Foxtrot's Geek Halloween Costume 2006





Im may have to change the name of this blog, some of these posts have nothing to do with architecture, but rather technology. I am a huge fan of Bill Amend and his foxtrot comic, and its time for the Foxtrot's scary geek Hallowe'en costume, 2006 edition. There are regular references to Apple and Tech, one of the best is the reference to the famous ipod commercials.

Some of the heavy hitters will be there Google, Microsoft, Intel, and the list goes on. So hopefully lots of conference goodies. More updates and goodies from the conference later.

ACADIA Conference






Well, ACADIA is almost over my presentation has come and gone, and exhibition of the work is open. Some of the work at the conference is the best I have seen, although sadly there is not much talk of sustainability. There seems to be more emphasis of algorithmic architecture, and not much on the inhabitation of space. Next year holds promise but that remains to be seen, hopefully sustainability will be more emphasized.

Yet More From The Display Case: Almost Finished






Well im almost done, i still have lighting and shelving to go but im almost done. Things never go as planned, I tried my best to keep things plumb and square but even a 1/32" screws things up. After days of fine tuning I finally finished the bottom and top panels. More to come soon.
