Points + Lines: Diagrams and Projects for the City

this is one of the comments on amazon.com
"This book contains some of the more useful thoughts published on diagrams to date. Although many architects frequently refer to diagrams as a methodology, Stan Allen has made them one of the focal points of his work. This book and his lectures often excite controversy over the way in which architects use diagrams. Diagrams have a kind of potential energy which can be interpreted in a number of ways to generate a piece of architecture. The book Points + Lines introduces ideas with which every student should be familiar and which each architect should address. Stan Allen makes a refreshingly clear delivery of his ideas in a contemporary architecture culture of overcomplication, vacant formalism, and thoughtless commercial production. We can only hope that the author's relatively young age will privelege us with the production of more written work. "

A short description about a course at the KSA called "Diagrammatic" and an essay about the misinterpretation of datascapes in architectural discourse entitled "It's probably not a datascape." Posted here:

it's that time of the academic quarter when I'm revisiting my project instructions for the next term and so worth dragging this thread out of the attic.

Page one of this thread refers to Michael Sorkin, who sadly died due to Covid in spring. Here is a graph charting excess deaths this year compared to the previous five years.

There was this idea that other deaths were seeing a marked decline, or those deaths were being reclassified as covid. The information is coming out to put that nonsense to rest, finally.

if only proving people wrong with factual information was sufficient to change minds...
