Amazing
The piece that was redone (second reiteration at 3:09) he says it is made of an "unknown material". What? He doesn't know? Or he doesn't want to tell us what it is? He interrupts the discussion and quickly walks away to the next piece. The mystery continues.
My guess is that he doesn’t want the conversation to devolve into processes or the relationship between form making and material qualities. Rather, he is looking for a relationship between form and its material representation
@@bv32ification I don't know how to respond to that. It's not like he would be bringing the conversation down to a lower level or giving away some secret method. Or maybe he is protecting a proprietary process that only a few alchemists and Thom know.
This man is a genius
Lol Steve job look alike
Maybe. Steve only looked a bit like Thom when he in the last period of his life, as his health was deteriorating. Interestingly, both men are (were) known to be supremely self-confident. There are stories about both of them being loudly confrontational. In the case of Mayne, shouting at a client who couldn't keep up with his genius.
Wtf i dun even understand all of this?!
it's art. it's okay if you don't understand it, and it's not for everyone. i used not to as well. you only see the beauty once you start doing it yourself.
When a person is required to takes only humanities classes in college (architecture degree in US is all combination english, history& art classes in college to graduate. Highschool kid heading to JC takes more STEM classes) and pontificates as much as Nobel Prize winner, how do you respond to that? Dilusion.
what the hell he is talking about
Mr. Mayne, your work is lovely, but you are exhausting. It might help to explain less.
You'll still get the credit you want.
Boastful humanities major. Very quick to being political and petty with co workers.
Many confused people throw around false equivalency by comparing Pritzker prize to Nobel prize. Pritzker prize is just a vanity project and is a branding effort for wealthy Pritzker family name. Moreover, the prize committee is composed of mostly random buffoons who have no knowledge of building design and hence the prizes has no credibility. Its akin to trash collector in Nobel award selection committee making award for physics. Architecture is a more a humanities degree than anything. Almost all top tier us college or university do not offer this degree for a reason. Harvard graduate design school has lot of people from second, third rate undergraduate schools because most kid smart enough to get into top tier undergrad schools are too intelligent to get into this non technical profession.
bro im an architect and you trashing this profession for real? it just shows your ignorance and naivity more than anything. show some respect for people who design buildings and spaces for the city you live in.
