My name is James Edward Lamb III and I am a Senior in Architecture at Louisiana Tech University.
This blog is an assignment
So, I was in class today and the proffessor read this quote, "The architect should be equipped with knowledge of many branches of study and varied kinds of learning, for it is by the architect's judgment that work done by the other arts is put to test." -- from Vitruvius, The Ten Books on Architecture, (New York: Dover Publications Inc., 1960)
It got me to thinking. I'm not just a student of architecture. I'm a student of art as a whole. Because to be an architect is to be a specialist in everything remotely pertinate to your design. So In addition to whatever posts I make pertaining to architecture and my studio projects, I will probably review movies, games, books, furniture, plays, and anything else I can get my hands (or my eyes) on.
