Panacea

Saint Green

…This is not another greenish cant! STAR strategies+architecture unmasks hypocrisy behind sustainability fever, scoffing at the most worshipped architecture's sacred cow.

So because  the guiltier we feel, the greener we try,  there's something irrevent that emerges from a sustainable Cenotaph and an eco-Pantheon, the greener temples ever!
And it goes even more twisted when it comes to Auschwitz camp's houses graciously shrouded with the greenest ivy!
The Green is the common lie, the secret consensus, the perfect crime...

Green has the capacity of reducing all that matters to one single problem, and one single solution: green!
Don't  you feel reassured looking at a green Monumento Continuo? well, if you felt prudish before the naked body of architecture, keep calm: now it's dressed in green! Polite, correct and sustainable…
Green is the new black!

Finally O'Mighty Green will save us all. Even has the power to redeem pornography…so, here comes Green Porno! Isabella Rossellini's sexy short documentaries series…funny and sultry with a twist of surreal.

world's species

Ingo Gunther, worlprocessor catalog 1988-2005

[This is how space begins, with words only, signs traced on the blank page. To describe space: to name it, to trace it, like those portolano-makers who saturated the coastlines with the names of harbours, the names of capes, the names of inlets, until in the end the land was only separated from the sea by a continuous ribbon of text. Is the aleph, that place in Borges from which the entire world is visible simultaneously, anything other than an alphabet?]

"The future of fashion, and the future of consumer products in general, lies not only in more advanced technologies and materials, but also in reevaluating the very infrastructure of design, manufacture, and retail. By blending rapid fabrication, interactive software, and the accessibility of the web, we can let individuals participate directly in the design and production process. 
In short, the "D" collection is actually a piece of software. The D.dress app lets you draw a dress, turns it into a 3D model, and exports a cutting pattern to make the real dress, sized to your measurements. A laser cutter or plotter cuts the pattern out of fabric, which is then sewn into the dress. All the designs are unified around the theme of the little black dress, and the triangulation used in the software. This allows basically everyone to create their own innovative dress design."

“You must not attempt this approach to parallels. I know this way to its very end. I have traversed this bottomless night, which extinguished all light and joy from my life. I entreat you, leave the science of parallels alone...I thought I would sacrifice myself for the sake of the truth. I was ready to become a martyr who would remove the flaw from geometry and return it purified to mankind. I accomplished monstrous, enormous labours; my creations are far better than those of others and yet I have not achieved complete satisfaction. For here it is true that si paullum a summo discessit, vergit ad imum. I turned back when I saw that no man can reach the bottom of this night. I turned back unconsoled, pitying myself and all mankind ... I have travelled past all reefs of this infernal dead sea and have always come back with broken mast and torn sail. The ruin of my disposition and my fall date back to this time. I thoughtlessly risked my life and happiness — aut Caesar aut nihil.”
