a special fuck you to these four fuckwits today! the faces of genocide. arthur phillip, the one who established the colony and invaded the land, lachlan macquarie, the terrorist mass murderer (why the FUCK do we have a uni named after him??), james stirling, the leader of the pinjarra massacre, and george arthur, the man who devised the ‘black line’ and made it his personal mission to commit genocide in tasmania.
(and fun fact! every single one of them died in the uk, where they were born. every single one of them counted themselves to the bone as british. they actively chose to come to australia to commit these atrocities and then sailed on home. they are not fucking australians. australia today suffers from the consequences that they skipped out on. people whinge about, why are australians pissed off at the british government for something other australians did? because! those fuckers were not australians! they held positions of power given to them by the british government, and came from britain and returned to britain and worked with british interests in mind and they did it out of choice.)

I believe that the shapes of a building should indicate — perhaps display — the usage and way of life of its occupants, and it is therefore likely to be rich and varied in appearance, and its expression is unlikely to be simple.

Michael Wilford has dies. A teacher of mine, years ago. He never got his due. Of course it would have been best if his partner James Stirling had not died so young. The early deaths of Stirling, Aldo Rossi, and Charles Moore took a lot of the momentum out of Post Modernism. The buildings they built and those that Wilford continued to build are infinitely more human, urbane, and simply fun than anything built by the current crop of Starchitects. https://www.architectsjournal.co.uk/news/postmodern-master-michael-wilford-dies-aged-84?eea=dWlBaHFLVGg4QVcrc0ErMXQ4V2doMkxQUFFVYVc3UERXY2I1T0locEZNQT0%3D&utm_source=acs&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=FABS_AJ_EDI_REGS_DAILY_16_03_23&deliveryName=DM125171

Extension to the State Gallery in Stuttgart, 1977 - 1984. By James Stirling and Michael Wilford.
"ln 1977 , next to the classicist building of the old Staatsgalerie, Stirling and Wilford designed a museum of markedly urban, almost monumental character. Their building, the result of a competition, prompted a division in the architectural scene in Germany into two opposing camps: »Modernism versus Post-Modernism<<"

"Social Science Center / Wissenschaftszentrum Berlin", Reichpietschufer 50, 10785, Berlin [1988] _ Architects: James Stirling & Michael Wilford.
"The Berlin Social Science Center was designed by James Stirling and Michael Wilford and was completed in 1988. It is the largest non-housing complex in the IBA (Internationale Bauausstellung) program. Stirling's concept was to create "a friendly, non-bureaucratic place" that looked more like a college than an office building. The implementation of this idea took place in a complex of buildings grouped around the former Imperial Insurance Office by August Busse in 1894. The new buildings reference well-known typologies including a hexagonal campanile, a long building with gallery and street facade, a Greek Stoa and a fortified castle." https://arquitecturaviva.com/publicaciones/av-monografias/james-stirling https://virginia-duran.com/2013/10/24/the-free-architecture-guide-of-berlin/https://wzb.eu/de
