Anyone know anyone who wants to buy over 1,100 books and over 4,000 magazines of C20 architecture history/theory? An instant collection? Some incredibly rare and collectable magazines including Archigrams, Uppercase, Leonard Koren's Wet (the magazine of gourmet bathing), Arts & Architectures etc etc

After playing with Disco Diffusion for a few months, this was one of the very first midjourney images I generated exactly 3 years ago. Prompt: "Sunderland Civic Centre cable car depot sci-fi vray render"

Yeah, that's how it works: (from hicarquitectura.com/2025/03/1214...)

really enjoyed this anti-interview with Le Corbusier, 1962

London peeps - can you tell me where this is please? It's for a thing. Many thanks.

The Manplan exhibition at the RIBA is excellent: www.architecture.com/explore-arch...
Did you know that they planned 20 issues of Manplan, but only 8 were published? Using AI, my students have created what might have been Manplan 21, a 96-page magazine from circa 1973: Manplan RefleXXIon.

It's tough raising autistic kids. They don't play Lego, they build Lego piece recognition and sorting machines.

The most special moment of 2023. We'd cycled for 3 hours through the rain and thought we'd missed the ferry to Tobermory, but pushed on anyway. Fortunately, the ferry left 10 mins late and we just made it. The sun came out and dolphins joined us across from Kilchoan. Amazing moment.

Some student architecture little mags/leaflets my students have done over the years.

Shocking that student exploitation by practices was well known and reported in 1990, and yet nothing done for years and years. Only just beginning to change now.

This is a corner of my very tiny office - my walls are basically lined with these things. One of my students last week said that when he first came in for his first tutorial, he thought, "what is this crazy dude about?!" But I think he gets it now.

Reading "Design, Nature, and Revolution" by Tomás Maldonado (1972) for the first time. Astonishing - could have been written this year. Might base next year's dissertation group on it.

I've been playing with lensgo.ai, training an Archigram model. I like the first Scooby Doo/Ant Farm van and trailer. Not really very convincing, but fun nevertheless.

I'm an architect and architecture historian. How on earth have I ended up on Cell and Nature and The Lancet's marketing email lists?

Wow - I've just met Paolo Soleri's Arcology and it's a wild and exciting and insane and a thing of real beauty
