September 12, 2007: Columbia student Mark Bearak is really primed about Ed Keller and his Drift Cinema workshop. Check it out and you’ll understand why. It seems man crushes are on the rise this fall.
September 11, 2007: A friend I’ve known since elementary school lost her husband on 9/11. When AP posted his news item, the most I could do was scan it. There’s a palpable fatigue that results from media saturation, intractable conflict and continual loss of human life. But there is an antidote, at least for me. First, there’s the realization that some of us are bound together by ties that don’t recognize borders, flags or politics. Second, perhaps paradoxically, there’s an election on the way. I know this doesn’t seem like much, but it’s clearly how my hope is defined.
September 10, 2007: Some remarkable advice, admissions and personal histories emerge when a so-called HighSGirl88 wanders in and posts a sincere request for an …Honest Opinion about Architecture. I couldn’t help but wonder if she’d read mdler’s earlier lament about the possible futility of architecture school.
September 09, 2007: barry lehrman attempts to disambiguate “livable communities” and rightly questions whether CNU is cut out for green urbanism. The debate that ensues touches on the dirty realism of urban life, the rise of virtual culture and its implications for emerging social constructs and more. This thread can definitely go places. If you get the urge to add a comment have a look first at Bryan Finoki’s recent post in the news.
N.B.
The dynamics of architect / client relations are well presented here. No Animals Were Harmed In The Making Of This Thread.
Next week: Since joining archinect I’ve twice suffered from IPR (inadvertent projectile regurgitation) while reading forum threads. They say comedy is tragedy plus time. I say archinect humour is that and more.
