I imagine my infrastructure architecture world as a cloud forest ecosystem and I’m the researcher trying to understand, explain and describe it. My sketch of the cloud forest metaphor:
In this metaphore the most important characteristic of the cloud forest is:
it is impossible to see the whole forest due to the trees and the clouds
So I’m aware that I’m walking in a cloud forest, but I’m only able to focus at the part that is visible for me. For the other, not direct visible, parts I must rely on information provided by the communities, the clouds and available descriptions and my own experience and creativity!
