good media to publish something easily with notes, writing, manifesto, images,

order to write something on a blog for an assignment. This moment also remains
one page of my history on blog.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

on the world wide web’, blog is really a good source to represent about their
own manifesto to architects. Architecture has to get critiques or agreements
from other people including non-architects. There is no development without
discussion or community in architecture. Blogs (not just blog, include social
network such as twitter, facebook, google+, and so on) help to do it in real
time. <o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div>

just write my idea directly, not think about the logic of the writing or a

less philosophy and less organized thinking. </span><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08597438270630078023noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6273042678552119690.post-14103658150102283182012-03-22T01:14:00.000-07:002012-03-22T01:15:11.297-07:00Who the Hell is Natalie?<div style="text-align: -webkit-auto; font-size: small; "><span >I do not follow blogs, but I accidentily got invited into this forum and felt like commenting as that's the true nature of a blog anyways - to interact, communicate, follow, etc. So I apologize if this posting is short, but you can see that I have remarked on a few other postings. </span></div><div style="text-align: -webkit-auto; font-size: small; "><span ><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: -webkit-auto; font-size: small; "><span >One element that I think has not been approached quite yet (in written form that is) is the ability to intertwine different media types into a blog that is so much different than the written manifesto. You may have noticed that I'm kind of anti-blog-as-the-new-manifesto - but the inclusion of media is one of the positive aspects of writing online. Videos, animated GIFs, large format images (that ideally do not ruin the formatting of the blog, thanks Bryan), or sound can be referenced within a written piece. Manifestos can be listened to, rather than read (thanks TED talks). For a manifesto that is largely describing the relationship between film and diagramming, an online forum would allow to make stronger connections by allowing the reader to play snippets of the film. </span></div><div style="text-align: -webkit-auto; font-size: small; "><span ><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: -webkit-auto; font-size: small; "><span >However - In general, architects need editors. This blog is great proof. I think that there is something greatly lost when presenting oneself solely in blog format in comparison to the written manifesto. Manifestos emphasize theory, a new understanding of a process or concept, something that is beyond just exhibiting images of past work. Color me old fashioned, but I think there's still value in the printed word, with emphasis on editing, layout, aesthetics - overall thought process. (A similar argument can be make regarding printed versus computer presentations for studio projects.) </span></div><div style="text-align: -webkit-auto; font-size: small; "><span ><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: -webkit-auto; font-size: small; "><span >While I find blogs and internet findings quite musing and even sometimes incredibly helpful, I am still super embarrassed to post a blog or internet website as a footnote to my research.

On the otherhand, if the posting was more related to a theoretical thought on architecture - I'm still quite hestitate to reference a blog or website because of it's changing nature (though the date would be referenced in the footnote, it would be less powerful if it was retracted the next day due to previous inebriation). </span></div><div style="font-family: arial; text-align: -webkit-auto; font-size: small; "><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"></div>Nataliehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10912232043530944867noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6273042678552119690.post-87612309426767929952012-03-22T00:38:00.002-07:002012-03-22T16:28:54.272-07:00TIME?<!--[if gte mso 9]><xml> <o:documentproperties> <o:template>Normal.dotm</o:Template> <o:revision>0</o:Revision> <o:totaltime>0</o:TotalTime> <o:pages>1</o:Pages> <o:words>611</o:Words> <o:characters>3483</o:Characters> <o:company>Princeton University</o:Company> <o:lines>29</o:Lines> <o:paragraphs>6</o:Paragraphs> <o:characterswithspaces>4277</o:CharactersWithSpaces> <o:version>12.0</o:Version> </o:DocumentProperties> <o:officedocumentsettings> <o:allowpng/> </o:OfficeDocumentSettings> </xml><![endif]--><!--[if gte mso 9]><xml> <w:worddocument> <w:zoom>0</w:Zoom> <w:trackmoves>false</w:TrackMoves> <w:trackformatting/> <w:punctuationkerning/> <w:drawinggridhorizontalspacing>18 pt</w:DrawingGridHorizontalSpacing> <w:drawinggridverticalspacing>18 pt</w:DrawingGridVerticalSpacing> <w:displayhorizontaldrawinggridevery>0</w:DisplayHorizontalDrawingGridEvery> <w:displayverticaldrawinggridevery>0</w:DisplayVerticalDrawingGridEvery> <w:validateagainstschemas/> <w:saveifxmlinvalid>false</w:SaveIfXMLInvalid> <w:ignoremixedcontent>false</w:IgnoreMixedContent> <w:alwaysshowplaceholdertext>false</w:AlwaysShowPlaceholderText> <w:compatibility> <w:breakwrappedtables/> <w:dontgrowautofit/> <w:dontautofitconstrainedtables/> <w:dontvertalignintxbx/> </w:Compatibility> </w:WordDocument> </xml><![endif]--><!--[if gte mso 9]><xml> <w:latentstyles deflockedstate="false" latentstylecount="276"> </w:LatentStyles> </xml><![endif]--> <!