i love this word.again "...as generally used, the word [venacular] suggests something countrified, homemade, traditional. as used in connection with architecture, it indicates the traditonal rural or small-town dwelling, the dwelling of the farmer or craftsman or wage earner. current definitions of the word usually suggest that the vernacular dwelling is designed by craftsman, no an architect, that is built with local techniques, local materials, and with the local environment in mind: it's climate, its traditons, its economy--predominantly agricultural. such a dwelling does not pretend to stylistic sophistication. it is loyal to local forms and rarely accepts innovations from outside the region. it is not subject to fashion and is little influenced by history in its wider sense. that is why the word [TIMELESS] is much used in descriptions of vernacular building." -J.B: Jackson

i understand what you mean by "timeless"...i accept this form only. we need to argue more  ¶ 08:33 5 Comments

  Fashionable Architecture What does everyone think about this idea, will architecture always follow the fashion of the times, or is it above all of the changing trends of the day. Is good architecture truely timeless as they say, and if so, what are some examples?  ¶ 07:07 25 Comments

  New Clock Tower Apparently they have almost finshed the fantastic new clock tower that will be sitting outside of Seaton. There's a link below, but it sure looks like ass to me. Gotta love the Powercat.

  model[me] ok...so as nerdy as this sounds: i want better selection of model supplies. even for being out here for a couple months...they rock w/ their materials. why can't we have a better selection @ varney's? i say...outside bulk distribution. not go thru varney's...here are our issues with this rant. last year AIAs tried to do that very thing (go independent and save the students some cash on supplies)...shot down under first attempt to get funding from our department. regardless of the savings it would carry on to the students the department...no the college was opposed to any thoughts of that. reason: varney's funds our department on some occasions...like arch. evening. our dpt. doesn't want to cut bad blood w/ them...for that reason? perhaps...why are they not supporting us? breaking deals? i want revolution damit. i want support. i want multi layers of foam.  ¶ 17:37 7 Comments

  item :three "mama said knock you out" all i know, all i know...i'm the disco [infill]trator 4sho.

ok. so we have issues. how are we going to show them that we know about their shit. i find it very interesting that so many issues came to surface right before we all departed. i believe that they know that [ouryear] is a strong one. both in involvement and our "rock star" abilities to swoon the student body. therefore: a structured group of us need to take iniciative and speak for the body @ large.

-we have a short time to make impacts
-impacts must be swift and clean
-flyers, manifestos, full infiltration of our faculity governing body (Dsac, AIAs, NOMAS, ASAB, Dean Advisory Board, etc....)

what is our platform? get bloggin.
