TEX-FAB's Plasticity is the fourth annual competition that focuses on connecting experimental design practices with industry leaders, while also promoting innovative research in the architectural applications of digital fabrication and parametric design. Out of four finalists, "Plastic Stereotomy" by Knowlton School of Architecture assistant professor Justin Diles was announced as the winner during the ACADIA 2014 conference at the USC School of Architecture in Los Angeles late last week. — bustler.net

Patrick Schumacher called and he wants his bullshit back.
Dear Miles:
I wanted to thank you personally for your insightful critique of my work and thoughtful support of younger practitioners on Archinect.
All the best,
Justin

Justin, thanks for the note. Thoughtful critique? OK.
1) Interesting subject, the study of interlocking geometries for structural purposes.
2) The very least you could do speak English. Obfuscating simple ideas with complex language is elitist and counterproductive.
3) Plastic as a material is poison to life on our the planet. We don't need you to increase The Great Pacific garbage patch, we need you to help make it disappear.
You're welcome. A good education requires many opposing viewpoints.
