Re: paris

Here's my piece from Wkly Standard '09 describing how recursion is fundamental to gothic architecture at Saint Denis etc. Can't tell you how bitterly academics loathe this sort of cross-boundary work--but no mind that's any good fits in their tupperware boxes.

(Curse of my life; but at least it's funny.)

• The talking-city stream has an "action item" after each piece (a gallery opening nxt week; "remind you?"; a take-out pizza place; "order something?"; Bk review: "buy it"; concert: "tickets"; party; "tell yr friends?"). A question you asked John Brockman about proposed software--why do I want to be in this virtual world? Why do I want to go there? When you turn away fro this city-stream, you feel like yr missing something.

• Software to be built by 2 people (one is a first-rate local freelancer). I have a perfect editoress in mind: Yale sr, worked at Vogue last summer, runs her own campus mag, art major, completely connected, v small goodlooking blonde.

Want some bullets?

give me link to your piece

Which piece? My mail continued conversation about "talking city" stream app-- in hopes of convincing you it's worth talking about-- (Sent you a piece last wk about recursion as basis of medieval arch.)
