Icing the body electric

Yes we seems fairly in accord over Gehry.
Of course you always have to admire someone who has carved a career... but...
I just read your posts here and it suddenly came to me that Gehry reminded me of those SITE people... Wines? The guy with the beard? I met them in London and was talking to them about the BEST stores they did to which their reply was basically that no one really cared what they did beyond its publicity value because the things were pulled down and rebuilt every 18 months.
Can I assume you are or at least were an architect?
As a small scale developer, I come at the whole thing from a sometimes diametrically opposed direction, but as a designer I do like to have some input into the buildings, although knowing how impossible it is to do good work with someone staring over your shoulder, I try to at least initially limit this to handing over a pile of maybe 50 photographs of elements I think might be relevent and leaving the architect to use them in the way of Brian Eno's Oblique Strategies cards... when you encounter a dilemna, select a card and follow its instructions as a way of manouvering round the problem.
