Freefall

Went back last night for the rag supper. The first viewing of the presentation always seems the worst; I couldn’t bear to watch the Irenicon video when it was shown for the first time, convinced that it was a far cry from high standards set by my predecessors.

But the Speros video was truly heartbreaking. When you are caught up with something, when you see something everyday, you often lose touch of how good or how bad it is. I did not expect much, but just how bad it turned out to be really pains my heart.

Managed to get to the front of the line, if only momentarily. It may be another long wait before my next chance.

City of Sound – Another architecture themed blog. The article which really caught my eye was one discussing a digital representation of the Kaufman House, perhaps better known as Fallingwater.

I probably will never get a chance to visit the real house in person, and would never able to fully appreciate why this house is so special. But through the effort of an admirer of his work, who combined the power of the map editor for Half Life 2 with the world wide leverage of the phenomenon known as YouTube, the privilege of experiencing a true masterpiece of architecture, even if it is merely a virtual representation, is now available to everyone.
