It may seem strange that, under lockdown conditions where I could have digitally dwelt in all kinds of different landscapes, I keep coming back to one which contains the carcasses of two nuclear reactors. The landscape is beautiful (Snowdonia is beautiful), but here at Trawsfynydd, in addition to the beauty, there&#8217;s a sense that the landscape is rich with ideas,  even brimming with ideas, about how accommodating a landscape might be, and what possibilities it affords, and how features can be soundly made in a place like this. And the possibility (probability?) that those ideas didn&#8217;t work doesn&#8217;t make the encountering of them less compelling. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.ncl.ac.uk\/paulwright3\/files\/2021\/03\/image-1024x683.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-42\" width=\"674\" height=\"449\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.ncl.ac.uk\/paulwright3\/files\/2021\/03\/image-1024x683.png 1024w, https:\/\/blogs.ncl.ac.uk\/paulwright3\/files\/2021\/03\/image-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/blogs.ncl.ac.uk\/paulwright3\/files\/2021\/03\/image-768x512.png 768w, https:\/\/blogs.ncl.ac.uk\/paulwright3\/files\/2021\/03\/image-1536x1024.png 1536w, https:\/\/blogs.ncl.ac.uk\/paulwright3\/files\/2021\/03\/image.png 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 674px) 100vw, 674px\" \/><figcaption><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/47310787@N02\/40319318065\">&#8220;Llyn Trawsfynydd&#8221;<\/a> by <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/47310787@N02\" target=\"_blank\">peterlepping<\/a> is licensed under <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-nc\/2.0\/?ref=ccsearch&amp;atype=rich\" target=\"_blank\">CC BY-NC 2.0<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.ncl.ac.uk\/paulwright3\/files\/2021\/03\/image-1-1024x768.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-44\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.ncl.ac.uk\/paulwright3\/files\/2021\/03\/image-1-1024x768.png 1024w, https:\/\/blogs.ncl.ac.uk\/paulwright3\/files\/2021\/03\/image-1-300x225.png 300w, https:\/\/blogs.ncl.ac.uk\/paulwright3\/files\/2021\/03\/image-1-768x576.png 768w, https:\/\/blogs.ncl.ac.uk\/paulwright3\/files\/2021\/03\/image-1-1536x1152.png 1536w, https:\/\/blogs.ncl.ac.uk\/paulwright3\/files\/2021\/03\/image-1.png 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><figcaption><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/51671326@N00\/5895010417\">&#8220;Maentwrog New Dam&#8221;<\/a> by <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/51671326@N00\" target=\"_blank\">Roj<\/a> is licensed under <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-nc-sa\/2.0\/?ref=ccsearch&amp;atype=rich\" target=\"_blank\">CC BY-NC-SA 2.0<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"840\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.ncl.ac.uk\/paulwright3\/files\/2021\/03\/image-2-1024x840.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-45\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.ncl.ac.uk\/paulwright3\/files\/2021\/03\/image-2-1024x840.png 1024w, https:\/\/blogs.ncl.ac.uk\/paulwright3\/files\/2021\/03\/image-2-300x246.png 300w, https:\/\/blogs.ncl.ac.uk\/paulwright3\/files\/2021\/03\/image-2-768x630.png 768w, https:\/\/blogs.ncl.ac.uk\/paulwright3\/files\/2021\/03\/image-2-1536x1259.png 1536w, https:\/\/blogs.ncl.ac.uk\/paulwright3\/files\/2021\/03\/image-2.png 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><figcaption><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/13849292@N00\/14702096409\">&#8220;Trawsfynydd&#8221;<\/a> by <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/13849292@N00\" target=\"_blank\">papalamour<\/a> is licensed under <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-nc\/2.0\/?ref=ccsearch&amp;atype=rich\" target=\"_blank\">CC BY-NC 2.0<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.ncl.ac.uk\/paulwright3\/files\/2021\/03\/image-3.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-46\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.ncl.ac.uk\/paulwright3\/files\/2021\/03\/image-3.png 640w, https:\/\/blogs.ncl.ac.uk\/paulwright3\/files\/2021\/03\/image-3-300x225.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><figcaption><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.geograph.org.uk\/photo\/11089\">&#8220;Trawsfynydd Nuclear Power Station&#8221;<\/a> by <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/geograph.org.uk\/profile\/185\" target=\"_blank\">John Aldersey-Williams<\/a> is licensed under <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-sa\/2.0\/?ref=ccsearch&amp;atype=rich\" target=\"_blank\">CC BY-SA 2.0<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;ll be adding more content here soon&#8230;
