There have been so many amazing Archinect School Blogs, but I must say that Nick Sowers' Branner-supported world tour has been especially fascinating to follow. Check out his latest report from a MOUT (Military Operations on Urban Terrain) in Guam.
MOUT is interesting as a mode of architectural simulation like a model of a war-zone. The geographer in me wants to attack the important issues of neo-colonialism and the consequences of building mock-cities of countries we are at war or might be at war with in the near future. But the architect, in the spirit of Bunker Recycling Services, is just fascinated by the potential uses of former military bases.
