Beauty


And still she slept in azure-lidded sleep,
In blanched linen, smooth and lavendered,
While he from forth the closet brought a heap
Of candied apple, quince, and plum, and gourd,
With jellies soother than the creamy curd,
And lucent syrops tinct with cinnamon;
Manna and dates in argosy transferred
From Fez; and spiced dainties, every one
From silken Samarcand to cedared Lebanon
.

Urban Outreach Studio



My friend Brady and I have laid the groundwork and methodology for a studio based class that studies informal settlements, ideas of 'homelessness', and the wicked problems associated with them to tease out a better understanding of each of ourselves. We have attempted to open avenues of new research regarding informal settlements, comparative studies with traditional settlements, ecological impacts, and issues related to urbanisms. Tomorrow is our big presentation of our findings to the College. We have just finished a 40 page document that will be published by the CED in some fashion. It may get posted sometime in the near future