--[if gte mso 10]> <style> /* Style Definitions */ table.MsoNormalTable {mso-style-name:"Table Normal"; mso-tstyle-rowband-size:0; mso-tstyle-colband-size:0; mso-style-noshow:yes; mso-style-parent:""; mso-padding-alt:0in 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt; mso-para-margin-top:0in; mso-para-margin-right:0in; mso-para-margin-bottom:10.0pt; mso-para-margin-left:0in; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman"; mso-ascii-font-family:Cambria; mso-ascii-theme-font:minor-latin; mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-theme-font:minor-fareast; mso-hansi-font-family:Cambria; mso-hansi-theme-font:minor-latin;} </style> <![endif]--> <!--StartFragment--> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt"><span style="Minion Pro""><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;font-size:85%;">I find the most interesting aspect of the architectural blog to be its relationship with time. Perhaps this is just because I’m coming off a string of all-nighters and no longer have any concept of the thing, but I digress. A blog has a unique relationship with time, and this seems to be the most notable thing setting it apart from traditional monigraphs and manifestos. Since a blog is typically written and published by an individual, it doesn’t have to pass through an editor first. This means that there is no lag time between the moment when an idea is created and written down, and the moment when that information is dispersed to a larger audience. Blog entries can be posted much more frequently as a result, enabling the author to cover a wider range of topics based on whatever seems interesting on that particular day. The blog becomes a never-ending book, with each post adding a new chapter to the blog’s growing history. As readers, this is exciting because we can’t predict exactly what will be covered in future blog posts; we’ll have to keep checking back to see. Although blogging is a more recent phenomenon, some of the blogs we’ve looked at today have been in action for almost 10 years, making for a great deal of history. The archives section of the blog then takes on a new meaning; it allows the reader to essentially travel back in time and uncover trends in the blogger’s changing interests and opinions.</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt"><span style="Minion Pro""><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;font-size:85%;">The “tag” seems to be one of the most interesting ways that the relationship between blog and time is highlighted. As each new blog entry is posted, the author can assign it a tag based on what specific topics are covered in the entry. Readers can then click on any of the tags and access all of the blog entries about that topic, dating from the present all the way back to the creation of the blog. This is a more specific way of delving into the archives of a blog; by focusing the search on a specific topic, it becomes easier to observe trends and interests. Many blogs today feature a visual list of tags in the sidebar, where the tag headlines with more posts appear as larger than those tag headlines with fewer posts (example: Ron’s 85 posts about rammed earth indicate to me that he’s been interested in that topic for a long time, I think. <a href="http://www.eartharchitecture.org/index.php?/plugin/tag/rammed+earth">http://www.eartharchitecture.org/index.php?/plugin/tag/rammed+earth</a>).</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt"><span style="Minion Pro""><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;font-size:85%;">So far I’ve only talked about time as it relates to the author, but some blogs go further and address both sides of time—the moment when the author creates a post, and also the moment(s) when the visitor reads the post. Liam Young’s blog is a really interesting example of this, since he categorizes all of his entries by how long it takes both to write and read them. His “Fast Thoughts” column is primarily announcements about upcoming events—it probably only took him a minute to post, just like it only takes us a minute to skim through and get the specific details. The “Slow Thoughts” column, in contrast, contains more in-depth musings that are more like essays and require thoughtful reading. This categorization of posts based on a temporal measure adds another element into the mix, because it introduces the notion of short-term time. Most blogs are organized by long-term time (i.e. Geoff Manaugh and Lebbeus Woods both divide their posts by what month they were written in), but <i style="mso-bidi-font-style:normal">Tomorrow’s Thoughts Today</i> instead focuses on the reader’s notion of short-term time. We must now ask ourselves, “Do I have 5 minutes to read a Slow Thought, or do I only have 30 seconds to squeeze in a Fast Thought before running out the door?”</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt"><span style="Minion Pro""><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:georgia;font-size:85%;">I only have time to squeeze in one more Fast Thought of my own before I fall asleep, so here we go: my favorite blogs are those that seem like a continuous stream of thought—almost as if the author is just talking directly to you, without any filter. These types of blogs often change direction in the middle of a post, just as a normal conversation does. The blog posts are therefore almost broken down into separate thought bubbles, and as you read the blog, you can feel yourself passing from one temporary moment of thought to the next. </span><o:p></o:p></span></p> <!--EndFragment-->Caitlin Alevhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14098351143043307158noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6273042678552119690.post-23763180176779214892012-03-22T00:24:00.002-07:002012-03-22T00:24:30.769-07:002.7 hours from 21:35 mar 21th to 0:21 mar 22th<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">

