Boring
Icon Magazine has September's issue now online, featuring a piece called, simply enough, boring.
The list includes:
:: Sustainable design :: Prefabrication :: Modernism :: Glass Buildings :: Blobs :: The debate about [building] icons :: China :: This post [my addition] :: Public space :: Innovation
I meant my post, not the article. I agree it has some nice points, though in some ways the "boringness" of the things has more to do with their dissemination (media, web pages, journals, etc) than the things themselves.
bitching about anything that doesn't have a direct affect on your life at a personal level. i.e. writing a complaint article about other things in a magazine.
Actually, the article is not boring :)
ReplyDeleteIt has some nice points in some of the topic. I don't agree with all of them but it's interesting to see those topics from a different point of view.

Boring was too funny. My favorites were prefab and glass. They should go on the road with that routine. Maybe Blue Comedy Tour or something.
ReplyDeleteBut seriously folks...
Glass buildings are nice for photography!
