I keep reading about the people who are forming the negative thought, what poor bastards. One must be an especially misguided architect to reinforce an idea they seek to destroy. I suppose that this is the greatest slap in the face that one could give onesself. It seems to me that if a project is directed and full in substance, when it draws appropriate relationships it ceases to be ambiguous and it starts to become a good project. I really wonder if it is better to be absurd and become the negative thought rather than the avant-garde, or is it better to be sensible and on the better side of mediocre. Is origional stuff good if its bad origional stuff? Should we pioneer bad stuff as well as good stuff for the sake of the profession. If we're supposed to, then I refuse. Someone else can do it. Will we ever come to a time when we have no avant-garde and no negative thought? Or would this be counter-productive? If we find a valid, perfected logic for designing inhabitats should we abandon this in favor of the avant-garde?
I don't want to contradict my professors sometimes, but I feel that sometimes I have to go a bad route to learn a good lesson, if a project is mine, and I don't feel the necessity to design a certain way, shouldn't I have the right to respectfully disagree with my professor. without penalization during grading. If its a well-contrived solution and well-analysed shouldn't it stand even though I might have supplanted the professors steps with my own? How are we supposed to be avant-garde in this environment?
