what greg lynn...
... has to say nowadays:
1. computer as a MEDIUM rather than as a tool.
2. symmetry is STUPID.
4. GENERIC is not banal.
5. CLASSIC rather tham timeless.
6. all move to LOS ANGELES.
* explanations after request.
i have to say, i never liked his work. i guess lot of people would agree with me.
but i definitely believe that he has been so influential for [new generations of] architects that took his ideas, his thinking and made beautiful work.
many chicagoans had the opportunity to listen to him this wednesday in art institute.
the lecture was little bit too long and he showed so many [ugly] alessi products that i was getting tired but there was a nice feeling after it, because you had this feeling that finally he is realizing his ideas:blobs + blebs by using laser cutters, 3d printers and all the usual suspects.
the innovative greg lynn is also part of the united architects, where some years ago they did this:
1. computer as a MEDIUM rather than as a tool.

4. GENERIC is not banal.
5. CLASSIC rather tham timeless.

orange zest
all architects love orange.
i am wondering if its an after rem effect.
is there anyone [including non-architects] that does not like it?
is it possible not to like it after this post?
