listen up....

my first semester in grad school i took a class called Design by Nature, taught by Ferda Kolatan. so we spoke about chaos theory, patterns, generative models and algorithms in architecture, ants, bees, slime mold, glowing bunnies, and a whole bunch of other stuff that seemed had nothing to do with architecture, but it all does. well as it all has something to do with something.... so that was the point of the class. to open our eyes, as designers, to science.
human upgrades...i think...YES!!!

peace + love + unity + having fun

luckily the rain stopped about two hours before the show celebrating the 25th Anniversary of the (most awesome!) hip-hop documentary, Wild Style.

ColdCRush Brothers and Busy Bee rocked the stage...fab five freddy was a also among the orginals...it was a beautiful steamy night.

introduction + reason

I'll make this short. I am a first generation mexican-american that was born and raised in Houston,TX. Bachelors of architecture and going for my masters (finishing in jan 08). Living in brooklyn, NY for a year now. Been happily married for 8 years. Have a pet cat named Brain.

reason for a blog: It's summer vacation, I have no job, no REAL friends in town, as they all live in my hometown or are far way in other countries right now. I go to sleep around 8am and wake up around 4pm. so basically, i'm bored.

hopefully (beyond this post) i won't bore you too much. and i'll try to be honest in everything i write...sometimes i try to sound witty, cool, or smart, so bear with me as it may take time.
