Watched Battle Royale again last night.

It held up to a second viewing. Mostly because of some pretty amazing scenes and dialog. Some of the images from that movie are incredibly surreal. My favorites are when there’s a slow pan across an overgrown landscape with two school kids dying like a campy version of the Hudson [...]

Not sure how I missed this. But it’s great.

Victor and Rolf’s new store in Milan has just one simple concept, executed perfectly. Designed by architect Siebe Tettero with SZI Design in Amsterdam, the store is just killer.
Recently, I saw this site called geosim philly.
Virtual Philadelphia is a leading 3D online virtual city mirrored [...]

This is my first post from Seattle! I’m in company housing in Kirkland. It’s pretty posh, in a corporate way, but I’m comfortable and adjusting well.
Today’s treat is a little video from Erika Janunger a student at the Konstfack College of Art and Design in Sweden. It’s a little cheesy, nothing you haven’t seen before [...]

So the Vampire Weekend concert was awesome. I’ve got their new CD if any of you would like to give it a listen. As a venue, the MFA isn’t the greatest for concerts. (No booze being the biggest bummer.) But they played a really tight concert, opened by crooner Sam Rosen. It was a lot [...]

I’ve been back from my vacation for a week or so. I’ve been buried under an unexpected job search: interviews, a resume and portfolio, etceter-atum. And a putting together the final book for my thesis.
Anyway, in the car today on the way to Staples on the radio, I heard an all a capella version of [...]

Happy New Year Everyone!
I’ve been on massive holiday. And I pretty much still am.
In the meantime, here’s proof that three and half years of architecture schooling have done nothing:

(also, new post up on the scripting site.)

I’m finally finished with my thesis. The review was entertaining, which I think means it was kinda successful. Meejin summed it up by asking why this project could “still make architects uncomfortable”. She was an awesome advisor. When I thanked her for guidance she said [...]

Today was my penultimate review. It was sort of strange. I wasn’t quite ready to present. I was missing large pieces of production (the plans mostly) that made it more difficult to explain the project than if I had done this last minute check next week. I had four reviewers: Yung Ho Chang, Andrew Scott, [...]

This is probably a better post for twitter, but I don’t know if I’m going back there. (Sorry, T)
I’m blogging from Gund Hall at the GSD at Space Rocks, a symposium that Bryan organized. I had forgotten that the AsiaGSD element was going to make this a very Asian presentation, which, honestly, is an odd [...]

Here I am in the midst of an all nighter, using YouTube to listen to music, waiting for a script to run. On any input above 10k, Rhinoscript runs really slowly. I’m trying to process about 100k points with twice that many lines. This is so slow I’m actually beginning to think it’s unnecessary. Anyway, [...]
