Life Work
Encouraging words from Michael Rotondi's Summer Studio, entitled Life Work:
"Now is a time of faith and fear.
The world you are about to inherit is not the one you had envisioned.
The conflict of generations is upon you, and you are ready.
Things have changed more than you could have imagined and you now have to find comfort in uncertainty.
"Now is a time of faith and fear.
The world you are about to inherit is not the one you had envisioned.
The conflict of generations is upon you, and you are ready.
Things have changed more than you could have imagined and you now have to find comfort in uncertainty.
No problem you are still young enough to consider uncertainty a friend.
Life has become a real adventure again and now,
you have the opportunity to invent your own life.
There are none to inherit.
So [You] this studio will attempt to answer the questions:
“is it possible to invent a project, a life, and a society?”
“is it possible to be a leader without any followers?”
“is it possible to have a long term vision in a short cycle world?”
“is it possible to do good and do well, simultaneously?”
“is it possible to find an architectural equivalent?” "

Dedication
"When I was talking about providing an alternative way of making architecture, I want to address that to the students. What it means is that you don't have to be a slave in a corporate office, a groupie of a celebrity architect because all you need is a piece of paper, a pencil, and the desire to make architecture."

Something ought to be more significant
"For years I was tormented by guilt at having left the country for which I'd fought. I left my friends—some were in prison, others were dead, some managed to escape. I felt I was in debt to them and that I had to repay that debt. And I felt I had a mission. I had to do something important to regain the right to live. It wasn't just a question of music—it was something much more significant." - Iannis Xenakis, composer

Lucid, Splippery Nuance of Sensational Physicality
"I think that art and architecture is an epiphenomenon. And what I mean by that is that it’s really what the name we give to the aesthetic experience you have in built form. It’s not a thing. It’s the assemblage or the experience. And that varies for different people. If that’s right, then the way you trigger that experience in people should be able to happen in many different ways. So the stories are based upon activating a bunch of different sense modalities and situations that create the possibility of having that kind of experience." - Coy Howard
