The problem is that the small scale, bottom-up, and eco-friendly moves advocated by Stalking Detroit do not address fundamental issues of social justice and equity that are also part of the foundations of a true urbanity-Shane🙌 #architecturalhistory

[Lucas Stirn @LucasStirn]

Stalking Detroit is valuable for the window it opens onto the emerging world of Landscape Urbanism. Its rich background in landscape ecology- Shane. I believe that Detroit has made a small detour from structure landscape to small community farms #architecturalhistory

these three city morphologies in terms of breakfast dishes.-Shane. That reminds me I need to eat#architecturalhistory

[Lucas Stirn @LucasStirn]

All of Landscape Urbanism’s triumphs so far have been in such marginal and “unbuilt” locations.-Shane #architecturalhistory

[Lucas Stirn @LucasStirn]

European land management principles merged with post Darwinian research on island biogeography and diversity to create a systematic methodology for studying ecological flows, local biospheres, and plant and species migrations- Shane #architecturalhistory

ground for the foul-mouthed but authentically poetic art of alienated white rapper Eminem in the movie 8 Mile (2002). He really mentioned Eminem out here😂#architecturalhistory

Venturi's detail to scale and proportion as seen in the video and his book is very well shown in his multiple drawings trying to find the very best design and proportion #architecturalhistory

[Lucas Stirn @LucasStirn]

Venturi's mother's house is an interesting play on modern and classical forms! #architecturalhistory

[Lucas Stirn @LucasStirn]

The in-depth look at spatial qualities in venturi's book is insane #architecturalhistory

So perhaps at this stage it is that we reach the final but logical degradation of utopian and Millenium dogma- Rowe and Koetter #architecturalhistory

[Lucas Stirn @LucasStirn]

The ideal city, the combination always allowed itself simply to be observed and enjoyed for its own sake #architecturalhistory

[Lucas Stirn @LucasStirn]

Modern architecture is surely most cogently to be interpreted as a gospel, as, quite literally- Rowe and Koetter #architecturalhistory

[Lucas Stirn @LucasStirn]

Bankers got their theories from the same intellectual sources as planners.- Holmes. Money is the root of all evil and when the devil(banks) himself learns the playbook of the angels(planners), the devil has won, and the citizens suffer #architecturalhistory

[Lucas Stirn @LucasStirn]

When all the slums are gentrified and we no longer care about public housing, where will the poor and sick go? We must instill change and end the stigmas! Architecture and Planning will carry us to that land! #architecturalhistory

[Lucas Stirn @LucasStirn]

Even if we had 100 billion dollars to clean up the slums it seems that every time the lower (poor) are pushed farther away to a new kind of slum. I do like what Holmes said about the low-income housing and very much agree #architecturalhistory

raise the issue of whether contemporary theorists and deconstructivist architects have focused too exclusively on formal transgression and negation as a mode of practice. - Mcleod #architecturalhistory

[Lucas Stirn @LucasStirn]

Why is it, exactly at the moment when so many of us who have been silenced begin to demand the right to name ourselves, to act as subjects rather than objects of history, that just then the concept of subjecthood becomes "problematic."-Mcleod #architecturalhistory

[Lucas Stirn @LucasStirn]

form and content or structure and decoration are inscribed within a seemingly fixed, hierarchical structure and then eroded by the second- Mcleod #architecturalhistory

[Lucas Stirn @LucasStirn]

Typology is a term that pertains to both civilization and culture 🤔#architecturalhistory

[Lucas Stirn @LucasStirn]

Some of Frampton's quotes were just an honest mind f*ck #architecturalhistory