Manifestos seem so absolute - a public, didactic declaration of one's thoughts and views - clearcut and unyielding. Blogs, however, die without constant update. Would anyone read a blog with just one entry, dated decades earlier? What goes viral on the web lack any of the characteristics of a manifesto - (Ass Pennies* vs. Vers une architecture).<br /><br />Yet because of the ability to constantly update, the blog is more suited to he true purpose of the manifesto: expressing one's thoughts and views. How many of the manifestos and monographs have we read have the authors' work or later publications modified or retracted what they originally declared? How many times are those edits heeded or mentioned? The published manifesto is static, a declaration in time with a tendency to speak for all mankind. The blog is personal, the reader is always aware that someone typed these words out on their laptop or PC, possibly drunk, possibly in their underwear. And if your blog is open to comments, your manifesto can be immediately detracted, criticized or flamed by anyone - ANYONE - and given that they are in the same medium, comments are automatically on the same level as the blog post. Any criticism of published manifestos aren't attached to the actual document. <br /><br />So in random and personal rambling, I'm just going to throw out there with no evidence or three supporting points, that maybe the blog is a democratizer/humanizer and with access and inundation of everyone's** thoughts, the publication of one person's thoughts are de-deified and more open to contestation (that is a real word. I checked.) <br /><br />*I do not mean to detract from the value of Ass Pennies at all.<br />**"everyone" with access to a computer and internet. Which is not really everyone.mlehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17607000571750574274noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6273042678552119690.post-12671644430455754722012-03-21T23:09:00.006-07:002012-03-21T23:18:57.151-07:00Did

be illegible to produce garbage run on run away useless unedited drivel with or without punctuation or point no thesis no direction no audience with the idea that people will read your words and be moved moved to act moved to think moved to do better or more or less that publication as it mattered once before still matters only now it’s available to everyone and its free and accessible and anyone who has an idea can get it out into the world without having to go through the gatekeepers the fatuous publishers the tastemakers the style police the authorities on all that is right and good and worth while what a waste how much better to let it be open and free and like milk the cream will rise to the top and people will recognize what is worthwhile and meritorious from the millions and millions of other blogs and notes and posts trust in the crowd trust in the hive it doesn’t matter if you have ability or talent you simply have to do whatever you’re doing already publically and find your true community online and share your experiences your daydreams your passing thoughts your need for connection your longing your ignorance or irreverence your indifference who cares about accuracy and credibility your people will trust you and you will find trustworthy people and you won’t get duped or fooled and if you do it will be interesting and funny and because it was genius and inspired and original you won’t feel the knife go in and it’s so much better than the tedium of journalistic writing anyway and besides no one would ever publish what we have to say these days so what is the alternative we have no choice this is what we can do and it’s free or mostly free and that is what makes it valid and worth pursuing and the skeptics are fuddy-duddies anyway from a bygone era and what they have to say about the smell and feel of newspapers and books is completely silly and irrelevant since they’re cutting down trees to make that paper anyway and cutting down trees is bad and lousy and we really shouldn’t do that anymore so let’s just get out and take pictures of the things we like and make movies of ourselves doing stuff and make montages and say things that make us seem smart and curious and interested and interesting and disinterested in marking and selling what we do and talk more about other people’s work than we do about our own so that people see us as helpful critics since it’s impossible to keep a blog going that is only filled with your stuff because making stuff takes time and blogs need to be curated daily so who cares if the blog becomes a kind of second job or pursuit just don’t imagine you’re ever going to make any money doing it or that you’re going to develop a business or brand or monetize on content or gain any real media exposure or even get a book deal or get bought by a larger company because I read somewhere online today in someone’s blog that in 2010 there were 300 million websites and 300 billion emails sent out each day 90% of which was spam and 100 trillion emails a year 2 billion internet users worldwide and 150 million blogs on the internet and 25 billion tweets and 10 million people following @ladygaga on twitter and that she is the most followed user on twitter and it seems discouraging that the largest online personalities are also the largest real life personalities but it doesn’t matter because we hear about people all the time who just did this thing out of their kitchens and did it on the side and one day they made it big because of their blog or whatever and they developed a loyal following and those people supported them when they became famous and recognizable even though they stopped using their blog at that point and one day if you do your blog really well you can stop writing too and perhaps you’ll get a book published that people will ignore but maybe I’m just being negative because I don’t have a blog yet and this is going to be my first blog post ever and it’s all about how useless blogging is and what if someday I actually discover that I need a blog since I can’t afford to have a book published or if I do publish a book that no one will read it or that no one reads anymore and it’s all just videos and talking heads and spoken word and everyone markets themselves by sourcing other people’s lives and I can’t market myself because someone finds this blog and posts it to my website and my followers or subscribers or clients or friends or whatever decide that I’m a turncoat and abandon me and my business fails and so I think I should publish this anonymously but if I do I won’t get class credit for it so I’m caught between needing credit and not wanting to be credited and it’s driving my a little nuts and then I think that the only real truth in all of this is that no one is actually reading this blog anymore because it’s too long and because it’s crazy and no one reads crap like this because they really shouldn’t and the joke is on you if you’re still here and so I could say anything at this point and it wouldn’t matter and perhaps this would be a good place to say something meaningful like what I really care about as a designer or perhaps include a manifesto but then again no one would read it and I guess that’s kind of my point and I want this to fill the entire page but I’ve run out of things to say and so I’m just going to keep writing so it looks like a full page since it’s really not about words anymore and that’s really the point to remember<o:p></o:p></span></p>

and That<span style="font-family: verdana;">From two years ago, but still relevant, <a href="http://culled.tumblr.com/post/327634577/curation-culture">Archive and Conquer on the "curation culture" </a>that dominates today's art and design blogs. Swimming through the world of tumblrs - whether <a href="http://stevenreinmuth.tumblr.com/">this</a> one or <a href="http://betonbabe.tumblr.com/">this</a> one or <a href="http://thestwrd.com/">this</a> one, or even <a href="http://www.them-thangs.com/">this</a> one - or limited membership image boards, like <a href="http://ffffound.com/">ffffound</a>, or image-heavy blogs, like <a href="http://www.dezeen.com/">dezeen</a> and <a href="http://www.spaceinvading.com/">space invading</a>, can be a perfectly lovely way to spend an hour. But it always leaves me feeling slightly sick. It's super-condensed visual aesthetic excitement in an easy to consume format. Like drinking <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Port_wine">port</a> and listening to <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dO8PA7ZnHf0">eurodance</a>, it's best done late in the evening when you're already a little buzzed. <br /><br />Curatorial blogs can be wonderful when done well, like <a href="http://www.thingsmagazine.net/">things magazine</a>. But things is run by a group of former and current curators from the Victoria and Albert Museum. It's run by professionals and it feels like it.<br /><br /><a href="http://bldgblog.blogspot.com/">Geoff Manaugh</a> proved that you could blog your way to respect and authority in the architecture world (and a teaching gig at Columbia), but I wonder if it would be possible to tumbl your way to the same position? Could you run a tumblr that exercised such charmingly insightful collecting and achingly exquisite taste that you were invited to teach a studio at Princeton? Or could you demonstrate such a vast knowledge of so many different obscure veins of architectural practice that MIT invited you to teach history and theory? <br /><br />Maybe collections of images on microblog platforms shouldn't be judged by their value for public consumption but instead by the educational value their offer their proprietors. A few months ago Jelena and I decided to start <a href="http://tech.dailybuzz.com/blog/10896-surprise-hit-pinterest-a-top-10-most-trafficked-social-network">Pinterest</a> accounts and see who could get the most repins, likes, and followers with our architectural taste. It totally changed the way I looked at architecture online. Suddenly the bar for what I liked became much higher. I actually stopped and thought about whether or not I really liked things, and, most importantly, what the <a href="http://thenextweb.com/socialmedia/2012/02/15/meet-the-top-male-user-on-pinterest-who-doesnt-work-for-them/">Pinterest community</a> might think of them. I looked at images much less passively and much more thoughtfully. <br /><br />Neither of us racked up an especially high number of repins and likes, but I think we did pretty okay for only being at it for a day or two. The contest quickly devolved into posting pictures of foxes and red pandas so we decided to stop. I think Jelena came out slightly ahead. She deleted her account a while back but my page is still kicking around <a href="http://pinterest.com/scottewart/">here</a>.<br /><br />

