Lebbeus Woods
The information about him was considerably harder to understand... convoluted language...the stuff that I read anyway. But here goes...
His works are very political, he explores the ideas of the need to dominate and natural beauty being confronted by new technology.
He challenges the idea of some architectural as being merely useful, his works serve no purpose other than to provoke thought and appeal to the eye. He appeals to the forever changing contemporary society.
"the interplay of metrical systems establishing boundaries of materials and energetic forms is the foundation of a universal science (universcience) whose workers include all individuals".
Neomechanical Tower (Upper) Chamber
This is an example of his work.. his perception of a chair suspended. It was ripped off in a Universal Studio's film '12 Monkeys' and he got considerable reimbursion.
