Again.My father couldn't even understand what I did for a job. My grand father couldn't even understand what my father did for his job.Everything is "always" changing.The screaming idiots out there are the fools who believed that the world has "ever" stood still.We'll adapt.I am going to introduce you all to a vastly under appreciated multi-media work:"The Oral History Of Modern Architecture" by: "John Peter" ISBN: 0-8109-3889-0, which combines a profusely illustrated book with a CD.I am also give you the URLs to some free podcasts (F_R_E_E, even poor stoonts can afford free,) such as:AIA (the American Institute of Architects,) Architecture Knowledge Review http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=160877729[Architecture] On The Air http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=152487730KCRW's Design and Architecture http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=73330703 Architecture---- "Dancing to Arcitecture" by: "Tris McCall" http://www.myspace.com/tmccallSynthesis:Unlike most of these "The Sly Is Falling" alarmists, I don't see this as a great emergency. Over the next fifty years we will see a lot of changes. If only because almost nothing currently built will still be standing in fifty years and most certainly be rubble in a hundred years.Whether they're changes that we want / need or they're changes that kill us, only time will tell.But the advantage of getting even a passing acquaintance with architecture is that you'll see what the architects will be proposing as things get moving.Right now, they're laying off everybody.The economic melt down is a blessing in disguise.The current crop of employers, outfits like Gensler, URS, HOK, HKS Inc, Perkins+Will, Skidmore Owings & Merrill to name a few, are going to be quite surprised at the creative energy that's actually being unleashed.KCRW's podcasts are quite realistic...---- "Constant Architect" by: "Lejeune" http://beemp3.com/index.php?q=lejeune+constant+architect&st=allWe got PSAs:----Campus Safety urges students, faculty and staff to sign up for text alerts, online @ spc.edu/alertsThis will be used to inform students, faculty and staff in an emergency.This was useful last year in the bomb scare.To sign up, students must know their Spirit ID # (Bring their Saint Peter's College ID.)----Here's a proper, honest to goodness, real promo. :-)Promo_WSPC_PeacockNation2008/12/05----Promo_WSPC_Pauwwow2009/02/01---- "Macroarchitecture - Original Mix" by: "Kernel Drop" http://www.mp3.com.au/Forms/MediaView.aspx?MediaId=108997Synthesis Part DeuxAll of these things, all of these examples of creative destruction, are happening along with an energy crisis, as exemplified by peak oil, alternative energy programs, recycling programs, the exploration of virtual meeting spaces and telepresence, the dying of the printed word and the newspapers that depended on an entire economic model which just doesn't work anymore, and a whole host of other game changers, are the future.---- "The Architects of Faith" by: "The Jade Farrows" http://cdbaby.com/cd/jadefarrowsConclusion:Look to the architects because they are the weather vanes who are drafting the future, quite literally.Of course, the concentration camps of the Nazis had their own architects too.That another reason why you want to watch the architects.---- "The Architect" by: "The States" http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewAlbum?id=258961014&s=143441OutroThe show notes, including the complete text of this episode, and any and all links to the artists featured, are on a server ... somewhere.And this show is also being podcast in m4a format, which means that it you use a compatible player, like iTunes, you get the content divided up into chapters with images and "hot links" to the the web, on the topic of the chapter or to accompany the music.I've stopped asking for your feedback, because I really don't want it.Like the show?