Reading, looking and listening, not writing. It was a few years back, when I had frequently featured on a community radio show for a brief period of time in Melbourne (not quite a claim to fame) and was constantly in search for not only new music but the opinion of said music, as readily offered by trusted aficionados. I was also quite partial to building road bicycles and was consequently a frequent visitor to blogs such as <a href="http://fixedgearbikes.blogspot.com/">http://fixedgearbikes.blogspot.com/</a>, etc etc. These blogs served to expand my knowledge in my areas of interest by exposing me to the work and opinions of others, which in turn influenced the decisions I made regarding what to emulate, desire, promote, avoid and of course, what to play on my show.</p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal; font-family: Georgia, serif; ">After relocating to Berkeley, my lust for blogs in general waned rapidly and I wondered if it had just been a passing fancy. However, my interest was reignited last October when I obtained a press pass to the CMJ Music and Film Marathon (for the hell of it but really under the guise of a music correspondent for the Melbourne radio station) in New York, which is a showcase of upcoming artists in combination with shows from well known performers, held every year for one week across a hundred or so venues in Brooklyn and Manhattan. Over 1000 artists were scheduled to perform and I was familiar with about 200 yet would only have been able to write knowledgably about 60-ish. A definite problem for me, when trying to decide whom to see, let alone critique or interview and true testament to the extents of the global market for popular culture. ‘Trustworthy’ music blogs yet again served their purpose in informing my decisions. Interestingly, throughout the course of the event, the notoriety of blogs and bloggers was consistently revisited, from conversations with Pitchfork writers at press events and panel discussions held by major labels that targeted the relevance of blogging to the industry, to the poignant sentiment of up-coming ‘grimewave’ (a genre… apparently) avant –rap artist, Cities Aviv in the intro to his seminal track, ‘Fuckeverybodyhere’: “<i>Fucking bloggers, you fucking made me and you’ll fucking break me. Fuck you bloggers. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck everybody here…”</i>.</p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal; font-family: Georgia, serif; ">Of course, parallels can be drawn between the mode of delivery, content and function of music blogs and blogs of virtually any specific area of interest, be it kite surfing or architecture. Due to the proliferation of digital media, blogging has become a widely disseminated forum for information, and though often unique in their content and format, the majority of blogs share a number of typological or functional characteristics. For instance, there are blogs that serve mainly as a means or promotion or advertisement, such as the well-known archdaily.com or archinect.com, whom, while providing opinion via the selection of work represented, mainly serve to describe projects through the documentation of their creators. Akin to music blogs like thehypemachine.com, these showcase the extents of work produced internationally, as curated by those, we can presume, with taste. Such blogs play an integral dual role for researchers, artists, and designers alike, as a free, highly accessible means of promotion and inspiration. The second category is defined by an emphasis upon critique and opinion – the author’s personal opinions and the opinions of others as re-iterated as seen in <a href="http://lebbeuswoods.wordpress.com/">http://lebbeuswoods.wordpress.com/</a> or http://www.new-territories.com/blog/– and despite endemic subjectivity, provides validation of our own position as contextualized within the opinions of others. This typology bears closer resemblance to the blogs precursor, the manifesto; characterized by rampant opinion and polemic discourse.</p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal; font-family: Georgia, serif; "><span style="font-family: Cambria; ">As is typical of </span><span >manifestoes</span><span >, bloggers often make claims to speak on behalf or a broader practice or provide disclaimers to the contrary. However, unlike the printed manifesto, whereby publication and dissemination are typically tied to the writers professional, academic, political, socio-economic or cultural status, the bloggers authority is typically defined through a ‘hits per site’ basis, where a greater audience leads to notoriety- indicating that credibility is gained through popularity as opposed to expertise. As understood and clearly articulated by Cities Aviv, the influence of blogs to shape both individual opinion and the collective sentiment of a profession places authoritative bloggers in a position of power– where the influence of the blog is simultaneously coveted yet feared. However, despite their sometimes-overwhelming influence, certain qualities of the blog such as its perceived transience and often-unmediated content undercut any delusions of grandeur that may be harboured. For instance, you wouldn’t cite a blog in an academic paper unless you were specifically writing about popular culture or really didn’t know any better. The opinions expressed in blogs are typically treated as ephemeral; fleeting glimpses that can be removed or revoked at any moment.

