Architectural Balkanology **links fixed**
Posted by axiomatjohn on September 20, 2008
Bruce Sterling, if you don’t happen to know, is the man. Here’s a humorous little interdiction he made on an interesting precis for a show about the urban development and phenomena of the Balkan region. Both Bruce’s comments and the information in the precis are very related to what we’re looking at in terms of the forces, causes, and results of urban crisis.

On a non architecture related note, take a gander at this speech by Bruce that covers all sorts of things from cultural phenomena, psychology, and deep technology:

** fixed links..well maybe not. WordPress is being strange about it. Just copy and paste.

hey guys – to post link, you have to take the redundant step of highlighting the link text in the editor, clicking on the link button, and pasting the URL there. I fixed these two.

This text could easily have a formal entry produced for it. It’s quite relevant. Nice work.
