wish we could be there
It's fun stuff, but I really doubt the city will look anything like this in the next few decades.
It will. Don't take it so literally though.
How so?
why do people consistently insist on sucking the joy out creating? lemme ask you, jla-x, are you done getting your license, yet? lemme ask you, jla-x, you ever heard of a little firm called Archigram? why must you and that other turd muffin, consistently insist on your vision of the world, yo?
I love this project.
B3, its fun stuff like I said. I like theoretical work and even do theoretical work here and there. I love Archigram. Just doubt that it will be decades away like the article claimed.
What does my license have to do with anything?
the scale of this is pretty awesome, love me some modeling.

Some of the images are dead ringers for the film WALL-E.

The Re(f)use City and WALL·E
An MIT scientist and consultant for the Disney film WALL·E imagines a better use for our nation's trash.

just finished "Learning from Las Vegas" again...right after "Fear and loathing in Las Vegas" ...
to re-iterate B3 and Metal's point -
Levittown, suburbia in some cases, government project housing basically are the social result of "modern" architectural thought and intended programs, it's just the elements weren't the symbols modern architects preferred or recognized. How honest is the Seagram Buildings façade right?
cities and suburbs do look like this, the symbols that make you feel all intellectual while leaving my late grandmother cold just aren't present.
