is ideal for "outside" activities. Drama, dining, bingo and sculpting could exist easily outside, as well as reading, appliance repair and the practice of architecture. Social mores, acoustic separation, the need for visual control or priva~y would be the~factors determining the degree of enclosure needed. A teacher would find it hard to control a class given in a garden place; most colonists would be offended by the mortician's preparation of a corpse on the Broad Street ~idewalk. Nonetheless, the architecture of SCOPTON should take advantage of its climate, and evolve with greater similarities to Japanese indigenous architecture or the work of Greene and Greene (6.21) than to the New England sandbox and McKim, Mead, and White (6.22). VI.12.4: Habitable Space Program: The Habitable Space Program is presented in Table 6.18. Activities are divided into eight categories: Housing, Education, Active Sports, Spectator Activities, Active Cultural, Religious, Entertainment, and Service Professionals.
