 In 1976 Michaels said, "While others are attempting to break the language barrier of Dolphinese by studying the dolphins in holding tanks, our goal will be to exchange the information, energy, and mythologies of our cultures." |
From Douglas Palladino,
I have a friend who sends me quotes from time to time and I have a file in
which I save them when one strikes me or I come across something
I like. My friend just set me a Corb quote,
Media |
"I prefer drawing to talking.
Drawing is faster, and leaves less room for lies."
-- Le Corbusier
I was just sticking it in the file when I remembered that I used to send them to Doug tillone day he wrote back ,
"ENOUGH WITH THE RANTING OF A BUNCH OF OLD DEAD GUYS SEND ME SOME NEW IDEAS!!"
A couple of weeks later he "scored some good ink" with an interview and a long article about Doug and Ant Farm and sent it to me. As a joke I lifted the following from the article and sent it back to him. I just found it in my file as I was adding Corb's thought.
Its classic Doug the quote machine. I just thought with all the words you've read in the last few days a few of his own would be appropriate.
"Between concept and construction exists a fluid world... new architectural ideas weave thru a complex landscape of money and media, culture and fame, technology and creativity en route to the Future....Ideas, like humans require a "gestation period" along the road to reality,... this concept-incubation phase may take many months or many decades depending on the complexity of the idea..."
