1. Fill /augury with "equinoctial augury" and finish the story that ensued, i.e., virtual. There is a quotation about augury within Megalithmania.
2. Begin /intention with some musings about intention being more or less useless without some sort of qualifiers. For example, there are good as well as bad intentions. There is no act of murder without the intention to kill. There is also a (fine?) line between intention and motive. Define motive and intention. Is today's architectural design and theory more driven by intention or by motive?
3. Add /extreme to the list of directories. The first topic will be megaliths and an investigation of the imaginations that megalith builders may have had, i.e., an extreme imagination. Modern man, as Heidegger notes, has "forgotten" how the extreme imagination operates. There are also the notions of extreme in today's popular culture: Gehry; extreme sports; the space station.
4. /facading: design buildings where the main facades are a flattened version of oblique facades already within Quondam 's collection; the profile of the facades will be extruded. Variations and developments: mesh extruding one profile into another; bending/folding the facades (vertically); applying new openings to the flat facades; create buildings with a different oblique facade on each side; use the "skin" elevations as flat facades.
5. plan -- so far I'm thinking of just displaying plans that I make up via collage and perspective.
