Blobism describes a movement in architecture in which buildings have an organic, amoeba-shaped, building form. With the modern capability of technology to supply entirely 'artificial' complex substances, with unique performance characteristics, the range of possible design forms has grown considerably. Architecture radicals, such as Archigram in the 1960s, Buckminster Fuller and the deconstructivists, began to design unusual, inflatable and 'plastic' buildings that exploited this potential, and sometimes were even beyond the structural possibilities of the time.
 
Richard Buckminster Fuller (1895 - 1983), who popularised the ‘Geodesic Dome’ through his work, was one of the first modern Western thinkers to connect architecture to ecology and the environment, describing describe the modern world as ‘an ecosystem to be reconciled with nature.’ Geodesic constructions partly appealed to Fuller as a metaphor for the principles of a systemic and energy efficient worldview; it was extremely strong for its weight and its ‘omnitriangulated’ surface provided an inherently stable structure, and because a sphere encloses the greatest volume for the least surface area. Fuller did not limit himself to one field but worked as a 'comprehensive anticipatory design scientist' to solve global problems surrounding housing, shelter, transportation, education, energy, ecological destruction, and poverty.

My 2-hour set from Architextures on October 6, 2016

STEINTOLOGY @ Architextures

This set was a REALLY big deal for me. Architextures has become one of my absolute favourite places in my life, and it's an absolute honour to have played here!

The sounds captured here are what I've wanted to share with people, because I don't know about elsewhere, but no one plays music like this in Toronto. 

I'm surprised that it turned out as well as it seems to because I had an absolute train wreck of a night leading up to my set! Massive thanks to everyone that supported me in the months of prep going into this, the night leading up to it, and keeping the dance floor moving for 2 hours!!

recorded live at the Architextures weekly at Round in Kensington Market - July 19, 2018.

Jamie Kidd @ Architextures - July 19, 2018

I first heard this song in Thailand when I was getting a tattoo by Mr. Tung and within the 6 hours session we must have heard this track 6 times. When the track to this day, my spirit returns to that day in  Bangkok with Mr Tung. And who doesn't love Manu Chao?

I have never heard a remix of this track (surely there is) and this was an obvious choose as it also has no drums. I was recorded with a metronome so it was easy to start. As I got into this details of the original, I rediscovered my love for the magic in simplicity (which I am working on, promise). 

Reworked, mixed and Mastered at

Francesca is back on OpenLab radio with her last Architextures episode of the year! 
This time inspired by Roy De Forest’s work and the Funk Art movement of the 1960’s, which aimed to rebel against the popular abstract expressionism focusing instead on the absurd, often through irreverent assemblages and blending of pop-culture imagery.
Press play and lay back to San Francisco Psychedelia, Soulful US Jazz, off-the-wall ambient boogie and get down disco from all the four corners of the globe.

Tracklist:
Maze - Twilight
The Equals - Funky Like A Train
Bill Withers - Railroad Man
Herbie Hancock - Sly
Alain Bellaiche - Sea Fluorescent
Gene Harris & The Three Sounds - Book of Slim
The Durutti Column - Katherine
Mystic Moods Orchestra - Cosmic Sea
Cymande - Promised Heights
Greg Foat - Nikinakinu
Warp 9 - Light Years Away (Dub)
