Hi,

Please contact me at my email address as I cannot find yours. I would like to ask you about using your photo in a paper that I am writing as part of my PhD.

Thanks,

it also makes me realize that, if mankind has the ingenuity to solve such complex (and apparently impossible) problems, it could also solve it’s own natural and social problems – if we just apply enough effort on it and channel enough funds to make it happen.

the problem is: it wont generate immediate huge financial profits…

a moral problem, not a technological one.

Awesome blog! I thought about starting my own blog too but I'm just too lazy so, I guess I'll just have to keep checking yours out. LOL,

Comment on high line by rvzkm

the first time i saw this project was at a conference with Elizabeth Diller; i immediately felt things would no longer be the same concerning urban design.

one thing that raises my hopes towards the future is how the High Line came to be – in opposition to it’s demolition: it’s phenomenological experience (with all it’s contradictions – nature taking over the artificial, for instance) was strong enough to motivate a couple of men to fight the odds, with the help of the community, and win the fight.

another impressive thing is the issue of property and land ownership: the High Line occupies both public and private space, going over streets and through buildings in a great juxtaposition with Manhattan’s century-old grid – creating an interesting dialogue with it.

i can only imagine Fritz Lang (Metropolis, 1927) saying: “What took you so long?!?”

Comment on aperture by rvzkm

i’m always amazed when simple things lead to complex and beautiful situations…

how impressive it would be if they made an installation with aperture at the urban scale: the whole part of a city changing it’s image according to it’s environment and it’s inhabitants.

it would surely be amazing!
