I get around 20 posts from DESIGN-L and when around three quarters of this
volume was Brian's therapy sessions, I began to wonder if architects etc.
on this list should get a life. More monologue than dialogue, more diatribe
than debate.
I am sure I am not alone in being subscribed to other equally lively lists,
and with regular and pesonal e-mail I get around 50 text communiques every
day. Being locked into e-space becomes a burdensome chore if I skip a few
days through work pressures etc.
However, I have said before listees can skip or trash, and yes, lets have
some more snouts raised above the parapet...
Back to the subject. I would to like to hear some views on the encroachment
of the private car into public space - architecture in tides of steel and
toxic wind, private freedom versus public service, and the resultant
relationship of the individual to the urban fabric.
