I am starting a new thread that is about other threads. You can talk about other discussions taking a place in Archinect and make cross references to a particular link, picture, response and whatever else you deem necessary or entertaining or thought provoking about the other thread. thus the name: Thread Central
here are some examples of comments that comes to mind:
* hey did you read on --------- thread ------- thinks frank gehry is good. hahahaharhar..
or,
*i can't believe he said that. how stupid of him. asshole.on top of it he is got hundreds of posts. gimme a break.
or,
* this is the best thread.. fuck the others..
or,
*****Thread Alert******
read the -----thread yet??? there is a dog fight going on between ----- and-----.it is about gondolas and pollution in Venice..see you there.
or,
* yeaah, i don't read that thread either. its kind a boring.
or,
*i am thinking about starting a discussion about ------------- ---- ---- will you guys in Thread Central post in it and say wow it a great thread?. it was about time 'somebody' (insert my name please) picked up on it.. and discuss it?
like whatever..

the interesting thing is that all these pieces came from "modernism" that was supposedly inspired and influenced by the mechanization of the manufacturing industry. things were supposed to be able to be massed produced at a low price. i mean c'mon. corbu was obsessed with that stuff.
in the end though. there's still an issue of "craft" and "design" which ultimately make a few pieces of leather and chrome tubing rediculously expensive. (maybe after the 75 year copyright rule comes to fruition, we'll see less expensive furniture w/ decent quality for sale?)

Special recognition to RA Rudolph who is celebrating her first ever Mother's Day as a mother this year! (I know she won't read this because with a enew baby she hardly has time to brush her teeth let alone come to this forum - though I did see her being her usual helpful self over on the thread about residential code in CA recently, I think).
For Mother's Day, my husband took our son to a hot rod show, leaving me at home to get some CAD work done - yay!

Here's the funny thing about being self-employed: I'm working from home, and I'm wearing a very cool suit, high heels, jewelery the whole deal, as I had a meeting this morning and another this afternoon. But it's like 50 degrees in the heartland and we turned off our furnace weeks ago so it's chilly in the house - so to keep warm while sitting at the computer I put on my fleece bathrobe over my suit.
It's a total architect look! Functional yet irreverent! Next thing you know this is how Joshua Prince-Ramus will be showing up to pesentations!

May 15, 06 10:03 pm
Aw, adso, I'm sorry, I don't really have general disdain for printmakers - just the printmakers I was in school with were not the smartest group of people I'd ever met. Then again, they do know how to make prints, which is something like moldmaking that I can't quite figure out linearly, though I have a sense of how it works.
And, I've also said several times that some of my most prized possesions are my prints by Ben Woodward, similar to this:

Done for tonight, sent drawings off to pick up tomorrow.
Yes tons of work, the next three weeks will be hideously busy, then I'll be gone (but working even harder than I am now no doubt!) for three weeks.
Good potential news here, it seems the decorator show house I was working on is being bought by some large entity and they want to buy every single thing in the house - we're looking at a tidy commission on some great antique and modern furniture, plus I had installed one of my husband's sculptures on the wall and it may sell too!! Kind of a bummer as it's one of my favorite pieces by him, but the sale price w/o gallery commission is sorely needed right now.
Sorry about all the inspections in the blistering sun sporadic. Put on your sunscreen and a big hat! And drink drink drink (I mean water you silly guy!). Have a good day. Goodnight.
