Are you looking for well-knowns or Original Content?

either. Do you have your own?

i'm not sure why it would have to be angry, but there are manifesto's out there. 4 examples:

1 - 'slowness' by tod williams billie tsien - currently up on their website (twbta.com)

2 - 'thinking architecture', the article not the book (although the article is in the book).

3 - 'critique of industrialization' by leon krier. not on the web (to my knowledge, but in a couple of his books).

4 - 'an incomplete manifesto' by bruce mau. not an architect but...

and that's just 4 that come to mind. you could easily throw in in david chipperfield's book/manifesto 'theoretical practice'. and tschumi's 'questions of space' and koolhaas' 'bigness' essay...

steal this book, abbie hoffman

i don't like mission statements. great post barry

a few years ago ICON magazine published a manifesto issue... some of them are pretty good.

I don't know that he has his thoughts organized into a single self-contained statement, but Lebbeus Woods expresses some original perspectives throughout his writing and blog archives.

also, one of the assignments in the history/theory class that i ta'ed last semester was to write a manifesto... a few of them were really good... i could ask the students who did good ones if they mind if i send them to you if you want... just let me know.

Great suggestions so far. Many thanks!

Architphil, that would be great. Our next studio project will start (in one week) with the students writing a thesis or manifesto and I'm trying to find relevant examples for the 21st century.

a few manifestos that I'm having my class read this week:

have you searched for metamechanic's thread in which he challenged archinectors to submit a manifesto for his self-run competition. 

donna won! 

the original challenge post and the results:

Ask yourself....Is this good for the company? Bill Lumberg, Initech.

thanks Steven. I had forgotten about meta's challenge.

wiel arets has a few essays that may qualify -- an alabaster skin, and virological architecture?

pamphlet architecture is also a good source for the stating of critical positions...though they may be somewhere between manifesto and mission statement...

There's ManTownHuman

There's also Jencks' Theories and Manifestos

I've got this thread bookmarked, it's a great set of resources!

Here's another one, Kio Stark and Bre Pettis' Cult of Done Manifesto.

By the way: whatever happened to metamechanic? He still around under a different name?

Oberhausen Manifesto for the New German film. It led to films by  Kluge, Fassbinder, Herzog, Wenders and and woke up the German arts from post war amnesia. 

"Only Cannibalism unites us. Socially. Economically. Philosophically.
The unique law of the world. The disguised expression of all individualisms, all collectivisms. Of all religions. Of all peace treaties.

Tupi or not tupi that is the question.

Against all catechisms. And against the mother of the Gracos.

I am only interested in what’s not mine. The law of men. The law of the cannibal."

from the Cannibal Manifesto

There was the Melodrama Manifesto about 20 years ago, mostly about film, literature.

Manifesto for the New Nordic Kitchen
