Archinect has a thread in the forum- what is architecture? My head, totally inflated from all the retweets of my post on SantaFé(o), compelled me to describe it thus:
Art at its most compromised and corrupted,
Science at its weakest and most debased,
Culture in its least accurate, most inscribed form.
The physical tyranny of economics,
The tangible absurdity of politics,
A sly mirror which reveals too much about what we are and what we want.
In the end, a protest against homogeny, eternity, humidity, and gravity.
