Wrathofgnon ❤ Architect Maher

Wow thank you!!! Architect Maher is the best building Architect alive today. He is the living heir of Hassan Fathy

*Where I agree with Ettore Maria Mazzola:* I love Ettore Maria Mazzola and the way he thinks in terms of urban planning and architectural design which should serve the purposes of comfort, both physical and psychological as well as emotional. There are universal standards of beauty deriving only from tradition, for _only_ in the classical styles of the past - that is *all that existed **_before_** the advent of modernism* - lay the rules and the processes necessary in order to create a perfectly harmonious and livable urban environment. *Where I disagree with Ettore Maria Mazzola:* the only "climate change" we have is caused by an elite and not by human activity or the building we have. Watch, for example, every video of fires aftermaths shot by a drone and you will notice something odd: clean lines. Whenever you have precise lines between perfectly kept properties with green grass and completely incinerated areas, you know there are *directed energy weapons* involved. There's no other way around it. Water, wet water and firefighting foam will not extinguish fire while maintaining clean straight lines bordering properties that, for "unexplainable" reasons, have not been touched by the flames in any way whatsoever (to the point of still having green grass and perfectly kept trees). For "unexplainable" I mean _unexplainable in scientific terms based on how fire works in nature._ The concrete explanation is to be found in *DEW: Directed Energy Weapons.* Also, regular fire doesn't reach the levels of heat necessary to melt ceramic or metal. To give an idea, a typical orange flame might reach around 1,100°C. A high-powered laser used in directed energy weapons can generate heat exceeding 10,000°C, depending on the technology and power source. Ceramic will begin the process of burning and melting at temperatures above 2,000°C while the melting point of Carbon steel, depending on the amounts of the different metals composing it, is at a minimum of 1425 °C to a maximum of 1540°C. Now, in order to supply enough heat for large metal bodies and objects to melt (metals are good conductors of heat) there must be enough supply of energy that's capable of sending and sustaining the same heat levels found at melting point and even above it, depending on the atmospheric temperature. This is key to understand what's behind these directed energy lasers purposely causing fires. The motives behind this evil seem to be correlated to the plan of concentrating the population into the large and degraded urban area for the sake of land repossession in rural areas, on one hand, and because it's easier to control the masses if you keep them confined within certain limits rather than having them dispersed throughout vast lands. Of course there is also a financial scheme involving insurance companies, banks and billions of dollars but I don't think I need to explain what is rather obvious. Whether or not a person rejects such explanations, it remains a matter of personal opinion. What remains undeniably true is instead the scientific evidence that these fires are not the usual fires produced by the usual orange flames. And, in this matter, personal opinion is completely irrelevant. Same thing can be said about *extreme precipitations* which are caused by *cloud seeding done with chemtrails.* In one definition it's called *WEATHER MODIFICATION.* These are simple facts that are out in the open. What they will never tell us is _what_ they use them for and _how_ they use them. But it doesn't really matter since on the *US government website* one can still read through the documents of a program called *PROJECT POPEYE.* Here's its opening page: *274. Memorandum From the Deputy Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs (Kohler) to Secretary of State Rusk* *Washington, January 13, 1967.* *SUBJECT* • *Weather Modification in North Vietnam and Laos (Project Popeye)* *Proposal* *1. The Department of Defense has requested our approval to initiate the operational phase of Project Popeye in selected areas (map at clip)2 along the infiltration routes in North Vietnam and southern Laos. The objective of the program is to produce sufficient rainfall along these lines of communication to interdict or at least interfere with truck traffic between North and South Vietnam. Recently improved cloud seeding techniques would be applied on a sustained basis, in a non-publicized effort to induce continued rainfall through the months of the normal dry season.* This is what we're talking about.

Good luck and success to all

The domes look like coconuts. 🥥

Great talk! As an urban planning master's student, Ettore is a real role model. I hope my designs, plans and research can approximate his complete approach to design.

Interesting talk thank you.

Just great talk - coming to this late Robyn - but heard you at HES event yesterday at Stirling and your talk there about lime renders left me wanting more ! thank you.

