thats beats the shit out of our schedule at UCLA this quarter. enjoy... I'm jealous.
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!
i like that glen murcutt and zaha are right next to eachother. i wanna see a punch up.
Murcutt is an amazing lecturer, he moves really quickly.
he gave a pretty charged lecture my sophmore year at u of Kansas. Looking forward to this semester's.
In Boston or Cambridge? If its MIT, I'm always around ... sigh...
maybe francois will give the same lecture for the 1,999th time.
also like your vivid verbage, dude. charging...
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?
