Vanna Venturi House's new owner plans to preserve property
I seriously wonder whether it's really all that important for the Vanna Venturi House to be preserved "as it has been maintained thus far." This building is already so well documented and so well known by so many people that haven't even been there that preservation seems thusly to lose much of its point.

Vanna Venturi House's new owner plans to preserve property
...right now I'm only thinking about the Vanna Venturi House, and not (yet) thinking of any broader implications. I just couldn't think of any real compelling reasons why it's important that the house remain preserved "as it has been maintained thus far." Can you think of any compelling reasons why it's important that the house remain preserved "as it has been maintained thus far?"
Or, let me put it this way: can you think of any compelling reasons why it's important that the house remain preserved "as it has been maintained thus far" that isn't based on somehow maintaining control?
Regarding documentation, the modern era itself could well be called the era of overwhelming documentation. Centuries old buildings are preserved primarily because they are among the relatively scant remains/documentations we have of past times. Conversely, the Vanna Venturi House is (literally) voluminously documented, indeed to the point where the documentation has a much more far-reaching influence than the building itself.
Personally, if it were my design, I'd make the working drawings of the house available for sale so that who ever wanted their own version of the house could actually build/have one. And it'd be preservation without control, because I'd like to see how different buyers might make changes or additions to the design to suit their own taste or needs.

Tom Wiscombe redesigns the L.A. billboard (and is chosen over Zaha Hadid's proposal)
Interestingly, Blade Runner depicted Los Angeles in November 2019, and Blade Runner 2049 is set for release October 5, 2017. Too bad they probably won't be able to advertise the new movie the way things were advertised in the first movie. Or will they?
Actually, it'd be way cooler if they advertised the new movie the way things are advertised in the new movie!

Apparently, in the future, some very special doctors will tell me that my frontal and prietal lobes and my hippocampus often operate in the exact opposite way they're supposed to. To which I will then ask, "So, instead of mentally reenacting an experience, they enact something that hasn't happen yet?" To which the doctors will all give me the thumbs-up! Hence:

Immediately I think of the Strasbourg, Düsseldorf, Hurva composite building that I have created in 3d model form, and I would like to sometime in the future elaborate on how the composite is perhaps an analogous building.

Perhaps sometime in the future all architects will come to realize that software which is "customization-friendly" is more valuable than software that is "user-friendly".

2000.03.16 "I, Marcel Duchamp, sometime (drag) artist, fully INTEND for this urinal to stand as a monument to all those who gleefully piss their time away wondering about art, particularly art like this. In the future, everyone will piss for fifteen minutes."

In the future, all reality will be recorded by a camera, because if it isn't captured by a camera, you can kiss that reality goodbye.

Having now taken a closer look it is hard to say whether Koolhaas is smiling (or at least as close to a smile that Koolhaas can get to) because of Prada or because he just got to say on TV that perhaps in the future all architecture "will be embedded in a casino."

...a virtual museum of architecture

institutional critique, even (perhaps a virtual museum is what a real museum cannot be)
voices
continually reshaped
agendas
globally readable
cada coda
architecture as the delivery of content

2013.05.23 09:59
(Although I very much doubt I'll personally get to see it, nevertheless) Could someone that inherits all of Quondam's 2D and 3D file data someday in the future decide to 3D print it all out and thus make an actual Museum of Architecture?!?

"In the future, all education will be an advertisement."
"In the future, every generation will be defined by product placement."


2014.02.18 13:54
In the future, some world organization will survey every person on the planet with the question:
Outside of your own profession (if you have one), what profession is most effective at and/or most capable of improving your life?
After the results are published, architects the world over are outraged that their profession was never mentioned, not even once.
