The Muses Are not Amused

After I read this article, I was surprised and little lost due to author's jargons of architecture and swift transition in explaining processes and others.
(Previous article, "How to draw up a project", was easier and simpler to understand because it dealt with things we have learned, done, and are working on)

Since the second year of architecture program, 'form making vs. form finding' has been an interesting topic for students and faculty members. The author wilingly skips the interesting topic and focuses on "the production of form and the designer's will to produce it within academia".

Throughout the reading, his definition of each case & his thoughts on each trend are clear and convincing. What I agreed most was his depiction of BLOBS. Evolution of technology has helped the field of architecture. However, it also has misguided many of young, potential architects. Kids who do not know how site conditions exist & what people need can make a COOL LOOKING model that pretends to be a piece of architecture.

It is dangerous to know little, and it is more dangerous to follow trends without researching & understanding, especially in architecture.
