    So MIT's lecture series this spring semester is pretty bloody good. Cheers to the students and faculty here for putting together such a strong schedule. Here's the list:
    >>>>

    February 27
    François Roche
    “MI(pi)”

    March 1
    Peter Eisenman
    "Beyond the Index"

    March 13
    Richard Meier
    "Richard Meier on Architecture"

    April 3
    Massimo Carmassi
    “Time and Architecture”

    April 10
    Zaha Hadid
    “Total Fluidity”

    April 18
    Glenn Murcutt
    “Process: An Architecture of Response rather than an Architecture of Imposition”

    April 24
    David Adjaye
    “David Adjaye: Recent Work”

    May 1
    Cecil Balmond

    I suggest MIT rename their lecture series topic from "Revolution" to "Sampler Pack."

      FYI Zaha and old peter are the horrible lecturers. I have seen them both twice and wished i did not go, and will not go in the future.

      aside that i wouldn't go to some, like zaha, that's a pretty stacked line-up...who bats in the nine hole?

      but yeah, why call it revolution? how bout aging veteran free agents?

      sorry for all the baseball analogies... pitchers and catchers on friday!

      Murcutt is an amazing lecturer, he moves really quickly.

      wow. is this a "my endowment is bigger than your endowment" face-off with GSD? either way, it's a good semester to be in cambridge.
      eveytime i've gone to see murcutt, he's been a great speaker. his enthusiasm is contagious. i'd love to have had him for a professor.

      who's going to be hadid's lucky boytoy?
