Benjamin Busch Reihenfolge der Bücher

Exploring the intertwined themes of life, landscape, and memory, this memoir reflects on the contrasts between childhood adventures and adult revelations, as well as the experiences of farm life and the battlefield. Authored by Benjamin Busch, a decorated Marine Corps officer and the son of novelist Frederick Busch, it offers profound insights into mortality and our temporal existence, positioning itself alongside the works of Tim O'Brien and Annie Dillard in its emotional depth and literary merit.

The book explores the influence of grain coating phases on reservoir quality through syntaxial overgrowth cementation. It delves into reaction kinetics as a method for modeling cement phase development over time. Additionally, it incorporates algorithms that address compaction behavior, porosity, and permeability to enhance reservoir quality modeling. The text also examines how sub-vertical deformation bands can compartmentalize reservoirs, affecting bed-parallel permeability and preserving geochemical changes.

What happens to human artifice after the fact? A search for an answer to this question is chronicled in Palimpsest, a photo book documenting the author’s archaeological investigations of abandoned sites in and around Berlin. Portrayed elegantly in black and white, Nature is cast as a pivotal actor in the palimpsest of human creation. Foreword by Manuel Wischnewski titled “Nascent Places”. Published simultaneously with Material Senescence (2014). First Edition.

Borrowing a term from biology, the author uses senescence to describe the ecological aging of architectural fabric in Material Senescence. Text and photographs draw from instances of failing architecture in Berlin to speculate upon the unpredictable breaking down of materials in the built environment. Foreword by Mark Minkjan titled "Transience: the Nature of Architecture". Published simultaneously with Palimpsest (2014). First Edition.
