Follies

... and found myself —imagining houses with feet and personality—animal-like houses and follies.
... and found myself —along with Craig Purcell and Lynda Burke, co-founding and co-editing the experimental, independent architectural journal T3XTURE. The journal creates literary connections with forty-five architects, artists, researchers, and others from the US, South America, Europe, Africa, India, and Asia. The “archizine” explores how aspects of architecture – texture, ornament, and pattern – missing from modern architecture of the past century–connect architecture to people, place, and time. The original concept is inspired by the 1960s periodicals, Archigram, AD, Casabella, and Domus—launched in response to social, political, and artistic changes.
The first four issues were: T3XTURE #1, #2 "Ornament is Splendid", #3 "Pattern is Maddening, " and #4 "The Edge of Edge." Issue #5, "Repose and Motion" is fortcoming from Hapticity Press.
In addition to editing and publishing, Randy was responsible for the publication's graphic design and layout. He also contributes critques, think pieces, and illustrations to coincide with the theme.
... and found myself—transforming my line drawings into form, material, pattern, tectonics, and light, albeit in the realm of ones and zeros.
... and found myself —dreaming about hobby houses—sampling them—living in them—ornamenting them— loaning them to the Titan. Like the hobby horse, these hobby houses are substitutes. They are not houses that provide shelter or that one might physically occupy, however, they function as dwellings [houses] for one's imagination.
... and found myself—imagining towers. To paraphrase Gaston Bachelard, A [sketch] is a bud attempting to become a twig. How can one not dream while [drawing]? It is the pen which dreams. The blank page gives the right to dream.
These sketches are six inches by six inches in size, drawn in a Fabriano Quadrato Artist's Journal with Birmingham Bourbon ink and Prismacolor highlights.
My obsession with "Hegel's Holiday" led to the design of the Hegel's Holiday House.
Who knows, he may even Praise the Dialectic?