To another blog of course as such is the nature of these things. This is the blog of a good friend of mine who is an industrial designer. It’s called Atlas and it’s pretty great if you’re into looking at beautiful things in muted, complimentary tones: </span><a href="http://feltednebula.tumblr.com/">http://feltednebula.tumblr.com/</a></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal; font-family: Georgia, serif; "><br /></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal; font-family: Georgia, serif; "><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal; font-family: Georgia, serif; "><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal; font-family: Georgia, serif; "><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p> <!--EndFragment-->Stasiahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16239398077343511152noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6273042678552119690.post-46308857939056559382012-03-21T20:16:00.003-07:002012-03-21T21:22:05.472-07:00None<span style="font-family: verdana;">Does the blog format itself influence the architectural ideas its author wants to communicate? How do the media of the web shape the content of the discourse? The web makes everything less formal. I would never start an essay with a question - let alone two - but somehow it feels okay in a blog entry. Of course I've never had a teacher critique the format and style of my writing on a blog (maybe this week I will). Blogs seem at their best when they're a bit off the cuff, just a bit unpolished. The best architecture blogs read like the curious musings of a very intelligent and naturally eloquent individual. They should be well-written and easy to read, but also just hesitant enough - a kind of 'hey, this is just a blog, I'm just thinking out loud here' tone - that you feel you're getting a special insight into their thoughts and creative process. Good architecture blogs offer a combination of intellectual stimulation and gentle voyeurism in just the right proportion to win the battle with the back button. </span>Scotthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07719946974086665288noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6273042678552119690.post-57767447402678038652012-03-17T23:04:00.004-07:002012-03-17T23:31:11.009-07:00Uses of the Architectural BlogIf this seems confusing, it's probably because I'm not a very good blogger. One annoying thing about blogs is that they're chronological, so you should really read the first blog post before you read this one and then read the comments on that post where Michael and I listed a bunch of blog entries to read. <br /><br />In addition to the questions we asked on the first post, I am also curious how blogs serve various architects, for example: <br /><br /><a href="http://www.new-territories.com/blog/">François Roche</a><br /><a href="http://lebbeuswoods.wordpress.com/">Lebbeus Woods</a><br /><a href="http://www.eartharchitecture.org/">Ron Rael</a><br /><a href="http://www.tomorrowsthoughtstoday.com/">Liam Young</a><br /><br />and how they differ or complement other books and texts from the same architects. We are hoping to contextualize the blog in relation to manifestos and monographs. <br /><br />You should, of course, write your paper here as a blog entry. And please post other interesting blogs for us to look at.Marishahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04896807034926259565noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6273042678552119690.post-73677857078910357422012-03-16T12:21:00.002-07:002012-03-16T12:28:24.164-07:00Monographs, Manifestoes and BlogsHow do blogs define an architectural attitude? Are architectural blogs :<br /><br />Curatorial projects?<br />A collage?<br />Journalism?<br />The new manifestoes?<br /><br />Can a manifesto, manifest as a dialogue (in blog comments?) <br /><br />Many architectural bloggers don't have any built work to point to. Rem Koolhaas did not have a built project until 16 years after he finished his formal studies, <a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lille_Grand_Palais">Lille Grand Palais</a> <br /><br />Read these blog posts; post other blog posts that you think will inform the conversation.Michael Berginhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09136837735992619359noreply@blogger.com5
