Architecture is my life. Film is up there too. I was an English major. This photo I took of the CALTRAN (California Transportation) Building in Los Angeles combines the three. It is a strange, ultramodern structure. It has filmic tendencies (the see-through screen.) And it surely makes a linguistic statement with the gigantic number (so everybody can find the address.) Enter my world, and see my vision of the world as overlapping themes…and things.

Mission Statement:

We see everything falling apart now. The institutions we depended on are letting us down. And we have bought those so-called truths and let them shape our lives. I don’t believe in ideas anymore. So, what’s left? Nature. The physical world has laws that hold up…even if mankind’s don’t. We inhabit that world, so we must conform to those laws. I think if we understand those laws, we can correct human behavior to live in harmony with nature. We’re destroying our world, so maybe the solution is to see our place in nature and live with it and so each other.

  • New York in Boston
    Jared and my friend, Alison, gave a lively tour of “New York Streets” today. What was special is that it wasn’t lofty and academic; it was in the plain-spoken language the South End residents (mostly now gone) would have used. There was no whitewashing. How can you summarize an entire neighborhood over two centuries? You… Read more: New York in Boston
