alguns links de fim-de-semana
I
It is reasonable to accuse de Beistegui of raiding of an ideal design. But it would be equally fair to defend his rebellion against Le Corbusier’s assault on Paris and his client’s lifestyle. A building can be a statement, but it’s never an abstract piece of art. It has context and it contains the layers of life and activity. After all, clients, the city and its history are not architects’ enemies. (or are they...)
Invasion, no The Bi Blog
II
Trade collapsed, and the nation's infrastructure with it. The health service, long privatised, had become known to the poor as the Death Service, since the government was now only responsible for the minimal duty to dispose of dead bodies. For the few surviving rich, there were regular flights to the continent, from which they returned with new German hips, cataract-free Czech eyes, and all manner of French cosmetic enhancement. Pensions were no longer paid and rubbish no longer collected. Looted and burnt-out shops were a common sight; communities gated themselves in; armed guards protected allotments at night.
Poverty threw up a few improvements, like the renaissance of the canal system. The re-establishment of the old barter system was welcomed by many. But it was the Defence of the Book that caused the most surprise.

Columbus, Indiana: B-Sides, Part 1 e Part 2 no "regressado" (e em força) Mockitecture
um, outro (ou então, não...), "humano" (ainda!?) interessado no Cummins Occupational Health Center!?
agora já só me falta descobrir a alma gémea para o edifício da Olivetti de Iginio Cappai e Pietro Mainardis... (mas essa - ou muito m'engano... - vai a-ser mais difícil que "ouvir" as outras formas de vida naquela mega orelha a construir no deserto da África do Sul ou na Austrália ou lá onde é...)

acresce, por fim - e por falar em ouvir coisas vindas do espaço... - a mais recente lista psicadélica no DB e uns comentários (em defesa da honra do convento lusitano...) que larguei, por aí...
se todos os blogues fossem (era uma chatice...) comó-meu...
