I try not to post stuff from other blogs on this my blog because I’d like to think you’d come here for just my stuff but but this is an exception. what this guy daniel rossa and urbanscreen did to this kunsthalle in hamburg germany is just rad. their description is “how would it be, if a house was dreaming?”

thanksgiving was great. we (hannah and I) had friends (Gary, Doris, Laura, Jefferson, Nick, Justin, Vivian, Megan, Ikbal, Nathan, Nomes, and Ben) over. There was a lot of food words do not do this justice, i posted some poor pictures which will maybe help. it was a feast night like none other and it was glorious. it basically made me thankful for everything. above is an image of justin cutting some of the enormous turkey we had. I will suggest to kieran hebdan that this should be the new image for whatever next four tet project he does, because look:
here’s his album Pause, it’s the same awesome thing! i think the justin one is awesomer!
Sigh, more pictures after the cut… Details »
We (Justin, Jefferson, Laura, and I) are in this issue of Surface Magazine, which is currently the current one. They profile the White House Redux winners on page 80 check it out! Surface is this design magazine that is sort of the architectural record of design, it’s quite big, and we are all pleased to be included in it. I think it’s issue #74 but I could be wrong because they do weird stuff to the graphics like cut half the number off).
Anyways I’ve included an image of our page after the cut…
I always this may be old news, but Justin put up a great little visual summary of our White House competition entry plus a few shots of the storefront exhibition on his flickr if you’re all interested. (Click the image above for the link) Actually everyone should check it out cuz yeah I think we did alright. There are plans to further archive it somewhere on the web but this is it so far.
To keep it short, the building we live in was sold and the new owner is removing the residential portion of the building, we therefore cannot renew the lease and will have to move out by next Sept. There is a small amount of construction going on in the building currently, and Hannah and I recently explored the open first floor. This used to be a factory where they make pillows. Anyways our heating situation is pretty crappy right now so we found the boiler room. I mean THE BOILERHOUSE…
more after the cut… Details »
Hannah and I have been Brad Neely fans for quite some time now, if you’re not familar with him he did that little washington video where washington is a total badass. Well if you didn’t know he also has a huge collection of even better “brad neely comics” at superdeluxe.com, and they are well worth the look. We quote the professor brothers and babycakes pretty often.
Now I learned yesterday that Brad Neely’s early work included a retelling of Harry Potter, called “wizard people, dear readers” which is played over a silent harry potter and the sorcerer’s stone. We did this yesterday, and was by far 6 million points better than the original. 6 million points for harry potter! griffindor wins!!! It was envisioned as a audiobook of the first book that synced up with the movie. I encourage everyone to watch the adventures of HP, Ronnie the Bear Weasel, Wretched Harmony, Dazzler, Haggar the Horrible, and Hardcastle McCormick. Not to mention Mouthoil and Roast Beefy. It’s quite amazing watching the spectacle to realize how much work was put into it, and the general amount of genius all round. I read that he used to do this live, but got shut down by the man, too bad.
You can download the audio and read instructions here.
Hannah and I went to the village pet store over the weekend, and would strongly suggest you go if you haven’t already. A few bad pictures after the cut.
how come no one ever does cool stuff like this in our country??? damn, we are so f’ing boring.
I want to talk about your post a little more later, but have you seen any other “architecture comics”. I tended to an exhibition at the LA Forum of Wes Jones’ Meet the Nelsons, a rather high brow comic of architecture in the early nineties, referencing derrida et al. in a setting of surreal slice of life suburbia. there’s also some pretty great architecture comic work on archinetc but I couldn’t find it again, and some super random ones here http://www.bigheadpress.com/thearchitect and here http://minisuck.comicgenesis.com/d/20060517.html…
