that's one possibility. i think there are many more.

as david byrne says in the architecture segment of 'true stories': (paraphrase) 'these buildings can be anything. just hang a different sign on 'em.'

i would hope for something more than a venturi rehash. byrne, the vitruvian postmodern man himself.

well, it should be said that it was sort of tongue-in-cheek (or maybe serious? always hard to tell with byrne) and that it was about rural texas and that it was about 1986. it's just the mental image i got from vado's comment.

he was driving around in an aries k-car with a white hat, for pete's sake.

David Byrne?

What did Jimi Hendrix say, Spanish Castle Magic?

so the "market economy happened, replacing all former values and erasing almost all ideology over the entire world", yet the profession still chides itself for being unable to "overcome market pressures", does that then make us agents of erasure or resistance? is the overcoming to be accomplished by a genius or is it more of a group effort? what will it achieve? are we reducing our dependency on the attention economy or just deferring our moment in the limelight? would overcoming default to heroism? sounds like we're set up for a utopian addiction. time to fail.
