Hi
14 years ago
I've nothing much to say but I feel like speaking to 6000 people. Anyway, I'm pretty uptight about school because I've got about 9 days to pull 10 months of research together into one full iteration of an urban design project.
Making things worse is the fact that I'm pinning-up with 5 of perhaps the best UD students in the world today. I'm not as good as them and have only gotten this far because I recant the right concepts about the nested potential of infrastructure and ecology. I also tend to make nice final renderings. Oy.
It's very hard to take abstract ideas about landscape and development patterning, and comparing them to then yield a new synthesis between the two - one that will actually be useful and is not just repeating existing conditions. I know that doesn't make much sense without going into my work, but nobody wants to read a 40 page journal. Part of the reason I can't just project is because a proposal has to be fertilized by process based design.
It's all getting very mind bending. One project seeks to categorize bridge part typologies as quasiobjects which then have predictable agency within the patterning of objects in distant contexts (within the same city). Mine is an attempt to key future ecological scenarios to prepared developement sites across a 300 mile span of desert. Each end is connected by an existing unit of infrastructure reclibrated by the insertion of geofluidical "devices." What a mess.
It's like trying to run through molasses.

Unless you really meant Moleasses... I won't touch that one 8-P
In any case I wish you best :)
Whatever your doing, sounds like it could be simplified, and maybe to you it is xP
By the way, I miss the HECK outta you! D:
Elbow grease fixes everything. WHY ARE YOU KILLING TIME HERE ON FA WHEN YOU COULD BE WORKING!?
Perhaps you are not so bad off i wish you the best of luck.
Good luck~!!!!! you can do it man! ^___^
Exactly
I hope that when you are done, you will provide a link to it.
I also hope that you have geothermal power as part of your project. Hydro (for which the enviros won't permit further development) and geothermal are the only renewable power sources which can compete with coal and natural gas and nuclear without subsidies. Nevada's geothermal power is booming.
