My Blue Sky Curriculum is one that trains students to seek out the smaller local pools of capital in order to fund the re-imagination of our world and culture. I think we need to train students to use their imaginations to embark on architecture and design practices that are not dependent on big capital...Finding architectural opportunities and exploiting them using advanced technological skills and creative problem solving abilities to make new things: this is what we ought to be teaching our students, despite the apparent difficulties and the re-tooling required on our part as teachers.
And then on to gastronomy…wow, this is an excellent lecture.
Funny, when I see Barbara around Silver Lake, Ca....she is more reserved in that "GA-GA", everything is coming up roses article.
