Science, democracy, planning, industry, public institutions, trade unions, education, and infrastructure were all part of this path. The future was something people could build together. Of course, this vision was never as […]

  4. W polskim krajobrazie wszędzie czają się duchy przeszłości. Zwykle ubrane są w modernistyczną architekturę. Pogardzane, zaniedbane, albo co gorsza upiększane na bezgustną modłę. Często są to wciąż czynne ośrodki wypoczynkowe, tak jak ten w Skarżysku-Kamiennej. Ich rozpiż w wielu budzi obrzydzenie. A we mnie głównie nostalgię i jakąś dziwną tęsknotę za przyszłością, która miała nastać, ale nigdy nie nadeszła.

  13. 📺 Arts & Architecture: The Case Study House Program

    ‘West Coast Modernism took hold in Southern California when Arts & Architecture Magazine sponsored the “Case Study House” program.

  14. CW: Pathologic, flesh, YouTube

    Interesting video about #Pathologic, #TwitterLesbians, #Meatus, #Modernism and moar.

    I especially like that it made me thinking about the necessary balance between Techne and Meatus: "cold" science/technology and something I'd call "flesh warm" ingenuity.
