manchester by the sea / cambridgeit was a great outdoor weekend with rach sonu and me going to meet buvi in cambridge. .....saw mit and some crazy/interesting/disappointing starchitecture.....saarinen's mit chapel was way better than i had expected from the images and drawings...and gehry's stata center did not fail to disappoint......although there seemed to be possibilities in which such expression could be dealt in a more engaging way with the site and the campus the final effect was in fact...just origami.....looking more closely we felt that the external play didnt affect the space indoors anyway...and the detailing was nothing better than pathetic.......although i didnt click any images of charles's building right across.....felt that it was like the paper cube before gehry crumpled it....i think the internal space might be interesting from photos i have seen before...but from the outside both buildings seem to compete for nothing.............besides that (and it was fun anyway).....we went to the beeeach!!.....and it was great inspite of freezing cold water and no alcohol permitted....spent the day there and covered up by drinking lots that night.....and we didnt fail to continue the spirit of filmi photos....this one is to charlie's angels!
