Well…. its been months… i think almost half a year since the last post on this blog.. it just seemed as if there was no desire or interest to run it… plus you’ve gotta factor in workloads and classes etc. So now i figured this sites there anyway and i was surprised by an email i got recently with a comment… so i logged on to check and it seems like occasionally people do come to see the site!!! thats a shock honestly.. also made me laugh quite a bit. So i’ve decided to continue and upload more stuff once in a while, whether or not the others want to.
All of us who started are now in our final year working on our thesis projects(the less said about that the better … is what i think), and are busy most of the day with research although there’s always time for fun. As to the site itself lets see how it goes and hopefully can work towards expanding it and keeping it fresh and interesting.
On a final note an interesting parallel came to mind between this blog and architecture. There is always a gap between intent and final product.. its like a basic law or rule of life… whatever a person intends originally can be warped drastically by multiple factors caused either by oneself (being too lazy to upload a post).. or by the surroundings. how much of our architectural history or even modern day architecture is truly understood.. its all well and good to analyze a final product… but what was the intent and how has it changed??.. It’s food for thought at least… anyone who reads this if you have comments please do add them.
Till later.
And so was I surprised to see an entry here. Though I am quite late to notice it lagging by a month since this came. We did oversleep and forgot about an initiative that we so keenly pursued (credit to the hours we gave to arch.journalism wreaking creativity indeed).
ReplyDeleteBeing said that I cant help notice the absolute relevancy of the variation in the intent and product you talked about. Going back and recalling my designs, the initial "concepts" that I so proudly bragged about seem to take a virtual existence in the final designs. I wish the consistency did remain even metaphorically !
