As the first semester of the history survey comes to a close, we have discussed a wide range of work – from ancient time telling devices, to burial mounds, temples and pyramids, to cathedrals, palazzi and even theatrical sets. This last blog response asks that you tell me which project, or idea, or book, or moment really, over the past semester did you find most interesting. Name the work, then explain why you think the way you think. Responses must be articulate, accurate, and compelling. This is not about personal taste or preference; it is about stating a position.
To paraphrase David Foster Wallace, this is not just a “Find-Out-What-The-Teacher-Thinks-And-Regurgitate-It-Back-at-Him response. Architecture, as we know, is not like math or physics—there are no right or wrong answers (though there are interesting versus dull, fertile versus barren, plausible versus whacko answers).”
Please post an image made (not taken) and your position (100-150 words) relative to the work.