Professor Wilson-Jones is an exciting and witty intellectual. I've had the privilege of listening to him in another of his lectures, which was equally fascinating: his descriptive architectural assessments of the Pantheon are thought-provoking. He is a fascinating speaker; listening to him has captured my interest in Roman architecture! Bravo!

ok . its not rem koolhaas in hamburgs its herzog and demeuron and this one really fits well unto the building beneath..

Thank you so much.. beautifully presented

To Samuel"s comments on how Warsaw could afford to rebuild after WWII ... MMT Modern Monetary Theory or as John Maynard Keynes said "Anything We Can Do, We Can Afford."

Grazie!

He shouldn’t have been so rushed.

Um, creaky, um, commentary.

Great presentation, I hope traditional architecture makes a big comeback. I hope never to live in a modernist architecture again. It feels soulless and looks ugly.

Excellent. Samuel's thoughts on vernacular where great to hear.

This presentation should not be a critique about modernity, but about mediocrity. I see plenty of sameness with traditional architecture. The "traditionalists" do not own the idea of placemaking.

Thanks for sharing. Very good. Kind regards Niall O'Connell Dundalk Irelande 21.13pm. Irelande time.

If you want to understand the trick of “civil” engineering you have to look at their data. All their models are based on data from three methods of action: load a beam in the middle and measure the forces until it breaks. Load a beam but fix the corners and measure the forces to see if the corners or beam break first…. Extrapolate/ Method two: take a chunk of concrete and abuse it in different ways and then measure the forces to crush it…. Extrapolate.. Method dumb: take a material put it in between two hot plates and measure the resistance… extrapolate.. Never is the building performance of the whole structure or labor considered:

The professional practice of architecture rejected me as well, for suggesting humbly that we judge building methods based on the experience of the laborer, and the performance of the structure thru time.

This. Short lecture is the most important event in architecture and trad building since de’lorme published his books.

Thank you for the excellent presentation Mr. Weatherill - your approach to placemaking and deep respect for local vernacular architecture should be a model for others to aspire to. It seems so simple in principle - to simply look around at the existing patterns and use them to inform the design of the project, infusing them with a knowledge of placemaking to create a result to which nothing need be added, and nothing removed. It represents in one project the slow historical building up of a local Architecture which is not only Human in it's execution, but is logically defensible in it's detailing and grounded in the Tradition of the place. This is certainly not the short-attention-span slop which forms the core of the 'creeping crud' quickly destroying the countryside - this is long-attention-span Architecture which dignifies both the Architect, and those future residents with the mind to see and understand it. Kudos.

Absolutely loved this. So much technical detail rather than unsubstantiated principals or eye-roll platitudes. Re. double hung windows, Tutton M. WINDOWS 2007 P. 16 reckons they're invented 1690s in Lond. (Don't actually own this book but read it a while ago and made scratchy notes.) Would be great if you could publish on this talk, would love to add to the reference library!

The great irony of the modern movement is its megalomaniacal impulse to deny the individual, indeed, the personal. At root it spring from the same impulse of socialism/Marxism: to suppress the individual and their choices and objectives. Everyone wants to be Plato's 'philosopher king'. It is a hateful philosophy and has produced hateful inhuman results. I've just read Rookmaaker's Modern Art and the Death of a Culture, which traces the degradation of the human in denial of a spiritual depth that is primordially personal, not impersonal, mind, not matter, and love, not haughty indifference . There are some lectures of his at Hans Rookmaaker: The Post-Christian World: Reality, the meaning crisis. (KZbin)

What a fascinating talk and a wonderful speaker! Thanks for sharing it. I learned so much. Off to look for wall hangings now...

Thank you! What a gem of presentation. This is a good start for anyone who is interested in the origins of western architecture. The Pantheon is both one of most beautiful buildings of Imperial Rome and probably the most sustainable building in Europe! Being 2,000 years old...(1,900).

I don’t like people who talk about building practice without mastering building labor first

A lovely and relevant philosophical approach to building. Thank you all.

Thank you for this. Fascinating
