This was a pleasant surprise. Back in 2006, I submitted my Genotower to the first evolo competition, where it didn’t place. However, it was published in their book and now has been showcased as “Special Mention” on their new and improved website.

I’m not too thrilled that the uncompressed, hi-res boards are up on the net for all to download and misuse, but I suppose it’s been long enough. 🙂
This is a great sculpture. It is not architecture or any form of a built structure that a human could inhabit. This becomes the problem of students. They get so driven by computer and scripting; that they forget what architecture is really about.
Chris, are you like 90 years old?
NIcholas, are you like 2 years old?

congrats on a deserved but late acknowledgment.
how do you feel about their revisionist history ?
it originally doesn’t place and then years later they give the project a “special mention?”

Hey, I’m glad it got recognized. And published. 🙂
